  1. Miscellaneous <1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    Perfect thread. Considering going back into map making. What do people think are some of The most interesting potential PoDs before the 2nd Balkan war but after the Franco-Prussian war? I’m wondering about a PoD in this era and what impacts on world politics and history it would have...
  2. American Tsar Bomb?

    With the right funding, yes, though American bombing funding was more focussed on precise attacks than the sheer scale of the bombs in question, which is why the icbm was put forward so much. It’s be much easier to built a missile with several smaller warheads, plus it does more damage to a target
  3. Red Sun Rising: The Reverse-Russo-Japanese War

    Hmm, after a certain someone who i won't name has been liking stuff on here, I might consider giving this project of mine a good old fashioned revival ;). Pick things up where htey were, or reboot altogether?
  4. A Guide, Resource, and Repository of Could-have-been Ideologies for your Alternate History

    Obscure niche ideologies are lately a meme at the moment, but I can’t help be fascinated by speculating what it would be like.
  5. Map Thread XIX

    That's not Russia in northern Canada, that's Rupert's Land, another British sattelite. Similar colour. The British also took Hokkaido from the Japanese.
  6. Map Thread XIX

    The result of a Vic 2 game as Italy, as of January 1st 1900.
  7. AHC: Italy as a major power.

    Very true, though it’s also because Germany arrived late to the colonial game thanks to Bismarck and so only got table scraps in comparison during the Scramble. Italy wasn’t too different, as they only went for Libya because Tunisia was already taken by the French. Not getting screwed over later...
  8. AHC: Italy as a major power.

    Playing some Victoria 2 is usually fun as an Italian nation getting to form them and seeing how powerful you can make them on the global stage. Likely the appeal to many of us with scenarios with this is Italy being a balkanised nation throughout the Middle Ages and a playground for other powers...

    Anything alright?
  10. A Guide, Resource, and Repository of Could-have-been Ideologies for your Alternate History

    From what I remember, Hoppeans are ancaps and/or minarchists with *extremely* conservative cultural viewpoints, or a more radical version of palaeolibertarians, just as ancaps are a radical version of regular libertarians. Hence they’re sometimes considered “anarchofascists with laissez fairre...
  11. What would it take for a modern Mongol Empire?

    We all know who could form that kind of state, right? Grigory Semyonov, that’s who! Though that’s more post-1900. For earlier eras, the aforementioned successful Golden Horde is the closest, and that’s more of a mongolised Russia on steroids, given it owns Central Asia and the Caucasus from...
  12. What would it take for a modern Mongol Empire?

    Previous post had good points, and basically the opposite of what I was thinking of. My ideas were that either; The Khwarezmian Governor doesn’t raid the caravan (or the king hands over the Governor for being a jerkass) that led to that disastrous war, and therefore Genghis continues his...
  13. Request Maps/Flags/Coats of Arms/Heraldry here, II

    Hmm, makes sense. Apparently he’s also looking for artists on another website so maybe they might help. I am thinking of asking someone on here for some coats of arms or flags for my own fantasy nations or organisations, but I’ll see.
  14. Request Maps/Flags/Coats of Arms/Heraldry here, II

    Hi, I am asking for a friend here if anyone would be interested in doing a map for his fantasy series, which has been published as a book recently, as he hopes it will add some authenticity to it as a work. i did a very basic draft of it in the past here; Basically, the green nation is the...

    I’m guessing by this, you mean they both moderated their views in emotional reaction to the regimes that exiled them, and to get more PR from others?
  16. A Guide, Resource, and Repository of Could-have-been Ideologies for your Alternate History

    Well, I could tell you about the Zurembourg trials and all that, but I mentioned more about them on the Monsieur Z topic I made (original about AHH but it became about Monsieur because I was on his discord). Sovereign Order was cool but it splintered as there was too much debate between non-Nazi...

    Well, perhaps for the Hoppean ancap varieties, though according to some /Pol/ threads I observed, they consider themselves superior to both ancaps and natsocs (ie vanilla Nazis). They aren’t that popular even there though. Even then, Hoppean ancaps and anarchofascists still reject using the...

    As far as I can tell, /Pol/ and the Ancapistan Facebook page. I’m sure they were meant to be ironic but a minority of /Pol/ seriously supports it. Not quite because the regime would be like this by design, with no taxes and all that.
  19. A Guide, Resource, and Repository of Could-have-been Ideologies for your Alternate History

    National Capitalists. Totalitarian, extreme cultural right, but love laissez fairre economics. Think Hitler and Pinochet raising a kid. Alternatively, people who went up the libertarian-fascist pipeline but kept some string attached to their feet. Apparently the dictatorship part is meant to be...

    Threadmarks: Chinese Front (October 1938-May 1939)

    Sergei Ivanov, The Fall of a Dynasty As Russian forces pushed further into Chinese territory, it was clear even among the army that Wrangel’s great army for Russian restoration was overreaching itself. Even while larger in landmass than China and with a great population, Russia still didn’t...
