  1. AH Challange: George Washington - Totalitarian Despot!

    Here's another idea I've no idea if it's been done before, but here it is if people are interested... The challange here is to make George Washington turn into a more ruthless, dictatorial and "Robespierre-esque" post-revolutionary leader of the USA. He could be reluctantly forced down the...
  2. What would the Soviet Union's relations with the CSA have been like?

    Had the Confederate States of America survived into present day, I wonder what the USSR's relations with them during the cold war with the USA have been like? Would the CSA have become a pro-Moscow regime - despite being almost it's ideological opposite?
  3. Settling Accounts: In At The Death - where next for this ATL??

    Couldn't find a thread on this (please do feel free to merge it into one if it exists), but what do people think of the ending of this book?

Would a coalition led by the still-existant USSR launched a war against Romania to force Ceausescu from Moldova? What would the consequences be for this...
  6. What if Ceausescu didn't fall?

    What would happen if the Romanian dictator, President Nicolai Ceausescu, had succeeded in crushing the revolution that toppled in in OTL? Would he (or his sucessor) still be in power to this day? I wonder if, in order to try and obtain oil wealth and thus prolong his regime, he'd have "done a...
  7. Orwell's 1984 - alternate history?

    As we can now see that things didn't turn out quite the way Orwell predicted in his novel, 1984, I now tend to consider this story to be an alternate history-type story. Do others agree? If so, how did the state of the world envisaged in the 1984 Timeline come about? My guess is that...
