well, the Dungeon technically represents all possible D&D settings and elements at the same time, including 3rd party, like pathfinder.

I hope that they don't mind if I necro my thread if I put a new chapter in it. As for the Pathfinder question...

Especially regarding the classes for the Starks. I will see, what I can come up with. I really need to get working on ASODAD again.

Oh, wow! That's a lot of text. Understandable with this comment limit, though. Still I like your ideas.

I've been thinking about Adolf Hitler as of late and sometimes it seems that he couldn't have been anything but a Führer (and even that he did poorly). He was poor at school, had no intention of following his father's footsteps in customs bureau, didn't have a future in painting and even his...

Technically this is both AHC and a plausibility check, but anyway. The basis of this TL is that in the end Olga Nikolajevna becomes the Grand Duchess/Queen/Empress/Whatever of Finland, but not of Russia. I was thinking that Karl Gustav Emil Mannerheim smuggles her and her siblings away from...

Guess I'll have to be more creative then.

No. Zoroastrianism is monotheistic.

It was mostly the first one, though now I am also curious of the other two options. This was mostly based on an idea of an ATL where one or more of the European polytheistic religions organizes and splits into denominations fighting amongst themselves and I wanted to check the plausibility on that.

Very good points here, but I think the Roman destruction of the druids had more of a political ("you are the enemy") than religious ("your belief is wrong"). And the same goes to Shinto discrimination of Christianity.

When we look at our religious history, there has been a lot of talk about religious percecution. However, there is an impression that all (or almost all) such percecution comes of monotheists percecuting other religions. Frequently these percecuted have also been monotheists. Has there...

In OTL, Carl Gustav Emil Mannerheim was Finnish Baron, an officer the Imperial Russian Army and a loyal supporter of the Romanovs. It is also known that he visited St. Petersburg and vitnessed the February Outbreak. But what if, feeling the heat, Mannerheim decided to take action to...

I admit, this was originally supposed to be an AHC. It's not easy choosing between causes and effects of a TL, if you want to know both. EDIT: Probably should have added the Polish nobility system as well.

Basically, what if, instead of the OTL number of 1-3%, nobility in medieval Europe amounted to 10-12% of the population, ergo the same as in Poland?

No one interested?

Basically, the question is, what would it mean to the Europe, East Slavs and Ottoman Empire, if the Tatars are still united, either through the survival of the Golden Horde or the quick reunification before most of them become smaller Khanate protectorates, throughout the 15th century and...

I have to say, this thread has received far more attention that I could have hoped for. And yet again, it seems that my knowledge of history is woefully inadequate. Still, this has been quite a learning experience, especially considering the true foundations of France's military success and...
