In the early thirties and late forties a social movement called the Technocracy Movement was popular in the US and Canada for a short period of time. Their farthest-reaching proposal was to unite Central and North America into a “technate”, their argument being that the natural boundaries and...

FDR died fairly early into his fourth term, allowing Harry Truman to become President of the United States. Let's say that while FDR's health is still not the best he is able to complete his fourth term and deal with the ending of WWII and the start of the Cold War. What would have FDR done in...

If I am remembering correctly a proposal was made in the 1750's or 1760's in London, but it was refused. I'm curious on how this central government would work out, would it be like Canada's, or just be a mere rubber stamp for London?

In April 1814, with a European coalition occupying Paris, Napoleon Bonaparte was forced to abdicate the French throne. He was sent into exile on Elba, a small Mediterranean island located 260 km (160 miles) south of France and 10 km (6 miles) west of the Italian coastline. Napoleon signed his...

What is the possibility of Roman rump states, former Roman provinces, or nation's based partially on Roman culture being created or surviving in Western Europe during the decline of the Western Roman Empire? I know that their was the Kingdom of Soissons, a rump state in northern Gaul ruled by...

Let's say that the Romans conquer and assimilate Ireland as they did Britain or find a Irish king whom they help unite Ireland under the condition that the Irish kingdom has to pay a small tribute to the Roman government. Fast forward a few centuries in the 400s when the last legions are pulled...

Lets just say that the Soviet Union somehow magically wins the Cold War in the early 90's, the USA either goes comunist/socialist or divides into different states, more African countries enter under the Soviet sphere of influence, and Europe is mostly socialist. Are there any comparisions we...

Lets say sometime during the Napoleonic Wars somehow the French fleet is able to destroy or weaken the Royal Navy enough to invade the UK and he does, with Britain surrendering to the French Empire. Now this question is just about what would the British Isles look like after a Napoleonic...

Hello, I have been thinking about creating a timeline dealing with the lost continent of Zealandia. The timeline would start off around 23 million years ago, with the pod being that the continent does not sink into the ocean somehow (this is ASB, right?) and still exists to this day. Also...

Hello all, I have been recently starting to write my first alternate history story where Hitler dies in WWI, and during the early 1930s the Hohenzollern monarchy gets restored by the German National People's Party (DNVP). The only problem is I'm having a hard time figuring out how it will...

I know that American Civil War alternate histories are over used now these days, but how would a Confederate government and it's departments and military function in the early 20th century?

How would have Berlin looked like in the Greater Germanic Reich during the 1960s-1970s? Would most proposed planned buildings such as the Arch of Triumph, Großer Platz, or the Volkshalle have been completed by then?
