Fl, Interesting points I hadn't considered that you yanks have mid term elections I'd forgotten all about it. I'd say that the Entente would get US government guaranteed loans so they would be a few basic points higher which would most likely mean more Entente equities being disposed of to fund...

WI Woodrow Wilson had suffered his stroke and become incapacitated on the October 1914 instead of the historic 1919. How would this effect the newly started war in Europe? Does Thomas R Marshall assume the presidency? How does this effect the Entente now that the People making the...

I wonder what effect this will have on Prussian- German / Russian relations. Better worse the same if the German russian treaty doesn't lapse then you could find WWI butterflied away as there is no way in hell France will take on Germany and Russia. More please

What if apart from their other activities the Knights Templar saw part of their mission as not only the protection of the pilgrims but also the protection of God's representative on Earth in the Pontiff. How does this effect the history of Europe and the rest of the world with the Templars...

As to why the Netherlands had a pro CP bias dates back to the Boer wars in SA. Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands was quite bitter at the loss of dutch possessions and even sent a ship to evacuate the Boer leader. Even after the Great War she still refused to turn him and kaiser Bill over to...

Yes a challenge that had probably been done before. Make the USA the red menace by 1940 using a pod no earlier then 1914. I'd prefer it to be plausible but I'll accept a bit of handwavium if necessary. There is reason to my madness well in my mind anyhow.:p

There is one problem with this C and the problem is Wilson only wone his second term by 7000 votes. There is no way in hell he'd ask congress for a DoW where there was no real chance of victory. Lets look at the new central Powers position. Russia, German and Italy plus possibly Romania...

What If Woodrow Wilson had suffered a massive stroke three years early so instead of being incapacitated on 2nd October 1919 it happens in 1916 before his second term and before the presidential election? What happens now? Does he still win a second term? Does he get forced to resign and...

It delays US entry into the European theater by at most 6 months. This depend very much that every thing goes as in OTL. Now were FDR to have a stroke on hearing that the Nazis had declared peace then that might change things a bit. Henry Wallace becomes president the SU practically...

Didn't you know about Taiwan DMA. Rumor has it that they and the Israelis got most of SA's nukes when the nationalists lost power. The idea was that they didn't want the blacks to have nukes. Oh DMA taiwan also has the same type of harpoon and tomahawk cruise missiles that the Yanks use...

There were French plans for exactly that. The only difference being that GB would have remains neutral for a little while and when Germany crossed the border to battle France join the war on the entente side. The British was leaning on Belgium that if France did cross their border to do...

The most implausible part is the US openly supporting a dictatorial aggressor. Remove this and the USSR has no hope of doing this. You could have Russia invading Poland in 1939 after all the unpleasantness of the German build up. Then of course Germany would invade to "help" the poles...

Depends when this happens. nazis win WWII and not many jews survive then no Israel. Germans win WWI no Belfour agreement no Israel Jews remain the same as under the Ottomans. Go back further Moses leads the Jews west or south from Egypt and form a colony in Africa some where - No Israel...

Still wouldn't happen. The luftwaffe would simply shoot down any plane flying over the baltic heading for Poland. An airlift won't do squat. Not to mention that these aircraft would have to overfly several neutral countries without permission which is another no no. If France and GB don't...

GW, If Finland has conquered Karelia then Arkangelski can be used by the US to assist the socialists without coming into direct confrontation with Germany and Finland. The US seems to be over extending itself here if they get into a shooting war with Germany that port will be closed by German...

GW I edited a lot of this out but this part really needs an edit I think. There is no way any of the foreign dead would be buried in a Moscow Cemetery. The bodies would be returned to the nation from which they came regardless of how difficult it might be. National pride from both the...

Seeing Germany had refused to purchase Goeben for scrap value in 72? I doubt they pay more for Graf Spee. A pity really having battlecruisers of both wars would be a nice naval museum.:rolleyes:

GW, Nice updates but I think you might be a bit optimistic with the USA ecomomy. They lent a heap of money to GB and the Entente during WWI. I doubt they received any back. Did the same in WWII ditto. And now the Spanish socialists. Even if all the money was spent on US products it...

This is not actually right about yanks being squeenish. It is just that Isolationist USA didn't want to fight any foreign wars. In the US civil war the losses the union forces took were percentage wise the highest in the history of warfare in a per capita sense. Now lets look at the...

The Germans had the second biggest navy in the world pre WWI so yes they would be able to enforce this demand. Now that said It is more likely that Germany will cut a deal with GB over the colonies and remember Germany still had an effective army in Africa in november 1918 and they only laid...
