    By becoming Christian, it becomes part of Christendom, and has to play by Christendom's rules, which includes such things as hierarchical power.

    See: here. Would the C21st be that of Japan?
  6. What would you call a much bigger Dreadnought

    My first thought also was Leviathan.
  7. AH Challenge: Surviving Ancien Régime

    The Cornwallis setting from GURPS Alternate Earths 2 diverges in 1776, when Turgot puts an abrupt end to French meddling in the American Revolutionary Wars. The American Revolution fails, and the English and French monarchies take the opportunity to consolidate their positions. French...
  8. AH Challenge: Swiss Empire

    I'm an international relations undergraduate who had a seminar on this very topic this morning. It just doesn't work. Look at England and France vs. Germany in WW1. The German populace actively supported war, IIRC. And the Fashoda incident between France and England was averted because of...
  9. AH Challenge: Swiss Empire

    I'm afraid that the Democratic Peace Thesis is flawed, at best.
  10. WI Charles James Fox had been American?

    If you want him to be born American, you could have his father and mother elope to the US to escape those family members who were unhappy with the eighteen year age gap. I'm not sure of the extent to which an American-born Fox would resemble that of OTL, however.

    What do you mean, your Latin is 'rusty'? Whereabouts are you based?
  17. TIMELINE CONTEST: Sign-up & Planning Thread

    There's probably about a greater than 50% chance that if they are born the same gender, they'll end up with the same name to the person who was born in OTL.
  18. Decades of Darkness

    Sweet Zombie Jebus, that's 10 NaNoWriMo's.
  19. These Hills Sing of Saxon Kings

    That might be fun, actually. If you are thinking to cast France as alt-Habsburgs, then why not have some Protestant-types causing trouble in one of the outlying regions? This threat could be what's needed to centralise the French kingdom. *throws down a smoke grenade and escapes in the...
