    TLIAF: Many A Hero Untold

    Right, should probably post my thoughts before too much time passes. Absolutely wonderful to read through. Not only does the transition from Johnson to O'Scuffy make a lot of sense, the detail given to the horrors of the regime is great (in the pejorative sense) and leaves you with a slight...

    That would not work. A special election would be held most likely.

    This is sort of 30's punk in general, right? If so I would suggest warlords. ALL OF THEM.

    Europa Universalis IV - 13 August 2013

    Was attempting to create an Israeli Empire in Ironman (*Bibi intensifies*) without attempting to overrun Palestine because banter. Conquered Jordan and Lebanon before wanting to muscle in on Syria. Decided to go into the Sauds first because Syria was allied with Egypt, but then I found out that...

    AHC/WI: Paisley moderates in 1972

    I have to wonder - even if the DUP is wounded in the powersharing election and 1974, would it still not hold at least a little power? One of the mroe interesting butterflies would be the UUUC. Would it still be formed - and if so how different a beast would it be?

    AHC/WI: Paisley moderates in 1972

    The popular history on the Reverend Ian Paisley in Northern Ireland is that he spent thirty odd years as a priest preaching from a gospel of hate/hand me down bible, riling up working class protestants, making himself responsible for an uptick in loyalist violence, participated in the peace...

    If it's ultra-traditionalism you're after in the realm of politics, you'd be hard pressed to find any stranger than the English Mistery. Reactionary in its distilled form, the EM was founded in 1930 by Imperial Fascist League member William Sanderson on the basis of hardline royalism...

    "Hipster" PMs and Presidents Thread

    More a Hipster NI-PM than anything, but I'm wondering if Dehra Parker could work as an Iron Lady style figure in Stormont.

    To some of the strictest (and some would say fruitiest) adherents of fascism, the Afrikaner brand of it is little more than trumped up white supremacy. Indeed, Italian commentators ignore it when listing followers of the movement. This is not unfounded in its intentions - many supporters of...

    I was thinking that. Arab states as well (needless to say Islamism isn't As Much of A Thing TTL. Pan-Arab nationalism, on the other hand...).

    If we wish to dip into the waters of American Fascism, then there is no stranger case than that of Henry Stavros. Coming from a union-heavy Greek family in the south of Texas, Stavros spent much of his childhood volunteering for charity organisations and working to help pay off the debt his...
