What would happen if germany had started developing tanks at the outbreak of the war insted of 1916 and tanks were used by the German earlier and more numerously?

One problem I have is I don't know the size of parthia at this time period(and the surrounding countries) so it is hard for me to see threats to parthia itself

The huns were not a confederation. They are simply multiple tribes and clans. They stayed this way for a long time. It was only unified under attila. Also since the huns are nomadic they do not stay in one place. Also nomads general stated near civilizations to trade (and maybe some raiding) so...

Chariots are inaccurate. You are more likely to smash into a wall in a chariot or slip of then riding on horseback. There was no advantages to horse chariots over horse riding.

Note: this is my very first TL expect many mistakes in this. Feed back is welcome. March 17 161 CE. 20 km north of the parthian empire. TÖMÖRBAATAR, leader of the warriors of tengri, rode through the plains of central Asia raiding individual city states that still stood, his army waiting for...

If you mean Greek paganism they probably are still around just with not enough followers to influence anything. Religion seems to have a habit of going by its old ways no matter what science proves.

Is there a map of parthia and the surrounding region before the war of 161-166? My usual sources (Wikipedia) does not seem to have it.

Now I understand the situation of the Arabic tribes. I really need to nail in that butterflies will happen all the time. People fall off their horses, survive a plague, says something to cause the rise of Assyria etc.

Well that was a mistake by me. Mohammed's great great great whatever probably would have been killed. :p I still have to get my head around this whole butterfly thing.

So everything about islam forming or becoming a power was possible only because of the tribal system. Even if it did manage to form it would most likely be disorganized and would eventually die out due to it not having enough followers to make it spread or to even keep it stable.

So pretty much in TTL it would just a unpopular cult/ heresy.

OK how about parthia (they had part of Arabia at one time so if they survived they could have went after the rest. So let's say full conquest around 350 AD, and I do not know how it would last (Oh and the parthians were zoroastrian) but let's say Arabia is still in control of parthia as ether...

Probably. Stalin likes communism to be everywhere.

If Arabia was fully conquered or completely united before Muhammad, would islam still form and become the green blob*? *the caliphate

The Judean religion will survive. But what I ment not in Madagascar in south Africa. Vinland failed to survive even without tropical diseases. The people in Madagascar will likely be wiped out. However some of the population would survive in south/east Africa and spread their religion. Also...

Probably most of North Africa. But that would be BIG because then the mongols (or what ever khanate successes them) have a new way into europe Gibraltar. Then Islam would be unified and that would be bad for anyone in europe.

Sounds like ASB... however if you remove the withdraw from Indonesia then you could see the us not joining directly due to the population not wanting war and then japan would have Australia AND maybe even india? But europe would be red unless germany does somthing big out of this and hardly any...

Well they might die out however the jaws might just spread their religion in Africa and THAT would be an interesting TL...

ummm I think you fail to see the point and that is if the mongols took over Egypt... no more north Africa. But I belive the mongols were sunni at this time? Or at least the ilkanate was. So this would unity the Muslims which might actually be better in the long run for the islamics. New...

Thanks for the help bro.:)
