  1. Soviet Afghanistan: 1984

    Afghanistan is a tribal country with each tribe rules by its elders and owning a region or so,demonstrate to them the power of the fully mobilised red army and threaten every tribe with extinction if they dont cooperate and the insurgence wont have anywhere to run or hide,the tribes themselfes...

    Sure,they cant do any worse of a job,im not racist,all i care is that the person is capable enough to do the job,we can also deport our government to them as a sign of thanks.
  4. Development of Africa and Asia If Europe Still Held Colonies

    Its also twice the size and population of my country,it can be riches simply off of numbers,and my country was also wreacked by communism and a war not to long ago,id expect them to be richer. Still a few diamonds in a bucket of garbage dont change the fact its a bucket of garbage. We could...
  5. Austrian Hapsburg doesn't rule Hungary after Mohac 1526

    We do have to concede that his exact method of dying did cause a lot of nobles to facepalm at their fate. Im still firmly convinced that if the moron lives longer he will cause more harm than good,how many armies can hungary afford to lose? The turks arent going to get any less competent but...
  6. WI Supreme Court legalizes Polygamy

    When i said it was possible i meant with fully grown adults,not brainwashes cults,how are we going to stop responsible adults from doing what they wish?
  7. AHC: Phillipines with similar standard of prosperity as South Korea

    No you missed my point,just because it says republic on a tin can doesnt make it so,rome was just the emperor attached to a "retirement home". The senate could never hope to get rid of the emperor and be a proper republic(yet still conquered and ran an empire spanning a continent) just as the...
  8. WI: Prussia annexes Northern France after the Franco Prussian War?

    Maybe it would work if ASB gave bismarck a smacking stick that turns everyone it hits into a full blooded prussian,then we could have bismarck traveling across europe expanding the german reich 1 smacked head at a time.
  9. Soviet Afghanistan: 1984

    Why would the soviets do that? They were profiting from the indian-pakistan split by doing bussiness with both sides. India and pakistan are basically a closed system of mutual suspition and attention,the soviets are better off leaving them to focus on each other and effectively leave their...
  10. Soviet Afghanistan: 1984

    Hard to say,apart from afghanistan everyone else was settled,iran is fanatical,pakistan had nukes,not many options.
  11. AHC: Phillipines with similar standard of prosperity as South Korea

    Hitler was technically a chancellor as the roman emperor techincally had a senat,im keeping to facts on the ground and not legal formalities.
  12. Soviet Afghanistan: 1984

    If they bothered to literally uproot the country i dont see why not. And not really a blitzkrieg,more like a sweep. Blitzkrieg tries to aim for weakspots to exploit and force the enemy to surrender,this would literally dig them out and crush them along the whole lenght of the country with no...
  13. AHC: Phillipines with similar standard of prosperity as South Korea

    If you mean by endless stagnaton impoverishing millions and waiting for any competent foreign power to smash them then sure...
  14. Soviet Afghanistan: 1984

    Easiest way is to mobilise the full force of the red army to do the job and literally steamroll afghanistan going from town to town and village to village rooting out any and all oposition. The taliban would be crushed very quickly with no way to attacking behind secured front lines which would...
  15. Soviet Afghanistan: 1984

    No mujahadeen in afghanistan would weaken islamic extremism. Al Quaeeda would have 1 less safe haven and the US would avoid 1 great clusterfuck,maybe without afghanistan they would actually be forced deal with the saudis instead of distracting the population with the endless side shows(OBL was...
  16. Development of Africa and Asia If Europe Still Held Colonies

    No other way to keep them as colonies. No sane people are going to willingly say:"please opress us and run our lives,we want you to rule us". Im meerly sticking to the suposed scenario of europe keeping its colonies.
  17. Development of Africa and Asia If Europe Still Held Colonies

    We can always keep the concept of nationalism away from them. If north korea proved anything its easy to brainwash loads of people into believing anything,and the colonial subjects wouldnt be nearly as misserable as the north koreans.
  18. WI: The Hungarian Revolution of 1848 succeeds?

    I dont think it can unless the habsburgs are somehow distracted,the weight of numbers alone means the hungarians are doomed because their ambitious literally pose a threat to everyone else besides themselfes,the croats,slovaks,austrians,serbs,bohemians,slovenes all have nothing to gain from a...
  19. Development of Africa and Asia If Europe Still Held Colonies

    Leopolds lunacy is hardly a roadmap. The scenario takes into account the idea that the europeans are rational administrators instead of dellusional megalomaniacs.
  20. AHC: Phillipines with similar standard of prosperity as South Korea

    But you need a thousand for a corrupt republic with no real direction to go anywhere. At least with the strongman the leader has to be competent enough to have even got his job let alone maintain it.
