My vote's for Eternal Persia, though I also am sad to see that Zoroastrianism will inevitably be thrown aside.:(

As I recall, there're massive problems with bringing CK to EU. According to what I hear, everything you have a claim to becomes a core, and the whole world declares war on each other. Apparently, they managed to get around that for EU2, but it still persists in EU3. But...but...but...I'm a...

Oh yeah, Crusader Kings! I remember booting that up, after I bought it, EU3, Vicky R, and HoI2. And you know what? Screw dynasty building, Crusader Kings was terrible! I only played one serious CK game as Sweden (my second main nation after Japan). You know who were my biggest enemies? My...

I always preferred Europa Universalis, myself. Vicky irritated me immensely whenever I tried to play it, to be honest; if you weren't a major power, you'll quickly find yourself too busy fending those that were off to really change your situation. And if you were, and you're not an expert...

That really sums up this whole things, doesn't it? Every time you think it can't possibly get any worse...it does. And I love it. For the love of God, don't give him ideas! Things keep getting worse at that rate, there's really nowhere to go but civil war and the Earth blowing up!

I'd go with Norton on this one.

In 1980, Iraq launched an attack at its neighbor, Iran. Within two years, however, the Iranians had already regained their territory, and were on the offensive. My question is this: what if Iraq had some massive stroke of luck? How much could they have gained from this?

Oops, wrong section. Hang on, let me find out a way to get rid of this...

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is as follows: 1) Create a POD which creates a majority Native American nation in North America. 2) Ensure the survival of said nation to present day (2009). Bonus Objectives A) Nation exists in the territorial boundaries of present-day United...

What would change if there was no Cultural Revolution? Don't you just love it when posts are short and sweet? Particularly when the author has no idea at all what the answer will be?

Actually, this pyramid (and every other one I've heard of, which isn't much) was built on hired labor, from what I've gathered. As for inspiring other pharaohs to build similarly large penis compensations, people have been building big buildings since the dawn of construction. If the Red...

We'd have one less pyramid? Aside from being truly impressive to look at, awe-inspiring to really understand, and as very interesting grave sites, did the pyramids have that much importance? Was the Red Pyramid ever used for any nation-shaking political move, or as cover in some military...

EDIT: Grimm had a better idea than I did, and I shall now go with that.

Never got around to reading Mk. I or II, and I'm pleasantly surprised with Mk. III. I love it; I'm subscribing, and await the next update with glee.:D

Following up on my most recent obsession, we turn to Russia and one particularly interesting figure: the Grand Duke Nicholas Nikolaevich. First cousin once removed of Tzar Nicholas II, from my research he seems to have been a very popular man. During the uprisings of 1905, the Tzar demanded that...

Okay, I read through the TL. I think I can sum in up as something along the lines of "Darkly Awesome!" I'm subscribing to this; I want to see where all this ends up. Excellent job.

Sounds interesting. I'm certainly subscribing; I look forward to seeing where this goes.:D

That's exactly that I was thinking when I saw this thread, the GLA. Al-Qaeda is not the GLA. If they somehow could pull off simultaneous attacks on the US and China in equally important locations, then China would stomp on them as soon as possible.

Have I been mistaken all these years, or were the Beatles (and by extent the British Invasion) not largely responsible for the rise in Eastern spiritualism over here? That might definitely take a hit, if I'm not mistaken.

What would have been different in world culture had the Beatles never gotten together? Never affected the world (I'm particularly thinking America) as they did?
