  1. Historical Political Systems Colour Scheme Thread

    I remember this same question being asked in a topic a year ago! Quite a coincidence, because I was going to delete my old colouring scheme if I didn't see this: +It's comparative, sort of. Instead of being based on a set of political system, it is based on a set of political values. I...
  2. Alternate Political Parties

    Name: Venezuelan Revolutionary Front (FRV) Nation: Democratic Republic of Venezuela Founding: January 1st, 1954 (?) Ideology: Democratic Socialism achieved through a "Special Period" of despotism Overview: As the Twenty Year's War continued throughout the rest of the world, The Republic of...
  3. Map Thread VI

    Remember the Montreal Commune! (Counterbalancing the implausible Canada-wanks with an even more implausible Quebec-wank, touché)
  4. When Was the Golden Age of Western Civilization

    It does not matter whether or not the traditional western countries are falling behind. Western civilization, for the first time in history, has been exported to almost every corner of the world. All the world powers function under the modern western ideals of competition and capitalism, and as...
  5. Flag Thread II

    What if the French Resistance had a crack team of vexillologists? Also a half-assed flag for an African People's Republic.
  6. Map Thread V

    THE SUN NEVER SETS ON THE FRENCH EMPIRE :D Francophilia aside, can you really not bother with adding a few effects on the map* instead of just switching the colours around repeatedly? *or use a different basemap, for that matter
  7. Preparing for a "Yes:" Quebec, 1995

    The Sovereignity Bill in question really didn't offer much sovereignity in the first place. Even if the separatists went out and called for an independent Quebec, economically the country would be as integrated to Canada as it was as a province: Basically being in Canada but not really in...
  8. Map Thread V

    UCS on acid? Could be starting a trend here. (Don't understand your wording on the explanation of the map, though)
  9. Map Thread V

    Updated version of a map I posted a few pages back, now with 20% more clutter!
  10. Map Thread V

    The whole colour thing was just aesthetics to mimic the tricolore on the map; most likely this is a map printed on brochures for the hordes of tourists. I'd thought of making Burgundy all red but it seems to make the red bulge out too much against the white. My idea was that ITL the [insert...
  11. Map Thread V

    Posting something here before I vanish for another two months. More of a graphic exercise than a serious map, but... (I'm aware of the border problems, though I think it looks better with some white space between the border and the coloured parts)
  12. Map Thread V

    Maybe the Churchill one? Possibly the best Anglowank ever and illustrates how a DBWI is supposed to unfold. My memory of the scenarioes I've read is kinda blurry. Perhaps the Granada-takes-over-Spain AH too?
  13. Map Thread V

    Please do more maps from If it Had Happened Otherwise. I'd love to see your interpretation of the "Napoleon Escaped to America" Scenario.
  14. Alternate Societies and Cultures

    Now for an ASB moment (1/2) THE POLITICAL SYSTEM OF THE GREATER HAUDESONNEE REPUBLICS AS OF THE REFORMATIONS OF TSAEWA TEIORHESERE AVOUET The society of contemporary Haudesonnee culture can be represented in the form of a pyramid, divided into three classes, and parallel to the military and...
  15. Map Thread V

    FREE TIBET FROM THE BRITISH IMPERALISTS GRRR Still part of your "Ameriwank with missiles" TL? Changes are plausible enough, though I can't grasp how the French survived the German blitzkrieg for seemingly years. (And is it really an Ameriwank until they invade Canada?)
  16. What got YOU into Alternate History?

    LP on all the Paradox games --> Paradox forums --> Link to the blank map thread on here. AH appreciation must've developed somewhere in there, most probably when I started examining the historical plausibility of a scenario where the Iroquois were taking over the world.
  17. New OTL Maps project: Political parties

    Ver. 2, now with 700% slicker text! (Colours are evidently not my forte)
  18. Map Thread V

    Did the Belgians achieve Manifest Destiny by uniting Africa from the Indian to the Atlantic? (And of course Belgium, the greatest power in the world, will not join the Second Great War until the Japanese bomb "Wallonia Harbour")
  19. New OTL Maps project: Political parties

    That would be too easy! (Cramming every single political ideology there is, never mind their system of governance would take an incredible amount of shades. If you classify a society as either a democracy or autocracy, what happens to the one-party-dominant democracies, the constitutional...
  20. New OTL Maps project: Political parties

    Ugh. Hindsight's 20/20 though, right? Screw that idea, then. How about a system still based on two axes: one axis based on the powers its citizens hold over the state, and another based on its social views (given economic-related criteria would not work if we look into the past)? First...
