Why would they want a buffer with Iran ? India has always wanted a direct oil pipeline to the Middle East.

Id say this map also implies the Fourth Crusade didnt happen as OT. Looks Like Iran has the Euphrates ? Also what happened to the Serbs and Bulgar Kingdoms ?

WW 2 goes differently cause there's now a US colony in striking distance of the European Axis. Hitler might just give a greater priority to the Middle East.

Just remember the man was elected twice. So voters didnt have a problem with this.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Democrats New Democrats, also known as centrist Democrats, Clinton Democrats, or moderate Democrats, are a moderate ideological faction within the Democratic Party in the United States. As the Third Way faction of the party, they support cultural liberalism but...

Indeed . My ultimate aim is to delay to arrival of the USA as a global power. Without intervention in WW1 (or WW2). the US will likely remain isolationist

Basically I'm looking for a plausible scenario where the allies win WW1 before Russia falls to revolution AND before the US joins in. Is there any plausible way this happens ?

Was it possible for the Kriegsmarine in WW2 to forgo the piecemeal surface raiding actions they did with only one or two ships and assemble a larger force to break into the Atlantic ? Specifically could they have combined Bismarck, Gneisenau , Scharnhorst , Scheer, Lutzow ...

Second American Revolution can occur in a couple of times. 1. Early 1800's as Britain is absorbed in fighting Napoleon or whatever version of Revolutionary France exists in this timeline. Both becuase revolutionary ideals would find favour in the 13 colonies and because so much attention...

Eugene was never heir in Italy . He was only Viceroy not Prince. It was a sore spot between him and Napoleon.

Was it at all plausible for him to remain married to Josephine and simply adopt Eugene as his heir ? It would fit his roman pretensions.

You're going to have to create some more detail. Communist by itself is rather vague. Like which brand of communism and what are its leaders goals. Communism in one country vs global revolution.

Why? Presumably this communist US also wishes to maintain its dominance over the Western Hemisphere. Specific govts might fall but the US sphere of influence will still exist.

Thats holidaying not living. People live in places where they can make money and the British West Indies were a backwater .

I get it . You dont actually know what the Brits did post fall of France do you ? So you think concentrating thier forces in the Med is something brand new when that is exactly what they did . You also dont know that they literally went scraping troops from every colony to build up thier...

Wouldnt that trigger riots by itself ?

You think the killing in the partition emerged from nothing? Also unity means a Congress govt vs a Muslim opposition. How long does Congress remain committed to secularism?

Unity just means it now has greater Hindu Muslim tensions to deal within. Probably leading to Pakistani war of independence in the 70s

People are wildly underestimating how much FEAR the Axis navies had of the Royal Navy. The destruction of the BEF does not suddenly make the Axis stronger at sea or in the air. Assuming Churchill survives the political aftermath of 'no Dunkirk', then the war proceeds mostly as normal. RN seizes...

Which is unlikely to change in this scenario.
