  1. More effective Japanese ASW in ww2

    Agreed. The trouble is, IJNHQ hadn't the education or grasp of the strategic situation to realize that. They were treating the U.S. (& Britain) like the Russians & Chinese, expecting government collapses, while at the same time not recognizing they weren't fighting a brown water war...

    Well, true, since this one was not censored this will lead more people to comission waifus of war criminals I just want a Curtis LeMay-chan
  4. Other Portugals: What countries could have remained apart from Spain?

    This is a really fascinating situation and I wonder if there are any other regions that have a similar power dynamic where the center of power also is resistant towards the confederation. The closest thing you usually encounter is where a powerful and influential secondary region is mistaken for...
  5. What if Europe stayed primarily united as an empire as China did?

    It does you said : "Outside of geography and natural resources, there is nothing special about Protestants and Europeans that give them a automatic edge over the rest of the world " I argue the checks and balances also proved a factor for the rise of the west

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    Yes it is worth censoring it for that is an abomination against every god, daemon, and holy or unholy being ever created and must be purged in fire. In all seriousness it's disturbing and it should be censored because it's so incredibly distatsful that it make the Moe Order look like a Van Gough.

    WI: Paper invented in Zgreece 450 BC

    Lots’ more Ancient Greek literature survives. Especially if coupled with the printing press, even if I’m skeptical if the economic, political, and social conditions are there. If only.
  8. WI: Muhammad born female

    Agreed! I think Islam ITTL would distance itself from the Judeo-Christian tradition (what that says about its chances outside the peninsula are up to interpretation) and would be more of a codification of pre-existing Arabian monotheism. The tradition of Hanifs worshipping the high creator god...
  9. AHQ: Without WW2 when will KMT China overtake Japan as the Asian power

    My bad. Got my dates mixed up. I thought I read somewhere that Chiang was about to finish off the communists but the warlords threatened to coup him if he didn't focus on the Japanese.
  10. 6 inch gun on a S Class destroyer , acts of desperation Hong Kong

    Big guns on small destroyers don't work. The ship moves around too much to make it easy to handle the heavy ammunition by hand.

    A Shift in Priorities - Sequel

    So is New Zealand's head of state vacant or is it some distant relative of the Windsors?
  13. AHQ: Without WW2 when will KMT China overtake Japan as the Asian power

    I didn't realize Thailand was doing that well.
  14. AHQ: Without WW2 when will KMT China overtake Japan as the Asian power

    The Long March was over two years before the invasion.
  15. AHQ: Without WW2 when will KMT China overtake Japan as the Asian power

    This would require modernizing "like Japan or Korea". Currently, China has a real GDP per capita equal to what Korea had in 1999 or 1994 (the Asian financial crisis led to a recession between those dates). Thailand has a GDP per capita 78% as large, and more or less equivalent to what Korea had...

  18. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    I wholeheartedly agree. To add to that, Alvaro Obregon is Sonoran and is quite important in the new order (even if he's not one of the Triunvirato). Cutting him off from his Sonoran base wouldn't do anyone any favours.
  19. PC: Black POTCS

    This wasn’t the basis of Plessy’s argument. He was recruited by a local group of colored New Orleans because of his race and because he appeared to be white. He agreed and was recruited not because they wanted legal status as a white people, but because they were challenging segregated...
