  1. Inspired by programme on Queen Victoria's widowhood

    What if the future Edward VII had died of typhus in 1871?

    "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Below is slightly adapted from a post I made many years ago in a discussion about terrorism - much of it is pertinent here: While there are still people railing against 'the system' which stops them having the things they believe they're entitled to (whether that's correct or not), there will be...
  3. Is it possible for Britain to remain the number one with a POD after 1900?

    Britain with the dominions and a properly organised Empire and without the First World War..
  4. A Difference Of Fate: A Late Roman Timeline

    So something I got wondering was if it is that easy to solve issues like corruption. Also are purges also a good idea? You are already short on trained manpower, I remember hearing once that if you could read in the late roman army they would instantly put you in high positions because this...

    El principe de hierro - A Napoleonic tale

    Napoleon cajoled Carlos IV to abdicate in favor of his son Ferdinand VII and then cajoled the latter to abdicate in favor of Napoleon himself who abdicated in favor of his brother Joseph.
  6. AHQ: Without WW2 when will KMT China overtake Japan as the Asian power

    I don't think there is any way KMT China would ever develop the capacity to offensively force Japan out of Manchuria. You can't "Vietnam" Japan out of Manchuria either. This is a country/society that got hit with nukes, and still wanted to fight. They're just not going to give up. Without a...
  7. FRG withdraws from NATO

    Germany definitly could leave NATO. They just couldn´t legally fforce the Allies to retreat their forces. But like said before, it would be pointless for the Allies to keep their troops in West Germany.

    WI: Muhammad born female

    There's two ways we can go with this: 1) The classic No Islam timeline, which has been done many times in various permutations on this board and generally boils down to: a. A more successful Byzantine Empire, a Christian Persia, eventually Christian Arabia and sometimes global Christianity...
  9. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    because the territory would be contiguous to the us. there is a huge difference between something far away, and stretching your borderlines.
  10. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    America doesn't benefit from a direct annexation of any Mexican territory. They already are getting the fruits of Mexico's resources, direct annexation would be a headache that just has no actual reason to happen. Now, the pseudo-independent Sonora could do things to encourage American...

    A Guide, Resource, and Repository of Could-have-been Ideologies for your Alternate History

    I think most people on AH.com aren't familiar with the particulars of Maoist-Third Worldism, so they could probably appreciate a post on it.
  12. FRG withdraws from NATO

    Agree, hit Germany with enough tariffs and the country will enter a depression. They can't really go to the Soviets since they sure as hell didn't have the money to bail out the German economy. Trying to replace the Western Powers with Eastern ones as trading partners would be like trying to...
  13. AHQ: Without WW2 when will KMT China overtake Japan as the Asian power

    I think it's important to remember with the KMT that, though corrupt and often hated, they were not quite as bad as American historiography and political scientists held for decades. First the Stilwell camp and then those who were determined to blame the loss of China entirely on Chiang led to...
  14. FRG withdraws from NATO

    How is leaving nato occupation of anyone? It’s not like Germany will declare war on everyone instant they leave NATO. If France wanted to leave they could. If US wanted to leave they could. If UK wanted to leave NATO they could. Germany couldn’t.

    Visual art alternate history discussion

    Well it would probably lose a lot some of his grace and be far more mechanic in its style and less focused in the skin and the lighting and such but have even more of a focus on muscles and their movements.
  16. FRG withdraws from NATO

    Basicly in early 1980th, a part of the West German population became more afraid of nuclear war, then of the Red Army. In the view of this people, NATO was a suicide pact, the USA actually the bad guy and the USSR a resonable partner. Even the existing Bundeswehr was seen as to big and...
  17. What if Europe stayed primarily united as an empire as China did?

    This is false. One hundred percent false. Apologies for being blunt, but this myth needs to be killed. 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 and there is no evidence to...
  18. Visual art alternate history discussion

    Here's an idea: what if the USSR never adopted Socialist Realism as its official art style?
  19. TL-191: After the End

    In 2021, the Italian Empire is one of the major powers of the European Community. The Italian Empire includes the Dodecanese Islands, as well as the territories of OTL Libya, Tunisia, Djibouti, and Eritrea. The Italians withdrew from most of the territory that makes up OTL Somalia (in TTL, the...
