    What if Karl von Habsburg’s coup in Hungary 1921 had succeeded?

    stalemate. Most of the borders of Hungary and Yugoslavia was on the Drava-Danube Rivers and was easily defendable for the Hungarians. The only place that the Hungarians will need to concentrate will be in Duna-Drava to Szeged line which is compact and easily defendable.

    What if Karl von Habsburg’s coup in Hungary 1921 had succeeded?

    Aristide Briand let Charles and Zita have their way, but I think the news of a Habsburg restoration in Budapest with passive French support would have made some on the French left howl with rage. I'm not sure about the Romanian reaction, but Czechoslovakia was governed by fanatical...

  4. The Sudeten War: History of the World after an Alternate 1938

    Worse case scenario, the allies invent nukes, have to use dozens of them to beat the Russians, and the use of nuclear weapons is normalized and the colonies are taken back with extreme force. China probably gets razed to the ground in the process. Japan might get back in they fray in China with...
  5. How would Native societies develop if they had horses and camels?

    I disagree with the idea that zebra's aren't capable of domestication. As the Soviet Union shows us with foxes, domestication is something that takes 3/4 of a century and requires the selective breeding of dozens of generations. This was never done with Zebra's. It should also be stated that...

    What if Karl von Habsburg’s coup in Hungary 1921 had succeeded?

    Let’s say France doesn’t intervene, how would a Yugoslav-Hungarian war go then?
  7. Miscellaneous >1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    Yeah, thought so too. But, well, maybe someone would have known something contrary. 1992 is probably too late anyway, with the war in Yugoslavia already in full swing.
  8. AHC: Wank the US crack epidemic

    Would the scheme presented in the 1973 film Live and Let Die -- i.e. manufacture a massive stockpile of cocaine, then release it all to the market at the same time to drive prices down and get new addicts -- work in real life?

    DBAHC: Screw TWA

    With PoD of 1975, make Trans World Airlines to declare bankruptcy and liquidate instead of becoming one of biggest airlines in USA. Well.. Being founded by Howard Hughes, it would be a pretty hard challenge but still..
  10. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I have to say, as much as Pathfinder is using up a lot of artistic license, I'm happy to see how they chose to go with it. (Also, I'm pretty sure that the belly isn't as flat as a normal space shuttle; maybe that could have an influence on aero and fuel capacity?) I'm really enjoying how the...
  11. What if Europe stayed primarily united as an empire as China did?

    It depends. Eventually the introduction of camels would give it access to the Sahel and Trans Saharan Trade. Eventually though there would be a drive to accessing East Asian goods. There would still also be fisherman reaching the New World in the 1400s as long as boat tech advances as fast as...
  12. WI: The Dutch East India Company reaches Korea, and at the same time, the Netherlands, which owns the VOC, immediately colonises the Korean Peninsula

    If we are talking about Macau or Hongkong style territory why are we talking about Jeju island? Jeju is a bit too far off the coast. Why not Geoje island instead?

  14. Was Britain Right to Enter WWI?

    Or any side but the Belgians were quite sure that the German request would come seeing that they had been sounding them out since 1912. https://encyclopedia.1914-1918-online.net/article/pre-war_military_planning_belgium At the time of the Agadir crisis, an extraordinary meeting occurred on 16...

    just a small notice - the last pre-written chapter will drop in tomorrow. After that i cannot guarantee a chapter for 2 months. China will be having a very interesting future thats for sure Well, its a possibility but not a strong one. The political will is indeed the greatest question This...
  16. What if Europe stayed primarily united as an empire as China did?

    - Islamic States fell behind and didn't industrialize due to the geography of the middle east, lack of certain natural resources, and climate, not autocracy. - India was conquered by the British before industrialization really went into full swing. Had the Mughals, Maratha, Kingdom of Kandy...

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Space Police! Finally the reviewer gets too something cool. About time you covered this one mate! :) “It’s like Dr. Who meets Red Dwarf meets Hill Street Blues“ Never a truer set of words typed. Such a gold series! So much better than Who at the time. OC: Wonder which Pythons wrote for Space...

    What if Karl von Habsburg’s coup in Hungary 1921 had succeeded?

    Not really. The only city against Karl was Budapest. Even then, several military commanders in Budapest declared their regiment's neutrality because the troops outright refused to fire at Karl's forces because of many of them still deemed Karl as their monarch. It was due to stupid luck that the...
