    List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

    I suppose, maybe I could just have John Stewart die before he can marry Anne, or maybe Edward is able to grab Anne before John can.
  2. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History

    This is just glorious. Is it inspired by RL events?
  3. List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

    Unlikely. They were first cousins, he was raised in France and she was married to him very young. Madeleine is only two years younger than her sister and a very good match

    List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

    Damn, I forgot about the York girls! I might changes James IV to be James V then. I also think this POD might butterfly away John Stewart's marriage to Anne, so that Anne can marry Edward,
  5. Was Britain Right to Enter WWI?

    It was, but was rubber-stamped by the League of Nations, which pretty much showed the League's inability to deal with the major powers or the interests of the native peoples in the mandates (or colonies for that matter).
  6. WI: Canada accepts Article Eleven and joins the United States?

    Why? Once beseiged into Quebec they have no hope of relief, so it's just a matter of starving them out. Haiti was much more densely populated and infested with tropical deiseases. No such problem in Canada.
  7. List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

    James IV in this scenario will marry Cecily of York, and also Anne and Catherine of York will made royal matches (Anne to Philip of Austria-Burgundy and Catherine in Spain). Also Anne de la Tour was married to her first cousin John Stewart pretty early, so her younger sister Madeleine is a much...
  8. Truth of collapse of Germany in WW1

    The failure of managing the food distribution system in Germany, resulting in starving in the cities and the growth of revolutionary feeling in industrial & military areas, was a large factor that exacerbated the effects of the blockade.
  9. A Time For Greatness: The Alternate Presidency of John F. Kennedy and beyond

    It's worth noting that the words I used for Kennedy's address on civil rights in June of 1963 and added sections to make it appropriate to the timeline. However, I do have a purely original JFK speech I wrote myself somewhere down the line. You shall see. :)
  10. Alternate History: Explain the historical event

    A science fiction movie by george lucas made in 1978 set on an alternate earth where each nation has its own distinct culture and planet colonies, the french one (one of the largest after the british,american and russian) is considered to be the bad guy (as they always looking to expand) this...

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

    Flipside, what about the argument of annexation to deliberately weaken Southern Democrats? Over fifty years after the ACW, I would imagine how tantalizing the concept of making Southern Dems less relevant would be to anyone else.
  12. A 'smarter' NATO cartridge strategy 1950-1980?

    NATO went for an intermediate/full power combo in the end with 5.56 and 7.62 so in hindsight the whole "single round for both MG and rifle" nonsense was unnecessary. Indeed I don't recall the British wanting .270 for all weapons, they had the Taden gun in .270 which was like a 50's Minimi (SAW...
  13. Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands unto God: A History of the True Whigs

    Yeah, it's something where the Liberian True Whigs would be happy to just absorb Sierra Leone into Liberia but if they try that, there'd be huge outcry in Freetown who are already worried about being bound to a larger more powerful neighbour. If there is a new unitary state created it would have...
  14. How would RFK handle Vietnam if he won in 1968, in your own personal opinion?

    Perhaps have the sense not to send draftees.
  15. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Realistically-speaking, too many politicians would be against it. The Southern Democrats alone would raise merry hell about it in Congress, and they probably have enough pull with not just the Northern Democrats but even a few Republicans to make trying to get any Mexican clay a gesture in...
  16. Emerald of The Equator: An Indonesian TL

    Well the situation in the horn of africa is a mess (just like otl) but with both country in a state of civil war? Now this is interesting also does some jewish intellectual starting to teach in indonesian university? I mean most that escaped to madagascar are intellectuals
  17. Feeble Constitution - A Red-and-Green Russia 1917 Timeline

    I'm not sure if we can even say that attitudes have already changed so deeply. It's only been five years after the PoD, after all. The press landscape, the religious landscape, much of this changed, the social structures, too, and new topics are high up on the agenda. And without general killing...
  18. WI: Churchill or Stalin Die Instead of Roosevelt

    Would Roosevelt have woken up to how evil Stalin was?
  19. Jean Jaurès lives

    Thank you very much!
  20. AHC: Stop the Confederacy from seceding

    Ok fair enough. Supposing the 1784 Act passes, and (what doesn't necessarily follow) that it leads to a phasing out of slavery. In that event, any thoughts on what becomes of the former slaves? Obviously, the slave population in the early 1800s will be a lot less than in 1865. But even then...
