  1. What if the FDR and Congress decided to build a new Capital during the depression?

    There have been proposals to move the capital since the beginning of the country but what if as a way to not only create jobs during the Depression but also as a way to portray to the country that the President and Congress are trying to be more responsive the citizens needs by moving the...
  2. WI: Canada accepts Article Eleven and joins the United States?

    Your projecting something that wasn't a dominate sentiment. The American Patriots had no strong desire to make Quebec a State, or oppress it's people. They wanted to secure their Northern boarder. A friendly Quebec was more then enough for them.
  3. What if Europe stayed primarily united as an empire as China did?

    I think it's not overstated polítical division is one thing but the kings were by far not absolute monarchs in the early middle ages As we go on the middle ages something of a balance of power showed up in western europe between the king , the church , the merchants /towns and the nobility...
  4. WI: Canada accepts Article Eleven and joins the United States?

    What makes you think the Patriots wanted to abuse the French population? It's not as if there were no Catholics in America, Maryland was a Catholic State. I think your projecting something from the War of 1812, or thinking of the anti-Catholic Pilgrims. NE had changed a lot in 150 years. If the...
  5. AHQ: Balance of Power in Asia if No WW2, or any other major conflict happening

    The closest to OTL I could see it is if the Militarists were willing to settle for Manchuria and were willing to really slap down junior officers who stepped out of line. Court martial them and then execute them for treason or something similarly dishonorable.

    AHQ: Without WW2 when will KMT China overtake Japan as the Asian power

    If Japan backs off after taking hold of Manchuria, then to be honest, I don't know if the KMT would. They were infamously corrupt and absolutely hated; the CCP was small, and I doubt they'd take it over. But it is typically quite hard for a corrupt autocracy with an incompetent administration to...

    Perhaps, but at this point im too far in to change it now

    WI: Canada accepts Article Eleven and joins the United States?

    Again you trying to get French speaking Catholics to join a Protestant nation. It’s not going to happen.

    Return of Horrible Educational Maps

    Wouldn't really consider this a bad map since it's completely intentional. It's much easier to fill in the territorial waters as a part of the specific region in which the islands are a part of than individually coloring in each island. Sure it's lazy, but it gets the job done
  10. A 'smarter' NATO cartridge strategy 1950-1980?

    Cryhavoc101, could you add the 7.92 CETME cartridge figures to your table of ammunition in post 64 please. it would be interesting to see where this round fits with all the others. Personally i really like the idea of both the FAL and the EM2 chambered for a 7.62 CETME bullet
  11. Map Thread XX

    Now, also working on a background scenario, and I'm trying to get a bit of an early 70s retro-future vibe where it fits. Any suggestions as to what I should include? (There has already been a limited nuclear war, which is why the US is now a fascistic ape labor dictatorship.)

    No Collectivization in the Soviet Union

    And took seed as well. What was the next years crop to be grown from? And exporting crops to pay for industrialization, while Ukraine starved

    WI: Canada accepts Article Eleven and joins the United States?

    Quebec has an Iron works and one the major players in that was a huge supporter of the American Revolution. His name was Christophe Pelissier https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christophe_P%C3%A9lissier_(businessman). So we do have a Potential Quebecois founding father in him and we have an increase...
  14. WI: The Holy Roman Empire Without Napoleon

    I think it depends on how much you think the French Revolution had a affect on the concept of Nationalism. I think it'd exist but be largely defunct unless reformed in some major way. At some point the Electorates will annex all of the smaller states and Austria will have to decide whether or...
  15. AHQ: Balance of Power in Asia if No WW2, or any other major conflict happening

    And they still thought long and hard about declaring war on the western powers, waiting till it seemed the Soviets were on the ropes. No one liked what the Japanese were doing in Asia. But it is not hard to come up with some scenarios where the Japanese are strung along on a shoestring until...
  16. Map Thread XX

    Yeah, circa "Conquest of", although I'm stretching the timeline out a bit, since the notion we go from no apes to mass ape labor globally in under 20 years is sort of ridiculous. (I mean, chimps need 15 years just to reach physical maturity...)
  17. What if Europe stayed primarily united as an empire as China did?

    This just isn't true and is borderline cliche. Autocracy does not automatically equate to intellectual stagnation. - The Roman and Byzantine Empires in otl were known for many scientific advances, most notably in architecture and engineering, but in other fields as well. - The Catholic...
  18. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Called it! Then again, it took me a search as to what FAO Schwartz even is for me to get the reference.
  19. AHC: Save a notorious flop

    If I fell ass-backwards into a pile of money I'd use part of it to make a Final Fantasy VI series for Amazon or Apple+. Alas.
