  1. Greeks also deported to the Levant during World War 1

    Would be possible for the Greek Population of the Ottoman empire to be deported alongside the Armenians to the Levant during World War 1 . What would be the impact of this.
  2. AHQ: Stable succession system in Byzantium

    Yeah Leo had 30 year long peace treaty i don't quite understand your question but what iam saying is michael was desaparte to the point he called the bulgars to defeat thomas which was one of the reasons why Thrace was devesated after the rebelión as for Bulgaria the most historians agree that...

    Ottoman Empire continues to consider itself successor to Roman Empire following Mehmed II's death

    OTL, Mehmed II gave himself the title "Caesar of Rome" after taking Constantinople, and even made a few attempts to conquer the Italian peninsula. However, this title was effectively abandoned after his death, and just became another empty title of the Ottoman Sultan. What would it take for the...

  5. AHQ: Stable succession system in Byzantium

    It is impossible to have a "stable succession system" in an autocratic/monarchical system of government. Such systems are inherently fragile due to the randomness of competence which comes with any system which vests so much power in an individual based on what womb they fell out of. As others...
  6. If You Can Keep It: A Revolutionary Timeline

    That was the original intent when I started drafting this TL, which means my basemaps all have those borders and it's pretty hard to change them! I've realised since that I was far too mean to the US in my original drafts (back then the TL was meant to simply switch the roles of America and...
  7. Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    The war in South Africa could really benefit Soviets by long term stoking of racial tensions in the west. By supporting radicals both among the Boers and Native Africans and making sure all crimes are published and spread across the west you could lead to a much earlier rise in racial tensions...
  8. AHQ: Stable succession system in Byzantium

    Now this raises a question. Leo had made peace with Bulgaria prior to Michael II taking over, so it doesn't seem like it was one of his immediate priorities. So when do the Byzantines turn to focusing on Bulgaria in this situation?
  9. Map Thread XX

    So they gave up southern Mozambique in return for a still-mostly-British controlled Zambia? Feel like Portugal ended up losing in this agreement... :(
  10. If You Can Keep It: A Revolutionary Timeline

    Fair point. Also, have we seen the limits of American territorial expansion ITTL, based on the election maps?
  11. AHC make it hard to colonize North America

    Yes but if the moment after isnt taken by an organized expedition sanctioned by the metropoli the chances of the diseases being followed by inmediate conquest and almost complete erasure are far lower. The sooner the contact happen the most likely is that the logistics arent there for the...
  12. If You Can Keep It: A Revolutionary Timeline

    My initial thought was Calhoun just because the name of "Fire-Eaters" sounds so delightfully bizarre but Calhoun has a future in this ATL that doesn't really fit with Caligula. I'm gonna have to keep thinking :P

    As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    After I mention a Time animated film, all this happens...? Anywayyyyy...wonder who to pick for the cast and what is the filmography of Famous Studios at this point?

    Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    This, I’m not too sure Portugal would be supporting the Nationalists if they were seizing their territory lol. Nice update. I assume the switch to American tobacco is historical?
  15. If You Can Keep It: A Revolutionary Timeline

    Things don't continue going in such a freefall for the United States, so hopefully we won't have all of America's emperors, haha. (This is a very fancy way to state that I haven't totally figured out the post-Jackson timeline)

    If You Can Keep It: A Revolutionary Timeline

    Maybe you could have a Jefferson Davis presidency in which he loses his goddamn mind. Or perhaps a presidency from that weirdo "Claw hammer" or something equally bizarre.

    WI: extinct Celts, extant Goths

    Presumably (we know so little about that war that anything is conceivable), but Slavic pressure is going to be intense, and Transylvania is significantly to the east of the Gepids' power base in the Pannonian lowlands; they'd have to be pushed there in the first place. It's interesting to...
  18. No Collectivization in the Soviet Union

    In Canada, the government, under pressure from Socialist-Farmer-Labour parties, limited land ownership to 320 acres (the max that could be gained homesteading), subsidized the rail transport of the farmers' crops (through the nationalized railway system), and provided the United Grain Growers'...

    PDWs as spin-offs from the 'Artillery Luger' in widespread use in 1915-1945

    Or you could just have both of them making SMGs, because again, you'd have to retool the pistol factories anyways to get them mass producing PCCs. You don't have what you don't make. So get making SMGs. Which is not what was used by "France, Italy, Czechoslovakia, Japan, China, Poland...
  20. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Nothing, probably? US internal policy was very explicitly against war with Japan when there was the possibility of a war on two fronts with Germany. What are you talking about? Stalin explicitly supported Chiang Kai-Shek and didn’t give Mao any substantial military support until after he...
