    Challange: Prague Spring

    What I have recently come by is that there was a significant opposition from inside CP CSR against th reforms. The conservative wing created a letter handed to Brezhnev by one of its members in the General Comitee CP CSR, signed by over a hundred officials demanding action. I think, if the...
  2. No Collectivization in the Soviet Union

    Sorry, but it is anything but clear how “nothing else changes” will work together with a private agriculture? Here are the mist obvious questions: 1. How purchase/selling of the agricultural products is going to happen? The only buyer in your schema is a state so, being a monopoly, the state is...
  3. AHC: Christianity for Africa, Islam for Europe

    Echoing an earlier comment, this does seem difficult geographically speaking. Like, I can imagine Coptic and Orthodox crusader states springing from Nubia and Ethiopia, maybe leading to a reconquest of Northern Africa. Perhaps from there it might percolate southward. Where my imagination fails...
  4. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Just the fact that they want to hold on to Londonderry (70%+ Catholic) and Omagh (also 70%+) illustrates just who much of a really (even for the UDA) REALLY bad Idea this was. The map doesn't have enough detail to be sure, but it looks line they actually used the River Foyle (which runs through...
  5. A Time For Greatness: The Alternate Presidency of John F. Kennedy and beyond

    So I accidentally put a portion meant for March 1963 in the update for May. Sorry about that, I've edited the previous update to include the correct section and removed it from the latest update.

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    Ideally a boy, just so she can save her skin
  8. How far does Communism spread if the US is disinterested?

    Don't believe you, Allende was elected without a majority and tried to rule like he was given a mandate, and he got the backlash from the middle class and rural landowners. If the military hadn't killed Schneider and staged the coup I doubt Allende would have been 're-elected, those pots and...

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    All three are married now but we do know Claude has an ill health and Catherine is maybe with child at an advanced age. Anything could happen
  10. Napoleon 2nd in 1830?

    In otl, Lafayette hated Napoleon I for tainting the revolution by making himself consul, and later emperor. Idk if he'd support Napoleon II. Im sure there's another way to get Nappy on the throne though.
  11. If not Russia what would have been the most likely state to have been the first to turn communist?

    1) So it didn't happen to Haiti or Brazil. So what? I didn't say it would happen to EVERY country coming out of feudalism or even most. 2) Cuba and Venezuela are and were hardly first rank countries. No ever compared Cuba to Italy not talking Germany, US or France.

    Challange: Prague Spring

    The reform movement in CSR in '68 wasn't primary of factory workers but of artits and political activists. The economic sitation in CSR wasn't bad at that time, but people wanted to have more liberal government faster than it was happening until '68.
  13. No Collectivization in the Soviet Union

    40% of agricultural output of Israel comes from collectivized farms. Collectivization can be very successful, if it is voluntary. Collectivization doesnt necessarily mean state ownership. Most farmers in the Soviet Union held their land communally (about 80% on the eve of the revolution)...

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    Agreed, Savoy is a slight stretch tbh since Isabella is too high ranking for Charles.

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    Not a portuguese nobleman, and savoy would be possible but i think isabella would rather enter a convent than marry a duke tbh
  17. What is Greater Poland

    Greater Poland (Wielkopolska), place where tribe of Polans (Polanie) lived, was once called just Poland (Polska). It was "Poland proper" like Bohemia proper was part of larger Kingdom of Bohemia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohemia And boundaries of Greater Poland corresponded to area ruled...
