    Map Thread XX

    In this timeline, relations between the USSR and the West are far colder, even in WWII. As such, there was no Tehran, Potsdam, Yalta, or any major conference to decide Europe's postwar Europe. It's basically a free-for-all, and Stalin fears the West will just steamroll their way into Russia...
  3. Saratoga of the South: An Alternate History of America

    Thanks for the nice words. I'm not going to spoil how the end of the war goes in order to keep it a surprise, but the US is going to look different down the road.

    No 1991 August Coup

    I can definitely see the Yugoslav wars being used by the Soviets to tell its people “hey, let’s NOT do that”. Might be a wake up call for the Soviet people after seeing what could’ve happened. I feel the Soviets will either have the same policy in regards to the Yugoslav wars or a slightly more...
  5. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)
    Threadmarks: A Review of the Timeline

    OK, this timeline has gone on for an extremely long time without a summary, so I will provide the Reader's Digest version of all the major events in this timeline for those who don't want to read 23 pages of posts. 1. IRL, Star Trek was placed in a 10 PM Friday night time slot in its third...
  6. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Will Columbia also make the Joel Schumacher Batman movies
  7. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    I believe you mean "What? No! Anyways..." *sips coffee in burning planet* "This is fine."
  8. WI/WIP: A posthumous daughter for Catherine of Aragon and Arthur Tudor

    Bit of a tangent here but... isn't there a book where Henry VIII is an werewolf?
  9. AH Timeline: The NHL-WHA merger: A different story

    Sabres actually win a cup?? And against their expansion brothers? That just makes it better. Although Vancouver will be in ruins for the next few weeks Steelers win 5th before 2000? That's amazing Let's through out all context. No I'm just kidding, I'm glad Ken Griffey Jr. did capture that...

    "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Ian Paisley Time man of the year? Now even Catholics will vote from him. DUP and Ian Paisley top the poll at the next election. All the king's horse and all the King's men... Hunted down Brian Faulkner and co. Brian Faulkner and co leave the country faster than James II after the battle of Boyne.

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    And Gaxotte? Was he a member of the action francaise or just a normal historian?
  12. AHC: Qing North and Buddhist South China

    That would probably need some big cultural revolution stuff going on- maybe a revolutionary Buddhist ideology takes over Japan as it industrialises in an alt communism, and then in a Chinese civil war takes over the south and causes a radical break with the dynastic past.

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

    Well at least we have learned that beauty can emerge from ugliness..... Ringworld sounds so much like Eisner, being something that emerged out of personal spite and jealousy, but hey, at least it turned out pretty great despite its troubled production. I loved how his former employer Paramount...

    Imperial Cult remains Rome's official Religion

    Agreed. This is, I think, especially so because it's hard to imagine how different and diverse early Christianity looked as opposed to the later unified imperial / post-Roman medieval version. With some early changes (perhaps more successful pagan competitors) and no imperial approval for...
  15. Umayyads manage to take Rome and Constantinople. Could the Umayyads take the title of Roman emperor

    Why not? In the 900s to the 1100s, people in the Holy Roman Empire considered themselves the true heirs to Rome. Religious continuity (principate was Pagan, later Roman Emperors and Holy Roman Emperors were Christian), control of Rome (HRE didn't control Rome), continuity (there was a gap in...

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    Oh I see then. Thanks for clarifying that! :)
  17. AHC: Make "Byzantines" consider themselves Greek before 11th Century

    Yeah that's what I thought too, actually, but according to Wikipedia there was a revival in the use of the term Hellene in the second millennium, with people like Anna Komnene, Michael Psellos taking it as a compliment to be Hellenic and especially in the context of tensions with the Latins...
