    WI/WIP: A posthumous daughter for Catherine of Aragon and Arthur Tudor

    Henry VII is quite generous... when he is in a good and relaxed mood that is. Brilliant update!
  2. The Plantagenet Succession

    Not enough for making their wedding so unacceptable who her own parents would stop it because they feared the scandal. Northumberland had reasons for stopping the match NOT Boleyn. Anne was still a noblewoman, not a bourgeois or a servant. That would not be the first time who an Earl or his heir...

    WI/WIP: A posthumous daughter for Catherine of Aragon and Arthur Tudor
    Threadmarks: XVIII: September 1505

    September 1505 Greenwich Palace, Greenwich, London, England Elizabeth craned her neck to watch through the window as the little party crossed the courtyard. It was a tall, middle aged woman with dark hair dressed in mourning attire, accompanied by a young boy. Elizabeth took a deep breath and...
  4. Vainglory and death: Kurita continues

    Kurita's force probably could have crushed the Taffy groups and inflicted a massacre in Leyte Gulf, but after that it would have been destroyed by Oldendorf's battleships and Halsey's carrier planes. Don't think Halsey's career would have survived though.
  5. An Arthurian Empire of Britannia discussion

    I don't have a strong view on the topic, but this forum is for debate. Just because X sometimes occurs with Y doesn't mean that X is a bad thing. I admire Germany for her modern rejection of Naziism, fiscal prudence, culture of rule-following and strong work ethic. That doesn't make me a racist.
  6. AHC: Stop the Confederacy from seceding

    At the bare minimum you need an agreed upon resolution after the Mexican-American war. Maybe if OTL Northern Mexico was annexed, then there could be a path forward to preserve the free-slave state balance. There will still be growing divides, but that is one problem off the table. Then you need...
  7. The Sudeten War: History of the World after an Alternate 1938

    Probably might are sending some military aid to Allies but hardly more. USA would need some casus belli before it enters seriously to war. Only way I can see is Stalin invading Alaska but he is not tht stupid.
  8. Map Thread XX

    I was referring to what was happening in the Balkans and Hungary, specifically.

    Map Thread XX

    That was more of a thing in 1900, by 1910 it's more about feeding other nations and peoples into the meat grinder so that you can get eaten last. Although when it comes to Japan it pretty much is petty grudges, at least when it comes to gaining assistance from western powers Stalin was far...
  10. Post WWI - No Throne Loss.

    With a POD after January 1, 1915, have World War I end with all of the thrones which existed prior to the war continuing to exist. Forcing Monarchs to abdicate in favor of sons/brothers is fine.

    The Sudeten War: History of the World after an Alternate 1938

    I think they should be mobilizing since the fall of Berlin or sending some military aid.
  12. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Would it be possible ITTL to have something like the original American Magic's Corman Institute? If so, I feel like Tommy Wiseau should go there and get a real education in how to make a movie. I wonder what his movies (I'd assume he makes more than one ITTL if he goes to the Corman Institute.)...

    Feeble Constitution - A Red-and-Green Russia 1917 Timeline

    Yeah, the British around the Persian gulf and the oil would be like:
  14. WI: Iraq invades Saudi Arabia?

    ...liasons who pointed out that the Iraqis were running a play straight out of the Soviet playbook and that NATO had long since created a counter. Translated into the common tongue the plan goes something like this: Son, don't run down the hill to F*** one of them cows; walk down and F*** them all.
  15. Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    Here's another take on this concept from @Kerguelen I found somewhere on this site and saved 🤔
  16. AHC: Stop the Confederacy from seceding

    Sadly, that probably wouldn't have helped. In OTL, Jesus said "What God has joined together let no man separate", and that didn't stop them from selling husbands without their wives. I can't see them being any more deferential to that commandment. They also would have tried to get around it by...
  17. Imperial Cult remains Rome's official Religion

    T The cival wars had more to do with power poltics than anything esle. The Church probaly was a boon to the Empire than anything else.
  18. The Sudeten War: History of the World after an Alternate 1938

    I'm wondering if the US could be convinced to fight against China to bring South Asia under European colonial rule again. They are both anti-imperial powers in name. A war against the USSR in Europe is a lot easier to sell to the voters.

    How would Kennedy, Khrushchev, and their governments be remembered if the CMC went hot?

    Gen Powers, though not part of current SIOP, probably would have ordered nuclear strikes on Chinese airbases to clear a corridor into the USSR for his B-52s They were unfriendly, and in the way. But the USA is the only game left in town. Moscow, that got hit with over a gigaton worth of...
