  1. The Plantagenet Succession

    Still she was from untitled, minor aristocracy not commoner. Her father was a well know courtier and she also was a member of the court
  2. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    Nope, these were supposed to be upgraded A-7Ds with relatively low time on their airframes. LTV’s aim was to extend the life of the A-7 program by providing the Pentagon with a low cost option for the night interdictor/CAS role that recycled existing (lightly used) engines and airframes...

    WI: Edward VI was killed by Thomas Seymour?

    Edward VI takes the honor of being the first head of state to be assassinated by a gun from William the Silent. A small conciliation prize for death. He’d be the only Head of State that I know of that was killed in accidental manslaughter instead of first degree murder as well. Mary most likely...

    Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    Trying to give a concrete definition to such a question is one of the main sources of academic brawls in that universe's political science university departments. It is much easier to look at Romanism, Falangism, Integralism, Centurianism, and Techno-voglerism and work from there rather than...
  5. WI: Edward VI was killed by Thomas Seymour?

    Is Somerset brought down as well? His protectorate would end, of course, as Mary is an adult. But Somerset is already unpopular by this time, and now he is brother of the king's assassin. Do his opponents tar him find some way to tar him in his to execute him and/or seize his estates?
  6. An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    That would be ASB. Germaine is too much old than him and the widow of his grandfather
  7. Britain colonized

    Not really. You need one empire or one social group to control the whole society. Scenario 1. Carolingian Empire survives. It controls Central Italy - no independent Pope and no clergy as a separate social force. Papacy is subservient to the state 2. Since there is no social or political...
  8. Was the first Sino-Japanese war the last chance to save the Qing?

    I wouldn't be so sure, since not only Japan would likely be the country paying the giant indemnity ITTL (as well as the one which loses its navy in an alternate version of the Battle of the Yalu River) the Qing's position (in their core, at the very least) would continue to strengthen itself...
  9. WI: No post-war deportations?

    ...Why? The Soviets are sitting on Eastern Europe and the US is sitting on Western Europe. No European state can hope to challenge either of them. Ethnic conflicts will be frozen for the duration of the Cold War. Now, this might make the 1990s "interesting," and you might see more...
  10. Under what circumstances would NATO or the Warsaw Pact have actually gone to war with each other?

    Just like Reagan the Kaiser promoted an arms race, Bonzo's Buddy had Star Wars; the Kaiser battleships. Reagan announced "I have just declared the end of the Soviet Union, The bombing begins in 5 minutes." Based upon his winning World War II on a Hollywood backlot Reagan was itching for a...
  11. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Damn it's so credible and typical that's depressing
  12. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    Interesting thoughts. I wonder what the left would turn to. I initially thought they might go down a more internationalist path (since French left-wing nationalism would be discredited by the failure to retake Alsace), but now I'm wondering if the failure of "bourgeois democracy" and a potential...
  13. how different would world war two be if the Soviets lost the Russian Civil war?

    If the Nazi still take power it would just be them stomping out one warlord after another.
  14. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    Would Germany demand Morocco if they won? I know they had interests there during the Agadir Crisis but so far as I know they didn't have plans for the region during the war; most of their interest in Africa had to do with the Mittelafrika project. If the Rif War is avoided though what might we...
  15. More extensively modified Luftwaffe RF 4E

    http://www.joebaugher.com/usaf_fighters/f4_16.html WI the Luftwaffe RF4 were given a more comprehensive weapons upgrade , with ability to carry a variety of PGM stores and also AIM9 for self defense ? Will it help decrease the reliance on Tornado IDS and a secondary fighter capability ?

    Trying to Please Everyone: Or Converting multiple Pop Culture Utopias into a Timeline.

    Ok that's three Neutrals, which I guess is enough. Besides it will give me a chance to redo some of the earlier stuff.

    Map Thread XX

    No nukes. As a result, commitments in the Pacific leave the U.S. vulnerable in Europe. ITTL, Patton rushes for Prague, defying orders, and is assassinated by the Soviets. War ensues.
  18. An Arthurian Empire of Britannia discussion

    Well, typically in cases of ethnic cleansing, the options are assimilation, exile, or annihilation. So yes, I think it's a certainty that there was a lot of forced Saxonization going on.
  19. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    A-10 was certainly a net gain for the USAF. My point is that A-7 - had it been purchased by USAF in another many hundreds instead of the A-10 - would still be a net gain for the USAF.
  20. how different would world war two be if the Soviets lost the Russian Civil war?

    if the Reds lose the Russian civil war, the civil war just continues when the shaky alliance that was the White Army turns against itself. Best case scenario you've got chaotic disfunction. Hopefully the lack of the USSR butterflies the Nazis because otherwise invading Russia and claiming...
