  1. AHQ: Stable succession system in Byzantium

    That really does not make more stable as they will kill each other for the prime minister second in command it would be more stable if a permanent evolves for that system to evolve first would take time best case would be the Senate but even then it would take decades if not centuries...
  2. Comte de Dordogne

    Map Thread XX

    With these two sentences alone, we understand that there is a serious problem. 🤪 What is the POD? How did the Soviets end up occupying all of France and Italy? There are no atomic weapons to "shorten" the conflict? I would find it amusing if in this timeline there was an analogy between Roland...

    Under wings of the Zilant: a Golden horde timeline

    I seem lost on how to do this. But I will try once I post at least 4 chapters.
  4. WI: Edward VI was killed by Thomas Seymour?

    If he has spare bullet he'd better kill himself quickly.
  5. AHC: Make "Byzantines" consider themselves Greek before 11th Century

    But the terms for Greek included Hellen and Graikos, and Rhomaios- the emperor is also referred to by some Byzantine sources as emperor of the Hellenes, but not the Romans, who presumably count as Hellenes. So yeah while the relatively weak form of ethnic identity definitely did exist, I don't...
  6. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    Yeah, if I had to pick the worst SECDEF terms I would consider Cheney and Rumsfeld first and McNamara second. What a mess.

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

    Two Unrelated Infoboxes About The Simpsons Infobox #1: Sideshow Bob voiced by James Earl Jones A while ago, I learned that before settling on having The Simpsons character Sideshow Bob be voiced by Kelsey Grammer, the early version of the script for the episode Krusty Gets Busted called for...
  8. AHQ: Stable succession system in Byzantium

    Could we have the emperor's position be a bit less absolute, and share power with some kind of prime minister? That way people would fight over the latter office rather than the imperial throne, giving at least some semblance of stability instead of routinely swapping dynasties every century or...
  9. AHQ: Is a Soviet occupation of all of Germany in WW2 possible?

    Yeah its possible, but I think that any scenario that allows the soviets to push to the Rhine means they won't stop there.
  10. The Plantagenet Succession

    The other is married to her step-daughter, her husband's daughter by his first wife.
  11. Arctodus simus

    Under wings of the Zilant: a Golden horde timeline

    There is a tag which I hope will not be much of a spoiler that kinda gives away Russia's fate ( initially ). But one thing, Golden horde or Qipchak Khanate will only acquire minimum Rus principality lands for now.
  12. The Plantagenet Succession

    He hadn't at the time - Maria of Portugal didn't marry Richard III "The Tyrant" until 1528 - Anne married in 1525. So she was a "commoner" at the time of her marriage to Henry Percy. Her father had been knighted before that, but that was as high as it went.
  13. AHQ: Is a Soviet occupation of all of Germany in WW2 possible?

    If you prevent the entry of the US in the war it's possible. Otherwise not really.

    An Arthurian Empire of Britannia discussion

    While im sure that cases of that happened as well, there is another likely option which would explain why there are several rulers of the English kingdoms with suspiciously celtic names; that some british elites 'germanized' due to regular close interactions (intermarriage, leading a mostly...

    WI: Edward VI was killed by Thomas Seymour?

    Thomas is executed the next morning then. Mary and her supporters would seize the throne with the Protestants looking towards Elizabeth orang Jane Grey as alternatives. Mary might be able to get some children here too since she is much younger than she was in OTL.
  16. Feeble Constitution - A Red-and-Green Russia 1917 Timeline

    Hah hah, the Saudis are having a bad time. Which is good, incidentally. The cat would really be among the canaries, not that anyone would realize the full magnitude of it yet, if the Hashemites get control of the southern shore of the Persian Gulf from the Saudis (leaving Kuwait and the various...
  17. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    One attack isn't enough to change the war. Nor did it take a 4-engined bomber to reach Clark from Formosa.
  18. What would the territorial changes be in a non-Soviet Poland, post WW2?

    I don't see realistic way to have WAllies in Poland before Soviets-geography says no. But if we ignore realism of such POD and go straight to consequences: OTL border is ruled out. Poland is given Danzig and East Prussia-that is certain, and likely whole Upper Silesia, Schneidemühl/Piła and...
  19. AHQ: Is a Soviet occupation of all of Germany in WW2 possible?

    You have to push the POD back a bit farther but yeah, it is possible.
  20. AHQ: Is a Soviet occupation of all of Germany in WW2 possible?

    Perhaps D-Day failing or being much less sucessful? This slows down advance of WAllies
