  1. Have the BMW M1 Series be as successful as possible

    The M88 engine in the M1 was used in the M635CSi. It was even slightly more powerful than the original version in the M1. It was also used in the E-28 M5, the original M5. https://www.bmw-m.com/en/topics/magazine-article-pool/bmw-m635csi-top-model-of-the-e24-series.html...

    I wonder how city names would change.

    When could an independent/unified Ireland happened?

    At the current rate it might very well happen within a generation. One opportune time could have been during the Napoleonic war. The irish kept waiting for Napoleon to send support and arms but were left waiting and ending up routed out and detained. Despite this there were mass protests and...
  4. AHC: Non-European Colonial Empires

    Create a colonial empire led by a nation outside of Europe. Note that a colonial power which is a 'secondary European' (European colony which goes on to form its own colonies elsewhere) do not count. The Ottomans count as European for the purposes of this post. POD can be whenever you want...

    Imperial Cult remains Rome's official Religion

    Uh...not really. Certainly Constantine never had problems with them, and those his sons had were independent of religion.
  6. How effective was the Soviet bioweapons program?

    Those two incidents are proof of concept that the bioweapons the Soviets were developing were usable and that they had a well developed program. Now if you are asking if the Soviets had delivery methods and biodefenses, that's more questionable. We were trained in the US army that the vectors...
  7. Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands unto God: A History of the True Whigs

    It's a shame, yes, Sie isn't going to top anyone's favourite Presidents list but she really did the best she could with a bad hand. OTL Liberia was the main leader against pan-africanism and I was originally sketching this out so that them flipping sides was significant but it just isn't. You've...
  8. If Nazi Germany had had industrial parity in WWII, would they have won?

    I suppose so, but that would such a vastly different world that the POD would have to be way earlier, like maybe 1848
  9. Imperial Cult remains Rome's official Religion

    I'm not sure you'd avert the fall of the empire just by keeping it pagan- there were a whole host of political, economic and societal reasons for the fall that would still be in effect.

    Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    No, more that while we feared a Soviet Invasion that might come, for the Eastern Bloc, it had already come, they had been invaded already.

    When could an independent/unified Ireland happened?

    If Hugh O'Neill and the Spanish won against the English. There is a very likely possibility Spain would try make Galeic Ireland a more centrelised kingdom. Also Spain would try Mordernise its military thus making an English conquest of Ireland much more difficult. Maybe have it governed by...

    Is it possible to have a majority German Speaking US state?

    Admit the American Sector as a state after the Berlin Crisis, to show Kruschev we mean business?

    WI: Canada accepts Article Eleven and joins the United States?

    But I beg the question why would Quebec join the US since they be trading one Protestant English speaking master for a second one. They might rebel but stay independent. Unless you making the US bilingual which the English speaking would never agree to. plus you taking about Quebec not Canada...

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    It's only the first day and I think she already made a neutral impression on Alba.

    Is it possible to have a majority German Speaking US state?

    Despite being the largest or second largest ethnic group in the US with its cuisine and loan words present throughout the US and its customs, the german language is today not very large in the US. In contrast Spanish is huge, and more concentrated along the Mexican border, and present throughout...

    Imperial Cult remains Rome's official Religion

    The key is to deny Christanity access to the resources of the Roman State. In OTL, as soon as Christianity was legalized, it alienated and indeed, angered the Legions who saw this as a betrayal. As soon as the early church gained access to the Roman Military, all other religions were outlawed...
  18. Stupid Luck and Happenstance, Thread III

    Another excellent series of updates. The new plane that Jasta 18 is getting and the paint scheme that Ben had put on should be worth a few stories in the local Berlin newspapers and television reports with mentions of the unit's record in the Sino-Korean Conflict. The stories will surely mention...
  19. How effective was the Soviet bioweapons program?

    I know. I live really close to the area where it happened. But killing a bunch of people in a industrial incident doesn't make it a usable weapon. 'Killing people' is rarely a problem, the problem is always killing people you need to kill and not killing the ones you do not.
