  1. Alamgirnama: A Mughal Timeline

    An identifiable caste system isnt really present in those areas, at all really, apart from certain brahman groups. That attitude only makes sense with a post British understanding of Caste. Because doctrinal orthodoxy was very important to the Lamaist hierarchy, who indeed fought wars over...
  2. Deutschland Uber Alles?

    Massive deregulation of the people transportation business could happen anytime between the 30s and today, giving Uber a chance to be a much bigger. Probably not as big as in the US, due to better public mass transportation systems.
  3. Jesus is born Judith

    A lot of the answers here sort of presuppose that the miracles of Jesus didn't happen--and I have no desire to get into a theological debate--but if they did, and Jesus is born Judith, it doesn't matter, in terms of pure notoriety, that she's a woman. Raising the dead is bound to get a lot of...
  4. WI: Nuclear attack on September 11

    The Russians abandoned the Balaklava Submarine Pen in Crimea in 1995 and forgot some nukes there for years. Sure it would be a bit hard to actually get them: Even if the place was abandoned if Al-Qaeda wanted them they would need people and equipament there to remove the nukes which would likely...

    WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    They were Rome however. Just because the Western half didn't exist that didn't mean they didn't stop being the whole Roman Empire. Plus the other Germanic Kings were nominal Roman subjects anyway. They upheld Roman laws (for the most part) and minted Imperial Coins (solidi bearing the current...
  6. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    I believe they had 3 regiments IOTL. The 1st (The Kings) Dragoon guards, the 4th (The Queens Own) Hussars, and the 3rd Royal Tank Regiment.
  7. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    Mediatisation is the term used to refer to the annexation of minor secular and all ecclesiastical states within the Holy Roman Empire by other states, which happened in 1803 as part of the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss and ended in 1806 with the dissolution of the HRE and the creation of...
  8. Mackensen class battlecruisers in WW1

    Goodenough - who actually lived in my home town & opened the Old Comrade's clubhouse - was operating a long way ahead of Beatty's battlecruisers and managed to find the HSF well enough while avoiding Hipper's SG1. Where were the German light cruisers during the Run to the North?
  9. The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    Is it because of the title’s history, especially with George Plantagenet? Also, Richard de La Pole is still alive, so there’s that threat still
  10. WI French capital isn't Paris

    No, I don't think so... He have many plans to build an even bigger and nice Paris.
  11. WI French capital isn't Paris

    The Loire river is very unpratical for river navigation, while sea ships were able to as far as Paris...
  12. Mackensen class battlecruisers in WW1

    Maybe I was inaccurate in attribution, but Goodenough was operating as part of Beatty’s unit, and his light cruisers could not have done that job without the presence of Royal Navy battlecruisers. During daylight the British knew where the Germans were and the converse was not true. Night...
  13. WI French capital isn't Paris

    If the Germans take Paris in 1914 during WW1, couldn't they move the capital to Bordeaux and continue the fighting from there?
  14. Deutschland Uber Alles?

    No realisting plan according to the Nazis. You will forgive me if I disagree with their economic assesment. On principle already, though the 80 Years of Hindsight also help.
  15. Do you think the Union would have won a Civil War beginning in 1856, 1852, or 1848?

    What about a less-discussed date: 1832? At that point, South Carolina adopted the Ordinance of Nullification which nullified the Tariffs of 1828 and 1832. If more states were on the same page as South Carolina, then you could get a civil war even before 1848. Whether or not the Union wins, IDK...
  16. With a POD in October 1918, how much longer can WWI last?

    Ironically a more bitter end would somewhat reduce the effect of the stab in the back thing, but it would depend on the how. If it leads to the Entente going forward and invading mainland Germany and marching to the Elbe for example it will be very hard to claim there was some sort of sabotage...
  17. Scenes from other worlds

    Looks like my inspiration right now is all for ”A destiny fulfilled“ who has 9 chapters in less than a month. Still I have also updated Lotharingia reborn with a chapter about English aristocracy (who tell the fate and marriages of many well know characters including Warwick, Margaret of...
  18. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    Thinking about this topic and others made me conclude that we have a few different levels of POD. Plausible or realistic PODs. Such as Hittler dies in the explosion. Extreamly unlikely but arguably not IMPOSSIBLE POD. And full on ASB level. But we also have to look at them from an...
  19. Deutschland Uber Alles?

    Konrad Hermann Joseph Adenauer becomes Chancellor in 1932 and sails Germany through the rapids and pitfalls of the mid 30s into a bright new future, reconciles Germany with France in the early 40s (and together forming the core of a powerful central European Block that keeps the Soviet Union...
