    WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    "Various forms" is extremely various, though. The Constantinople of 1400 A.D. had essentially nothing in common with the Ravenna of 430, let alone the Rome of 100 B.C. The China comparison strongly implies a hegemonic ethnolinguistic group (which you could only really get in the Roman West...

    Isn't victory disease beautiful?

    Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    Not to mention that the slave population in the U.S. IOTL was already far larger than the slave population in the British Empire in 1833 (850,000 in the British Empire, compared to two million in the American South). In addition, slavery in the Caribbean (where most of the British Empire's...

    The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline
    Threadmarks: Part LVII: The Fall of the Golden Horde (1527-1530)

    I'm not saying that this is the final version, nor am I saying that it's not. I'm just kind of uncertain about this, because I got a bit carried off into the thematic elements of the story and less focused on the realities, if you catch me drift. Part LVII: The Fall of the Golden Horde...

    The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    Thank you all. I'm not sure. I'll get back to you some, I'd like to do some research on contemporary military tech before I say anything concrete. I don't suppose you'd have any suggestions? Obviously, though, the collapse of the Silk Road is going to be a pretty bad problem for the...
  6. WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    wouldn't they already this until Ottoman collapse ? look at hos similar Ottoman map with Eastern Empire, its Sultan even had title Caesars of Rum. as for change of Capital, chinese capital move east from xi'an to chang'an to luoyang to nanjing, and eventually move north to Beijing. China...

    The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    That may or may not be planned for the future. I will be trying to have a 'good' outcome for David, but I want to make sure it's in line with his character and make sense. I was actually using blue text for the last section, but forgot to add it in once I pasted it in. David does indeed have...
  8. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    Yeah, it makes sense; William Shatner played a serial killer in the bad 1974 movie Impulse, which was a proto forerunner to The Stepfather...
  9. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    Nichelle Nichols in Truck Turner IRL was also very against type, so why not give Doohan that kind of role ITTL?

    What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    Hmmm. The USN changed the way it built its subs, (Squalus is the classic example, Thresher is the other.). Hydrogen gas venting and chlorine poisonings are no joke. NAVOL fueled torpedo fires fall within this category of accidents, as do mistakes in battery monitoring and maintenance. So...

    The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    *Mutters* Alright, you get a pass this time. ;) Thanks. I'll keep going as best I can. I'm quite invested in this TL, but IRL stuff can be quite draining.
  12. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History
    Threadmarks: 2002 Part 3

    As the United States marched into war, President John Kasich (R-OH) would see a meteoric rise in the polls. He had topped out below 45% as Candidate John Kasich in election polling, but saw a gradual rise after taking office. Tracking it month by month made the trend clear. Approval rating of...
  13. These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    I think for me, the best way is to separate New York as New Netherlands if the Dutch had kept control of the colony. So, what's going on the Brooklyn? How would the New Englanders could see the New York and what does skyscrapers of Brooklyn would look like? Another N.Y. on the Brooklyn but I...
  14. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    Tabun, sarin, ect. aren't all that hard to manufacture. Unless the Soviets get knocked out of the war in a few months, they would be able to produce and deploy it on a large scale against the Germans.
  15. WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    We have a good Majorian TL about this. If Rome survived the crisis of 400s, it could survive until today. There would be enough economic and population growth to assimilate whatever group of Germanic warriors or horse nomads attack it

  17. Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    Interesting will consider that as I write. I'm welcome to other suggestions too from other people and will probably look to make a hybrid out of them.
  18. With a POD in October 1918, how much longer can WWI last?

    I'm assuming that there wouldn't be any "stab in the back" myth?
  19. WI: DPRK liberalizes in roughly the same time as China

    What was the mindset of Kim Ir Sen? He lived until 1994. It is he who has to do the reforms. Was he a diehard communist or would he fold under Chinese pressure?
  20. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    Talk about being against type for Doohan, given what Walter winds up doing in the movie (the original only, of course)...
