    Photos from Alternate Worlds II (read FAQ first)

    Earth T19 - The Great Khanate St Peter's Cathedral, New Karakorum. Christianity - primarily of the Nestorian denomination, consolidated here the Patriarchate of Yingzhou - is a major religion within the Great Khanate, vying with Islam for the third-largest single religion after Tengriism...
  2. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    It's no sweat on my eyebrows, because I'm also a poor artist who has brighter ideas in my head. Now that you think about it, you could simply insert the peacock feathers around the bottle's perimeter, since it looks intriguingly close to the Peacock itself. If you know about the iconic...
  3. The Professor

    When could an independent/unified Ireland happened?

    I think it depends on Philippe of France's involvement as he switched between the two a couple of times until Arthur's imprisonment. If John is busy in Ireland during Richard's reign he may not have the support for all the Angevin possessions. He'd probably want England in order to secure...
  4. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    OTL there weren't any major wars in Western Europe for about 40 years before WW1 - the Pandoric War tech level seems to be what could have happened if the Belle Epoque hadn't been quite so Belle.
  5. Plausibility Check: is it possible a unified Roman Britain holdout to exist post-410

    Sounds like Artorius in 'Test of Gold' chapter of Turtledove's "Alternate Generals"
  6. A Time For Greatness: The Alternate Presidency of John F. Kennedy and beyond

    Great update! Since Oswald succeeds in killing Walker, I expect JFK's Texas trip to be uneventful.
  7. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Is it the Kzin? Is there some weird legal thing to do with the fact the Kzin have already appeared on TV? As long as Disney are in talks with Terry Pratchett, they could always decide turnabout is fair play and licence the Ringworld parody Strata...
  8. Plausibility Check: is it possible a unified Roman Britain holdout to exist post-410

    Britain was the least organized and least Romanized Roman province. Dacia Romanized in half the time Britain was under Roman rule

    Plausibility Check: is it possible a unified Roman Britain holdout to exist post-410

    I don’t think it’s exaggerated. The general populace of Britain never romanized. Only the government, wealthy folk , and what not romanized. Although it does seem like there was some level of cohesion amongst the Romano Brits, if Riothamus was really “King of the Britons” or if Ambrosius...

    Alternate warships of nations

    Not sure the Brits are going to want a stray Admiral floating around in service of a country that could possibly fight the UK in the future.
  11. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Even without Barbarossa and substantial cutbacks to military operations, Germany's oil industry planners expected its fuel reserves - as a simple estimate of consumption vs production - to drop to 500,000 tons by December 1942, compared to 2 million tons in December 1940 and 2.4 million in...
  12. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Yeah, I guess. I kind of imagined it as a Coke bottle for the RKO pole, but I could see it your way now. I just suck as an artist. Remember, that the logo would be made with actual software rather than just MS Paint. Now, if only I could find a way to include the peacock in there.
  13. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    I don't think Germany would let France radicalize in the same way that France let Germany did. I can't see any realistic German government in a CP victory timeline adopt 30s style appeasement tactics. Germans won't tolerate communists west of the Rhine and the moment France develops any kind...
  14. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    I believe that any country that loses such a major war is prone to revolutionary upheavals. Whether these prevail ultimately depends on whether the reactionary response is stronger. So it depends on organization, propaganda and also external circumstances. A socialist France would certainly...
  15. AHC - Boost production of Saffron spice outside of Iran

    Saffron is the worlds most expensive spice at $5000 per kilo. Iran produces over 400 tons per year, far more than any other country. That's worth around $2,200,000,000 (US$2.2billion) to the Iranian economy. If another country wanted to harm Iran they could produce their own saffron and undercut...
  16. Armored trains post ww2

    Tracks are easy to repair/rebuild. Key bridges and tunnels will be well protected. Hitting the locomotive/cargo is the really the only option if you want to target an enemy's rail system.
  17. ImperialxWarlord

    When could an independent/unified Ireland happened?

    Would definitely make for an interesting TL. Hard to say what happens to England without John or what would happen to the Angevin empire. Would be funny if by not inheriting a mess and then losing the French holding John gets remembered more fondly in such a TL.
  18. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    At one point in the film he also speaks to the actor playing Capt. Richard Todd, which must have been fairly bizarre for him...
