  1. Alternate warships of nations

    Assuming you have the Cash prior to late February 1919 you could probably buy the 1 or more of the 3 Admiral class ships the UK was planning on canceling.

    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    No problem! I am really enjoying this timeline so far!
  3. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Is the logo supposed to be a Coca-Cola bottle surrounding the RKO pole? If so, that is a great idea to involve both companies in one continuous logo!

    List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

    The Irony compels me! Margaret Tudor, Countess of Richmond [1] (1457-1512) M. King Richard III of England (1452-1508), had issue 1. Princess Cecily (1476-1529) M. King John III of Castile and Aragon (1475-1530) [2], had issue 1 (A). King Ferdinand VI and III of Castile and Aragon (1495-1549)...
  5. The Professor

    When could an independent/unified Ireland happened?

    Any king would, that's been the issue with Ireland Certainly! It'd also make it harder for him to contain then remove Arthur so would he be able to contest England? What happens with the French possessions? Etc etc
  6. Plausibility Check: is it possible a unified Roman Britain holdout to exist post-410

    I've always wondered if the actual level of Roman control over Britain has been exaggerated. It's always interested me that when the Romans pulled out of Britain, they left behind some villas and other archaeological novelties but almost nothing in the way of cultural or linguistic influence...
  7. Return of Horrible Educational Maps

    We’re talking about a map made in 1583. A discussion of the historicity of biological and sociological race preference is beyond the purview of not only this thread, but this entire website. It is a bad, disgusting joke to claim that Mercator is a racist map projection, or even that a map...
  8. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    I have read the other posts about the fuel, and also wrote some of them. Germans have made a lot of estimations, some were right (we can crush Poland, we're more powerful than France), some were not (UK and France will not get involved, we can crush Soviet Union). Soviets delivering even 60% of...

    These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    Manhattan at least is American, though you are right I’d guess the majority of the population of New Netherlands is in the current New England. So Dutch influences of New England English would make sense. Unless for some reason ITTL New Netherland was more westerly focused and actually settled...
  10. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    I think you're likely to see the rise of a left-wing revanchist state, and I think that Soviet assistance would be crucial in bringing it about. A postwar France will be a chaotic place, with many different factions vying for control, and the old right-wing powers of Europe (Germany, Austria...
  11. How would a presidency of Lyndon Larouche look like?

    I think that he can become president, if he tones down the craziness. He wouldn't even have to change his personality (paranoid, authoritarian, control-obsessed), because at the end he just needs not to be viewed as a lunatic. I think his time to shine could be the 90's, where he presents...
  12. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    Chemical weapons are terrific as long as the other side can't respond in kind. If the other guys have a stock of their own, it is a zero sum game. Nerve agents more lethal than things like Mustard or Lewisite, but they are also less persistent, which means they can't act as a long term area...
  13. No Kriegsmarine cruisers or modern destroyers

    Yes because I was toying around a bit with the initial premise of the thread too. I think the naval dispositions were about as good as they could have been with the forces available. I agree that your strategy could work given time (and the Fall or France) but it wasn't a foregone conclusion...
  14. 2018 Presidential Election

    Michael O'Brien (1942-2013) Conservative MP for Peterborough from 1979 to 1995. Chancellor of the Exchequer (1991-1993), Home Secretary (1993-1995) before being appointed European Commissioner for External Relations serving from 1995 for just a year, before he was asked to become the final...
  15. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    I'd assume that a more professional version of this logo could be used at the opening of RKO films. And the A Coca-Cola Company byline probably has Coca-Cola in script, rather than as part of the text.
  16. Effects and consequences if Brezhnev died in 1975

    Personally this one speaks to me of character and consequence.
  17. RedKing

    WI Francis of Austria, son of Maximilian I and Mary of Burgundy, lives to adulthood?

    True, now that I think about that match would make zero sense!
  18. How would a presidency of Lyndon Larouche look like?

    "So, with a PoD in 1900, the US get Lyndon in power on the mid 1970s, how would his government be like?" The obvious answer is that he would not have the slightest chance of coming to power unless he was very different from the Lyndon Larouche of OTL.
