  1. WI: Iraq invades Saudi Arabia?

    I read that too But they did shoot down an Iranian F4 Big question is how will they handle continued air operations and massed air assaults as Iraqis do have numbers on their side and how good they are at interdicting Iraqi ground forces and navy

    Agreed. My first question about Fort Knox is what would happen if some survivors purposely raided or accidentally stumbled into it. As people said, while gold has no monetary value, the metal can be used for medicine and dental practices if not for making crude ammunition. Secondly, since the...
  3. When could an independent/unified Ireland happened?

    Even if you regard a British ceremonial monarch as being "ruled by the English" (something I'd question - I don't know that Canada and Australia are ruled by the English), once the country becomes independence in practical governance, it can always vote to become a republic a few decades later.

    at U.S. Constitutional Convention in 1787, northern states engage in brinksmanship and get deal on phase out of slavery by southern states

    White privilege as far as I know is something that I have only heard of from America.

    When could an independent/unified Ireland happened?

    Which ones though? After James they're essentially British, Dutch, German, before becoming British again. Elisabeth Tudor was the last English Monarch of Ireland and her dad might best be described as AngloWelsh.
  6. Lebanon joined the United Arab Republic?

    Given the abysmal state of the Syrian army yes. Arab militaries have similar problems even this day. https://www.meforum.org/441/why-arabs-lose-wars
  7. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Meh....kinda feel like New Orleans on its own was enough to push it into “draw” category

    WI: Miles "Tails" Prower was made in 1991 as Sega's new mascot?

    In 1991, Sonic the Hedgehog was made as Sega's new mascot, replacing Alex Kidd. Sonic would go on to be one of the most famous video game characters in the world and his titular video game franchise would also go on to be one of the bestselling ones. In 1992, Miles "Tails" Prower was made as...
  9. The Plantagenet Succession
    Threadmarks: The Power of the Plantagenets - by Alison Weir.

    An excerpt from The Power of the Plantagenets - Published June 6, 1999, by Alison Weir. Richard III, known as the Tyrant, died in the Fire of Sheen Palace on December 16, 1544. Some say it was smoke inhalation that killed him, others say it was his massive belly - the latter would be right...

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    The french reaction is my favourite!
  11. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    ...with 100 octane fuel than 85 octane fuel? FuG 25 IFF systems, ZG 1229 nightsights, Z3 computers, etc. Why do you believe this...? Because *that* wouldn't be an automatic target Swept-wing aircraft along with most first-gen postwar fighters would like a word. They were among the...

    Thank you, good sir. (One question, however, why are those Siberian states Pastel Green/ Unclaim land?)

    Why is Europe’s population (comparatively) low?

    Did the european living cost spiked after the 1970s? Some times people want to have many children, but they will starve if they do.
  14. Exploration without Christianity

    But the problem is, there is no data to answer the question with beyond massive swarms of butterflies. OTL's pressures may as well be there or not, for the wildest or the tamest of reasons, but it really boils down to cherry-picked conjecture.
  15. An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    This may be a boon for Francis, especially if Henry aligns with him out of spite towards Charles... Still, I suspect his gains will not be as large as he hopes... Charles, despite a lack of enthusiasm from some of his subjects is still Holy Roman Emperor, King of Spain (I refuse to be pedantic)...

    Why is Europe’s population (comparatively) low?

    Because there's a lower birthrate, meaning there will be less bounce-back.
  17. WI: Germany does not support Austria-Hungary in WWI?

    Germany would become a Russian protectorate. It would certainly be better than what happened. A middle ground would be to tell the Austrians to start being realistic in their foreign policy. They just aren't strong enough to fight the Russians, Serbs, Romanians and the Italians. They need to...
  18. WorldA Maps for Official Alternate Timelines.

    No, it's not, as of the After Midnight update. The good news is that I made one that's up-to-date myself over the past week:

    WI French capital isn't Paris

    I’ll cop/apologize to poor wording. The Duchy of France just being a modern version name of “Francia/of the Franks”, which if I remember off the top of my head was roughly equivalent to Neustria anyway - colloquial terminology and all that.
