    A Carthage Scenario TL discussion?

    Punic religion had a polytheistic pantheon of gods. The wikipedia page actually provides a nice rundown. Not entirely sure, but the Romans identified him with their god Saturn. He was the head of the Punic pantheon and was associated with fertility and weather. It's been postulated that he's a...

    In this country , it is good to kill an admiral from time to time

    Let's hope Brazil will catch a break and be allowed to rebuild.
  3. WI: HRE Matthias has a son

    I'm not sure Klesl was a pacifist per se, more that he was just pragmatic especially compared to Maximilian III and Ferdinand II (for whom Max served as regent). I think Klesl also tended to approach conflicts from a political rather than religious perspective (ironic considering he was a...

    Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    The fact that he also had pneumonia and had a stroke is most likely reason that he died in 1936 but if i had his death certificate and autopsy (if they did one) could be helpfull..for example if i knew which coronary artery was blocked i could tell if he would survive the myocardial infarction...
  5. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    This. Anyone with half a brain would realize the most likely result of another conflict with Germany is going to be the defeat of and likely dismemberment or complete subjugation of France. Because it would be the FOURTH time in two centuries that France has gone to war with Germany. As to...
  6. Sports What Ifs.

    I don't see Jimmy going to the USFL at that time. He probably stays at Oklahoma St. for two more years. Then, at the end of the 1985 season, the job at Pitt (Johnson used to be an assistant there) opens up after Foge Fazio's firing, and Jimmy Johnson goes there to be the head coach. With Jimmy...
  7. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    Well Star Trek has been mentioned as when Ed had the ending of Wrath of Khan revealed to him out of spite. Im not thinking its Space 1999 instead of Trek but that Space 1999 as well as perhaps other sci fi shows like TOS BSG were more popular ittl and had longer runs on television. Something...
  8. List of monarchs III

    I am just imagining 12-year-old Charles and 21-year-old Katherine arguing with each other over who should be the next monarch of Waterloo.
  9. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Sure thing! Least I can do to help my favourite timeline!
  10. Explain the AH Quote

    If not, i'll make one up: "Harpy is a statue of a feathered, vulture-headed woman regurgitating food for her babies. Its meaning is ambiguous by its creator, and has been interpreted in many ways: some say a satirical work commenting on western society's aversion to bared nipples, as the woman...
  11. When the Levee Broke: An Alternate Lincoln Assassination and Beyond

    One correction: you refer to a location in MD some few miles north of Baltimore as "Cockneysville". The location is actually "Cockeysville": I should know, since I was born/raised in Baltimore County.
  12. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    True, very true. But the left always pretends to be opposed to nationalism and imperialism on principle and tries to associate these with the far right (even when they themselves engage in these things). I would think that after defeat by the Germans they would distance themselves from...

    Explain the AH Quote

    What's your new quote?
  14. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    I suspect only Russia is likely to join a second war against Germany, though they will definitely be stronger. Italy may as well but they're probably no stronger than France at this point. As for Germany, my idea was that they only took a border strip from France (which includes Briey-Longwy and...
  15. Would black population growth be higher in an independent American South

    Typically yes, rural populations have higher birth rates then urban ones. But there's no direct line between low material standard of living and high population growth (there is a much clearer link between high material standard of living and low population growth, but this does not imply the...

    Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    MS-405 did not crash in OTL. LN-161 did crash on the other hand. Only when comparing the two LN-161, was faster, with a higher climb rate, better flying characteristics and required fewer man-hours to build... He also caught pneumonia while in exile in Paris . By all available accounts he had...
