    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    I did a customary search on Henson's religion OTL and it seemed that he was a Christian Scientist before he left the faith in 1975 and because more of a vaguely spiritual person. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Henson That only makes his current admission even more tantalizing. How the heck...
  2. WI: no alphabet

    It is weird to me why the Egyptians never adopted the alphabet despite having some 2000 years to do so. For Chinese it makes some sense because the language has an analytic morphology with a limited number of syllabes. Egyptian was fusional with triliteral roots so qn abjad makes sense
  3. AHC: create an alternative linguistic remnant

    IMO it may be more interesting if Galatian speakers migrate to the Caucasus and settle there like the Ossetians. You gonna see a Celtlang with heavy Caucasian influence
  4. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Very, very different. It's impossible to know exactly how it would play out, but the Eastern Front was the decisive front of the European theatre of WW2. Whatever happens in TTL's WW2 1941-???? (whether it's a phony peace, a more-then-short-term German victory on the Continent, German vassalage...
  5. UAS militarily planes if no Vietnam war

    What kind of planes would the US develope whithout the lessons (right or wrong) learned from the Vietnam War. To start of wail the F-111 dosnt look like it could have been saved even whith a much more positive outlook for multirole aircraft the F-14 was heavily influenced by it, maby that...
  6. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Well... U.S. Embassy in Iraq
  7. Oracle of Sobek 𓆋

    WI: no alphabet

    Ge'ez traces back to Phoenician via old South Arabian scripts, and Hangul was influenced by Mongolic scripts that also trace back to Phoenician. It's totally possible that a "true alphabet" develops somewhere else... But that can't really be predicted with any certainty. The trajectories of...

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    Which polity in Siberia?
  9. The Miracle Man:The Presidency of John McCain

    Or oddly, Trump runs as a Democrat.
  10. Alternate warships of nations

    https://www.naval-history.net/WW1NavyBritish-Shipbuild01.htm It’s WW1 but I find this a pretty good list for the British. Some of these were shut down later though.
  11. WI: no alphabet

    Isnt alphabet going to be developed anew? It was developed only once as all alphabets come from Phoenician (Ge'ez and Hangul aside)
  12. WI: no alphabet

    You asked variants of this question twice four months ago: https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/wi-no-alphabet.501357/ https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/ahc-no-alphabet-abjad-abugida-instead.501549/
  13. The Decade of Disaster: What if the Franco-Prussian War Escalated? (relaunched)

    I won't see Britain crying for a TTL invasion of Rome, France won't do nothing and Austria neither, the real point is, if Italy would be considered a co-belligerent from the German and Russian side or would have to negotiate peace on its own terms - also towards France. I am not implying if...

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    Woooho we made it! Anyways, since the discussion of Russia is here, I do wonder the relations between the bandit/“purifier”-states (Airborne Brigades, HRE remnants, Hellborn, etc) and the outside world. While utterly crippled, unification by the more “killpeopleist” states probably means that...
  15. Es Geloybte Aretz Continuation Thread

    The primary problem that Austria-Hungary has is that it is forever compared to Germany. It's a reasonably wealthy country, its western areas (especially Austria and Bohemia) on par with Germany and France, and even the eastern regions not poorer than Italy or Spain. It's got a functioning civil...
  16. What-if SMG for late 1930s and on

    Does anyone know what barrel length gives the highest velocity possible from 9 x 19 ammunition with a delayed or locked bolt?
  17. Chinese pulls a Russia, conquerors the eurasian steppe

    I think one must look at the economics of the great Russian expansion, and also at the administrative methods by which this vast territory was kept subject to Moscow. Because really, it's not all obvious how a relatively poor and backward Russian state centered in Moscow could send emissaries...
  18. WI: Sega merges with Konami in 2003

    So yeah, that probably would happen around the Wii U years.
