  1. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Yes, subject to the qualifications of @BELFAST
  2. East first! Europe after a German / CP victory in 1916

    The remaining Serbia is quite small, so I think it can be integrated. But it will not be easy indeed. I agree with many of your objections. The conclusion is that there is no good solution and it will remain a problem area. Croats, Bosnians, Serbs and Montenegrins do share the same language...

    WI: Crete Never Falls to the Nazis

    One of the other benefits of holding Crete is that should give the Greek government some more political credibility. How much? - I don't know

    another ww1 central powers victory

    Let's say the rebellion goes absurdly well with German money and arms, causing as a result that German South West Arica doesn't get invaded by South Africa. Instead, Germany invades South Africa but ends in a stalemate. In the peace treaty, South Africa lost Transvaal to the SA republic, while...

    AHC: No Zoroastrianism (POD of 600 BC)

    Well I never said otherwise. There's really no evidence of a "Zurvanism" at all. Like I said, it comes down to whether Zurvan's role in the cosmology is emphasized or dismissed. At varying times in the Sassanian era, it's my understanding that the role of Zurvan was played up (but that this was...
  6. Is an OPEC for iron ore unrealistic?

    A lot of the shortage boils down to the fact that the sort of sand you need for say making concrete for said building projects has to be "beach sand" versus "Desert sand". Something about the desert sand being too polished. Which means that the obvious massive sources of potential sand (the...

    "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    The Official IRA from the 1960s wanted a communist Ireland north and south as they did not recognise the government of the Republic of Ireland. They claimed authority from the first dail. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_D%C3%A1il So removing the northern Ireland state and that of the...

    Wi,: Senones capture Rome 387 BC

    The problem there is that the Senones were an army, not a horde. I.e. they weren't migrating. We don't know exactly what they were doing, but whatever it was pretty clearly didn't involve their full population, i.e. women and children. So to settle in Rome they'd need to come south as a much...
  9. Germany builds another battleship instead of Graf Zeppelin

    Indeed that’s what I was implying
  10. How far does Communism spread if the US is disinterested?

    But how many of them come back and/or loosen up per OP premise? And I think the answer is, a considerable number. I’m going to put of a graph of the Asian Tiger economies. I’ve also heard this called the East Asian Miracle. But this kind of mixed economy, which often did have land reform...

    DBWI: Would a communist be able to win the presidency in the US if the many far left parties united?

    As we all know, the many communist parties have been a torn in the federal government's side since the mid-1930s. Ever since the old Communist party lost the 1932 election after it went to congress and the Democrats and Republicans rallied behind FDR and were banned the next year. The communists...
  12. what if the vikings went to china

    I mean if the journeys allowed to be multigenerational, and they're allowed to pick up the culture and identity of the places they stay along the way, then yeah otl had descendants of Vikings going to China and plundering it.
  13. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2
    Threadmarks: Story 2551

    North of Corsica, 2000 May 14, 1944 USS Kasaan Bay turned out of the wind. The last Hellcat had landed on her deck just a few minutes ago. Her pilots had scored half a dozen kills including a pair of ME-109s and bombed, strafed and rocketed at least five separate German battalions over the...
  14. What If James B. Weaver won the 1892 election?

    He got 8.5% of the vote, so it's hard for me to see a plausible scenario where he wins in 1892. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1892_United_States_presidential_election
  15. what if the vikings went to china

    How do they get there?
  16. How far does Communism spread if the US is disinterested?

    I haven't previously seen that OP stated protection for Japan and Western Europe, which is way more probable than full isolationist and possibly requires more fighting on American soil (Operation Cherry Blossoms at Night) or the Operation Downfall. So, we are talking about Stalin's Soviet Union...
  17. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    I think Universal should open a park in Japan next. (MCA's got cash to burn, what with three of the top ten Saturday Morning cartoons produced by Universal.) With three gaijin-owned amusement parks in Japan, I think that a Japanese company (I would prefer Mitsubishi Real Estate, a division of...
  18. Germany builds another battleship instead of Graf Zeppelin

    A bad carrier with no doctrine and requiring carrier based planes to be developed. I'd take a battleship over a carrier like that any day. Unless I had 10 years to learn lessons of carrier aviation.
  19. Osman Reborn; The Survival of Ottoman Democracy [An Ottoman TL set in the 1900s]

    Nice to see you back man, hope your in good health. Esad Pasha ''they see me rolling, they hating'' curse Muhammad Ali who started the trend of Pashas and to a lesser extent Albanians from betraying the Ottoman empire for their own kingdoms. Much less in a time of Pan Slavic movements, the...
