  1. The camp David Accords fail

    It didn't scare Mubarak, who continued Sadat's policies and witnessed the consummation of the peace treaty.

    Osman Reborn; The Survival of Ottoman Democracy [An Ottoman TL set in the 1900s]

    any predictions on the brewing eastern crisis?
  3. FRG withdraws from NATO

    During the 70s and 80s Germany, while not under occupation status anymore, it was not a fully independent nation either. See Pariser Verträge, 1954. And yes, there was a huge military presence of Allied forces until the 90s.

    The Forge of Weyland

    Ah, the Mutilated Victory claims. What Italy really wanted was Dalmatia and Fiume, which it had been promised in the Treaty of London. Unfortunately Woodrow Wilson was rather against that, especially when it turned out that the Italian-speaking Dalmatians had for the most part mysteriously...
  5. WI: Vikings (re)-introduces horses to North America around 1000AD

    According to the sagas, during a fight, a cow got loose and freaked the Skrealings (who had never seen a cow and just saw a weird, charging critter they'd never seen before). Icelandic ponies (and Shetland) were a result of Island dwarfism and in one other saga, probably in the 900s Icelandic...
  6. No Kriegsmarine cruisers or modern destroyers

    As I wrote before I think you're referring to the Battles of Narvik which as I've also written before was the result of bad luck (loosing the tanker) and bad tactics (not guarding the entrance to the fjord). However, they did perform badly (rather than abysmally) in another way... That is they...
  7. Dunkirk Disaster causes Spain and Soviet Union to join Axis.

    only "if, if, if" can just as easily apply for both sides here, and the allies have far more resources and are in a far better position to direct them.
  8. WI: Demographic engineering in Achaemenid Greece

    This may be close to ASB but what if it did happen? Persians conquer Greece. They for some reason become convinced that Greeks can no longer live in Greece but need to be dispersed in separate geographic ares. They let whoever wants to leave for Magna Graecia or whatever area outside of...

    "Most Interesting Scenario To You" Redux Thread

    One idea I have is a Roman victory in Germany. Or the absence of a Third Century crisis. An other idea would be a four part division of the Roman Empire: -An central part -An western part -An eastern part -An african part Or an absence of Islam which makes ERE an biger power, then there...
  10. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    Ok you got any of your own to counter them? leaving aside the fact not all those figures are soviet figures (and it not like these who did this research were unaware of the Soviet great patriotic war mythology) And what's the end point here, was the result on the ground a Soviet lie too?
  11. No Kriegsmarine cruisers or modern destroyers

    that's way I said in the area, and even then defeat is a big word for what happened. They basically did enough to allow Norway to go the way it did. (basically read NOMISYRRUC's post here) There's also the wider context, Britain and France know Norway isn't going to be decisive battle of the...
  12. FRG withdraws from NATO

    What was it said about NATO "It's to keep the Americans in, the Soviets out & the Germans down"
  13. No Kriegsmarine cruisers or modern destroyers

    If the KM can't chase off/run interference with the RN/MN, then not only can the German not support their landed troops, but allied troops will be much better supported.
  14. No Kriegsmarine cruisers or modern destroyers

    Well, actually no .. the Kriegsmarine never defeated the RN, but still took Norway (and Crete) ... nor did they defeat the Norwegien coastal forts == some surrendered without a shot, but famously, outside Oslo, in the Battle of Drøbak Sound (see wikkipedia) the KM cruiser Blücher was sunk with...
  15. A destiny fulfilled - An Eleanor of Austria TL

    We will see... Margaret is fully in favor of both English matches but she is powerless. Of the ones with power: Henry VIII naturally want them, Charles (who is still 13 years old) is still favorable but Ferdinand of Aragon is working for changing his mind while Maximilian has not taken a...
  16. No Kriegsmarine cruisers or modern destroyers

    The peace in our time is kind of misunderstood in pop culture (Chamberlain was at that point putting a crash military spending and mobilisation programme through) Peace in our time was designed as a last ditch attempt to avoid war, accepting a peace offer while being at war is a different...

    Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    It looks great. I'm happy with the fact that they're not just making Savinkov's Russia into a 1-1 Hitler's Germany parallel.

    Derailed and Rerailed: A story of American Railroading, during the Cold War and Onward.

    So you would think but sometimes people can't stop putting good money after bad. Remember the election map from the election of 1960. The Lost Causers have more to fear in TTL than OTL thanks to Federally controlled of the Education system, and enforcement of Civil Rights for the minorities...
  19. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    These arguments are funny because people think they can easily dismiss statistics that don't fit their worldview. If you have better statistics, you are welcome to share them to us. As long as you don't, your argumentation doesn't have a foot to stand on. Edit: As far as I see these stats...
  20. TL-191: After the End

    I am going to break up my reply into several parts. - Eric Arthur Blair, as IOTL, developed a political philosophy that was somewhat contrarian and idiosyncratic, and broadly sympathetic to the socialist left. As in our world, his experiences serving in the British colonial administration (in...
