  1. Would an independent Confederacy have a national sales tax as its main source of revenue instead of an income tax?

    Not at all. It actually says "permanent union" in the preamble to their Constitution.

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

    Damn, these are all impressive stuff, Halloween, Chucky, and Friday especially. Hmm, this gives me an idea for one of the sequels: one that calls out kids instead for perpetuating the consumerist society they live in. Like the plot is some kid pestering his parents to buy one toy, but events...
  4. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    You do not know what you are talking about here. Long Term Capital Management did not believe prices were perfectly calculable- their primary strategy of fixed income arbitrage would not work if prices were perfectly calculable, because if prices were perfectly calculable there would and could...
  5. Sehzade Mahmud (Son of Mehmed III) Becomes Sultan

    Am I understanding it wrong that Ahmed I was the one to "reform" the Ottoman succession that the senior most male succeeds as sultan rather than the eldest son of the sultan?
  6. Byzantines conquer most (or all) of Spain?

    Justinian stretched the resources of the Empire too thin so Spain as Italy will be left to its own devices when the Empire will need to face threats closer to its homebase (from the Slavs or Persian or from the Arabs if they rise like în OTL). As for what Spain will become its hard to say: a...
  7. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    @OldNavy1988 May I recommend some changes to the Ducktales series so that Huey, Dewey, and Louie actually have more of their own distinct personality? More along the lines of the 2017 reboot?

  10. East first! Europe after a German / CP victory in 1916

    Reading up, I'm not really sure what "Imperial diet" I was referring to - I remember reading how the Galician Poles were a vital tiebreaker for Vienna, but that must have been in the cisleithanian diet. Either way, I've deleted the post in question.

  12. What if the nuclear Negev Canal actually existed?

    I love the last sentence of that report It is likely that the Arab countries surrounding Israel would object strongly to the construction of such a canal No shit Sherlock. Though why would anyone object to 500 Nuclear explosions on their doorstep its not as if there could be an accident.🤪
  13. What if Napoleon had lived to age 85-90

    IMO genetics are important,some of my ancestors or their siblings in the 19th century,lived to their eighties or even their nineties and they were no wealthy or powerfull people.

    A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    True, but then why else would York be giving Edward an army?
  15. The Forge of Weyland

    Operation Juno isn't that well known. This time there are a number of differences. I couldn't see why Emden was just sent home while the operation was on. I couldn't find any reason why she wasn't fit for action, so she's taking part and will then go back to Germany There are less British ships...

    WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    Just do what the manager of one of the LA tv stations that was showing Star Trek did , when Takei opponent demanded equal time on tv for Takei appearances on Star Trek. "Cone on down to the studio and we put you in the costume and you can do the dialog and we will edit you in to the show." Takei...

    Yeah but there is a region outside Gibraltar that I nicknamed Gibraltar peninsula, I didn’t know how to name it.

    Mario Goes Hollywood: A Collaborative Timeline

    Well I'd say it's pretty damn good. While it's a bit disappointing that a full version of the plot wasn't made, but this suffices quite well with the opening background, "The Cradle under the stars" Speech and the 'deafening' climax. Shame that it can't be saved, but it'll be 'fascinating'...
