  1. What happened if indonesia become a monarchy?

    Given the fact that OTL Sukarno was pretty much a collaborator of the Japanese anyway, I doubt it would matter. To me the biggest problem isn't the Indonesian Revolution itself, but its end. Wouldn't this make the Dutch-Indonesian Union impossible to set up? This Union was ofcourse pretty...

    Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    ...because I'd prefer the audience be given the chance to make that decision for yourselves. History is never so simple as 'good person vs bad person*', nor should it be. I've tried my best to show Patton and now MacArthur as the very flawed characters they were, everything after that is up to...
  3. WI: Byzantine Emperor converts to Islam?

    That Emperor gets brutally murdered by literally everyone who can get there hands on him. Byzantines double down on orthodoxy or iconoclasm(I personally think iconoclasm stand more of a chance in this kind of scenario) and act aggressively against the Arabs.
  4. The Second Patriotic War - An Alternate Russia TL

    Russia will perform better enough to hold onto their gains in the Brusilov Offensive but not be able to perform these offensives frequently. The Czar in this TL will not take control of the army. The Trans-Siberian Railway will be utilized better this time so a better mobilization of troops...
  5. Alternate 'Overlord' US Forces are swapped with British & Commonwealth, what's the consequences?

    I take it the German forces are positioned as OTL. Unless the US assault forces are beefed up it would be tricky to give them three beaches. But which two of the British and Canadian ones should they land on? Giving the Americans Sword and Juno leaves a Commonwealth force assaulting alongside...
  6. AHC: 8 Wives for Henry VIII of England

    That's the reputation he has in OTL anyway.
  7. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    I would rather that you focus your time on new updates, the existing updates are good enough to be read.
  8. Possible Alternate Jet engine pre-WWII

    For a pre-WW2 ramjet then your probably want to look at Leduc - Wiki Link. If one believes the French wiki on him he started work 1934 and got round the 'starting' problem by carrying it up on a mother aircraft then dropping it. A quick search reveals the rocket/ram jet combo first being...
  9. WI Nazis overthrown from within ?

    And they were right to think that. The Military traditionalists and their industrial backers had no fundamental issues with Hitler's campaigns of aggression. Just thought him crude and uncultured.

    AHC: 8 Wives for Henry VIII of England

    That does work pretty well! It forces him to keep marrying.

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

    I know, it was a joke.
  12. AH Discussion: Portuguese Cabo

    Talking about Portuguese Cabo... no Union of Crowns? Because that changes A LOT. I think Portuguese Cabo might keep Portugal in the Indian Ocean game. They will have a strong colony from which to launch expeditions to India and the Horn of Africa.
  13. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Honestly, I think it would take time away from the next chapters - the early chapters are fine as they are!
  14. AH Discussion: Portuguese Cabo

    I don't think so, the Bandeirantes gave around 0.00 shits about Tordesilhas, there's a documented situation where the Bandeirantes sacked an Incan outpost and went back to Brazil, getting ambushed by Guaicurus on the way back near Assunção. Tordesilhas was a giant straight line drawn with...
  15. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    That's a commonly repeated myth, but it doesn't hold water. Russia was already having tremendous economic growth under the czars; their production of the main industrial products in 1913 was slightly lower than France's, and was growing at a torrid rate. All indications are that they would...
  16. WI: Byzantine Emperor converts to Islam?

    Because it won't be just one guy converting-It would be ritual subjugation of the entire orthodox populace. Not such an easy sell for any guy to explain to his people. And anyways the Ummayads didn't want people converting-They didn't like the challenge to them or their cultural supremacy in...
  17. AHC: The world today looks like this 1962 prediction

    COVID get's an even more aggressive mutation and forces people into this "cars" to avoid any physical contact?

    WI: Byzantine Emperor converts to Islam?

    Problem is, the Emperors considered themselves Roman... and once into the fifth century, that meant Christian. The two identities were inseparable for them. The Empire's religious nature was not derived from its subjects, but rather from what the Empire purported to be - the universal state...
