    English Canada/French Carolina: A Timeline

    I think a small war between maybe two or three small nations wouldn't be out of the question, but probably not another big war for a while
  2. WI: No Arab and Transatlantic Slave Trades

    Didn’t really seem a good investment in the long term for Spain, in general a early modern state get more money out of free peasants than serfs and more money out serfs than slaves, of course it demand a centralization of the state and greater economic control. They also get more out of farmers...
  3. What-if SMG for late 1930s and on

    Okay, that's fair. Both of these countries have the machines for making the 6.5mm barrels, that should speed up the series production of SMGs in that calibre. The 6.5mm bullet fired by what was used to fire 7.62mm bullets will gain speed, compensating for lower mass of bullet. Both counties...

    English Canada/French Carolina: A Timeline

    Should this TL have any more wars in Europe, and if so, what wars would you guys like to see? A major, continent-wide war or some smaller conflicts? I need something to work on.
  5. Population of Manchuria without a Qing Conquest of China

    Well given the Qing came from there, does this more limited realm remain broadly similar while the Ming dominate the rest of China (sans Mongolia and Dzungar)? If so, and the Ming’s successors mostly take over old lands, then it’s likely these territories all fall into Russia’s sphere of...
  6. The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    A principle that Henry Tudor himself used after Bosworth
  7. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    Takei will have to leave office to take part in the movies though, so he can't be in elected office for that long, with the first movie coming up in 1978 ITTL. I have to come up with some source material for the cartoon since I used some of the episodes from the cartoon for live action. Maybe...
  8. The Tudor Rose over Brittania
    Threadmarks: Tudor Rose over Britannia Chapter 11

    Margaret had to admit that she was impressed with her new sister-in-law. While her grasp of English was acceptable, she still needed to put more effort. But not only was she wealthy, Madeleine was beautiful, and she was slowly adopting the ways of a proper Englishwoman. She had heard that...
  9. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    It might not have doome them terminally, but it did set up two things which massively weaken even Post-USSR states to this day: 1. Made them have to spend their "Post-War Boom" rebuilding instead of advancing, which let the West skyrocket an already large per capita gap 2. Set up the modern...
  10. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Not too much though. I mean, they've still lost Malaya, even if the manpower loss isn't quite as grievous.
  11. TL-191: After the End

    So basically similar to what the Germans were doing in Belgium and the US occupation in Canada and the South where the more quiet and compliant you were the less likely you were to be punished.
  12. What if NAZI Germany didn’t build battleships?

    That was based on OTL perceptions, if they see changes to what's going on they will revise those assumptions. It really doesn't take a genius to see less battle hips and more Uboat being built to assume that Germany may be capable of building more u-boats

    Explain the AH Quote

    I not sure if adding the person who quoted it and the event itself is ok or not, it takes away alot of the chance for creativity by filling in the blanks imo. A line from the futuristic comedy novel American Stars by L. Ron Hubbard (1911-1986), the novel is quite different from Hubbard's other...

  15. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    OTL Operation Mallard delivered 6 Air landing Brigade and the 6th parachute divisions heavy equipment in 256 Gliders (all but 10 landing safely) at 9 pm that evening - it was still day light at this point and these reinforcements effectively doubled the Divisions fighting strength (incidentally...
  16. Population of Manchuria without a Qing Conquest of China

    What would the population of Manchuria look like over the years without the Qing Conquest of China. Would the population be low enough for a possible Russian annexation ?
  17. Would an independent Confederacy have a national sales tax as its main source of revenue instead of an income tax?

    It's probably worth noting that the Confederate government was incredibly inconsistent. Despite being ostensibly formed out of a desire for "states rights," Richmond was far more tyrannical and trod all over states rights during the American Civil War. Why would this change afterwards...
  18. Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    He's an interesting character really, but either way extended the DMZ across the middle of Laos is certainly not going to make him a true convert to the US cause
