    Possible Alternate Jet engine pre-WWII

    ...I do know the ramjet principal was known early in the century, and models were made, though due to limitations were never actually flown I thought. *shrugs* I really need to go into the history of this a little more. I was more wondering if there was a way to force the supersonic flow inside...

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

    But could they protect the Nationalist areas too? I think more troops would be needed.
  3. The flame of British Liberalism burns steady and brighter: A timeline from 1945

    The satire boom of the 1960s, such as the magazine Private Eye and the television programme That Was the Week That Was satirised the Labour government as part of a fuddy duddy, out of date, establishment. Labour countered by calling the satirists upper middle class Tories.
  4. Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    ...that plan and cheer you on when you are doing it on their territory. Because you are the good white hat US fighting evil/nasty black hat commies. *and yes we know the reality of the the various communist regimes afterwards (especially Cambodia) but that's in hindsight and it ignores the...
  5. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    There's a common failure where people prefer not to think of empire and colonisation as systems of thought, governance, belief and economic structure; how much nicer to concentrate on the crimes of individual actors. The settlement of 'the frontier' was genocidal, and had been genocidal well...
  6. Third Bard's the Charm: A High Byzantine TL

    Is Bardas preparing to invade Sicily? Or an invasion into the levant?
  7. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    I assume that the war will be because of sub warfare sinking an american ship going to PI or european colony or China? Where Japan would be in worse shape to face the US and it's possesions and allies.

    Here's North China.
  9. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Well according to the BBC, in the early 1970s, 21,000 soldiers were deployed in the North which peaked to 30,000 in the mid 70s. That represents about 2% of the population of the North. It is not entirely clear how many soldiers were present in '72 though. I would imagine more than enough to...

    AHQ: Samnite names

    Are you asking for Oscan naming conventions? Because everyone has a praenomen and a gentilicium; usually we’re also told what their father’s praenomen was too, in the genitive (in Latin this is followed by f. for filius ‘son’). An example of such a name would be Pakis Kluvatiis Marahieís...
  11. Alternate History Excercise: Create non-Abrahamic, Abrahamic Syncretic, Alternative Abrahamic Religions in Europe!

    I'd consider any Gnostic sect as Alternate Abrahamic Religion. Perhaps if Catharism lasted longer than in OTL it would evolve more distinctivly.
  12. Third Bard's the Charm: A High Byzantine TL

    I admit I am not knowing much about this period, at least in the Far East, or about Italy, it was sort of a lull period, at least for me, aside the Norman ascendance, also because we are in the period before the Investiture controversy. I guess I'll have to give a look to my Uni middle age...

    Amazing work! Have you already posted this on the Map Thread? That's the page most people use to post or look at maps. Might be a good way to show your project and get more people interested in it.

  15. Stanley Baldwin's Successful Political Gamble: A TL from 1923

    Earl Baldwin of Bewdley (Stanley Baldwin) died on 14 December 1947. He was 80 years old. He took a gamble in calling a general election for December 1923 on the issue of protection. The Conservatives had a majority of around seventy in the House of Commons, enough for a five year term...
  16. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    If Japan refuses to declare / massive attack USA (i.e. beyond the occassional explained away 'mistake' that 'our submarine thought that Aircraft Carrier was French'), it comes down to FDR / Congress and the American public .... Sooner or later the Japanese will decide to 'liberate' British...
  17. Largest possible British India?

    The Persian Gulf colonies were administered at one point from the Raj. There are also many Indians that moved to East Africa

    Aww, thanks for the compliment. I enjoy writing this :D
  19. The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    Don't forget. Richard the Lionheart died from a crossbow bolt and thus allowing John to take the throne because he had no kids
