    at U.S. Constitutional Convention in 1787, northern states engage in brinksmanship and get deal on phase out of slavery by southern states

    I'm not sure my Polish peasant ancestors living under Austrian rule benefited much from the Atlantic slave trade.
  2. The Last Hanover: The Life and Reign of Queen Charlotte

    Fourth? She'd be the fifth if you only include English queens (Mary I, Elizabeth, Mary II and Anne) and sixth if you count Mary, Queen of Scots. Great update.
  3. Germany goes East in 1914 - French Munitions Production?

    I think it depends on how 1914-1915 goes. If Russia fights a bloody Round 1 with Germany and loses Poland but then gets 1915 to rest while Germany attacks France I think it’ll be in good shape overall to resume the fighting with much better material supply and morale in 1916. I think British...
  4. American Conservatism without Goldwater and Reagan

    Maybe Charles Halleck from Indiana?
  5. The Last Hanover: The Life and Reign of Queen Charlotte

    I love ALL OF THIS! <3 Especially the little foreshadowings along the way! Am I correct in thinking that there won’t be a united Germany TTL? :) (Also loving all the meta alternatehistory Conroy ideas... I kinda wanna see all of these too hahaha)
  6. How would the Incan/Aztec Empire deal with European diseases without a successful European invasion

    I think the Aztecs (not Mesoamerica as a whole, btw) would still collapse, since IIRC their subjects and vassals hated them and would rebel at the first sign of weakness, even though they themselves would be hit by the diseases very hard. The Inca, however, have a much better chance of...

    American Conservatism without Goldwater and Reagan

    Well, couldn't Reagan run for office in New York or Florida (which is where Hollywood would be w/o California)?
  8. WIP Map Thread

    Now I think you have too much Han up there.
  9. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    One hell of an April's Fools joke. Certainly among the best space focused ATLs here. It felt more "real" more comfortable than "Eyes turned skyward" and "Right side up". Whether its because of POD is after I have been born, or just since it proves you could make damn fine lemonade out of...
  10. "Most Interesting Scenario To You" Redux Thread

    An early implementation of the Greek Plan by Catherine the Great results in the partition of Ottoman Europe between the Habsburgs (who take over the Yugoslav lands), Venice (whose maritime holdings expand to include Morea, Crete, and Cyprus), and the Russian puppet states of Dacia and the...
  11. WI Saddam Hussein uses chemical weapons against coalition forces during the Gulf War?

    Thanks blue cat , I was wondering, would it have been all of them, some of them, which ones , which ones had less love for Saddam than Israel. I'm trying to get a feel for how the coalition might have splintered. And whom is critical to the coalition on the Arab side and who's departure from...
  12. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    I understand national self-determination, but if it only applies to the vanquished, then it ought not to benefit the absent (from the war).
  13. What would have happened if in TL-191, the USA won the War of Secession, but under different circumstances than OTL?

    What would have happened if, in TL-191, the USA won the War of Secession, but under different circumstances (with those circumstances being that Britain and France help the CSA, and Robert E. Lee doesn't defect to the CSA for some reason)? Would they still be extremely hostile to Britain and...
  14. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    I think you have a severe misunderstanding of how labor and economic planning have worked in post-WW2 Japan. Lifetime employment was the norm for much of the 20th century and Japan had a very heavy-handed industrial ministry known as MITI. Japan's economy was not an intro to econ model of free...
  15. AHC: Save a notorious flop

    That's not always a drawback though, given Iron-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy, even the Blade films.
  16. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    Not if you consider that it was territory that was removed from a country that lost said war. North Schleswig had an ethnic Danish majority, and there was this whole "national determination (but only when it suits the victors)" thing happening.
  17. American Conservatism without Goldwater and Reagan

    Yeah well I'll take care of those things, don't think too much about that. Is there someone not from any of those states who could have occupied the same political space as Goldwater or Reagan?
  18. "Most Interesting Scenario To You" Redux Thread

    1) American Civil War: where the Confederates win but is forced to evolve into something less objectionable or reconstruction where the lost cause is butterflied. I hate the revenge fantasy option. 2) Rome sort of Screw: Preferably something with Carthage or Gaul doing better. 3) North European...
  19. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    It's still odd/wrong that a neutral DID gain territory from the war IMO.
