  1. WI: Ronald Reagan Puts Anthrax in US Illegal Drug Supply

    Trump, Obama, and either Bush are too close to current politics.
  2. Keeping the British Liberal Party flag flying high

    With the Manifesto they are running on it seems the Tories learnt nothing from their last government's failings and have some awkward electoral albatrores they deserve to be third
  3. Caught between the Bear and the Rooster (Stalin invades Germany 1940)

    I will add some if it is that important to you. I don't see how it changes things much if they lose BT-7s and T-28s instead of BT-5s and T-27s. The numbers will be the same as I think it would be mostly about doctrine and training at this point. Making them BT-7s and T-28s might change the...
  4. WI: Ronald Reagan Puts Anthrax in US Illegal Drug Supply

    First President to be impeached was A. Johnson. Would be the first impeached and removed. The only thing I could think of was to try and spin it as a USSR, Chinese, or Cuban(?) attack. The better question is why would anyone at the CIA do it. I agree on ASB for sure.
  5. Largest possible British India?

    Just how big can it get? In OTL it contained what would become Burma, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and the Republic of India. The Pashto-dominated regions were split between Afghanistan and British India/future Pakistan both as a divide and conquer tactic and so Afghanistan could serve as a buffer...
  6. WI: Ronald Reagan Puts Anthrax in US Illegal Drug Supply

    Why are we choosing Reagan for this? Why not JFK, Carter, Nixon, one of the Bushes, Obama, or Trump? Would make as much sense as a what if, to be honest.

    AHC: create an alternative linguistic remnant

    I'd love to imagine a surviving New England/Nova Anglia in the Crimea's linguistic evolution. Bonus points if the Crimean Goths also survive linguistically in conjunction with these non-Normanized English! :P
  8. No Nakba

    Israel would have to choose a) give Palestinian votes, which will make Israel democracy more unstable or b) link votes with Jewish ethnicity / Israeli citizenship, and thus rule over very large minority who do not have votes and resent Israel, plus International condemnation. I think they...

    These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    @CosmicAsh do the North American nations have strict border policies regarding immigration and travel (and other issues), or do they have an EU-style arrangement? Is there something resembling the OTL US Interstate Highway System?
  10. Why was Hitler so charismatic?

    I'll add that as the Lawrence Rees lecture I linked to points out, Stalin ran his country on the basis of sheer terror. One man he said he'd interviewed said that going into a meeting with Stalin you had to work out where to look. If you didn't look Stalin in the eyes, he thought you were...
  11. Who was better in a fight? Cossacks or Janissaries? (TL Research)

    in any battle Janissaries are better, but Cossacks is more mobile and can pick and choose battle they want. Remember that Janissaries would have Sipahi and other cavalry to fight Cossacks.
  12. WI: Ronald Reagan Puts Anthrax in US Illegal Drug Supply

    What does the Geneva Conventions or the Geneva Protocol have to do with a poisoning attack by a government upon its citizens? They deal with behavior during times of war. Closest one to being applicable would be the Geneva Protocol of 1928 AKA The Protocol for the Prohibition of the Use in War...
  13. Jesus is excommunicated and exiled rather than executed

    Maybe in this timeline jesus becomes a seen as good jewish rabbi or heck even a prophet like elijah ( not thar much ) standing up against the corruption of israel

    "Most Interesting Scenario To You" Redux Thread

    In all seriousness though (Mongol Britain doesn't count :p), I've gotten a little obsessed over the past couple months over a surviving Napoleonic French Empire/Rheinbund/Italian "satellites"... only without Nappy himself - too much on the road to self-destruction :p Let's say he makes a...
  15. Crowns of England and Poland and their Parliments

    The King of England had an official line of succession, which is something that the Kings of Poland tried (and failed) to establish.
  16. AHC: Save a notorious flop

    Triple the budget and/or turn it into a porno?
  17. Crowns of England and Poland and their Parliments

    rather than King vs Parliament, you should see it as interaction between several related powers : - King (as individual and as leader) - Parliament (collectively as leader of nation) - Magnate/Peers (as individual and collectively) - Nobles (or squirearchy) as individual and as...

    AHC: Save a notorious flop

    Just remembered the horrible Percy Jackson films and how they were such a big missed opportunity. If only they hadn’t screwed up so badly in adapting my favorite childhood books they could’ve had a great series on their hands. And it came at such a good time too! Harry Potter was wrapping up...

    Why was Hitler so charismatic?

    Hitler was charismatic but he was also damn lucky, when offered the chancellership his party's funding was running out and he was preparing a revolver for his temple. That's how close people were too avoiding this.
