    AHC: Romance languages disappear

    Even if the plague hit at the same time I don’t think it would cause the Romance languages to collapse. Seeing as how the Germanic peoples wouldn’t be immune either.

    A New Dawn Rising: What if America stuck by her ideals?
    Threadmarks: Chapter Thirty-Five – The Conference Of New York

    Chapter Thirty-Five – The Conference Of New York America had a golden opportunity with the end of the Spanish colonies in America . Its ideals of freedom could now be spread. To that end a Conference in New York would be created, which was to be held in 1823. One that would begin something that...
  3. AHC: State-owned enterprises more widely accepted in USA

    I will have to humbly disagree there. We had one. We did nationalize the banks. The Bank of Canada should be reinstated to its original mandated purposes

    AHC Plan a successful Anti-Nazi coup

    Could, not would. It's more likely a civil war happens with the SS a major player in the unrest. If you define the coup as "depose the Nazis as the stable government," sure. But if you define it as the conspirators holding and keeping power... that's not happening without a lot of POD's before...
  5. WI: No Arab and Transatlantic Slave Trades

    Both the Arab Slave Trade and Transatlantic Slave Trades never happen. While Africa still has its own slavery, African slaves are never exported outside of Subsaharan Africa. How would this affect Subsaharan Africa, the Arab World, and The Americas? I assume Africa will have a higher population...

  7. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Hmm...Maybe we show Barney training under a great Wizard and using a duckie Umbrella as a Magical Spear-Wand thingie in combat after Tray and his buddy Matt Stone watch some Highlander.
  8. AHC Plan a successful Anti-Nazi coup

    Operation Spark. Have it go as intended with the plane exploding over Minsk so it can be blamed Soviet planes. The important factor in any anti Nazi coup is making sure the assassination isn't traced to the coupists, since they would be viewed as traitors by the armed forces and German...

    The Eternal Empire: Emperor Maurice dies before being overthrown

    Well wasn't Constantinople burning and the Theodosian Walls being broken stated here though?

    Alternate Communist without WWI

    In my opinion, without a major European conflict, you'd be hard pressed to see a Revolutionnary Communist regime takeover in the West. These kind of massive and violent revolutions need a catalyst to succeed. This catalyst is essential to erode the loyalty of the forces of suppression (usually...
  11. AHC Plan a successful Anti-Nazi coup

    I wish Elser had succeeded. Leaving this aside- there was a 1943 plot by a potential suicide bomber to take out Hitler when Goering, Himmler , Keitel and Doenitz were with him. If that had happened..
  12. Who could have been the most chaotic, insane and "lost" American president ever if elected?

    If we’re going with someone who could plausibly have risen to the office, John McCormack. And it came dangerously close to happening - a member of LBJ’s Secret Service detail almost shot him by accident less than 12 hours after JFK was shot. That particular person mistook LBJ for an intruder at...
  13. AHC Plan a successful Anti-Nazi coup

    As I said, if the foundation of a coup attempt could be laid, the coup would work. Without said foundation the coup couldn't work of course.

    AHC: Romance languages disappear

    But there was a Roman elite that the barbarians relied on to administrate the kingdom on their behalf. Like I said, have something resembling the Plague of Justinian hit Europe around the peak of the barbarian invasions or delay the fall of the Western Roman Empire by one more century.
  15. AHC: State-owned enterprises more widely accepted in USA

    Why the hell the rest of the country should subsidize electricity prices in Tennessee is beyond me.
  16. WI/AHC: Independent European Colonization

    Was it ever possible for European colonization of the world to be more like Ancient Greek colonization, with settlers migrating and establishing polities completely independent of the home country, instead of OTL's government sponsored colonization? If so, how would this effect the world? From...
  17. Caught between the Bear and the Rooster (Stalin invades Germany 1940)

    The French have even less love for going round 3 with Germany. The least she would ask for is the 1936 borders and Germany wouldn't agree to that. Germany is basically hosed like in OTL only earlier.

    Threadmarks: Chapter Thirty-Four – The Empire Crumbles

    Chapter Thirty-Four – The Empire Crumbles Ferdinand had taken control of Spain but the Spanish empire was not doing so well. Despite his efforts to reform, Ferdinand was caught in the middle of a hailstorm. Nobel’s, liberals, extremists all began to demand different things with none of them able...

    What are some cliches in a Central Powers victory TL?

    Exactly. There were a dozen or so southern states which, by disenfranchising nearly all blacks and a good many of the "po' white trash" as well, put a disproportionate share of control of both houses of congress into the hands of a very narrow electorate....
  20. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    True, Hoover did not completely sit on his hands during the Depression, in fact I've heard some hardcore conservatives decry him as "FDR light" though his response to it was wholly inadequate, and rather than recognize his shortcomings he instead doubled down on supporting his policies after FDR...
