  1. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    So with no Camp David Acord, does that mean that Israel will not withdraw from the Sinai Peninsula.
  2. AHC: State-owned enterprises more widely accepted in USA

    According to wiki, a state bank was set up in Ontario in 1922 by the United Farmers Of Ontario, but after the next election and the defeat of the UFO, deprived of their power to lend money. They were sold off in 2003.
  3. A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    They were Tudors and heirs of the Beauforts (who were NOT true Lancasters). If Henry VII had a real decent Lancastrian claim he would have used it instead of taking the crown by right of conquest. And here they are fully butterflied (and Margaret is a Yorkist)
  4. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    True, the late 40s and 50s are the best period for the United States to start World War III, after that the Soviet Union will start to catch up.
  5. The Empire Parnell Built

    What OTL became the Liberal Unionists and the Ulster Tories will TTL become a major part of the Irish Loyal and Patriotic Union, which will be the main centre-right to right wing party in Ireland for the next few decades. You’re right that the Unionists don’t split as OTL, mainly because, once...

    Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    It could, then it could end into a communist Greece for all you know. :angel: In the Turkish case the communist party had its leadership killed off in 1920, and then remained mostly illegal for the next century. So there is a question who'd actually be there to run a communist Turkey. I see...
  7. AHC: State-owned enterprises more widely accepted in USA

    Interesting. According to wiki, that bank was promoted by something called the Non-Partisan League. A similarly named political party was active in Alberta, the Canadian province I mentioned earlier as hosting a state-run bank. Alberta's NPL merged into the United Farmers Of Alberta in 1919...
  8. Caught between the Bear and the Rooster (Stalin invades Germany 1940)

    Germany has lost. I wonder when the German High Command will start talks to unleash a coup.

    A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    No, but they were the Lancastrian claimants. Plus if any one individual won there war it was Margaret Beaufort. But this is besides the point.
  10. WI: Willhelm II dies in 1913

    In contrast to the myths around this forum, Wilhelm II.'s son wasn't a more "realistic" guy. He was easily pushed around by the military, especially the Hindenburg-Ludendorff OHL and would have accepted everything they said. I don't think he would have resolved the crisis in 1914 different than...
  11. A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    The Tudors are NOT (true) Lancastrians
  12. Effects on WW2 in Europe w/ no Pacific theater

    Without the U.S. as a fully locked in participant? Not going to be pretty. Lend-Lease is going to be less generous, especially to the Soviets. Not just because they are the "Commies", although that would remain a factor, but because the U.S. will not have switched over to a full war-time...

    A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    Arguably it ended in a Lancastrian Victory, but that's a whole other can of worms. Besides I acknowledged a Lancastrian victory is slim, unless Edward of Westminster takes after his Grandfather.

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

    Unlikely, unless you can think of an OTL example. Despite Disney putting the effort in to avoid discriminating against worthy talent, the tech industry especially is a 'boys club', even through to today, possibly even more than the entertainment industry (which is saying something). FTH could...
  15. WI: Wilhelm II is a pacifist

    What if he committed himself to things like developing science and technology instead of building a large military? In this scenario Imperial German Army would have 30-50% of OTL budget and the rest would be spent on peaceful matters. There is no High Seas Fleet and the alliance system is...
  16. A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    Lancastrians lost badly in OTL without recovering the Crown.
  17. AHTL: British Carrier Strike

    Bombing the dockyards and the ships in the Mare Picolo could also pay dividends .
  18. Caught between the Bear and the Rooster (Stalin invades Germany 1940)
    Threadmarks: The Conquest of Poland

    May 10, 1940 The USSR invades Western Poland. Surprise is nearly complete and the Germans are in trouble at the get go. It is the worst day of the Heer so far as they lose 26,000 men all over Poland. 5,000 of them are POWs, 13,000 are wounded and 8,000 are dead. The Red Army loses much less as...
  19. Alternate Communist without WWI

    The country with a situation "the bottoms don't want and the tops cannot live in the old way", to quote Lenin. I think that Russia is a good pick since I don't see how the escalating conflicts between the more liberal bourgeoisie, the tsarist elites, the farmers and the workers can be solved...

    A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    According to OTL that’s not what happened.
