  1. AHC: USA and USSR sign non-agression pact to stay out of each other's sphere of influence

    USA is inviting USSR to invade Europe. WW3 will be a nuclear war between Anglo France and some of nato vs the USSR. Not sure its going to be called a world war as USA doesn't join but what else can you call a war with a few hundred million dead with a nuclear exchange.
  2. AHC: USA and USSR sign non-agression pact to stay out of each other's sphere of influence

    Surely US would only leave NATO if Russia left Eastern Europe and Warsaw Pact.

    WI: Qantas Flight 72 crashes?

    As Tales Weaver said about Northrop Grumman (the maker of the ADIRU) is drowning in lawsuits, does that mean the progress of their UAV program (especially X-47 family of UAVs) may hinder? But the wreckage itself will be like a million pieces, especially when that incident aircraft suffered a...
  4. AHC: USA and USSR sign non-agression pact to stay out of each other's sphere of influence

    Both nations agree not to get into trouble with each other but not intervene if other nations get into trouble with each other.
  5. What would happen to France if the reform concept proposed by Napoleon III in 1870 succeeded?

    with the reforms there could be a military stalemate like in 1914. And if the emperor agrees to stop protecting the pope in exchange for Italian support, the scales could tip in his favour.
  6. Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    Right now, the strategic position of Greece with an alliance between Italy and Turkey and Yugoslavia distancing itself, seems precarious. The terms of the alliance may not be known to the public, but doubtless Venizelos will see it for what it is. I can see a few potential butterflies: a)...
  7. A Time For Greatness: The Alternate Presidency of John F. Kennedy and beyond
    Threadmarks: The 1962 Midterm Elections

    The midterms approach As October came to an end, Republicans were panicked. They had spent the last few weeks campaigning on Kennedy’s handling of the twin crisis in Berlin and the Turkish Straits. Yet now those crises were resolved, and President Kennedy had come out the other side looking...
  8. The Forge of Weyland

    That's not exactly true - there will be some people doing exactly this analysis and they're almost certain to have a decent idea of what resources the Germans have. They just aren't going to have anybody listening to them just yet - but the data and analysis will be there, so as soon as someone...
  9. WI:Counterfactual BMC、Jaguar and Rover

    With Mercedes cutting prices in the 1990s, Jaguar is now seen as more upmarket than Mercedes. Jag now competes with Porsche and Maserati. They ahead of rivals in sale and had amazing profit margins. In 2001, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the C-type, Jaguar launched the X-type, a mid...
  10. Most likely end date for World War I without American involvement?

    There were nearly a million British and French troops on their way back from Salonika when the war ended, plus the British had several hundred-thousand troops in Britain, so not having American troops would make little difference.
  11. Prince Waldemar of Prussia made King of Nepal in 1845

    I wonder will it be quick or be the same otl as prussian has a more strict and efficient military doctrine and say waldemar decide to goes to war with china in retaliation how far can he reach until forced to stop?
  12. The Forge of Weyland

    Most likely an optimistic report at 0 degrees inclination
  13. at U.S. Constitutional Convention in 1787, northern states engage in brinksmanship and get deal on phase out of slavery by southern states

    Especially as, bar PA and GA, the split between northern and southern states roughly corresponded to that between large and small ones, which was already causing heated argument.

    Prince Waldemar of Prussia made King of Nepal in 1845

    Chinese capital? No. Tibetan Capital? Did it otl too many times to count
  15. Most likely end date for World War I without American involvement?

    They will as long as Germany has the means to prop them up. Once Germany is "on the ropes" in France/Belgium and can no longer support her allies, they will fall away, but not before.

    WI: Japan never modernizes

    I think just reverse Japan and US and China, Britain and Russia's fates, have Japan and US go communist while Britain becomes the world power and Russia and China become its partners.
  17. Prince Waldemar of Prussia made King of Nepal in 1845

    Can they possibly march to the capital? (To humiliate wing even further probably this gonna have a manor effect in the future)
  18. WI: Richard II had a breakdown in 1392 instead of Charles VI?

    Philip V worked in the circumstances of no succesion law + he was the closest male kin of Louis X + most of peers, who placed Capetians over supported Philip. I think archbishop of Reims would simply refuse to crown John the Fearless, simply because by agnatic primogeniture his ascension would...
  19. WI: Qantas Flight 72 crashes?

    Yeah i think it would be similiar to what happened after americam flight 191 crashed and the A330 reputation gonna take a major hit (perhaps even causing the next itteration of airbus to get a low sale perfrmance) and not to mention the EU also probably goinh to launch an investigation I also...
  20. Most likely end date for World War I without American involvement?

    Where are the allies going to get soldiers to replace the Americans. I know not all of them saw heavy combat, but just the presence of them war on the German morale.
