    Saddam is killed in the attempted assassination of Qasim

    In october 1959 Saddam Hussein would be part of a group sent by the Ba'ath pary to assassinate Iraqi leader Abd al-Karim Qasim. The assassination attempt would fail however, with Qasim having only suffered injuries to the shoulder and leg. Now the assassination itself went wrong partly due to...
  3. Treaty Ports (Ireland) in WW2

    It gets the right to base intelligence gathering in the Free State. Given the convoys used the Iceland route after the fall of France (aircover and avoiding air attacks from Brittany) the extra bases don't really extend the range of escorts in a hugely significant way, at least compared with the...
  4. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    Huh, are you saying humanity in the original WMIT didn't make it to 2006?:confused:

  6. What if NAZI Germany didn’t build battleships?

    Or encourage the French to take action over either the Rhineland or the Sudtenland or join them over it

    All your questions will be answered, An-son!
  8. Treaty Ports (Ireland) in WW2

    So you think everything up to battleships mustering and refuelling in Ireland increasing their range and effectiveness will result in Germany just sitting back and doing nothing? Particularly when Ireland can’t stop them attacking said bases? Neutrality didn’t defend the other neutral nations...
  9. Publius Crassus (son of the triumvir) Doesn't Die at Carrhae-Who does Pompey Marry?

    Distant cousins also. Still a better example would be Mark Antony’s cousin, Lucius Julius Caesar who joined Pompey while his father was a supporter of his cousin Caesar. Wedding ties usually do not necessarily meant political alliances (see Octavia’s first wedding or the fact who Servilia’s son...
  10. Treaty Ports (Ireland) in WW2

    As I think I said, the forts being in British hands don't make it likely that Germany would provoke a war with Ireland. British airbases are a different matter, but there is no way the Free State government is going to agree to any additional basing rights. Thus Ireland stays neutral and Irish...
  11. What if NAZI Germany didn’t build battleships?

    The issue, as has been noted, is that the British are going to see 100 addition U-Boats for exactly what they are and take steps to counteract them.
  12. Miguel de Paz and the stillborn daughter of John and Margaret live

    Also, here is a possible family tree for them and marriages (I may have played around with Henry VIII and Catherine's marriage) (I'm calling Castile and Aragon Spain for the sake of simplicity, and Of Aragon will be used for the Infantas) Miguel I of Spain and Portugal (b.1498, d.1550) m...

    What are some cliches in a Central Powers victory TL?

    They can trade Belgium for the colonies, and then negotiate with Belgium/France for their colonies. Tbh, Belgium itself would be infinitely more useful, but Willy Zwo wants his African wastelands...
  15. Publius Crassus (son of the triumvir) Doesn't Die at Carrhae-Who does Pompey Marry?

    I havent found anything about him dying in 49bc, he was given a governorship though at the time. I did find a line i just missed about Publius being to young in 58BC to have a senate commission when he began his career under caesar, so thats my bad. Back to Marcus though, he did have a rather...

    What if NAZI Germany didn’t build battleships?

    They're too made in dockyards, and it's not like there's serious op-sec in the 30s, just talk with a worker in a bar, give him a free beer.
  17. What if Mao Zedong was president of the United States

    'Mao Zedong' would have a completely different life experience. First of all, one has to think about how his parents even get to the USA before the passage of the Chinese exclusion acts. It is possible that Mao's his father would have been laborer in the West coast building railroads, and his...

    If Rome got rid of slavery would it have advanced more?

    Sagan kind of falls a bit into that common trope. It's true that the Greeks appeared to be more interested in the theoretical than the practical (though there are limits to this generalization), but the issue as I understand it with Heron's steam engine is there are a lot of technological steps...
  19. The Footprint of Mussolini - TL

    They need much of trade so they hardly care very much. Firstly they might are bit suspicious but at end they probably doen't care anymore.
  20. Peshawar Lancers Redux: North America

    While the effects of The Fall continued to loosen their grip on the world in the United States Teddy had relighted the spirit that had been sleeping. It was now clear that the country was coming back. New York City was reborn and the President campaigned for re-election all over the nation...
