  1. WI: Edward VI dies in 1547 while Henry VIII lives on?

    What if Henry VIII and Edward VI died in reverse order? Edward, prince of Wales, dies of tuberculosis on January 28, 1547. He is nine years old. Henry VIII suffers on in ill health for six more years. He dies July 6, 1553 at the age of 62. All of Henry's health problems afflict him as they...

    WI: Heydrich Succeeds Hitler in a Nazi Victory Scenario?

    Weren't the Nazi long term plans ideologically to wipe out *everyone* non-German, steal and Germanize children that were Germanic enough from occupied countries (which they did in the East) and resettle Europe as a German continent? Not just the East, but eventually all of Europe? Or am I...
  3. Who could have been the most chaotic, insane and "lost" American president ever if elected?

    Well, he was a pretty good communicator, even while he was totally glazed, so that would be a plus.

    WI: Bob's Burgers not aired

    Sam Seder ends up a socialist due to a lack of Bob's Burgers check from voicing the character, Hugo. :p

    WI: Heydrich Succeeds Hitler in a Nazi Victory Scenario?

    Knew he was an evil bastard but damn, that really says something. What’d he do to make men like that uncomfortable?
  6. Could Germany have Caused a Reverse-Battle of Britain?

    The British DID do this. They threw daylight bombers until the realized the Luftwaffe was shooting the planes down faster than they could make build them. They wasted a huge number of planes and crews long before they could really do anything useful That really didn't matter The British had no...

    I don't think the Germans have an equivalent, or any way to force a crossing in the first place.
  8. WI: Heydrich Succeeds Hitler in a Nazi Victory Scenario?

    He made the people who met to plan the Holocaust uncomfortable. He doesn't exactly scream "capable diplomat."

    WI: Bob's Burgers not aired

    I can't contribute much but I will give it a shot. I think the problem with the show is the King of the Hill problem: "It's alright. Is it good? I think so. Its...well, its King of the Hill". Its a lack of thrill problem. Bob's Burgers is not the Simpsons, Family Guy or South Park. Its just...
  10. What if the U.S. outsourced manufacturing to post-Soviet Russia instead of China?

    So why bring up Sebastopol? It's on the Black Sea, too. If Novorossiysk has problems because of the Turkish Straits, so does Sebastopol. Vladivostok actually has a pretty big population, about 800 000 people in the urban area, so clearly it isn't that unpleasant a place to live. It's isolated...
  11. Could Germany have Caused a Reverse-Battle of Britain?

    Not really because A. It's the only way Britain can attack the Germans after the Fall of France. B. Heavy strategic bombing offers the illusion of a way to win the war without risking a counter invasion of Europe with its huge cost in Men, Materials and Money. Sadly for the bomber barons the...

    Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Seems like a task for Mr. Bailley.
  13. AHC: Make the Romansh Switzerland's dominant ethnic group

    So are these people the direct linguistic descendants of Ancient Rome or am I misreading their wiki article?
  14. Was the Arab Expansion Inevitable, and Can It Happen Without A United Faith?

    Before gunpower, "barbarian" empires (Jurchen, Mongols, Turks, Arabs, Berbers,etc.) were established according to the following patterns: 1. Charismatic leader unites a barbarian confederacy. Combined maybe with a population explosion, or a population depression in the adjacent civilized...
