  1. A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    Honestly I read this whole thing as Henry being in love with the idea of Mary to the point of ignoring red flags. He wants this passionate love with Mary so what we see as temper tantrums to him are proof of her love. She wouldn’t raise such a fuss if she didn’t love him right ...
  2. No intermediate cartridge as we know it?

    The ZK 323 demonstrates that the issue of limited SMG range (and they are limited compared to a battle rifle or intermediate) is not so much reach, rather but one of accurate range estimation. The 9x19 or 9x25 can reach as far as the longer ranges on the ZK 323 rear sight tangent. However the...

    The Forge of Weyland

    Pretty much what happened iOTL In 1945 , Leopold was banned from Belgium by the returned Goverment but not prosecuted or even formally deposed (he brother was named "regent" as the king "was unable to rule") There was an advisory referendum in 1950, that narrowly voted to allow him back from...
  4. Best President USA never had (20th century edition)

    I disagree about Marshal. If the POD is that the stroke that Wilson suffered on October 2nd, 1919, kills him, and Marshall becomes President, that date is really too late to change much. By that date, the United States has already entered World War I, the Palmer raids have happened, and the...
  5. Was the Char B the "Tiger Tank" of France?

    The Mémoire Des Hommes database is also very neat because you can actually zoom in on the blueprints and read things you rarely can on usual internet pictures.

    When the Wind Blew: a P&S Open Thread

    God love the English.
  7. China does not take over Tibet

    i would say they would even have less legitimacy if they don't conquer Tibet, there were many strategic, nationalistic, and moral reasons to conquer it.
  8. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    In another forum, I once posed this as follows: "December 1941: Japan attacks Thailand and the British and Dutch colonies in southeast Asia but leaves Pearl Harbor and the Philippines alone, gambling that without an attack on US territory, FDR, whatever he may have promised Halifax, can't get...
  9. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    NASA has to be careful with Star Trek references. The odd nod has merit considering the level of fandom in the agencies most ardent civilian supporters and a considerable chunk of it's workforce but it's also fuel for it's critics that the entire thing is "sci fi nonsense for nerds". Enterprise...

    This entire thing is just freaking wild. Great work!

  13. WI: No Molotov-Ribbentrop

    Unless you bring in Hitler insanity, which in September 1939, before the 1940-1 military successes would just produce a coup removing Hitler anyway, you really have to work to get Germany in a war with the USSR, UK, and France at the same time. Even in August 1914, Germany at least entered...

    Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    I really like what you got here, but I have a feeling that this is more suited to the Current Politics Wikibox thread since it uses politically relevant figures and that 2017 was only 4 years ago. I suggest moving it sooner than later.

    General Freyberg commander 2nd NZ Div had a command tank for part of the North African campaign. There is a book written by the signaller who was part of it's crew.

    What countries would be in this alternate Triple Entente and Central Powers if France had defeated Prussia
  17. A 1919 Kingdom of Syria, without a coastline.

    I came across this map online, and it got me thinking. Originally Sykes-Picot would have left most of the Arab middle east independent but under British and French 'influence.' France's allocated territory was to be comprised of Lebanon, the Alawite Coast, Alexandretta, and a chunk of Anatolia...
  18. WI: No Molotov-Ribbentrop

    Perhaps especially so. Soviet direct threat and Germany's imminent collapse means that the anti-Nazi opposition needs to act quickly and to make deal with the Allies, as long as they still have some cards to play. If, or rather when German economy breaks down and the army is deprived of...

    This doesnt make sense.
