    O're Hills and Valleys Reign: A Cumbrian Timeline
    Threadmarks: Chapter 11: Fracture (Part 1)

    Chapter Eleven: Fracture (Part 1) The British church was the primary driver behind the christianization of many Anglo-saxon kingdoms, though it would be wrong to characterize it as a purely british endeavor; many Irish monks also participated in these missions. These peregrini often had more...
  2. Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    @GenghisKhanfan Apparently a big part of why the Hessians were used in the American Revolution IOTL because Hanover was in a personal union with Britain at the time and the mercenaries were more like auxiliaries contracted out by Hanover specifically to Britain. That's partly why I didn't...
  3. The First Quarter of Mitt Romney's Presidency

    Current politics. Closed per posted policy.
  4. Dunkirk Disaster and colonies exchanged for withdrawal from France and Netherlands

    ...OTL they would do the same math I did and realize Germany is gaining too much. Again, while on paper only France is losing stuff, in reality it is *Britain's* ally that is loosing an army and navy, thus weakening Britain itself. Britain had tried for a continental ally since at least...
  5. AHC: Unite a continent.

    I don't see how that doesn't devolve into a semantic debate about where the dividing line of south Asia is, about where southwest Asia and southeast Asia fit, about where the dividing line of central Asia is etc. The Europe vs Asia divide has the widely agreed upon Ural mountains.

    Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    To those who are comparing South Vietnam to South Korea and claiming the former could have been put into a similar situation, i'd like to dispute the issue through maps: Korea is peninsula. The only land border they had with another country, North Korea, was and is still a heavily fortified...
  7. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Other than really wanting Lee because he was great, I have another idea for Death's voice actor. Max von Sydow. Because he was in The Seventh Seal. Though I'm still rooting for either Lee or Ian Richardson since they were so well-cast in OTL.
  8. American Venezuelan Filibuster

    Would it require years of Southern dominance beforehand or would Andrew Jackson be enough?
  9. Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands unto God: A History of the True Whigs

    This is amazing. I really hope you don't lose enthusiasm and continue the story, we need more TL focused on Africa.
  10. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    The German (surface) navy which it did have in 1940 allowed Germany to invade Norway successfully and Tirpitz and the threat she potentially posed to convoys to Russia in later years of the war caused an already overstretched Royal Navy huge headaches. No Tirpitz means potentially more Allied...
  11. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Oh. Well, I read that you were inspired by Grim to have Holder be casted as Death, and I interpreted that as a miscalculation on who his voice actor was.

  13. Dunkirk Disaster and colonies exchanged for withdrawal from France and Netherlands

    In a French/British negotiated surrender I do not see Germany giving up its French conquests. A bunch of colonies in Africa and Pacific Islands is more of a burden than an asset. Even with French warships colonial exploitation requires a large merchant marine. It also gives Germany a lot more...

    Hannibal Hamlin for the incredibly feat of not being Andrew Johnson.

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

    But Geoffrey Holder also played Baron Samedi on Live and Let Die and, unlike Greg Eagles, has a real Caribbean accent.

    Der Kampf: The Rise and Fall of the Austrian Führer

    I would like to see how the party develops. Would it have similar members, similar history? obviously not. This is a fragile plot but i am sure you wont ruin it
  18. Alternate 'Battle of Midway': RN instead of USN, what's the result?

    Depends entirely on what is hit. If it is all four carriers that is going to, at best, put a hitch into Nagumo's giddy-up. if they are all on a single ship, which is entirely possible, the Japanese carriers being 5-8km apart everyone might go after the one ship they see, that would almost...
