  1. What if the U.S. outsourced manufacturing to post-Soviet Russia instead of China?

    It has more than enough though, it isn't like Russia is Vatican City. Japan and Germany make more stuff than Russia with smaller populations.

    Is that a Neo-Incan revolt in Peru?

    Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    It seems like a buff at the expense of it being recognizably Third Internationale in any way, which is in my opinion maybe not the best choice.
  4. Would Beria have been a good leader for the Soviet Union?

    For real, unless he had some sick fetish for burying his victims himself on his own property, why not just slip their bodies into the “day to day” flow his agency produced?
  5. Conservative Democrats in the 1990s?

    The POD for this would be Al Gore being elected in 1988. Lets say that his election, and resulting popularity leads to a brief but significant comeback of conservative democrats (mostly in the south and in farm states). Who would be some of the leaders of this group, and how long would they be...
  6. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    If you were to look at the Canon as of 1986, you'd find that Disney will be releasing The Brave Little Toaster in 1987. Not only that, but they'll even consider it as the next Canon entry after Basil of Baker Street.
  7. Mad Bad Rabbit

    Who could have been the most chaotic, insane and "lost" American president ever if elected?

    Maybe only a few things: Brezhnev and Nixon wreck the car and are killed while joyriding at Camp David ; and Agnew resigns in September after pardoning himself on the corruption charges.
  8. An Alternate 1989 NFL Draft

    Good point, and in OTL, Larry Wilson did the right thing in not trading for Deion. This is just exploring an alternate side of things.

    Who could have been the most chaotic, insane and "lost" American president ever if elected?

    He seems like a career politician, not as someone who is completely lost... What about George Wallace?
  10. The alternate US of the Great Nebraska Sea.

    I agree with most of what you say here. The fact that the US remains a sizable nuclear power would play a role in mitigating much of what the Soviets would try and do in response.The US already has lots of power projected at this time and despite what some would want not all those troops and...
  11. Map Thread XX

    Not God's Wind or Waves: The World of Armada-2 I was originally going to make a fancy legend with lots of notes and inset maps for specific regions and whatever, but honestly I just got tired of working on that and the map itself is finished. It's even got a cool title! I'll probably finish it...
  12. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Will disney be releasing the brave little toaster (It was produce otl by disnye subariy hyperion studios (found 1984)) or will another studio do. I am leanign towards another studio. Do you think the oringal book ending would be used in the movie. In the book the applicnes find that the...
  13. Napoleon invades Greece instead of Egypt?

    In a view of the last piece of information I’m changing “almost suicidal” to “suicidal”.
  14. Would Beria have been a good leader for the Soviet Union?

    And? So he was a sick lying bastard as well as a rapist? Or is rape via coercion meant to be better somehow?
  15. WI: Napoleon becomes a dual Emperor of France and Germany

    Abolishing the aristocracy of Germany would have been quite a massive undertaking and would tie down the bulk of the Grande Armee in Germany for years, if not decades. Any allies Napoleon might have had in Germany, such as Maximilian I Joseph, would be lost. Initial sympathizers like Beethoven...
  16. Long term effects of a Dewey '48 presidency?

    Dewey doing something to piss off Eisenhower wouldn't be that easy. But who knows what butterflies a Dewey presidency could unleash? Eisenhower never publicly opposed McCarthy in private he gave the order to "get rid of him" he was also quoted as saying about McCarthy "I am not getting into a...

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

    Really love the Henson Bios, Geekhis, and this one is no exception. Tears were shed when Jim Henson was reminiscing about his life. From Sam and Friends to being at the highest peaks of the Disney Empire, a lot has changed since the time where Jim and Bernie were at a bar and hatched a plan to...
  18. Who could have been the most chaotic, insane and "lost" American president ever if elected?

    Speaker of the House during Watergate. Could've been next in line to the Presidency had many things gone the other way.
  19. Murat joins the 6th coalition in 1813

    I’m talking about the Russian perspective of the last Swedish Vasa rulers based upon their behavior. And, to put your mind to rest, who said that Holstein-Gottorp-Romanovs of that period had been mentally stable (It takes one <whatever> to recognize another <whatever> )? They just had a much...
  20. Plausibility Check: New Netherland Settler Colony?

    My assumption is that the Dutch will work out some kind of treaty with the Iriquois like the British seeing as both of them supported the the Iroquois agenst the French in the bever wars. So I expect the Dutch colonial expansion into newyork will end at thier allies border...
