  1. WI: Eastern Roman Empire Christianizes, West does not

    What is your evidence that Eastern Cults were replacing paganism in urban areas? The Goths really converted after they entered the Roman state, and the Goths were at the forefront, Franks converted from the late 5th century onwards and other Germanic people took even longer, without a Christian...

    Look to the balkans.
  3. No intermediate cartridge as we know it?

    2000 J equals the 7.1g (~110 gr) bullet @ 750 m/s (2460 ft/s). OTOH - at 2000J were at the intermediate cartridge territory, in-between 7.62x39 and 7.92 Kurz. Going to 2500J @ 750 ms means that bullet is ~8.9g (137 gr) (= in between the 6.5mm Arisaka and the 7.35 Carcano); at 700 m/s the bullet...

    Given the need for Tudor heirs I think so.

    What happens if Rock Island chooses the Christie Route to American armor for WWII?

    Most Nations did it this way, for balance heavy gearbox in front, heavy motor in rear, plus had plenty of room to work on those items. The US with the M7 Light and M18, both had engines and transaxle on slide out rails for faster replacement than what could been done with the Mediums, that were...

    In contrast to these territories, Urals, Siberia and, to a lesser extent, the Far East, have many strategically important industrial centers. Of the 15 cities with a population of over one million in Russia, 9 are located in the Siberian and Ural regions. With this approach you might as well...

    Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    No, I was questioning the point that he was inciting some unprecedented violence, the motivation you were ascribing to him, and the context being applied to the whole endeavor. The point was always that this was an army of mercenaries who were basically being called to go on armed pilgrimage to...

    AHQ: was Greece destined to be the cradle of European civilization?

    I think Greece can certainly have a weaker role in influencing the future developments of European civilization, let's say the Etruscans and Carthaginians stop the Greeks from moving into the Western Mediterranean and evict them from Sicily, and Alexander's conquests don't go well, Greek...
  11. WI: France gives all Algerians full citizenship during the Algerian War

    It's rather pointless as a France wanted the political, economic and social domination of the locals for the benefit of the pied noir. Granting local autonomy doesn't make any sense in that context as it removes the power of the pied noir and any reason for France to remain in Algeria. Also...

  16. WI: Napoleon becomes a dual Emperor of France and Germany

    As long as Napoleon admired Charlemagne (he visited his tomb in Aachen) it is not strange that he would come up with this idea. I know he was strongly advised to do not take the HRE title but he could have forged a completely new title like Emperor of the French and the Germans. In fact, the...
  17. WI: Eastern Roman Empire Christianizes, West does not

    Aren't most of the German invaders Arians by now? I suspect the whole thing takes religious undertones.
  18. WI: France gives all Algerians full citizenship during the Algerian War

    How come France never tried to downgrade Algeria's status into a protectorate, as sort of a compromise solution? It would've been ultimately doomed, but maybe it would've solved some of their dilemmas in the short run? I was just riffing off the idea of France becoming 40% Muslim, but then...

    Would Beria have been a good leader for the Soviet Union?

    Beria's obvious sadism aside, most people here seem to be assuming that because he made noises about liberalising and pursuing detente with the West means he would be a good leader. Thats an enormous assumption. Not only would his antipathy to 95% of the Soviet leadership prompt a violent...
