  1. Supreme Court after a second HW Bush Term

    Justice White retired in 1993 and Justice Blackmun retired in 1994 - both replaced by Bill Clinton. If George HW Bush had been reelected and filled those two seats, what would be the effect on the court? The OTL 1992 Senate Elections were 57 Democrats to 43 Republicans. A stronger Bush...
  2. More Than A Feeling

    1901 and Going Up (A Collaborative TL)

    The "Brewster" would probably be on the same tier as Gretzky. At least 4 or 5 MVP wins and a few Stanley Cups.
  3. AH discussion: Domino theory correct?

    It assume, mistakenly that Communists agreed on everything, 100% that Marx said. Why did the Domino theorists only contend that it was going to happen in the third world and not the first or second? Europe, the Middle-East, Africa, Asia, Oceania, North, Latin and Southern America were all...
  4. French constitutional monarchy

    I agree, duke of Orleans could be a duke of York equivalent. Though duke of Burgundy, Normandy, Anjou, Berry, Bourbon, Alençon maybe even Aquitaine are all possibilities.
  5. Plausibility Check: New Netherland Settler Colony?

    ...in charge for things to go bad. I had the impression they had trading networks with the Iroquois that the British pretty much just took over. In terms of slavery, I think the Dutch-descended were generally *more* resistant to slavery abolition in New York and New Jersey than the...
  6. Lutheran Henry VIII

    Or German Lutheran families. Were Scandinavian royal families Lutheran at this point in history?
  7. Down in Dixie: CSA Victory TL

    Nether Freemont, or Grant could invade Kentucky without Lincoln's approval. Confederate forces were too weak to take Missouri, most of the State was pro Union. As in Missouri, Kentucky was more pro Union. A faint at Indiana, might draw away part of the Army of the Ohio, but not Sherman's Army of...

    An important player for Rat Portage/Kenora is John Brewer. Brewer lead the 1904 Wildcats in scoring despite being just 19. Brewer is a young megastar who ends up playing all the way into the 30s. He was apart of the inaugural Hockey Hall of Fame class.

  10. Not James Stockdale

    Who would win in a duel? The IJN Yamato or the USS Montana?

    Yamato engaged at Samar, likely under optical control, at a range of 310 hectometers (she didn't have dye bags, but she was the only battleship with white splashes). Iowa and New Jersey hit Japanese destroyers off Truk with splinters from near-misses at 420 hectometers. The technical limitations...
  11. Without the Ottomans, what happens to the Mamluks?

    Ah, you are talking about Egypt, not the Mamlukes. A state that had a vital interest and also guarded the entrance to the Red Sea(because of the levantine trade routes) vigilantly can not be called just a 'landpower'. And you have to separate economic and military areas here. The 'quick...
  12. AHC: The US with a high speed rail system as prolific as in East Asia or western Europe

    Did people distrust specifically for the railroads themselves, or did they only distrust the people who owned them? Would people have a better attitude for railroads, if their owners didn't buy all the mineral rights to the half the land that touches a railroad?
  13. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    There's also going to be some loading from station reboost burns and tidal loads, but on a tank designed to take launch loads while fully loaded with propellant, I don't think anyone will notice.

    1995 IROC XIX ROUND TWO: TALLADEGA At the end of April, the TrueValue IROC by Porsche™ reconvened at Talladega. Only 11 of the competitors showed up.

    1901 and Going Up (A Collaborative TL)

    1906 Would prove to be the final campaign for the Vernon Tigers as the team relocated to Reno, Nevada and became the Nevada Ducks. Technically though Vernon folded and the Reno expansion team added all but 3 Vernon players.
  16. Stupid Luck and Happenstance, Thread III

    Marie after talking with (interrogated by) Kat it will come to be seen as more of her being curious of what was on the other side of the hedge then trying to be with the boys. Of course that will just spur her interest in boys anyways.

  18. French constitutional monarchy

    Titutlar system probably wouldn't change at all or very few. Crown prince would still be known as Dauphin etc.

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

    It seems that they were popular in Europe, but I don't think they really helped in bringing a positive reception to Euro Disneyland. Much of the negativity seems to stem from the opening of an American theme park right in the middle of Europe being seen as cultural imperialism. It was made worse...
