    What will happen to the Ottoman Empire if Britain doesn't enter WW1?

    Yes. how strong is French Navy? You are having them fight High seas Fleet, you are having them block the adriatic, you are having them run an amphibious operation against Ottomans? From what I know French Navy was in poor shape during WWI? Edit: oops quoted the wrong man!
  2. Demographics of a world without the Great War megathread

    Maybe you get something like the bantustans, but overall, probably not. The major powers with possessions in Africa would focus on settling the continent and "civilizing"/assimilating local populations to their norms.

    What happens if Rock Island chooses the Christie Route to American armor for WWII?
    Threadmarks: How the Americans trained in WWII.

    The language is period as is the attitudes. Nuts and bolts of operating. Pay attention to the gas warfare and ammunition issues. Look at how cover and concealment from observers by dust and enemy Ruperts are used. Terrain characteristics and reflections are mentioned. Don't knock down trees...

    Request Maps/Flags/Coats of Arms/Heraldry here, II

    Okay, here's the first of your requests. I wasn't sure if you would like all three helms crowned or not, but I think it looks better that way; the alternative is to sit the lion rampant and horns on a torse, perhaps. (as always, click the thumbnail for the full-size image) Now that I've got...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 16: Germany prior to the Second World War

    Chapter 16: Germany prior to the Second World War To understand how the Germans managed to rise from the ashes after the Great War and become one of the dominant powers of Europe, we must look back at its past. The June 28th, 1914 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, the heir...
  6. Independent Schleswig after WWI

    That would be in the period when they gobbled up Austria and Czechoslovakia.
  7. Question: what is the possibility for the German state of Lower Saxony to be named Hannover?

    Not impossible, but it might be easier if Oldenburg remains a state after the war.

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    There are reunification events for all other factions of the Holy Russian Anarchy.
  9. Warships that survived World War Two and should have been museums!

    That's the one. Some of the internal photos really showcase the original 1860's construction. Seems remarkably well preserved for something that was built in the Andrew Johnson administration and that's seen so so maintenance for the past century and half while being used as a floating machine...
  10. What will happen to the Ottoman Empire if Britain doesn't enter WW1?

    If the British stay out the war, the Ottomans may too. The Central Powers win, and the factors that were moving Constantinople toward Berlin continue so that the Ottomans are very much in the German orbit after the war.
  11. The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    Seeing the easter egg Satanist reunification event, can't wait for the inevitable post-tabby submod where the Tabby remnants are upgraded to Velimir and Omsk style world doomsday factions along with the Satanists and the redeemed black league, and everyone else can perhaps reunify russia despite...

    If EIV has his personality mixed with Tudor one Henry would be living all of his life in exile and EIV will probably give the title to one of his supporters or simply take that for the crown

    What will happen to the Ottoman Empire if Britain doesn't enter WW1?

    Capable, yes, but... how busy is the MN elsewhere? The French Navy was not huge, was traditionally underfunded, and had a large geographical area to cover. They needed RN ships to defend the troop transports from Africa for a reason. I think that if the French had tried to block the Strait of...
  14. What if the Soviet Union never existed?

    And this Russia might also tolerate to an extent Germany crushing Poland as Petrograd too may want borders revised in its favor.

    AH discussion: Domino theory correct?

    No, the US policy towards South Vietnam was entirely self-defeating. Back Diem to the hilt or cut your losses. Building a perfect liberal democracy through successive military coups and building a national army by sidelining it are fools errands. The dominos in danger of falling, Laos and...
  17. AH discussion: Domino theory correct?

    The number of Communist regimes in the world grew until the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. That tells me that there was something to it.
  18. What if the Soviet Union never existed?

    Aside from a restoration of monarchy, which almost nobody wanted, I think you accurately described what would happen. The POD is fairly plausible too, if Lenin or perhaps Trotsky died in the early stages then it would fall apart and the whites would win the civil war. Then a military...
  19. Independent Schleswig after WWI

    I suggest a something similar to Danzig I think this will be a smaller problem, beside the minority population Schleswig had a very strong regional identity. I think you simply set up a democratic model and ban any union with Germany and they will pretty set themselves up. Denmakr would...
  20. Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    I guess technically that is correct but there were actually quite a few European settlements in India, both before and after 1757. And then there’s the British Raj (100 years later but still).
