  1. President Stassen - in 1968?

    Offered himself as a peace in Vietnam candidate in 1968.
  2. Crimson Banners Fly: The Rise of the American Left

    Oooof... now the vultures will be coming
  3. AHC: Create an exotic party system

    If anyone has any questions about the setting more generally I'd be happy to provide! It might help me think through lore details I hadn't considered 🤔 and yes to anyone curious, the President Scott is Howard Scott of Technocracy, Inc.

    New Alternate World Films

    Here are some upcoming films to flag for watching: Exodus (2021) Doors (2021)
  5. For Want of a Word – Stolypin endures

    By the way, AM I THE ONLY LITERATURE AFICIONADO HERE? Does no one else want to know how will literacy develop in TTL's post-war Russian Empire? I think there was a brief discussion about this some pages back, but I am likewise interested. My random thoughts: Pretty much everyone who had to...
  6. AHC: As big a Eurozone as possible

    How big can one make the eurozone without euroscepticism from both the left and the right stopping it. Can one make it so Britan does join the Euro? and possibly get countries like those in the Balkans and Turkey to elect left leaning governments who can then join the eurozone?
  7. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    A pity, it will be the mother of all crossover, after all if we had the enteprise crossing over with other franchise (Doctor Who, Transformers, X-men) this situation can be an incentive for a team-up even if not really canonic just a one shot or a media tie-in for videogame
  8. American Venezuelan Filibuster

    Admittedly Venezuela might be a little big for a band of slave-loving cowboys to take over but I thought the period of instability would give such an event a better chance of happening.

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    Quite! Good point!
  10. What if Cao Cao won?

    Cao Cao was a major figure in the Three Kingdoms era in China, and was the villain of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. His plans to unify China failed. What if Cao Cao had succeeded in this time period?
  11. Crazy sequels that never happened: what if they did?

    Winston Groom wrote a sequel: Gump & Co. I remember once reading about plans to make a movie also, but that only goes till 1995
  12. Ottomans in CP Victory?

    In this timeline the CPs make a separate deal with Kerensky's Russia, so IDK how much they'd get in the Caucasus. Would Britain really be willing to abandon its conquests to save France? They really wanted Mesopotamia, and Lloyd George was apparently willing to consider a peace that would let...

    For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I liked the space crews bonding over burgers and JD. Did the Apple Macs of that period really not have anything but HUGE text and no interface? I remember even DOS programs having GUI. The 11.59 meeting was cool. I do feel the young genius may cause herself resentment among co-workers for...
  14. Alternate Hundred Years War with England-Scotland Personal Union

    How would the war play out if the Plantagenets had control of Scotland? The POD would be Edward II marrying a surviving Margaret maid of Norway and become king consort. now, they have been betrothed since childhood and i assume there would be some urgency from Ed I to produce an heir to...
  15. WI: The Kushans destroy the Parthians

    @John7755 يوحنا sorry for the ping but this is your expertise
  16. Ottoman Empire & Austria-Hungary collapse naturally?

    By the way, this is also a no Holocaust timeline. If we accept the video's contention that there is no impetus for the Armenian and Assyrian genocides if the Ottomans stay out of World War I, which I don't, then it's that much harder for Hitler to sell the party on the Final Solution. Maybe he...
  17. Mad Bad Rabbit

    What if America banned guns instead of repealing prohibition?

    Yeah, I added the exception to respond to your initial valid point.
  18. Was it surprising Argentina didn't become a decent size power or at least a dominant economy?

    Maybe I'm being unclear. Say BuE&P spends US$100 mil/yr printing notes. Of that, 80% (IIRC) goes to $1 notes. (The actual amount, IIRC, is around US$700 million. :eek: ) I've heard the suggestion to stop the $100 for that reason, too. I've also heard there are exceptional-quality fakes...
  19. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    While Fox has distro rights for the original Star Wars (a.k.a. A New Hope), the IP is all Lucasfilm. I doubt he'd agree to a crossover. Predators and Aliens could work, but tonally very different from Trek. Phasers would be great against Xenos since they'd disintegrate all the acid, though...

    What if the Greek Revolution failed?

    There were revolts in both Thrace and Macedonia. The one in Thrace was defeated in short order. The ones in Macedonia held out into early 1822, the destruction of Naousa which ended the revolution in Macedonia was in April 13th 1822.
