    Sidera Longius Iter: A Long Road to the Stars
    Threadmarks: [Graphic] Flag(s) of Luna, 2150

    ...did finally get chosen and adopted as the official flag of the entire celestial body and millions of people. Now, there is a flag that all Selenites* can rally around. Dubbed as the "White Crescent" flag. Adopted in 2146, meant to be universally recognizable and fully represented all Lunar...

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    Mary was always adamant that she was Henry VIII's heiress. I don't know how kindly she'd take to being supplanted by her nephew and baby cousin, particularly given Henry's father was definitely a bastard...
  3. WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    I don't foresee things going brilliantly for Mary in this situation either, I doubt she'd kick Henry off especially if he marries Jane. Elizabeth would likely do alright though I suspect, potentially the Swedish match for her could go through in this scenario? I recall he didn't seem to mind her...

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    I thought that too. They are at the perfect age to be raised together. If they becomes besties Edward will easily declared Henry his heir. Oh, I see. So best thing Thomas to do is try and hold his Grandson from going to far with the Protestantism.

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    Possibly, although I suspect Edward and Henry would be raised together, so they'd probably have very similar religious outlooks. And Mary Howard was definitely a reformer, so she'd be urging her son to stick with the new faith.
  6. Henry the Young King lives, but what happens to Aquitaine?

    Just to weaken the Plantagenet empire I do not believe he was strong enough to do this in the late 1180s. Having a war between brothers undermine the dynasties credibility and Richard and Henry's respective rule.

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    I doubt she’s try here. She might just swear loyalty and pray they let her marry some noble, maybe Edward Courtenay?

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    @RedKing suggested the same thing. That could definitely work. Poor Mary, though. With the Howards and the Grey's behind them, I don't see that she's removing Henry and Jane from the throne any time soon.

    What if Henry VIII had been better prepared to be King?

    Probably better if Catherine just leaves that blast radius ASAP. God knows what Henry would do to her here.

    What a incredible shitshow that would have been...
  11. AHC: reverse the fates of Eastern and Western Europe

    @Gloss, although again want to stress these topics are not related to what I commented on originally (which is *purely* about the level of evidence for large scale agricultural communities in the steppe and forest steppe during the Scythian era *not* their group identification, nor whether...
  12. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    Italy has been declared mine free only in 1998 and we are still find WWI and II bombshell, even in the middle of a city

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    Hmm, true. Though he was married to Mary and Elizabeth’s Mother’s (which could’ve played a part). He wasn’t with Fitzroy, but the again if he wants to he can just declare them legitimate. So as you said it probably is Edward, Henry, Mary, Elizabeth. What’s interesting is what happens when Henry...

    WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    See, if Henry put the daughters he believed to be illegitimate in the succession in 1544, I can't see him not including his indisputably legitimate grandson. Fitzroy himself was a bastard, but the same cannot be said for his posthumous child with Mary Howard. I can see the 1544 succession...
  15. WI: Henry Fitzroy had had a son?

    Not quite an elegant solution but Jane Grey was born in 1537 wasn't she? About a year after Fitzroy jr, it would be interesting if there was an attempt to join those two claims together.
  16. Henry the Young King lives, but what happens to Aquitaine?

    How and why would Philip Augustus help Richard take the other plantangent lands? He’d take them for himself
  17. The Forge of Weyland

    At the moment, no real changes. After all, its only been two weeks since the Germans attacked. Bringing more troops to France is always likely unless Mussolini does something silly, but they do need to keep some around to persuade him not to try anything
  18. How far could industrialisation go without large population surpluses?

    Historically, one of the drivers of the Industrial Revolution was the Agricultural Revolution, which enabled fewer farmers to produce more food and so freed up large numbers of people to move to towns and cities and work in the factories there. In this TL, these large numbers of people don't...
  19. Henry the Young King lives, but what happens to Aquitaine?

    One could think about John is that he does not lack courage when his father told him to fight his brother Richard he wasn't being serious because John had no troops. John that quickly made the lions with his brother Jeffrey and hired mercenaries to fight his brother he was defeat but is dies...
