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

    Assuming that Henry VIII had been better prepared and waited to marry Eleanor of Austria, that makes me wonder about the fate of the English Reformation now that Henry's Queen Consort is a Catholic Hapsburg. 🤔
  2. AHC/WI Reversed Cold War: Democratic Russia, Totalitarian America

    What I mean is basically switching the Kornilov affair and October revolution. The Bolsheviks try to overthrow the republic first but fail and are subsequently purged out of being an effective group. When the relationship between the republicans and reactionaries inevitability collapses and a...

    Was it surprising Argentina didn't become a decent size power or at least a dominant economy?

    Honestly no. I'd rather not have my money in ML's system and I hardly consider buying something there to be the same as putting money inside a bank. Like, if you want to take it to those extremes then buying some shit at the grocery is the same, because they are acting as an intermediary. Also...
  4. AHC Crusader States survive longer

    Basileus Alexios Komnens doesn’t listen to Stephen de Blois and continues marching on Antioch, so the crusaders don’t feel like the Romans ‘betrayed’ them and Antioch is returned to the Romans Don’t have 4 Crusader states but 1 big one Don’t attack Damascus
  5. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    That sounds entirely like the ramblings of a hobo in a mental hospital. Good thing I've been around the block for a long enough time!
  6. AHC Crusader States survive longer

    ...systems to encompass as many towns in the region as possible. Use Ain Jalut to either establish a more permanent peace against a greater threat *or* combine forces to take out the Mamluks for good (granted this makes Egypt and Syria dependencies of the Mongols). Reverse the Jizya tax to...

    Trying to Please Everyone: Or Converting multiple Pop Culture Utopias into a Timeline.

    I’m unclear where it is pop culture in a way took off around the 1880’s. I mean Sherlock Holmes died and the fan backlash was so massive they brought him back. That’s basically the fist fan petition in history. So yeah I’d say it begins to change around the 1880’s. Possibly further back if there...
  8. Jasper Tudor had children. The effects?

    Your title is extremely misleading and you completely skip over the PoD into narrative forty years later. Who was "Jeanne of Brittany"? Apparently she is an inserted daughter of Duke Francis II of Brittany. How does Jasper come to marry her (or anyone) while he is a penniless exile, supported...
  9. Charlamagne dies in the winter of 771-2

    There were many candidates is the problem. Who will involve swords. How much advantage? Raids across the border or Saxons taking Paris or just Frisia? Lombards are still not conquered? Long term? Some Saxons backing the alt Great Heathen Army?
  10. The Eagle of the East, Rhomania: An Eastern Roman Timeline (1196 - 1245)

    Trying to Please Everyone: Or Converting multiple Pop Culture Utopias into a Timeline.

    I presume there is a point where OTL begins to transition into TTL, as in there was a point where everyone and everything was 100% like OTL, until a divergence or several divergences began to happen. Also, yeah I'm interested in seeing what else you come up with lost media and Doctor Who.

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

    Considering it was a freak accident, butterflies can probably save her.
  13. A Lusophone World

    My question is how would this immigration on Latin America? With a revived economic status on Chile, Argentina, and Brazil, would many impovished Latin nations look towards these three countries for immigration or would they still move towards the United States?
  14. Earlier use of Tall Boys

    Tactical nuke vs. a fire ant colony (not that such a use is an entirely BAD idea),

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

    I know we still have over a decade before we have to worry but I want it on the record of someone to save in the future: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thuy_Trang
  16. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    I don't think Goeben has a hope in hell of reaching Germany, which is why she fled east rather than make the attempt. That said what happens when she's finally run down by British battlecruisers? She'll be sunk if she fights or forced to run to a neutral port and be interned. Now British I...
  17. Earlier use of Tall Boys

    Was that ON D-Day? I ask because it shows exactly why the senior commanders wouldn't WANT Tallboys dropped on D-Day. That over, shown by the splash, if it was a Tallboy would have flipped landing craft and killed plenty of troops in those craft. Now make that ten of them Heavy bombing agaist...
  18. Surviving Huguenot American Colonies

    Better organization and execution would help. the Brazilian one was the most successful and without Portuguese intervention, might have survived. The Portuguese were serious about driving them out, though, sending a large expedition and the colony would have to be a lot bigger to hold their...
  19. Foreign policy changes after a Bush win in ‘92

    It is my understanding that the east European nations specifically asked to join NATO. To turn them down would make any relations with them more difficult, needless to say.
