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

    Isn't the automotive industry shrinking a fucking lot as of late? I'm not sure we will be competitive much longer if that's the case. Do you have any source for this? While I agree that most people would never, ever, trust their USD to the banks (and they do well not to) I disagree that people...
  2. AHC - Get the USA to intervene militarily in the Iranian Revolution

    Two questions. First, what would motivate the USSR and the USA to both simultaneously invade Iran? Second, how will this affect Soviet plans regarding their invasion of Afghanistan?
  3. AHC: Socrates becomes a god

    Socrates was understood as a sage (or annoying fake sage who needed killing) by Greeks who already had The Seven Sages to file Socrates with. Deify them all! Let Holy Wisdom and it's Perfect Octagon of Sages be angels and aspects of Athena Goddess of Wisdom! You'd need Plato to form a cult...
  4. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    Glad to hear you're doing better, Comrade-Patriot Napo!
  5. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    TBH I started talking about this when it was going to be a few bombing runs on the death camps for PR purposes and maybe some strategic infrastructure hubs in the east. We now seem to be talking about a massed air campaign involving strategic bombing and supporting the red army overhead. Which...

    TL 191 HOI4 Mod Update and Discussion Thread

    In 1865 Paraguay invaded Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay without a declaration of war, forcing Brazil to mobilize a army to counter their invasion. As the paraguayans were pushed back from the occupied brazilian territory in Rio Grande do Sul, some army officers (most coming from São Paulo) were...
  7. More Helicopter/light carriers in post ww2 period

    Near Cyprus of course.
  8. Late 90s/Early 2000s WI: Thailand-Burma War

    For some reason, I think this war would probably last between a few weeks to a month before Burma/Myanmar and Thailand both call it quits and end with a draw/stalemate. Perhaps this would result in continued bad blood and tensions between the two countries, which may even still last up to the...

    The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    True. But yeah, this victory will probably give the Mongols overconfidence in the future.
  10. The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    They didn't overextend themselves at all. They wanted compliant tributaries, fearful enemies and reduction of any budding rivals. All this they have achieved while managing to retain their main army intact and not having to leave garrisons courtesy their puppet in Kartveli. Not to mention they...
  11. 1901 and Going Up (A Collaborative TL)

    @More Than A Feeling That's Nice, welcome aboard to this thread however we will look forward to the Initial Stocking Draft of 1901 for Major League Baseball!
  12. Was it surprising Argentina didn't become a decent size power or at least a dominant economy?

    It might have negative knock-on effects. The Brits & Chinese took very different approaches to inheritance. The Brits left everything (more/less) to the eldest son; the Chinese broke up estates equally. It meant the Brit aristos could accumulate enough wealth to develop industries &...
  13. More Helicopter/light carriers in post ww2 period

    Where would Turkey sail this carrier? Or Greece for that matter?
  14. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    The Americans bombed targets near Auschwitz, in upper Silesia. It was a huge complex covering many square miles, that would've been easy to hit. Photo recon flights had been flown over it...
  15. An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    Wise choice to do everything to avoid the puppet image. All the extra blood spilled while in Mesopotamia is blood saved when they cross into the Persia proper.
  16. Explain the AH Quote

    Dave "The Nostalgia Critic" Walker discussing the rumors of the upcoming Wizard of Oz adaptation in 2007 being planned, one closer to the story. He was expressing his skepticism over it though he was relieved when it was revealed the project was being helmed by Walt Disney Company. Released as...
  17. Bonapartism still relevant after Franco-Prussian War?

    Which would require a Confederate victory. A victorious Union would simply tell the French to f*** off just like IOTL, and France did not have the will or the ability to defy America's will on their backyard.

    These are some flags I made for Norwegian Antigua
  19. Could USSR attack Germany during Battle of France?

    ...way the Russians are attacking before June (when Germany has already won in the west), and they’re going to have help. If the USSR couldn’t stuff *Finland*, they sure as hell can’t do it to the Reich. Well, if they were better on the plains in springtime, it sure didn’t help them in 1941...
  20. What would a Spiro Agnew Presidency have been like?

    If Agnew didn’t have his scandals but Watergate still happened, what would Agnew’s Presidency be like? Would Reagan primary Agnew? Would Agnew win or lose against the 1976 Democratic nominee?
