  1. AHC: competent Red Army by 1939

    Stalin choking on a pretzel at some point before 1936, the beginning of the Great Purge, would help massively.

    Impact on Japan if the Emperor and Imperial monarchy was dismantled following WW2

    From what I read even the Japanese communists were split between status quo (i.e keeping the monarchy) and republicans down the middle.
  3. Impact on Japan if the Emperor and Imperial monarchy was dismantled following WW2

    In Korea we underwent some 40 years of political dictatorships, with liberalization during short interregnums between each regime, which was quickly followed by political destabilization and then the reintroduction of dictatorship. In Taiwan they went more-or-less same length of tyranny. It's...

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

    Toyota successfully manufactures and exports SUVs from Argentina. A few kilometers away, other automakers (cof, cof, Fiat) only know to show up crying in media because the dollar is too low (no matter what's the actual price of the US dollar). But we should also remember Toyota doesn't...

  6. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    IIRC Black Buck 1 bombing run was undertaken at 10,000'/3,300m, which I suspect was the best altitude for a range of reasons such as accuracy, trajectory/penetrative capacity, safety from AAA etc. I don't know if simply bombing from 20,000'/6,000m is a feasible option, it may reduce accuracy...
  7. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    I remember that! Booooooooooo we need to tear down dimensional barriers! Beutelism and LttW Societism for everyone! We must break out of the Left-Right false narrative! 300 years is long enough!

    On second though, some boxes are better left unopened.
  9. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    I think I once saw someone use Hearts of Iron to model out a loose map of WMIT, but I can't find it.

    Wi Auguste Comte dies in 1827, no positivism

    I think it was closer to the CSA to be honest, Darcy Ribeiro even said that "Brazil is like if the south won the civil war so much that it had annexed the north"
  12. Fate of an Entente Netherlands in a CP Victory Scenario?

    The Germans might want to annex the province of Limburg, which was a coal mining region at the time. There was some historical precedent for it. The Germans will also want the Dutch East Indies in such a scenario, but that depends on how big of a victory it is. The British would rather occupy it...

    Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    I think it would be more important to ask the question if dehousing would have been adopted by the Allies if the Germans had not provoked it with their bombing of civilians. In short, was the decision made because of just how evil the Germans were, or because the British were determined to win...
  15. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    British Light Tanks, a thought. So OTL the British moved away from Light Tanks following the Fall of France for a couple of reasons IIRC. The first was a belief that Armoured Cars were better suited for the role but the other was I believe the poor performance of the Light tanks during the...

    AHC: Defend the Falklands

    The Roland, IIRC, couldn't fire to targets above 6,000 meters. So the next Black Bucks would have a Vulcan flying above that height. Had the Argentine Navy realized earlier that they would be putting the fleet at port, they may have left a Type 42 destroyer harbored at Stanley, and that destroy...
  17. What if the U.S. outsourced manufacturing to post-Soviet Russia instead of China?

    I didn't say that Russia didn't have demographic problems, merely that its demographics had little to do with the fact it was run by the elderly under Brezhnev. There were literally millions of men to pick from. The age group of say 40 to 60 was in the millions in the USSR.
  18. Wi Auguste Comte dies in 1827, no positivism

    The Old Republic was pretty USA-esque IOTL, with the super autonomous states, midterm elections and a powerless federal government.

  20. Impact on Japan if the Emperor and Imperial monarchy was dismantled following WW2

    What you view of popularity is in large measure the reflection of his presumed role in the anti Hitler conspiracy. He was certainly aware of anti-Jewish activities in Tunisia and the treatment of POWs was not exemplary.
