    Jasper Tudor had children. The effects?

    True, I always imagined Tudors would retake Normandy and bits of land near Calais.
  2. Rome vs Unified Eastern Mediterranean

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but many of the Hellenistic states at this time also routinely used both foreign and local mercenaries if I'm not mistaken. The Roman army, and the political leaders and generals pulling the strings, all seemed to have this zealous loyalty and sense of duty to...
  3. Discussion: What if Edmund, Earl of Rutland survives Wakefield?

    But Warwick would still be the top dog. Edward will became the Yorkist claimant at 18 and King at 19, and Edmund is a year younger. Edward married at 22 years old and so Edmund would be 21 and still too young for being more powerful than Warwick.

    GOP position on abortion in a timeline where Moral Majority never took off

    Without the moral majority imo you get both parties being pro-choice. Democrats as vocally pro-choice with GOP a split of pro-choice bc status quo and a pseudolibertarian set who are pro choice bc SMALL GUBMINT type thinking.
  5. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    I'm interested in the characteristics of rockets! The Argentines had 2.75' x 19 rocket pods for their Pucaras and the other option is 5" Zuni rockets in pods of 4. The Argentine pilots used their cannons to strafe British warships, I imagine the attack profile would be similar. I doubt a sharp...
  6. What if the U.S. outsourced manufacturing to post-Soviet Russia instead of China?

    You don't understand what I want say. Almost every country can if it makes correct pro-export policy like Japan, Korea and Taiwan. The most quality Soviet production in 1990 must burn in a nuclear fire at the West European wasteland to get into the Belgian market. Problem is fail of Russian and...
  7. What if the Prohibition Era never happened?

    Canada had it's prohibition too. Liquor laws came into effect after our prohibition such as government liquor stores and just in the last few years my province has allowed wine to be sold in the grocery stores
  8. AHC: reverse the fates of Eastern and Western Europe

    Are they claiming most Scythians lived in towns? That's clearly false. Also we already knew that Scythians, the newcomers, did not replace the previous populations completely. Literally the same Greek sources mention "Scythian farmers" and inland towns. Literally 2 out of the 3 settlements...
  9. Jasper Tudor had children. The effects?

    Keep in mind that the map above doesn't 100% reflect English conquests should the Tudors decide to exploit the religious wars in France. It also reflects religious divides, so the French Catholics would remain strong in the north and east while the Huguenots would be strong in the south and west...

    Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    I was unsure of my memory, I knew it was appalling. That is about the East Front casualty rate killed and wounded for the Germans in 1943, and slightly less than 1/2 the Italian Front rate.
  11. The Empire Parnell Built

    only way I can explain THESE - Europe survived some GREAT CATASTROPHE, maybe nuclear war? Right?

    Jasper Tudor had children. The effects?

    I like the idea of Tudors reconquering France but that is a bit much. Maybe just the Northern Territories.

    AHC: competent Red Army by 1939

    While giving the USSR a "smooth" interwar period isn't possible, with a PoD in the early 20s (as suggested by the OP) one can conceivably imagine a timeline where the worst excesses of OTL are avoided allowing for the process to begin in the mid thirties. Another factor is that much of the...
  16. WI Napoleonic France one century earlier

    I don't particularly agree with this. In the Franco-Dutch war, the 9 yr war, and WoSS, opposing alliances stopped French hegemony. France was never close to imposing its will on the german lands, the italian lands, or Austria circa 1700. Certainly not to the extent that Napoleon did. at one...
  17. The Empire Parnell Built

    So, TTL Italy collapsed and Naples, Rome and others are indepedent nations?
  18. Jasper Tudor had children. The effects?

    Now that I think about it, I just had a crazy idea. Exploiting the religious strife in France as an opportunity to restart another war with the French to expand English and Breton landholdings, Henry VIII's successor and the Tudor Duke of Brittany launch a joint invasion of France. This works...
  19. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    I thought so on both charges. I just wanted to make sure, given the twists and turns this timeline has taken. So, whether Orion wins or loses in the Saturday Morning wars, it's just a drop in the petri dish for Buffett? I thought that Potato Head Kids would get its own timeslot sooner or...
  20. British Empire in WW2 using colonial forces across pacific and european theatres in much larger numbers

    Indeed. Like the USA and Russia the trick is to take over territories on your curtilage and then claim that they are not empires but actual parts of the nation. Empires like Spain,France and Britain were overseas so visibly colonial.
