  1. A more realistic (IMO) AHC: US Metro/Regional Transit as good as in Europe.

    As a side note, one of the places where HSR would work is in the southwest because there’s enough cities that are far away but not so far that flying makes sense, and the areas in between are sparsely populated enough that you can run a train pretty much straight between them at full HSR speed...
  2. AHC/WI Reversed Cold War: Democratic Russia, Totalitarian America

    I'm pretty sure at least something would've been different after flipping the democracy index.
  3. What would the Treaty of Berlin look like if Germany chose to back Russia's claims?

    San Stefano created Bulgaria that was too big for everybody’s comfort. Your seems to be smaller but how can I say what would be Austrian feelings?

    Azania's Place in the Sun: An Alternate Madagascar

    Chapter Four: Enemies from the East While the highlands had been consumed in warfare, a new development had been taking place along the Eastern coast. It started with numerous sightings of strange ships being spotted off the coast from Haftalzanj. Finally, the first of these foreign ships...
  6. Moonlight in a Jar: An Al-Andalus Timeline

    It looks like that while the Simala Emirate has been ejected from the former Niani and Bure goldfield region, they'll have much better time gaining strength from the upper Guinea region. It's probably going to be more productive as well. In the long term, I think they'll exploit the productivity...
  7. Impact on Japan if the Emperor and Imperial monarchy was dismantled following WW2

    How did the Emperor, who was often simply overseeing the plans of the prime minister and the military factions, become so highly regarded by the Showa period? Why was his legitimacy so paramount? If a republic would be too weak and easily rejected by the people, what could serve in lieu of that...

    Probably a weeks bar bill in Parliament.
  9. What if the U.S. outsourced manufacturing to post-Soviet Russia instead of China?

    ...off duty is pretty much a new low, though. Even in Mexico that isn’t very common. Honestly, Mexico is a normal corrupt country, but Russia is a *kleptocracy.* There’s a difference, and the way I would define it is that in the latter, the structure, organs, and power of the state are...

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

    Even if, and I'll stress the if, the Japanese were forced to surrender after the sort of mass use of early generation Bombs, that would not change, even a tiny bit, the reality that the U.S. would have faced an insurgency that would have lasted for decades.
  12. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Maybe the 7800 should have a new audio chip. To keep the theme naming of women's names but divorce it from a rather squicky habit of Nolan Bushnell's (he'd name them after women he liked around the office) I'd like to make it a Disney reference. The three options I went for are MINNIE, DAISY, or...

  14. A more realistic (IMO) AHC: US Metro/Regional Transit as good as in Europe.

    Is there a perception that commuter rail and metro rail/trams are for poor people? Certainly I'd say buses are for poor people, particularly longer distance and suburban services, but in Melbourne there is no stigma attached to regional-commuter (medium speed), Metro and Tram services. I haven't...
  15. In hindsight, was American independence from the British inevitable?

    Let's suppose for a moment that the colonies get their representatives in Parliament, what then? They'll not get anywhere near enough to challenge the existing parties and Parliament and the Government of the day will largely place the colonies concerns far below that of their own estates and...
  16. The Footprint of Mussolini - TL

    Doesn't OTL Kaisserreich have a Syndicalist Mussollini? I don't think that that would fly to well with Italy. Speaking of Syndicalism, maybe it would be portrayed as being more authoritarian than IOTL. Then it wouldn't even be The New Order anymore. Instead, I think that, due to TTL Nazism...

    The three hulls together cost over £NZ10,000. That is not a small sum.

    Threadmarks: Political Map of Britain in 1050

    Political Map of Britain in 1050 For a first attempt at map making, I don't think it turned out all that badly. A few notes for clarity however. Cornwall unlabeled, is a vassal of the Kingdom of Cymry, although the small kingdom is rather autonomous in terms of the day to day running of the...
  19. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    I'd be okay with Metromedia buying New Line and Vestron. That way, they'd get a television studio, a home video brand, and two film companies! That's a great deal of integration there!
