  1. 1217: a Marshal Monarchy

    I make no apologies for my view that William Marshal was the greatest leader England has ever had. This country owes so much to him, yet he and his sons were most grievously mistreated, and it seems quite likely that Henry III, whose crown William fought to protect, had a hand in the murder of...

    Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    ...I just realized. It wasn't an accident that they chose the goddamn annunciation as the day they declared Independence, was it? They totally timed that on purpose.
  3. It's The North. They're different up there: A British TV TL

    Funny this Pan Northern TV Company doesn't cover the Northern most parts of England at all. I guess if we're north of the Humber Mersey corridor and south of Scotland we don't exist.
  4. Map Thread XX

    Aw Jeez, its a thing? I just couldnt see them states ever siding with the south like that
  5. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    In a twisted way, there is something more respectable therein when compared to the grandiose self-delusions that fuel the bloodlust and libido dominandi that fuel the AFC, Southern Nations, European Empire (especially the Super-Catholics), Illumanists, and all the others still to come. At leas...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    The Illuminist may lead computer tech instead of North America since they are a lot more open to tabulating technologies as perfecting human conditions.
  7. Chronicle of the Kings of Britain: A New Tenth Century

    Honestly my first attempt at map making was far far FAR worse so it never got published. Your ATL is fun so please keep going.
  8. Dunkirk disaster and Spain declares war on Britain.

    It think it is fair to argue that the reverse was true. The Allies would have been quite happy to ignore Japan, except the US wanted embargoes etc, and the Allies needed to keep the US onside and followed suit.
  9. WI/AHC: A Soviet Game Console

    Have the USSR not collapse. Not sure how far back a POD this would require, if just having someone more brutal, competent, and anti-liberalization take power instead of Gorbachev would be enough or if you have to avoid/reduce the stagnation of Brezhnev, but it would have been possible for the...
  10. WI/AHC: A Soviet Game Console

    Perhaps in a surviving Soviet Union timeline, Russian computer engineer and video game designer Alexey Pajitnov creates a simple handheld console for the games he created, such as Tetris and more. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexey_Pajitnov
  11. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Given how Mickey's 60th birthday is a few years away, calling the chip MINNIE would help celebrate the occasion a fair bit early. Although, there are a few names that could work just as well on top of your two other suggestions. ANNETTE: This is a reference to Annette Funicello from The Mickey...
  12. “Arab spring” like uprisings in early 1980s

    Ah, okay. I misread your headline. I thought you meant "Make the Arab Spring like the uprisings in the early 80s." But you meant "Have uprisings in the early 80s that are like the Arab Spring". Friendly hint: Hyphens can be very useful: "Arab Spring-like uprisings in the early 80s."
  13. AHC: Longest possible airship age

    The problem with airship was that they hit too late, if it had hit a decade earlier it could have developed large scale commercial use while airplanes couldn’t compete. In OTL it hit and then because of WWI it didn’t get large scale use before after the war and at that point planes were almost...
  14. Separated at Birth: America and Drakia

    ...see a great addition from your timeline (mostly due to the fact that all the Draka fanfiction over there involve bad writing, off-kilter plots, unfinished fanfiction, and things that would make Stirling blush). https://archiveofourown.org/tags/Draka%20Series%20-%20S*d*%20M*d*%20Stirling/works
  15. WI/AHC: A Soviet Game Console

    Probably wouldn’t take off outside the USSR, and once it falls, people will prefer the American and Japanese ones. As another thread pointed out, America didn’t set up manufacturing in the former USSR because the whole place was widely known for shitty workmanship. Whatever they churned out...
  16. Impact on Japan if the Emperor and Imperial monarchy was dismantled following WW2

    As far as getting rid of the Emperor as a position, it sounds pretty impossible at the time- and probably now. Are there Japanese republican movements like there are in places like Canada or Australia or the U.K.? If there are they surely must be more fringe. So I guess at this point we'd be...
  17. What if the U.S. outsourced manufacturing to post-Soviet Russia instead of China?

    We had been doing business with China since the late 70s. We knew how. Clinton didn't start that relationship, he just restored it after Tiananmen Square. There's no logical reason to interrupt all that to rebuild the infrastructure in Russia from scratch especially as the place was first an...

  20. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    I wonder if the Madnessverse will see computer tech. Really, Wozniak being Polish-American and Steve Jobs being half-Syrian probably stops certain things, but Bill Gates' family was originally from Essex, England, and I'm sure that enough computer pioneers with "Pinnacle enough" heritage can be...
