  1. African countries grow sugarcane to sell to Europe

    The biggest sugar producing area in Africa is the Nile delta and Natal, while sugar cane is produce elsewhere it’s on smaller scale and I know that Denmark experimented with setting sugar production up in Ghana and that mostly failed. So I suspect that sugar simply doesn’t grow well in the areas...

    Thank you, Cal. The thread was fun while it lasted, tho, but the Bear has arrived, so I shall go.

    Descendants of the Dragons and Fairies - Volume I: One Inch Missed, One Mile Fixed

    Good question. Unfortunately, I haven’t had a decisive answer for now, and I can’t give any spoilers!
  4. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History

    Or better have him become New York Senator and take over in the future as Reform Senate Leader, becoming a Ross Perot-like symbol for the party, sure, while keeping his liberal-populist views.

    African countries grow sugarcane to sell to Europe

    East Africa was a great supplier of tropical woods, incense and spices to ancient Egypt, the commerce went mainly by sea. West Africa didn't seem to have much naval tradition though. There's only some tales of Carthaginian traders who may have went there to barter with the locals but that ended...
  6. Vichy France, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, and Thailand gets the same reputation as Nazi Germany, Italy, and Japan

    maybe some "carrot and stick" approach could have the Vichy regime participate in the u-boat warfare? Admiral Darlan was not a sympathetic figure even attempting to join the Allied side, French submarines in the Med and Second Happy Time off US coast, would cast him as a real villain. Hungary...

    In hindsight, was American independence from the British inevitable?

    In the sense that all empires die? Yes. But, in the way we know it? No. First and foremost, if britain had shifted the native reservation to the west of Ohio and told the colonial governments to increase tax revenues locally (and enforce mercantalism) instead of top down, that's most of the...

    Miscellaneous <1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    Has anyone read the Edmund Tudor fic on FanFiction? It's getting pretty good though it is technically a fanfic for the show Tudors, it's about an OC brother of Henry VIII, not a Mary Sue. Anyone reading it?
  10. Other Portugals: What countries could have remained apart from Spain?

    IMHO, the best case would be in 1648. With two insurrections, one in Portugal and another in Catalonia, there weren't enough soldiers to defeat both. IOTL the option was Catalonia an leave Portugal. You can choose defeat Portugal alñnd leave Catalonia
  11. Vichy France, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, and Thailand gets the same reputation as Nazi Germany, Italy, and Japan

    It depends. Mostly, if Vichy French colonial administrators and officers (and their colonies) still rallied the Allies after Operation Torch-equivalent in North Africa. If not, the French Empire would likely be dismantled (though Britain might be reluctant as giving French colonies independence...

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

    The Madnessverse is meant to be a horrible, dystopian timeline. It puts the worst qualities of mankind on adrenaline, and to recognize real events as sharing that Madness is disgusting and horrifying. We should never be able to compare our universe to the Madnessverse, but we can, and that is a...

    Not sure if you are a massive troll or an unusual strain of racist. Not that it matters. You have chosen to Troll Straight Out of the Gate. To Coventry with you.

    The truth about the white man.

    I don't care actually about this, but I once criticized how eurocentric and racist this forum(i actually meant euroentric when I said racist before) was but it turns out that this forum is actually better than other alternatehistory forums I posted in which have more racist members. I think...
  16. The truth about the white man.

    I like how he transplants the concept of castes from socio-religious hierarchy within a society to racial hierarchy between different nations.
  17. Germans Take Ypres, 1916

    It's pretty saddening really, and that's why I can understand people looking for ways to break the stalemate and end the war in another way. It's pretty anticlimactic really. WW1 was a war that wasn't really decided on the battlefield (aside from the first few months) but instead purely on...
