    Moonlight in a Jar: An Al-Andalus Timeline

    Why doesn't Andalusia not move the border to the Pyrenees? Pryrenees is a natural defence which they don't control.

    Threadmarks: 30. The Elections of 2011 (1)

    30. The Elections of 2011 (1) Against all odds, Albert Rivera remained at the helm of the PCP, in spite of the voices that asked for his resignation. Determined to go down fighthing, he surprised many by his determination and, above all, his blind faith in his chances to win, even if by the...

    'Liberty and Happiness': The British Republic

    They’d probably just avoid OTL‘s design to avoid confusion
  4. Have the IA 58 PUCARÁ be more successful in the export market

    Brazil already has the Tucano, they don't need to buy from a traditional geopolitical rival.
  5. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    I would have abc sold to either Grand Diamond, Touchstone, Rko Wanrer or Turner. Does anybody like the idea of Murdoch buying out viacom or time life ince
  6. AHC: The US with a high speed rail system as prolific as in East Asia or western Europe

    I'm not going to reiterate arguments, since my previous experience convinced me that a lot of those in this thread have absolutely no willingness to be convinced, and I'm tired of people taking singular aspects of my arguments to dismiss the whole. Another opportunity for better transit that...

    Threadmarks: 1581-1583 Norland, Ottomans and Japan

    The History of Norland: A Very Short Introduction by T Germaine (2006) When Sir Walter returned from the war in Europe in summer 1581, he found that his father had died the previous autumn making him Duke of Goughton, and leaving the Viceroyalty of the whole of Colombia vacant. The news...
  8. Could a Communist Romania lead to a Trotskyist Russia?

    I was trying to give him a few cards to play instead of just going "Trotsky is leader now! Discuss!".

    Map Thread XX

    Isnt it a little odd how no nation is settling anywhere else besides what they border almost 900 years later. With most of Asia and Europe colonized you would think the Cape of Africa would be settled or something. Just the patterns of what is going on with the nations feels odd. Like why are...
  10. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    Ok, in that case we have two possible times to head west: 4th August after bombarding Philipeville and 3rd August directly from Messina. Fuel wise, some of the same problems are going to be present in either case. Looking at 4th August first: Goeben took on 1800 tons of coal in Messina between...
  11. Was Austria-Hungary really doomed?

    I said that it would eventually disintegrate but that is a bit misleading. Without the Entente deliberately trying to dismantle it, I don't think it would completely disintegrate. For example, I'm reasonably confident that the Czechs and the Slovenes would willingly stay with Vienna under most...
  12. What's your favorite alternate ethnolinguistic situation for England?

    Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    To be fair we never held Allied commanders to that standard, The clean heer may be a persistant myth but so is the myth that any army was truely clean Generally the Axis were far worse than the allies - not counting the Sovietsw ho had their own issues. BUT the best Germans were better than...

    Never mind, I don't mean to derail this into another CSA thread.

    For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    What I'd like to know about modern 'TV' is why 10 episodes rather than say 12 which I'd have thought would give a little more room withour over staying the welcome. Picard for example really should have been 1 or 2 shows longer to pace out the ending better.
  16. WI: No iPhone

    Apple won out not by innovating, but merely combining existing technologies and design concepts better than anyone else and marketing it well - The combination of a capacitive screen with a clean, finger-based UI was inevitable at this point - Apple iPhone’s success wasn’t inevitable. Remember...

    WI: Root vs Wilson in 1912

    True. Root declined to run in 1916 as well, even though the nomination was wide open. (Of course this was partly because he had played such a prominent role in the TR-Taft split, which hadn't yet happened in 1908, but the same reasons that prevented him from running then still applied in 1916)...
