    WI/PC: A Christian Japan

    True, the Oda clan wouldn’t covert themselves, and would probably control the religion of Japan for a long time, keeping watch on various Christian Daimyo and Buddhist Monks. However, Japan would still have a large Kirishitan population that could possibly flourish, compared to OTL Tokugawa...
  2. Photos from Alternate Worlds II (read FAQ first)

    “Whos laughing now?...”
  3. If Britain/France vs Germany/Italy goes on for many years, what moves do the Soviets make?

    They may take a hit to their civilian economy but that doesn't give them brass or oil. Defending themselves is one thing, and continuing to attack another. Once they are stopped old man percentage will grind them down. It might take a year or three but they will never enter Paris if they don't...
  4. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    Regarding the hangar in the last update, it is a touch disappointing that no space-rated seal can be thought of for the LH2 tank--working on Hubble in a shirtsleeves N2 environment with only an O2 mask would be a lot more convenient than bulky EVA gloves. But I can see why it would be deemed...
  5. Austria-Hungary consulted italy.

    Woha, that is an extremly extreme reading of the text. I hope you would be so kind as to share some contemporary thoughts that also see it that way, preferably non Italian ones. As otherwise I would think that that is not what the original writers had in mind.
  6. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    A good gig if you can get it and it's remunerative. One can find many such examples in history. And current politics but that's another matter.
  7. Can Persia Avoid Islam? If it Does, Can it Remain Zoroastrian?

    Well, like so many who say in this forum, butterfly away the Roman sassanid war of 602-622, since that war was due to foolishness of khosraw Pervez let's assume war lasts for 2-3 years a small localized wars where Persians get some victories and war ends in a treaty which romans paying tribute...
  8. If Britain/France vs Germany/Italy goes on for many years, what moves do the Soviets make?

    The german economy in a "no looted france" scenario would be roses and sunshine in 1941 compared to theit OTL economy in late 43/early 44. Still needed 1,5 years of multi-million-men armies smashing them from both sides to end the war though. Countries from Germany to Japan to Korea have again...
  9. Have the Short's Belfast be more successful

    It is 1965 the USA is building up forces in Vietnam and is desperate for long range heavy lift because of fuselage fatigue problems in the C133. The final straw for the USAAF is the crash of 2 C133s one taking off from Wake Island with 180 Marines on board and one from Denver with a Thor missile...
  10. French Baden

    Probably. The question is why would it want to? Is it in order to secure both banks of the Rhine?

    AHC: Save a notorious flop

    2nded But at least they learned their lesson and turned the franchise around with "The Wraith Of Khan"
  12. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    6 August. If he heads west on 3 August he may well run into the French squadron sent out to intercept him, AIUI Admiral de Lapeyrère's Groupe A was dispatched to the west of the bombarded ports specifically to intercept Goeben. The fuel situation may well be worse on 3 August as well. IOTL...
  13. AHC: Make some or all of these countries as Muslim as their inhabitants think

    For Italy, maybe they annex and keep Libya and/or Italian Somaliland? For South Africa, could a "Nation of Islam" style movement emerge there? Maybe something similar for Brazil? IDK how likely that would be, though. Spain would probably have to annex large parts of Morocco. For the...

    Could France have ever conquered Baden and retained it?

    Return of Horrible Educational Maps

    Sorry Romania and Norway - Europe has snubbed you for part of North America...! :eek:

    Explain the AH Quote

    Words exchanged between two diplomats of the Bear State and the Reconstituted Confederacy. The Bear State had recently seceded from the Confederacy over the issue of slavery, and the Confederacy, tired and worn out from the recently-concluded Second War of the States, was desperately seeking to...

    Was Austria-Hungary really doomed?

    The common perception is that the Habsburg state was doomed to disintegrate since it had so many ethnic groups, and WW1 simply sped up the process. However it seems like this idea was popularized much latter in order to justify Austria-Hungary's destruction. I believe that the level of...

    Foreign policy changes after a Bush win in ‘92

    So over the last few hours I’ve read a few threads about how a Bush victory in ‘92 affects future elections, the economy, pop culture, and the wars in the Middle East. But very little seem to touch on the foreign policy of his second term. For example what will he do in say...Somalia or Rwanda...
  19. Have the Short's Belfast be more successful

    This may be interesting to those here: This is not my work, it came from TinWing over on SecretProjects. Check out their page on the Belfast, it is interesting stuff (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/shorts-belfast.1290/) With that out of the way, here are the varients proposed that...
