  1. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    That was ingenious on Persia's part. Glad to see Russians and Ottomans duking it out for basically no reason. :D Does this mean that Vostok Russia will include both Siberia and Russian America?

  3. WI: Warsaw Pact armies if USSR liberalizes

    According to the article you showed it was because of the comparative advantage it got dumping it on Eastern Europe. It couldn't buy freely from Europe and the US because of trade restrictions. The US or Europe was unwilling to sell it anything that could remotely be used for military purposes...
  4. A New Britain - A British Political TL (1995-)

    That's a perfectly fair point but I think if Gordon Brown had lost to Blair in 94 then Brown wouldn't have felt entitled to become PM. To be honest i did think about making Alan Milburn the chancellor in 2010 but then what cause would Blair have to get rid of brown. I mean he ran a strong...
  5. The son of Anne of Brittany and Charles 8th lives?

    ...just me. Or Mary I? Probably a very big stretch unless she's gotten a brother but I'd give good money to see an alt HYW happening. Hmm true. *insert mistress here* or Catherine de Medici? Sounds good to me! So we have, Charles IX of France (b. 1492) m. Eleanor of Austria (b. 1498) A)...
  6. AH Cultural Descriptions

    A book written by Albert McEwan, an Anglo-Indian author, about how Āyari¹ cuisine has evolved over time. The book focuses on the origins of this cuisine, and how the blend between the cultures of Irish peasants and the Indians who colonized Āyar resulted in the unique meals seen there. It also...

    The son of Anne of Brittany and Charles 8th lives?

    Well by that, it seems like England's a safer match. Especially since it allows them to focus elsewhere.
  8. The son of Anne of Brittany and Charles 8th lives?

    That's the question I'm also asking. England has been a historic rival for centuries and claimed the French throne multiple times, so a marriage with Elizabeth could potentially end that situation (at least for a while). Marrying Eleanor would bring France into the sphere of influence of Austria...

    British "Civilization"

    That concession makes it much easier. Diefenbaker doesn't blink and agrees to Macmillan's offer of a FTA with Canada (supposedly the one thing Canada could have done to get the UK to not abandon the Commonwealth in favour of the European Common Market). Expanding from there you get Australia...
  10. Explain the AH Quote

    Spoken by Abraham Lincoln upon his ascenscion to President of Liberia. Ironically, his rule of the country would prove to be an utter disaster, embroiling the nascent African country in wars with all of its neighbours. You stand in the presence of perfection, your awe is annoying.

    The son of Anne of Brittany and Charles 8th lives?

    Oh I see. Eleanor would be strategic for getting the Habsburgs off their back but so would Elizabeth for the English. It really depends on what Charles IX is looking for.
  12. Explain the AH Quote

    An exchange from an episode of Family Guy spoofing Ancient Aliens, or rather lampooning both sides of the arguments; the believers for the lack of presentation of evidence and beleif and the disbelievers for the desperate belief and special and trying to coincide the accomplishments with...

  14. The son of Anne of Brittany and Charles 8th lives?

    Oh, we weren't talking about them as you already mentioned who they would marry. I was talking about who Charles 9th would marry: surviving Elizabeth or Eleanor?

  16. British "Civilization"

    As a Canadian, I don't think most Canadians, even English Canadians, any longer view themselves as part of a larger British civilization, distinct from the West in general. I mean, sure, some people wanna hang onto the monarchy because it makes us distinct from Americans, and most provincial...

    Ah. I've actually already mapped that, I just hadn't posted it. Very nice work nonetheless. EDIT: This page is very useful for this kind of thing.
  18. WI: Suleiman takes Vienna

    Yes, with the Protestant revolution going on at the exact same time, I think it would be smart for the Ottomans to encourage Protestantism or Protestant exiles from the north into Vienna and Hungary
