  1. What would the Americas be like if the Chinese colonized it?

    I think the results would be similar, but the patterns would be different; if you had Chinese contact with Americas, you would be more likely to see a mix of conquest of metal rich civilizations (as in OTL), settler colonisation in the Americas, without much state backing, and expansion around...
  2. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't Australian divisions committed to Overlord/Dragoon TTL? If Australians wind up liberating the town of Villers-Bretonneux, I'll be a happy man.
  3. Competent Austro-Hungarian military command.

    It's up for the military to present scenarios, that must include likely military outcome s.and an estimate of what are the most likely and also the most dangerous possibilities. It was to the GHQ to tell the Hawks at government that they were about to drive into a cliff. That they failed to see...
  4. DBWI: Caesar does not conquer Parthia

    Most likely either by sending the Legions north to subjugate them, or if resistance was hard enough, establish a series of forts along the border, like the unsuccessful "Great Hunnic Line". Unlike the Huns, the Caledonians didn't have a large enough cavalry force to just bypass the forts to...

    A Second Wife, A Second Husband: A Tudor Timeline

    There should be an update coming out today, but first does anyone know how I can delete the Poll? I honestly can't figure out how do delete it.
  6. Se Deus quiser, há-de brilhar! - Uma História do Império Português (Updated 03/18)

    IIRC, the Portuguese didn't convert significant Mislim population out of Portugal itself. About Juana and Henrique, while I would'nt exactly say that Isabel and Ferdinand were incompetent, they will have just too much pressure to expell Mudejar population, or at least force them to convert...

    What would the Americas be like if the Chinese colonized it?

    Geography isn't the only thing in the equation; culture also matters. It's just that you seem to place too little emphasis on geography, or on the effects it can have when it resonates with some cultural feature. See below for details. If you can manage the division of China without...
  9. Sony never makes PlayStation

    So would that mean no PlayStation would mean no Xbox and no PlayStation-Xbox War.
  10. WI: Warsaw Pact armies if USSR liberalizes

    In case of a socialist renewal in the USSR (that includes a far-reaching democratization of all aspects of society), the pollicy of non-interference in the internal affairs of the other Warsaw Pact nations kind of becomes an innevitability (as OTL clearly showed). If there was a 'Soviet Dubcek'...
  11. Suicide weaponized by Soviet bloc

    Here is a link: Alexander Lebed and Suitcase Nukes and below is how it would look like.
  12. The official discussion thread: 1918 - The German Navy sorties one last time -V.IV-

    Hi Eternity, Still around here as well. Fortunately things here are OK for the moment, even though this country I am in is a sort of hotspot in the Covid-19 pandemic, mostly due to our aging population and the proximity to the UK and the mutation of the Virus originating from there. In my...

    They are territories, that's the reason. If you look at historical OTL maps (or to Puerto Rico in modern OTL maps) you'll see that US territories are darker coloured too. They have less autonomy than regular subdivisions (States or Provinces). Places with higher autonomy also get lighter...

    I have a question, on the OTL Worldas why are Northern Canada and the Northern Territory in Australia a darker colour than the rest of the map? I've looked through the forum for it but I can't find answers.
  16. Suicide weaponized by Soviet bloc

    Soviets did ? I could only find information on US such weapons Can you please elaborate?
  17. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    They know a lot less than you think. The Germans lost that fight, a lot of the men of that german armoured formation ar dead or captured, At the most the germans have, is the reports of the few survivors that got a way, mostly young soldiers that know little about the different marks of britsh...

    Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Do they even know that except for British news reels? Did any Germans who eccounted the Valiants in a meaningful way get away? The Germans will have captured Matilda I & II slow Infantry tanks and fast Cruiser tanks - why believe the British sent 3 experimental tanks to France for a Day trip...
