    What do Ottomans do in Persia, Arabia and Egypt if the UK is defeated/wounded by USA?

    Different regarding Ottoman policy. The Persian campaign of WW1. This is alternate ww1. So maybe the Ottomans live longer. You think the Ottomans were going to die by the Brits and Arabs anyways? Nope. This is the early 20th century. Maybe yes or maybe no.
  2. George 1st in 1470

    Marguerite d'Anjou puts Warwick and George's head on sticks very quickly. Nobody in the Lancastrian party (what Beauforts were left, Marge, etc) actually trusted Warwick not to attempt this. Some historians think that Marge intended to dispose of Warwick ASAP once she got to England. And that...

    So, basically, all that was once good about Disney, from Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pooh, to Marvel Comics and Pixar, would get thrown into the nearest metaphorical trash can as a result of them being reduced to a mere smattering of protoplasm?

    Name for a Liverpool/Manchester Megacity?

    Well, either use the Duchy of Lancaster or the Mersey region,
  5. WI: Woodrow Wilson Dies in 1919

    A hundred year old statement by a US President is hardly current politics.
  6. WI: Richard II Has a Henry VIII Type Succession Scenario

    ...post Lords Appellants. (I doubt he trusted him fully tho.) Richard II was cool with Bolingbroke up until 1399 (created him a duke etc.) But I doubt he'd go around betrothing his daughter to Monmouth either, atleast on a definitive basis. 3rd Earl of Cambridge*. And no. Perhaps a Navarre girl?
  7. WI: Warsaw Pact armies if USSR liberalizes

    Agreed, also it's worthwhile to point out that the US may not have, for example, run tanks through Rome or Paris, but they did fund quite a bit of covert operations against leftist parties in Europe so they wouldn't have to. Potato Potahdo. The CIA and MI6 even sponsered what is often referred...
  8. [Discussion] With Neolithic-Mesolithic PODs, can pure conlanging create plausible alt-languages?

    @Salvador79 You wrote a timeline about copper age Europe with some conlanging, what's your perspective on the matter?
  9. [Discussion] With Neolithic-Mesolithic PODs, can pure conlanging create plausible alt-languages?

    Why this date specifically? Also what would make something less or more plausible(can be arbitrary reasons)?
  10. WI: Warsaw Pact armies if USSR liberalizes

    If you use "gotcha" phrases, at least check that you're right. Yes, Stalin appeased the bureaucracy. He sided with them during the struggles in the 1920's, at first against the left-opposition and then against the right-opposition. After he purged the old ones, young people increasingly rose...
  11. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    A 1944 map of the proposed Lander for Germany made by the OSS (precursor to the CIA) from the Truman Library: https://www.trumanlibrary.gov/maps/m649-map-major-administrative-divisions-greater-germany Clipped version showing only the proposed lander (the original included administrative...

    Threadmarks: Interlude 1

    Interlude Itamun was tired. He had spend the day inspecting the granaries and herds belonging to the Temple of Thoth at Khmun, capital of the Hare-sepat, the fifteenth sepat of Upper Egypt. It was Epip, the second month of the season of Shemu, the harvest season, and Itamun had made sure that...
  13. Rommel goes to trial.

    Agreed Rommel was a "Name". He was celebrated in both the Heer AND in the eyes of the public. It is difficult to imagine a worse PR move by the Reich, and one that would undermine the basic loyalty of the Heer (which was absolutely NOT what the Regime required). An alternative, of course, would...

    Okay, so does the ability for minorities to advocate for their concerns go down as well? Oh, and do white nationalists get a massive boost in prestige and popularity for being able to take down Disney, one of the biggest corporations on the planet?
  15. AHC: The US with a high speed rail system as prolific as in East Asia or western Europe

    This is why this discussions are not worth it. Of course you can build a HSR and/or improve the nationwide infrastructure. And guess what, many countries organize public traffic not the way so it produces money. Because the people say that the money invested is worth it. It's just an ideological...

    WI: Warsaw Pact armies if USSR liberalizes

    Just like Stalin was. Got it.
  17. WI: Richard II Has a Henry VIII Type Succession Scenario

    I will admit to being not too clued up about this. Maybe @material_boy knows more?

    Reread my original post. In it Disney goes down after years of lawsuits/drama, but not before getting cancelling type tactics being used against employees prohibited under federal law. Without cancelling as a form of leverage to keep people in line it loses alot of it's cultural power.

    Ah Henry never changes. It also amuses me far too much that we both have plans involving Talbot girls..
