  1. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    You know I really like the bit about Other than that I like that they are toning down the soap opera towards focusing more on the moon and the goings on there.
  2. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    Only 98.9%? How am I supposed to score higher than this as Lincoln?
  3. Silver Road and Golden Stripes, Yet Another Football TL

    My picks: France and Germany, with Germany winning another Nations League title...
  4. in U.S. circa 1990, “nanny state” takes the intellectual space of “political correctness”

    I love it! :openedeyewink: I hope you don’t mind if I riff on your phrase and say “other differently typed colored people.” I mean, this can be a helpful phrase, too, right?

    A French New Zealand

    Nouvelle-Zealand is potentially better off for the Māori. The French have neither the interest nor the resources to make a settler colony. Nouvelle-Caledonia’s current population is 1/4 European, NZ is like 7/10 European. I’m guessing but I suspect a French NZ would follow a similar pattern...

    A Mini by any other name?

    General Motors gains the North American rights to produce Minis?
  7. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    This will be easier the Allies to fix the French transport system than the Germans. 1. Not under constant attack. 2. Friendly populace that you can turn your back on. 3. More materials to repair the infrastructure than the Germans, way more. 4. Trained personnel, both the Allied troops and the...

    AHC: Rename a country, that unified from a long-described region

    You’d presumably have to form the Greek national consciousness at a different date, or under a different rule, than it did. There are lots of good reasons the Greek nationalists preferred neoclassicism to neomedievalism; the rest of Europe (save Germany, but only in its own specific way, for its...
  9. An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    If Iskandar Jr. goes out like that I'd expect each Persian attempt at negotiations to end with Ody going "the slaughter only stops when Iskandar is restored to the throne." Kind of like Enigo Montoya saying "I want my father back you son of a b××××" when the six fingered man is begging for mercy.

    Se Deus quiser, há-de brilhar! - Uma História do Império Português (Updated 03/18)

    As I am aiming for a weaker Protestant reformation for this TL, the entire British Isles (Scotland and Ireland as you've mentioned) will remain Catholic but will unite peacefully under English rule. The Reformation would be more of a regional European phenomenon, with Lutheranism being a...
  11. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    Considering how we ravaged Nauru for it's phosphate, I cannot see this going well for the Pacific islands. As much as I despise the Chinese government for it's crack down on Hong Kong, I have to shake my head at Margaret Thatcher. What was so hard for her to understand about the sentiment...
  12. Is it possible to avoid the catastrophic economic and demographic fallout from the USSR collapse

    I don't think that having the rich guys get first bids is good or bids for that matter as completely excludes the working class. It should start from the workers and managers upwards towards the rich guys for any and all sales of shares, whatever is left is bought by the rich guys at inflated...
  13. Stupid Luck and Happenstance, Thread III

    You forgot St. Gia, she would bring a container of Chlorine Trifloride and Kat would give Kiki a Willy Pete grenade to set it off.

    Nogai about to become TTL's William T. Sherman and embark on a March to the Sea that'll make Georgia howl.

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Under the circumstances of how successful Disney was been ITTL I too support making it worse but not quite as bad ad @GrahamB's suggestion.
  18. A Mini by any other name?

    How about Datsun (Nissan) buying a licence for it in the 60's? They started out making Austin 7's. BL could also possibly sell licences to Korean and Indian firms in the 70's. Brazil and Mexico could use a competitor for the Beetle they're building as well.
