    The Reform Party: 20 Years of History

    Wonder how America will deal with this Far-Right president.

    Explain the AH Quote

    King Henry VIII to his close companion Bishop Asherton, after the Bishop accidentally referred to the visiting Pope as, "The King's mortal enemy". The reasons for the Gaffes are unknown but some have suggested that Asherton had gotten his hands on some Tobacco from the New World and had smoked...
  3. Could the United Arab Republic survive a defeat against Israel?

    There are a bunch of threads discussing how plausible and what PODs are needed for the United Arab Republic to survive, but AFAIK none about if the union could've survived a war against Israel, something that seems almost inevitable given the OTL Six-Day War and the Yom Kippur War. Assuming the...
  4. WI: Alexander the Great lives to 75?

    To present a bit of a contrarian view here: I think it's entirely possible that Alexander could become a very unpopular figure due to his megalomania. I don't believe he was supernaturally powerful - he will likely experience a major defeat at some point in his life. The more he demands from his...

    Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Parts guy to mechanic......"We have this horse and cart loaner while you wait for the part"
  6. Explain the AH Quote

    In 1898, due to a series of revolutions, assassinations and abdications, Pope John XXI (born Infante Felipe of Spain) became the heir to the Spanish throne. This, coupled with the unrest in Italy and the loss of papal territory and influence there, led to him moving the Holy See to Madrid. He...
  7. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    My advice is post them full-size, but use Spoiler tags to "hide" them. PS: great images! The Godzilla artwork is sublime.
  8. Remember the Texas! The United States in World War II (an alternate history)

    I mean the advisor that was sent to China basically tried to coup Chiang.

    the canary islands were populated there were even kingdoms that for a time managed to stop spanish colonisation, tenerife and Gran Canaria in particular had a really big population despite living in cuasi stone age levels of technology
  11. Rise of Ultralight helicopters

    Makes me think about interwar tankettes, ie we have this new cool tech we don't really understand and want to have but the cheap version. Ignoring/forgetting that once the crew has been trained it's not going to be cheap anyway and a high casualty rate costs far more than the better designs?

    WI: Woodrow Wilson Dies in 1919

    This may take some explanation. The constitution was ruled "unconstitutional". Now here we have a problem... read on.... When Benjamin Harrison calls you a "fool", BOY is that a signpost. It gets worse. When a poltroon, like Wilson, calls one a small caliber man, then the alarm bells...

    Moonlight in a Jar: An Al-Andalus Timeline

    It's no secret I've been at the bottom of a rut, and not just in TL terms. Even my work work has felt like an ordeal over the past little while. The second lockdown has been utterly draining. I'm starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel, though, and I'm feeling some of that energy coming...
  14. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    The Allies are in an envious position: they have an additional Army Group but they are also in a position to economize forces and concentrate in specific fronts (i.e. France). The Italian Army did not completely disintegrated as in OTL. I doubt that we would see that many italian divisions...

    WI: Buddhism popularized in Rome (at what time?)

    There are historians who claim these two were already influenced in OTL by buddistic ideals. Especially Stoicism. Take the anti materialistic attitude of stoicism f.i.

    Wilson dies of a stroke in 1918 President Marshall allows Italy the Treaty of London Territories

    No. Yugoslavia was led by Serbs. They would easily give up most of the coast, because this is where Croats live. The Rapall Treaty was signed by Nikola Pašić, who was an ardent Serbian ultranationalist. Then again, I don't see Slavs being exterminated by a non-fascist Italy. Molise Croats...

    VPOTUS holds a cabinet position.

    There were a few efforts to do this in post-1900 history. Warren Rudman wanted Colin Powell as Bob Dole’s VP and Secretary of State in 1996, John Kerry offered John McCain VP and Secretary of Defense in 2004, and Bernie Sanders allegedly wanted Elizabeth Warren as VP and Secretary of the...

    In the absence of Islam, which religion becomes the primary competitor to Christianity?

    No. Considering the links to wikipedia, i am pretty sure you just linked the references in wikipedia. Nonetheless Tradition and Modernity in Arabic Language and Literature does not deal with religion by large and makes no specific comment towards it, and is not even a part of the main point of...
