  1. AHC: Have Hawaii dump the Union Jack

    No, I think it's quite reasonable for Hawai'i to remain independent and never be formally colonized. It will almost inevitably be heavily politically dominated by the United States, granted, but this merely puts it in a similar position to the other states of the Americas, especially the Central...
  2. AHC: Make Central Power Win WWI With US Join the War

    well there is always: A day in July: an early 20th century timeline. (it's really good). The way to victory for the CP seems to be in a better spring offensive, (explored in the timeline) where the focus falls on the British, and this leads to a collapse in Flanders and moves the trenches to the...

    The Revenge of the Crown : An Alternate 1812 and Beyond.

    yes. Though a large black and Anglo plurality as well. No. No. Mexico and Borealia. Mexico by its sheer size and population, Borealia with the amount of natural resources they have.

    If Harald Hardrada conquered England, what would his capital be?

    This ^ Prior to William the "capital" was with the Kings Court, wherever he held it.

    No Problem! Cool Projects deserve cool guys and Zell is fun! Cant wait for more!
  6. What would the Americas be like if the Chinese colonized it?

    Thank you. It always kind of disappoints me that a lot of folks on this site will just go, “Ugh! This is impossible and you shouldn’t ask it!” For certain topics.

    Yes. Compare Richard II as PoW.

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

    Of course, France not getting Alsace-Lorraine at Versailles would have been enough of a deal-breaker for France to simply ignore the treaty and annex it anyway, much in the vein of Turkey's behavior after Sèvres. With the additional possibility of Wilson getting humiliated in turn by being cast...

    WI: Warsaw Pact armies if USSR liberalizes

    Colonies is a poor word to be sure. Puppet states is much more apropriate. That says more of the devastation the USSR went through due to both its leaders incompetence and WW2, then any indicator of their control of the Eastern european states, which is more clearly shown by their demand that...
  10. Soviet low level air defense missiles: too little too late ?

    Not really my area/era but does the action in in N.Vietnam tell us anything worthwhile here?
  11. What if afganistan didn't exist and instead was partitioned

    Who knows? But there's definitely mineral wealth in the region that could be extracted under the auspices of responsible governments to make everyone (residents of the area included) rich, in the absence of wars - e.g. the Aynak copper.

    Thank you P-M, for this amazing world you've created. I need your latest chapter every morning like I need black coffee. It gets the day started and makes everything better :)

    Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    No offense, but I feel like there most certainly would be a southern third party in all of these elections, not just 1948. For 52, I could kinda see Taft actually taking the south since he was anti-Civil Rights (more out of principle), but he was a rep so I doubt the south would actually all go...

    The Children of Camelot

    I see, so Arthur can hold the title as the Grandson and heir of Henry VII?
  15. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    This is some impressive stuff. Quite the dream team, and just (re)elevated a new challenger to Disney. Also, back when Graham, Geekhis and I were tossing around ideas, I had some ideas of my own for this. Primarily, my idea was the film's main human characters would be a japanese family, with...
  16. The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    Minor nitpick, but whom did he marry ITTL? IOTL he didn't marry for long, but that's because he had no land to inherit (only his eldest brother Vladislaus was compassionate enough to grant him a few Silesian duchies), so he was not an attractive candidate for marriage (however, he had a...
  17. Sun Yat Sen Lives: effects on China and WWII

    I don't see it. Sun Yat Sen was a revolutionary nationalist, but that doesn't necessarily make him a protofascist. See Fascism and Sun Yat-Sen by A. James Gregor (U.C. Berkeley): I don't think that revolutionary nationalism would necessarily transition to fascism in a WW2 context.

    The Children of Camelot

    The Prince of Wales title could originally be granted by the holder onto anyone. With the merger into England by Henry VIII it became an English (i.e. of England) title that essentially merged into the Crown. By English tradition the King following ascension to the English throne granted it to...

    Helmut Kohl, Chancellor first of West Germany and then the reunited Germany between 1982 and 2000. Having been a firm supporter of President Reagan's more aggressive policies with regard to the containment of the Soviet Union, Kohl would prove to be a strong and decisive wartime Chancellor...
