  1. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    I mean if we’re discussing confederations/personal unions a Greco-Albanian union seems much more likely than a Greco-Bulgarian one. There were at least semi legitimate talks of one OTL and is much less of a geopolitical threat than a Bulgarian one. Plus there’s already some cultural fusion...
  2. The Forge of Weyland

    Pork Barrel politics isn't just an American thing, M.P's want to be re elected and Government contracts are good for that whether they're good for the country or not.

    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    Charles iii would chose Francis over Henry in a heartbeat.
  4. A swift Republican victory in the Spanish Civil War?

    Especially since the Nazis going through the Ardennes forest worked surprisingly well for the Nazis. It was an outlier event. It should not have worked that well, but it did. https://www.airforcemag.com/article/the-fall-of-france/ On the French side, requests for air support were quote—...

    Andrew III of Hungary has a son

    Uhm well Transylvania, Vojvodina and Southern Slovakia might be ethnic hungarian today but not Croatia because it was never part of Hungary simply the king was the same. But anyway this butterflies the Anjous,Premyslids,Jagiellonians and Habsburgs. But we should see how the Arpads will deal with...

    WI: American Panama?

    Statehood wise I reckon it would be quite similar to the Puerto Rico situation, albeit with a larger crowd for independence
  7. German completely adopts the defensive September 1942

    Yeah, that's Germany's 'reward' if they manage to prolong things by a sizable length of time.
  8. Andrew III of Hungary has a son

    @KaiserFriedrichIV and I were actually discussing this (sorta) the other day. I only realized while we were talking how massive a thing this could be.
  9. The Children of Camelot

    Nope, for example Richard II was Prince of Wales when he was heir apparent, but wasn't the son of the reigning monarch.
  10. How long would it take for the Confederates to abolish slavery if they won the civil war?

    Hence this is where I believe the Upper South vs Deep South factionalism comes in.
  11. German completely adopts the defensive September 1942

    That was part of the mechanics of the Hunger Plan, feed the Ostheer by stripping food from the Ukraine while at the same time stopping shipments of food from the Reich to the Ostheer. So yes little of that food reached the Reich, but it achieved its intended effect of increasing the food supply...
  12. WI British/Italian war in the 1930s

    Obvious flash point is when everyone realises Benny is going to invade Ethiopia .... just make the Brits. a bit more agressive when it becomes obvious that the League is never going to lift a finger , eg close the Suez Canal to Italian traffic, supply arms to Ethiopia (for cash on the nail, of...
  13. The Eternal Empire: Emperor Maurice dies before being overthrown

    So real-life Maegor the Cruel?
  14. WI: Volga Bulgaria does not fight the Mongoos

    Volga Bulgaria fought the Mongols, was destroyed and saw a significant proportion of its population killed and the rest deported What if instead it just submitted peacefully? Since it. Would be intact, could it subjugate significant parts of Russia,?
  15. AHC/WI: Stronger IJN light cruiser line

    Raizo Tanaka was one of the luckiest officers in the Japanese Navy. He managed, through sheer competence, to piss off the IJN General Staff to the point that they "gave him an office with a window". Because of that he died in 1969, having gone past his allotted "Three Score and Ten" and almost...
  16. Western Islam or Eastern Islam: which is the more radical divergence?

    It was Persianate, but it has been now increasingly being more and more Arabized due Saudi Funding as well as the loss of prestige of being associated with Persian Culture
  17. AHC: Have Hawaii dump the Union Jack

    I guess not? I go there a lot. I have family on the Big Island. You listen to people talk about it. You see the Hawaiian flag at native protests. In the TMT protests you see them flying it upside down, as a sign of distress. Meaning an embrace of the symbol as that of a people in distress...

    The Eternal Empire: Emperor Maurice dies before being overthrown

    Thanks, I was hoping that this would give a chance to really get introduced to the sort of leader Romanos III is before he actually got into his position as a real leader. I.e. he's aggressive, martial, brave, and very ruthless. Did you mean Romanos rather than the Golden Prince? He already...

    Economic effects of less Spanish colonization of the Americas?

    I think Spain colonized the Rio De La Plata from Peru and Paraguay, so without the conquest of Peru it's possible that Spain never colonizes La Plata.
