    And All Nations Shall Gather To It - A Crusades TL

    Well, the Habsburgs did hold at one point quite a dispersed realm in the 16th century, between Hungary, Austria, Bohemia, the Netherlands, imperial Burgundy, Spain, Milan and Naples. Even after they split into the German and Spanish branches, the Spanish dominions were barely less spread out...

    Request Maps/Flags/Coats of Arms/Heraldry here, II

    The eagle on the flag I posted is basically this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Russia#/media/File:Lesser_Coat_of_Arms_of_Russian_Empire.svg And what I want is basically to have the wings replaced by the wings of this one...

    Why wasn't Runic script adopted more widely

    There were also variants of rune-scripts used by other cultures as well. Turks and Magyars come to mind. I think there's several reasons - as mentioned above, once mass conversions to Christianity and Islam began, the old scripts were associated with the "old ways" and heathen rites. Also one...

    Thank you!
  5. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    I would have just said he was somewhere off screen on another ship. Like how they had Rand popping up in Spacedock and Starfleet HQ.
  6. AHC: Have Hawaii dump the Union Jack

    @Workable Goblin Just to clarify, when you say... ...do you mean that only Polynesians from Hawaii are called "Hawaiian"? And if so, what is the word used to denote someone from the state of Hawaii, regardless of ethnicity(like eg. a Texan is anyone from Texas)?
  7. WI: Hellenistic Tarim Basin?

    Indeed, however I feel that the first impetus to move west in the Da Han state was to explicitly gather allies against the Xiongnu. According to the Grand Historian, the state of Han had only learned of the defeat that the Yuezhi Gara had suffered to the Xiongnu-Wusun confederacy more than a...
  8. WI British/Italian war in the 1930s

    Sometimes when people don't agree with you it's not because they don't understand but because they have a different opinion. Britains main financial strength was many decades of a responsible financial policy. Banking on its traditional financial strengths to implement a debt/inflation based...
  9. Hawker Hurricane even more prolific and versatile?

    Fair enough. I got it wrong because I wasn't looking at the photographs. I was reading the text to see which aircraft were built at Longbridge and which were built at other Austin plants.
  10. Byzantines reconquer southern Italy and Rome by 1100, how does Christendom develop from there?

    This a myth the only thing that happened like that was the jewish in the byzantine sassanid war of 602-628 and the jews were not polítical leaders As for centralization vs feudal the early theme system goes against this the themes had a disturbing tendency to revolt against central authority...

    Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    Although I retract my statement about HMS MALAYA, I'm pretty sure this HMS VALIANT is a ghost ship since the original one was lost off Benghazi on November 24, 1941. https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/keynes-cruisers.388788/page-235#post-15969610 :p

    The Forge of Weyland

    And Ford UK and Ford France, those bastions of One Man Rule:rolleyes: Henry put in as large a plant in any country as he could, with only the Moose in Italy resisting the Deals that Ford offered.
  16. Hawker Hurricane even more prolific and versatile?

    Parts of Post 197... With a POD of 1st December 1934 how can we have the Hurricane and Spitfire prototypes flying closer to schedule so that small batches can be ordered as part of Scheme C? The aircraft ordered in these batches would be deducted from the 600 Hurricanes and 310 Spitfires...

    Near Courseulles-sur-Mer, France 0605 May 14, 1944 The naval bombardment ceased. The sun had not quite popped over the horizon, but the light was starting to brighten the morning. The waves were not high, barely overlapping the anti-boat and anti-tank obstacles that were several feet under...
  20. What if the French Revolution never happened? | Fraternité en Rébellion

    If you are meaning 170 million in 1925 (since that is the year you gave for your previous estimate), then wow! Even if you mean 170 million as of 1933, then that is still 8 million more than the USSR OTL 1937 population! I look forward to your next chapter!
