  1. How long would it take for the Confederates to abolish slavery if they won the civil war?

    I'd argue it would matter which Confederacy won. A triumphant CSA of 1862 that wins in October after defeating Mcclellan is a very different place from the threadbare skeleton of a country holding on outside Atlanta and Petersburg in a Nov. 1864 scenario. I think the latter probably would free...

    AHC/WI: Stronger IJN light cruiser line

    Why the hell was CruDiv 9 sent on Operation MI anyway? They were part of the Aleutians Guard Force but got nowhere close to the islands anyway, and they were terrible vessels for screening BatDiv 2, which was what they were used for. If I were Yamamoto, I'd just leave them behind and have them...

    Hmm so would it require a pod before 1900 then?
  5. Western Islam or Eastern Islam: which is the more radical divergence?

    This was because Iran was the only region where Islam only took over religiously, but Culturally the people remained Iranian, instead of being assimilated in Arabic Culture like North Africa or Levant, as such when Native Islamic Powers in Iran emerged, they were very distinctly Persian in...
  6. In the absence of George Washington who becomes the first US President?

    We had this discussion a couple weeks ago. I can't find the thread though. The Federalists won't have the support in the Middle States without Washington favoring them over the Antifederalists during his presidency and due to the country being more pro French than later on, so a Adams...

  8. AHC: even larger migration to US from ireland

    Earlier and more production of steam ships for improved transportation, a large land grant program in the US aimed at Irish immigrants, a British government encouraging the migration.

  11. How long would it take for the Confederates to abolish slavery if they won the civil war?

    The confederacy being a separate country isn’t going to stop northern abolitionists. Some of those groups had deep pockets and they would have sent a constant stream of cheap guns to the slaves. Enough bloody uprisings could have broken the south’s back within a generation, especially combined...

    maybe "did someone do it ?" or "has someone got around to do it ?" would come off a bit less demanding.
  14. Nuclear energy=nuclear weapons?

    Problem is that while Ok yes the science and methodology behind Nuclear weapons and Nuclear reactors is not exactly the same, their close enough that it's nigh on impossible to have the abstract ability to do one and not the abstract ability to do the other. (even if there are technical steps...

  17. German completely adopts the defensive September 1942

    No, they didn't. By 1945 Soviets did quite the opposite - they stopped draft of the youngest age groups in all regions besides freshly liberated ones.
  18. German completely adopts the defensive September 1942

    Such a withdrawal in 1942 basically means saying that they lost the war and lost it badly. Furthermore, such a move could very easily end up leading to a coup or even a popular uprising because to large parts of the population it felt like they were still winning, and now all the sacrifices are...
  19. German completely adopts the defensive September 1942

    You cannot win a war by defending. But you can loose it. It is kinda a persistent problem with strategic defense, you allow the opponent to choose the time and place of the battle. People sometimes misunderstand the nature of early German advantage over the Soviets. Yes, they basically always...
  20. German completely adopts the defensive September 1942

    What about completely withdrawing to the old German Soviet border? This would shorten the frontline by half approximately. In 1945 the Soviets were also very low on manpower and started drafting 16 and 17 years olds to fill the losses.
