  1. AHC: no unification of China by Qin

    https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015066789887&view=1up&seq=218 Has some interesting points regarding other philosophies that could have influenced China if it was divided (Mohism) as well as the potential for the Xiongnu Empire to be butterflied from existence, possibly prolonging...

    TL-191: Featherston's Finest - Uniforms, Weapons, and Vehicles of the CSA and Freedom Party

    And yet the US is going to keep Canada? No. They aren't going to let the former Confederate states go under any circumstances. Twice bitten, thrice shy. Not after two Great Wars, a Civil War, and the Mexican War. That would be political suicide.
  3. In the absence of George Washington who becomes the first US President?

    Without Washington, there won't BE a president, at least not the position we know. It was written knowing he'd be the first one and set precedent for behaviour. The whole Constitution would be very different without him. Pity the poor US if Washington dies between the time of the adoption of...
  4. AHC: World War fought in North American soil?

    There's a difference between descending into fascism and having a civil war. The first although unlikely is not ASB. The 2nd is ASB.
  5. AHC: Make Japan into a multiparty democracy

    Japan has a "one-and-a-half party system". So this is your AHC, make Japan into a multiparty democracy.
  6. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    I dunno, seems to me that they could just as easily take the view that Russia fought hard to liberate the Balkan nations but most of Europe rose up to stop them from destroying the Ottomans and firmly opposed a Bulgarian state. I would imagine that the blame would be placed much more on the...
  7. WI: Hellenistic Tarim Basin?

    If a full scale Hellenistic Warlord is left in control with a decent army in the tarim basin that successor may be a decent problem for the Chinese as it would be expensive to fight the greeks in the tarim basin and leave the xiongnu to the north. also, the successor would have bigger issues...

  9. Weekly Flag Challenge: Discussion & Entries

    The Moghul Republic (est. 1796) My entry for a flag for India begins halfway around the world from there. In the mid 1700s, when France began fortifying their claim to the Ohio River Valley, Great Britain protested with counter claims. To prevent the situation from escalating into open war...

  11. WI: Warsaw Pact armies if USSR liberalizes

    ...is arguably the strongest in the world, or at least a close second, the USSR has tremendous diplomatic and ideological power, livings standards and life expectancies are rising. The only area where I do think you could see serious reform is agriculture, which was a clusterf*** since Stalin.

    Just a minor point, historically Warspite was part of the Bombardment force in Normandy. Is another vessel taking her place?
  14. Film WI: If "Blazing Saddles" had the "original" casting

    Actually, I understand Gig Young was cast as the Waco kid. On the first day of shooting Young started vomiting uncontrollably, and Brooks originally thought it was a setup with the actor really getting into the role, but they soon realized the poor man was really suffering the effects of long...
  15. How important was the Dunkirk evacuation ?

    I pointed that before the evacuation, when the loss of the BEF was anticipated (but did not break British morale), that the fall of France was not anticipated. This was your response That is, in support of the proposition that the fall of France was anticipated by 27 May, you cited British...
  16. The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    ok that's why the Mongols are invading again. This war will be fun to watch as we know that David and Trebizond will win, but by how much? Will David have the strength to fight the neo-rumites after this war? ps: Will Trebizond eventually rule Kartvelia through personal union?
