  3. Explain the AH Quote

    A statement from a podcaster in 2010 regarding the recent vote in Ireland on lifting the ban on organized catholicism within the confines of the Republic - it failed as it had for the last hundred and six years, ever since Ireland led a revolt against Britain from 1887-1904. Britain had, due to...

    WI: Castilian-Portuguese union instead of Castilian-Aragonese union?

    One of the major problems of the Reconquista was that the peace suddenly left hordes of men who knew nothing but how to fight with nothing to do, and there was always the threat of mass unrest or banditry among them. Thus, when the New World appeared on the horizon, the kings actively marketed...

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    R Rated Cocktail is an interesting change there. Sounds like one of those dark, cynical tales that will be turning up on 80's nostaglia lists now as' this is what it was really like'. Definite Oscar bait. Had to look up Jim Thorpe- what a story! I can see why he was such biopic material...
  7. A stronger Poland: what would be the effects on Hungary and the Balkans?

    surely a Stronger Poland that incorporates Bohemia/Moravia/Slovakia draws it into great power rivalry with the Holy Roman Empire. Poland is then sucked into that, leading to conflict and wars. rather than trying to trying to defend Christendom later on, the scars of centuries of conflict...
  8. The German Century

    The french crossing the ardennes is even less likely. Some german supply lines will be there and they will be guarded. ATL WW2 should start with some minor border skimishes on the franco german border and not with a french ultimatum.
  9. AH Cultural Descriptions

    A TV Show in Britain starring the cartoon pig Peppa Pig, and her uncle, nicknamed Salt. The show centers around Salt teaching Peppa how to cook, and her using the lessons from cooking in other parts of her life. The Ballad of William Riker
  10. How far west could the Slavs have gone?

    "Successful" Vinland plus the king of Holmgard (relatively slavicized) unites Scandinavia. Slavs settle Long Island as part of efforts to culturally homogenize the realm, or in an effort to get away from the long arm of the king, or brought as cheap labor/slaves.
  11. East German Army if GDR didn't reunited with West Germany in 1991?

    That is not true at all. Yes, the GDR did have a quite huge national debt (86.3 billion DM to be precise), however the situation was far from catastrophic. In 1989, the GDR's debt ratio amounted to 27.6% of it's GDP. For comparison, the FRG's debt ratio amounted to 41.8% of it's GDP. The real...

    DBAHC: Why were the Ottomans and Safavids reluctant to go to war with each other.

    The Ottomans and Safavids were the two leading Muslim powers in the world since the early 16th century the collapse of the empires in the early 20th century, and to this day multiple states from the Maghreb to Bengal are lead by monarchies from these two dynasties. But since the Treaty of...
  13. AHC: Bob Saget elected Governor of Maryland

    Still not going to happen MD doesn't elect carpetbaggers. You have to have worked your way up the party structure (especially with the Dems who hold most of the power in the state) I am curious as to why the sudden interest in MD politics. We are not a step to national office so why would...
  14. How far west could the Slavs have gone?

    During their migration the farthest recorded push of the Slavs west was a warband appearing near Paris. If we are talking about probable rather than just possible areas of settlement I would say Jutland and southern Appenine peninsula should be the extent if the same migration patterns are...

    An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    You're comparing apples and oranges here. You say there was only a little bit of tension in Germany but that was only because of the existence of nationalism. We are two hundred years before that. Before then some of the most destructive Wars in European history until Napoleon were fought...

    Well done, @FalconHonour, my dear. A well deserved win!
  19. How important was the Dunkirk evacuation ?

    I think the greatest impact would be on the colonies, with Britain fair weaker and Free France having lost so much in short amount of time, you would expect a lot of unrest and might see some new rebellions. Now their are a lot of options to replace the men they lost, Britain could try to get a...
