    America Be Watching With The Popcorn: A Sino-Soviet War TL

    Not exactly as I have pointed out. And as I have pointed out, the individual transmitter receivers en masse have a heat burden and voltage spike limit which is easily exceeded. The Starfish Prime shot has been the reason that limited explosive flux capacitance HPM bombs have been fielded. A...

    Maybe P-M will dig up an OTL nobody to be TTL's Pol Pot.

    Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    I think the bigger issue in the Soviet economy was people lying about meeting production quotas. Combined with the secrecy and bribery going on across the entire economy. It made it nearly impossible for central planners to actually plan the economy with any accuracy since they didn't...
  5. Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    I don't really have a counter argument but what you've described kind of reminds me of what the Chinese are described doing here: https://foreignpolicy.com/2020/12/21/china-stolen-us-data-exposed-cia-operatives-spy-networks/ Seems to be working pretty well for them, don't see why the same ideas...

    Can you stop gravebumping the thread with these analysis posts. I don't see a point to them.

    WI: Oda Nobunaga doesn’t get betrayed

    I don't think any of the other daimyo at the time would have been ignorant of the Oda clan's origins. Being descended from the Taira would have been as good a claim as being descended from the Minamoto or Fujiwara, being one of the chief clans of the Heian period. And even if it wasn't, it's an...

So i think it will combine the 2 royal javanese family (the yogyakarta and the surakarta royal family) and combines it with dutch east indies coat of arms (i...

    How far west could the Slavs have gone?

    One problem: that area was already massively depopulated thanks to the work of Attila the Hun, and both sides actively invited settlement because they needed taxpaying buffer populations.

    How far west could the Slavs have gone?

    Austria was Slavic territory; Karnten and Styria were both Croat territories.

  12. Film WI: If "Blazing Saddles" had the "original" casting

    Yeah, the Pythons were kinda sorta partially rooted in the counterculture, so they've probably been able to maintain that posture somewhat. Brooks, I believe, was rooted in 1950s American television, which likely wouldn't leave you well-prepped for a post-60s world. That said, as a real-life...

    Byzantines reconquer southern Italy and Rome by 1100, how does Christendom develop from there?

    Let's just assume that the above happens. It isn't important how it happens. Just that the Byzantines succesfuly reconquer Sicily, and then go about and expand into southern Italy, up to Rome during the Macedonian era. How would Latin Christendom develop? Papacy as an independent power worked...

    How far west could the Slavs have gone?

    They could've definitely kept northern Germany -- just give Charlemagne's successors a bit worse luck. I believe there's actually a fic for that on this site, but I haven't received any notifications in the last month so don't know if it's still up. Theoretically they could've pushed west if...
  15. No Antitrust created or limited to union busting in the USA

    American Economy might stagnate. New Industries might destroyed in infancy or be bought out by bigger firms. Dominant Conglomerate/Trust would dominate economy and politics, hindering taxation to the rich and Industrial Regulation. OSHA and Environmental Law would be hindered or not enacted at all.

    Congrats to you too dude! And thank you to everyone who voted :)
  17. How far west could the Slavs have gone?

    An Ostrogothic kingdom means probably no Lombards in Italy and thus more on the Danube and Pannonia, if anything this would weaken the demographic push on the Danube towards the West and from there also weaken Sorb presence. Without Avars the Slavic migrations are stifled on all directions...

    How far west could the Slavs have gone?

    How about a Samo wank that goes westward?
  19. How far west could the Slavs have gone?

    A Frank screw can be argued to strengthen the Thuringi and Saxon kingdoms and probably push the border a bit eastward in their favour versus Slavs, not sure about the Bavarians.

    Photos from World War Z

    Since Solanum zombies do not eat the dead, Lenin's body would be untouched but would rot. I think the same would happen for the bodies of Stalin, Mao Zedong, and Ho Chi Minh.
