    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    I disagree. John wasn't massively fond of the Emperor after he lost Eleanor of Portugal to his father, and that's before Charles has been forced to repudiate Isabella, again. Besides, as of January 1522, John's a new King seeking to make his mark on Christendom. I could see him taking a...
  2. What if communism didn’t exist

    Anarchism would take its place. In my opinion, there are a lot of similarities between Communism and Anarchism.
  3. When did Western Europe become truly dominant?

    IMO, a state like Mysore was in a very good position to industrialize. If they had good diplomacy and avoided surrounding themselves with powerful enemies, they might have stayed up with western Europe.
  4. WI: decisive Spanish victory in the Dutch Revolt

    It would probably cause a mass exodus of protestants to England, Scotland, Scandinavia and Germany, whic include the loss of a lot of capital (since many protestants were rich merchants). I assume it would take the Netherlands a century or so to recover that loss (we saw something similar in...

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

    I guess that's one advantage of a more Sentai-like franchise like Bio-Force compared to Power Rangers but I do feel kinda sad that we're gonna butterfly away stuff like Lord Zedd and the overarching plots. Not to mention we leave our iconic cast members out of a long-running job, assuming the...

    Byzantine Survival With the Least Butterflies?

    What about a scenario akin to Separated at Birth where the Greeks settle their national soul-searching by developing a national identity emphasizing their Byzantine past, seeing themselves as Rhomaioi/Romios, instead of what happened IOTL where they revived the label of Hellene? Could that count?

    AHC: WW1 with pro Central Powers Serbia/Greece and Pro Entente Bulgaria/Ottoman Empire

    Ottomans win the war with Italy (which butterflies away the Balkan War). Since there is no Balkan War, Serbia doesn't shift its attention towards A-H, focusing on driving Ottomans out of Balkans. When the Great War occurs, A small war occurs in Balkans. (Serbia and Greece declare war on...
  10. Sweden-Norway joins the Second Schleswig War

    Would it have impact on unification of Germany? Thestill a chance that Germans would build a stronger navy and try a third time
  11. A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    Impossible at this point. If Charles had married Isabella and was forced to marry Catherine to someone else, would be different, but now that wedding is inevitable.
  12. WI: decisive Spanish victory in the Dutch Revolt

    What if the Spanish won decisively quickly, recaptured all of Netherlands and ended the war after a few years? Of course lots of Ptotestants would emigrste to England, Poland and other parts of Europe
  13. Sweden-Norway joins the Second Schleswig War

    Well to paraphrase one Willie Keeler, the Danes keeping their eyes clear and hitting the Prussians where they ain't, is a sure shot way to win

    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    You did indeed! Thank you for that. ❤ Ah, but who says John's marrying Catherine? The altered balance of power in TTL Europe may mean he takes a different bride...

  16. Sweden-Norway joins the Second Schleswig War

    With this strategy would the Danes won?

    AHC: WW1 with pro Central Powers Serbia/Greece and Pro Entente Bulgaria/Ottoman Empire

    AHC: Devise a scenario for how WW1 begins and unfolds with a pro-German/Austro-Hungarian Serbia and Greece alongside a pro-Entente Bulgaria and Ottoman Empire. What are the preconditions for such a system of alliances to emerge? How would the war play out assuming in the event of an Entente or...

    Dengist USSR

    Is it possible for the USSR to have a leader like Deng Xiaoping and have it (and possibly the rest of the Eastern Bloc as well) reform like China IOTL? If it's possible, then who could be the USSR's Deng? What's the most suitable POD? What would be the effects?
