  1. AH Cultural Descriptions

    A collection of short stories by Professor Eric Iverson of the University of the Western Cape, about the conquest of the Katanga rain forest by the empires of Mali and Ethiopia, from their creation in the early 1800s to decolonization and the formation of the People's Republican Confederacy of...
  2. America Be Watching With The Popcorn: A Sino-Soviet War TL

    As a fan of Shaw Bros and kung fu films in general, this is a nice silver lining. The Soviets would be as equally demonized as the Qing and Japanese in such films. If Fists of Fury comes out similar to OTL then Bruce Lee’s “We are not sick men!” Line would take on a whole new meaning.
  3. Solar Dreams: a history of solar energy (1878 - 2025)

    There are designs for Deep Winter Greenhouses which use fans to circulate heat from the sun into a bed of rocks underneath the greenhouse. Deep Winter Greenhouses usually face East West with South Facing Angled Glazing to absorb heat. The Deep Winter Greenhouse is a passive solar design which...
  4. And All Nations Shall Gather To It - A Crusades TL

    I think the Crusaders might be able to use the Mongols as a "get out of Byzantine vassalage" free card, saying that they couldn't face the Mongols alone and the Byzies didn't help them, they HAD to submit to another lord! Maybe a little more than unlikely for a strong Crusader state to do...
  5. HMS EAGLE in the Falklands (Story Only)
    Threadmarks: A Flash Forward

    BBC News Argentine Submarine ARA SAN LUIS Found 17 November 2018 The Argentine navy has today announced that the wreckage of a submarine discovered North East of the Falkland Islands has been positively identified as the submarine ARA SAN LUIS. The US based company Ocean Infinity which...
  6. Alternate warships of nations

    You'd have to reopen some closed yards assuming they haven't been completely asset stripped. The big problem would be the Battleships as much of the needed industry had been deliberately destroyed during the building holiday. It would help if at least half of those Destroyers were Corvettes...
  7. Serbian capital moved to Kosovo

    That still doesn't answer the question of "why move the capital from Belgrade?", though. There are other things they could do (such as encouraging ethnic Serbs to settle there) to cement Serbian control, that does not involve moving the capital there. Even if Belgrade is ruined, or not under...

    These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    Each town gets 1 MLA, regardless of population, elected using FPTP. Second, each country gets 5 MLAs plus 1 MLA for each town in the county. The overall result in the county determines the distribution of seats. This system is modelled after Connecticut's pre-Civil Rights Act legislature where...

    For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I have no idea who his VP is.
  11. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Hence why I picked Blossom and The Golden Palace as examples. The former lasted a long time on broadcast television, which could translate into a longer shelf life on cable, and the latter is a continuation on one of Hyperion's first big TV hits. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Palace wasn't on...
  12. Byzantine Survival With the Least Butterflies?

    Am I the only one whose first thought was that the title was talking about literal butterflies? Like, somehow the survival of the Byzantine Empire leads to a decline in global butterfly populations?
  13. HMS EAGLE in the Falklands (Story Only)
    Threadmarks: FOD. Foreign Object Damage

    HMS EAGLE Without even saying a word to excuse themselves despite there being an admiral present Captain Slater and EAGLE’s three senior officers present had sprinted out of the compartment leaving the admirals staff behind. Captain Slater later admitted to himself that he had probably moved...

    Okay, how did a party with 13% of the votes win the most seats?

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

    hehehehehehe....all in due time though. Trickster Mickey definitely sounds more for the hip and edgy 00s/10s than plain Everyman Mickey, who's probably a better fit for the 90s, imo. Hopefully we'll get more network originals for Hyperion TV though, because Fault is right: it's basically a...
  19. Serbian capital moved to Kosovo

    Would it be possible to move the capital to Kosovo out of a desire to cement Serbian control over the region ?
  20. Buddhism lasts in India

    Just that. India is the birthplace of Buddhism and regarded by China as a Holy Land of sorts, yet Buddhism died out there. What would it take for Buddhism to last in India and how it interacts with Hinduism, Islam and Sikhism as well as other South Asian religions. Note, Buddhism coexisted with...
