  1. AHC: Make "The Cosmic Race" a Popular Idea in the Americas

    ...mestizo and mulato pride. The challenge is to have this idea, or something like it, spread across the Americas, and maybe even lead to a sort of "American* Supremacist" movement. Bonus points if you get it to spread to the white countries like Argentina and the US. *In the continental sense

  2. AHC: Japan becomes a democracy without WWII

    Is it even possible?

  3. What if the Pope crowned Byzantine Emperor Manuel I as Holy Roman Emperor?

    With a PoD any time after 1900, make the Catholic Church split a second time (preferably into European and Pan-American branches).

  5. AHC: The Alliance for Progress works (prosperous cold war Latin America)

    With a PoD anytime after August of 1961, make JFK's Alliance for Progress meet its goals in at least half of the countries in Latin America: 1. an annual increase of 2.5% in per capita income 2. the establishment of democratic governments 3. the elimination of adult illiteracy by 1970 4. price...

  6. AHC: Question Time in the United States

    In the UK, the Prime Minister has to stand up on a podium and answer questions from Parliament for about an hour or so every day that Parliament is in session. It can be an opportunity for the PM to rip on some poor unprepared legislator, for him to slip up in hilarious fashion, or make...

  7. AHC: Canada split into 3+ dominions

    Exactly what it says on the tin. With a PoD anytime after 1800, have Canada split into 3 or more dominions.

  8. AHC: Make Americans Care about the World Baseball Classic

    I've always found it strange, given how popular baseball in the US is, that nobody seems to care about the World Baseball Classic. Our best players avoid it (especially starting pitchers), and the whole thing is run in a way that makes it clear that the priority is keeping the players healthy...

  9. AHC: India=Britain's Algeria/Indochina

    With a PoD anytime after 1900, have the British fight a major war against a nationalist insurgency (or insurgencies) in India, the way that France did in Algeria and Indochina.

  10. Haiti as an ATL Liberia?

    Would it be possible for abolitionists in the US to encourage black migration to Haiti, rather than Liberia?

  11. Development of the US Socialist Party without WWI?

    Assume that the US doesn't join WWI*. Without the OTL backlash from opposing American involvement in the war, would the SPA continue to grow? Or would it still be destroyed by infighting and government repression during the Red Scare? *Entente and Central Powers come to some sort of truce in...

  12. AHC: Presidential Veto Power Removed by Constitutional Amendment

    Exactly what it says on the tin. With a PoD after January 1, 1792, remove the President's power to veto legislation.

  13. AHC: France Wins the Peninsular War

    From what I've read on this site, the Peninsular War is generally considered to be one of the biggest factors in the fall of the French Empire. But with a PoD any time after Napoleon's decision to invade Spain, it possible for France to win the war?

  14. AHC: Baseball in South America Instead of Soccer

    With a PoD anytime after the invention of baseball (sometime around the Civil War, IIRC), make baseball the most popular sport in South America instead of soccer. Soccer can still be somewhat popular, it just has to be second. Kind of like Venezuela, but across the entire continent.

  15. AHC: Ireland Remains a Part of the United Kingdom

    Is it possible for Ireland to remain part of the UK with the support of most of the Irish people?

  16. WI: President Obama Visits Occupy Wall Street Protesters

    Inspired by the discussion on Richard Nixon. What if, at the height of the OWS movement in late 2011/early 2012, Obama had pulled a Nixon and visited them alone? No security, no warning, nothing? What would be the political consequences of doing this?

  17. AHC: First World Latin America

    With a PoD any time after 1900, make the average HDI in Latin America* at least 0.808 and the average GDP per capita at least $14,000**. *To avoid arguments over semantics, let's just say that it's every country in America except for the US and Canada. **In OTL 2013 US dollars.

  18. AHC: Independent Canada

    With a PoD any time before 1867, have Upper and Lower Canada gain their independence as one or two independent republics. This independence has to last (so no annexation by the US or reconquest by Britain).

  19. Was Kennedy Planning to Intervene in Vietnam?

    Exactly what it says on the tin. Bonus points for citing sources besides Oliver Stone.

  20. WI: Lebron Never Goes to Miami

    July 8, 2010 "And now, the answer to the question everyone wants to know: Lebron, what's your decision?" "This fall, I'm staying right here in my home state and continuing to play for the Cleveland Cavaliers." Cue a bunch of kids taking the stage wearing Cavaliers jerseys. Some photos are...
