  1. Ebionite Arabia and the development of the Arabic language

    That said, as I wondered did they brought Arabic only, or also their own Southern Arabic language, if that is in the right region?

  2. AHC: Arianism wins out

    Honestly, how important those theological details where to the mass? To the upper clergy and perhaps some leaders, yes, but in history, up to the Reformation maybe, the mass had always left such 'byzantine' debates to the priests. It would be more said 'spiritual elite' of Niceans that would be...

  3. A Communist Italy and the Mafias?

    Hum, I see, thank. That said, I am not sure if the Italian Communist Party was not homebrew actually. Lot of propaganda around this 'commies=pawns of USSR', but we know it was in parts propaganda as well.

  4. A Communist Italy and the Mafias?

    Considering how the mafias fought leftwingers in OTL, I wouldn't be surprised a Payback Time would be called...

  5. Ebionite Arabia and the development of the Arabic language

    To be technical, they are distinct already linguistically speaking, not the same branches of semitic family or such - the details I forgot. But without Islam and it's ties with Arabic and the arabisation process.... it would fare better.

  6. Would the allies go to war with the Soviets if Nazi Germany didnt come to power?

    Stalin may be less hesitant toward it's southern and eastern neighboors though, to be fair... Like the Japanese possessions, as the poster above pointed.

  7. Ebionite Arabia and the development of the Arabic language

    BTW Would that ensure a better future for what is now called Modern South Arabian Languages? (Not a direct sibling(s) of Arabic, but another branch of Semitic language(s))

  8. A Communist Italy and the Mafias?

    Inspired by a thread on Italy turning Communist and it's relations with the Vatican and Church - what about the Mafias (because Cosa Nostra in Sicily is not alone...)? After all, even nowaday, far-right sympathisers claim the Duce 'squashed mafiosi' (which is not exactly how things may have...

  9. hollywood becomes rightwing

    Good points.

  10. Plausibility Check: Ditheism overtaking Monotheism?

    The problem with Gnostism is that it would have been more like to use hindo-buddhism as a comparaison, A Deva YHVH VS An Ashura FALSE YHVH... Dualism and manicheism of sort, light and darkness, truth and false, not male and female..

  11. PC: Irealand as "Lesser Britain?"

    Do take note (again) that the Bretons are more closely related to the 'old britishes' as Welshes than Irishes, culturally and linguistically; two different branches of the Insular Celtic subfamilly, Brythonic and Gaelic, and as Wikipedia said, Britanny was settled after the fall of Rome by...

  12. Surviving Austro-hungarian monarchy?

    I wonder if the power could turn slowly (back) toward the Hungarians, and Austrians the second fidles to a point, if the POD is distant enough or something... Maybe if Prussia end up gobbling some Austrian lands...

  13. hollywood becomes rightwing

    American/Hollywood movies, avoiding nationalism? :rolleyes: Yes, there is moves to cull down obvious chauvinism, but the number of times americans are the GOOD big G guys, or things shown american pov, or with a light nationalism-patriotism.. :rolleyes: Hollywood LIVES on America, F*** Yeah...

  14. Would the allies go to war with the Soviets if Nazi Germany didnt come to power?

    Economically at least. They geared the economy of Germany for war, and well... Without Nazis or at least... agressive rulers, maybe they would have focused inward to build a more solid base for the nation, less for a gamble andventuring.

  15. Dutch/Portuguese alliance

    Could that means France will ironically mend up relations with somes of it's ennemies in face of this, like Spain yes and/or England? :eek: or at least some conveniance temporary joint ventures...

  16. hollywood becomes rightwing

    Hollywood actually is more rightwing that americans tend to see it generally. Beyond a 'latté liberal' cover, there is pretty much trends of conservatism rising now and then, with noted conservatives figures as Eastwood and Schwarsy. Buddy, you speak of peoples who made Rambo movies by...

  17. Plausibility Check: Ditheism overtaking Monotheism?

    Mitra for the male God may be more likely, the cult of Mitra had entries in a key institution of Rome - the millitary.

  18. Dutch/Portuguese alliance

    Having not seen any bit about it, so... What would be the consequences for France, then?

  19. 1555: Why did some German princes embrace reformation?

    We probably overestimate the spiritual aspect of it, men of power are men of power, catholics, christians or any other - they can use the church and faith to gain power. Many of those Princes saw an avantages into it, as pointed. One wonder how many even really believed much in God beyond...

  20. Plausibility Check: Ditheism overtaking Monotheism?

    Don't fall for the hardline Protestant bit about how Catholics 'worship' Mary and the saints... Not that I am a catholic or anything myself, but it's a bad reading of how those things work, and well, it is used to attack catholics.
