  1. What if Shinzo Abe Survived Assassination and Escaped?

    This is probably political chat, I’ll try to answer carefully to avoid the thread being moved, even though it’ll likely be moved. The impact is minimal. First off, no big change to the upper house election results. The LDP-Komeito alliance was poised to maintain its majority, they may win one...
  2. Peace Without Dignity - The Presidency of Lien Chan (2004-08) and Onwards

    The author has the right to continue or reboot a TL regardless of how many years it is since the last update, so here’s an announcement. As I’ve got more time now that I’m doing my masters on urban planning, I’m going to continue this timeline, 10 years after it was abandoned. There’ll be 4-5...
  3. The Death of Russia - TL

    I should have added “west of the Urals”😂
  4. The Death of Russia - TL

    Thanks for the clarification, and I would also like to clarify if it’s “only” the Elmendorf Air Base getting nuked or Anchorage itself. The difference would be huge, having just done a simple check on the nuke map. My guess is China would actually survive, and there seems to be indication that...
  5. The Death of Russia - TL

    Excellent but horrifying timeline. Considering that I’m now sightseeing near the White Cliff, Dover, I was just sweating a bit when I read through the latest update. There should be sequels to TTL, be there Protect and Survive-esque spin-offs or stories on the nuked non-Russian areas. The total...
  6. How viable would a surviving Manchukuo be

    A communist Manchuria is far more likely than a surviving Japanese Manchuria. And a Japanese Manchuria would eventually be overthrown by Communist insurgency. Would explain in detail later.

    For those who've never read Version 1.0, the link is here: https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/a-song-was-heard-in-china-a-different-tiananmen.190867/ As you may notice, my POD in Version 2.0 is different from that in Version 1.0. In this timeline, Zhao Ziyang did not go to...

    Please visit this link for the reboot: https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/a-song-was-heard-in-china-a-different-tiananmen-version-2-0.438001/ And could a mod please lock this thread for the time being?

    A Song was Heard in China A Different Tiananmen by Tony Kwok (KWOK Tin-lap) Preface Seven years have passed since I first began writing a timeline on an alternate Tiananmen. Back then I was a student with a strong sense of belonging to my Chinese heritage, with the firm belief that freedom and...

  12. A Song was Heard in China - A Different Tiananmen

    Next week. And on the other hand do you think I should create another thread for the reboot and lock this one?
  13. A Song was Heard in China - A Different Tiananmen

    For those who don’t understand what Hanfu is, Hanfu is a traditional Chinese garment, and the Chinese equivalent of Kimono in Japan. Below is an OTL picture of Professor Guo Quan wearing a Hanfu at a lecture, Nanjing Normal Univetsity, where he taught before being jailed.
  14. A Song was Heard in China - A Different Tiananmen

    After Brexit and the election of Donald Trump, and years of study into and personal interaction with parts of the Chinese dissident community, I’ve come to a very different approach as for what’s likely to happen in democratic China. I would try to be as realistic as possible, and it isn’t that...
  15. A Song was Heard in China - A Different Tiananmen

    29 Years Later: The Construction of Democracy with Chinese characteristics "As the matter stands, if we look at the surrounding events from here, we can consider three ways to organize a state that we so far knew, as a starting point: the nation state, the liberal state and then the welfare...

  17. WI: Nixon in the 1980s

    If you must have Reagan removed from office by 1974, an assassination might sound more plausible. Reagan's seemingly hands-off approach on virtually everything, allowing members of his administration to take enough credit, would make it difficult to prove that he has actually done anything wrong...
  18. Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes IV (Do not post Current Politics Here)

    Nice try. But Hong Kongers simply don't use Chinese pinyin. We use Cantonese to pronounce and romanise our names. For example, my surname is 郭, and it should be "Guo" using Chinese pinyin. But on my birth certificate, HK ID Card and British passport, it would become "Kwok" - which is exactly how...
  19. How do you stop China becoming Communist?.

    Prevent the Xi'an Incident in 1936. Before Xi'an, KMT's strategy to eliminate the internal enemy before going against Japan worked well, and the Nationalist Army was about to eliminate the Commies completely within a few months. If Chang Hsueh-liang and Yang Hucheng did not stage the coup, the...
  20. List of Alternate Presidents and PMs II

    Since I'm going to reboot my TL, A Song Was Heard in China, I would like to present to you my earliest thoughts on who should have been presidents of the US in my original TL, even though this version has been trashed immediately after consulting several members of AH.com. It was already known...
