  2. Bleeding Florida: An Alternate History

    Bleeding Florida: An Alternate History PRELUDE: Moses Johnson clutched his right hand and tried to keep it from shaking. The young man, more of a boy, said nothing after buying him. He smiled, true. But Moses was nearly seventy years old and had worked in the fields for almost...

  3. WI: Wilhelm's son becomes King of Georgia?

    Something I saw on Wikipedia that I felt had a lot of AH potential: Prince Joachim of Prussia, youngest son of Kaiser Wilhelm II, was apparently on the short list of candidates to take the throne of Georgia after Georgia declared independence in 1917: What do you think would have been the...

  4. AHC: Save the Morsi Presidency

    Here is a question I’ve been wondering about lately. Was there any way to save the Presidency of Mohammed Morsi in Egypt? The initial gut reaction I had was that the answer was yes. Morsi did almost everything wrong during his brief time as president of Egypt, and in two years he alienated...

  5. The World After Zhirinovsky: The Maghreb (TLIAD)

    THE WORLD AFTER ZHIRINOVSKY: THE MAGHREB Ok folks, a little Christmas present for you guys. A short spin off of Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire. It's just a one day thing, and if I don't get "Bleeding Florida" up soon Unknown will drive down to New Mexico and throw things at me. But I didn't...

  6. Alternate Map Challenge (AMC): Italy

    OK folks, I am going to try a new thing here…the AMC (or Alternate Map Challenge). The rules are pretty much identical to the AHC, only with the only guidance to you being that the country in question has to have the borders featured in the map. Rules: POD after 1900 (obviously) Anything...

  7. Alternate Map Challenge (AMC): Finland

    OK folks, I am going to try a new thing here…the AMC (or Alternate Map Challenge). The rules are pretty much identical to the AHC, only with the only guidance to you being that the country in question has to have the borders featured in the map. Rules: POD after 1900 (obviously) Anything...

  8. AHC: Bosnia-Hercegovina votes against independence in 1992

    With the Scottish independence referendum winding down with voters seemingly rejecting independence, it brings up an interesting question in regards to one of the most significant European independence referendums of the last 50 years: the Bosnian independence referendum of 1992. As you all...

  9. WI: Western Allies on the Oder-Neisse line

    Let’s say that somehow the Western Allies are considerably more successful after D-Day and the Soviets are somewhat less successful, with the end result being that the end of the war sees the Western Allies on the west bank of the Oder and Neisse Rivers while the Soviets end up on the east bank...

  10. The world of "Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire"

    I've decided to start this thread as a sort of place to put some of the "deleted scenes" of the original timeline. I will start with these articles that didn't make the final version of ZRE but I do plan to come back from time to time and update other ideas that I had or that have come to me...

  11. THE DAWG POUND DYNASTY: AN ALTERNATE HISTORY OF THE NFL

    THE DAWG POUND DYNASTY: AN ALTERNATE HISTORY OF THE NFL _______________________________ Introduction There are some teams that you just have to hate. They represent everything that is wrong in sports. They are too cocky. Too arrogant. They buy championships in free agency. And their...

  12. THE POD DUMPING GROUND (AFTER 1900)

    I decided to create this thread as a sort of more in depth version of the TL Ideas you have, but lack the wherewithal to execute thread. Sort of a dumping ground for POD’s that pop into your head, but that you lack the interest in pursuing. But rather than just list the POD, I decided to create...

  13. WI: South Korea though Yeonpyeong shelling was an invasion?

    As many of you are aware, in November of 2010 North Korea responded to a South Korean training exercise by shelling nearby Yeonpyeong Island, hitting both military and civilian targets. It was a disturbing event and was referred to as one of the most “serious incidents” since the end of the...

  14. Could the Allies have invaded Spain?

    Sort of curious about this. Prior to D-Day, the Germans fortified the French coast preparing for the invasion they knew would come. Prior to the invasion of France, many in Britian and the United States were justifiably worried about the prospects of a failed Normandy Invasion. But what if...

  15. THIS TIMELINE SUCKS: A COLLABORATIVE TIMELINE

    OK guys, first of all, this is all in good, light hearted fun. I wanted to start the AH version of Atlanta Nights here: (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Literature/AtlantaNights?from=Main.AtlantaNights) If you guys didn’t know, Atlanta Nights was a joke book written by a group of...

  16. AHC: Make the worst movie you ever saw good

    Title says it all. Worst movie you ever saw, or at least saw recently. You don't have to make it an Oscar winner, but somehow make the movie "good" by industry standards (ie, if if is a slapstick comedy, then it doesn't need to get 5 stars and all, but make it a good slapstick comedy). I'll...

  17. Alternate Sports History 1: WI Yao decides to enter the 1999 draft?

    In 1998 Yao Ming was first approached/pressured into entering the 1999 NBA draft. He declined, but eventually elected to enter the 2002 Draft and was taken with the first pick. But, let’s say Yao enters the 1999 Draft after all… With the #2 pick of the NBA Draft, the Vancouver Grizzlies select...

  18. Could the United Arab Republic have survived?

    watching the diverging path of Syria and Egypt this last week, I wonder if the failed union between the two could have survived at all. I know Nasser dreamed of expanding the UAR to include countries like Algeria, Yemen, Libya and Iraq (which all had quasi-Baathist leadership in the late 60s)...
