  1. WI: Mass immigration of Africans into the Reconstruction-era South?

    There would be almost zero change. Liberia in the mid-19th century consisted of a few Americo-Liberian settlements along the coast which were thoroughly segregated from the indigenous population that filled the remainder of the country. The Americo-Liberians were generally Christian...

    You may also be interested in this thread, which has a large variety of maps of that type.
  3. 1763: all french-canadiens are forced to go to Louisiana.

    Venice gets snow once or twice a year. Its average temperature is on par with Saint Louis, MO, and its average winter low temp is about the same as Memphis, TN.

    It's a sketch about New Mexicans In the timestamp linked, the main character asks "Do you want a Coke?" four times, each time holding a different bottle (Sprite, Orange Crush, Mountain Dew, Pepsi)

    I'm guessing you just typed English words into a Cyrillic keyboard. In making foreign placenames, it's worth remembering that the vast majority of written languages use phonetic spelling, and English is not one of them. That means you have to type sounds, not spellings, if you want to...
  6. WI: President Bilbo deports 12 million African Americans to Liberia

    The United States of the 1930s would not be logistically capable of such a thing. First, many southerners profited directly from the slavery-like sharecropping system that employed a large section of the black population at the time. 30 to 50% of some states were black; deportations of that...
  7. Who could be the Iranian Mussolini if Germany barely wins WW2(Thousand Week Reich)

    Judging entirely from their Wikipedia articles, having not heard of any of these people previously: The last guy would be 21 in 1948, so he's out, except perhaps as a successor. Zahedi in OTL plotted a pro-German coup, but Aryana waged a guerilla war against the Allies. If the Allies were...
  8. What do you think would happen if the British Empire didn't fall?

    Doesn't have to be a whole lot of people, just has to be enough that sending them back home would be logistically unfeasible, at least when compared to sending more troops.
  9. What do you think would happen if the British Empire didn't fall?

    If the British empire loses India, I think most would characterize that as it having "fallen." To me, this means that the liberal democratic world order needs to be butterflied away entirely, which requires at least a pre-WW2 POD. You bring up settler colonies, which makes me think, why did...

    The issue is that there are four distinct colors in the legend and only three on the map. The dark brown of the "Iron Axis" is #902a00. This is the same as the dark brown on the map. The two colors marked as "Anti-Soviet Pact" are the light brown, #b97a57 and dark red, #880015. The former...

    Why does the Anti-Soviet pact have a wine color that is unused in the map itself?

    One day, all the earth's borders somehow miraculously changed. Every reference in every book, map, computer file, and so on was altered, and all border markers and points of entry were moved miraculously. Two messages were found in an alien language, carved into Antarctica. The UN, reasoning...

    Recently I haven't been able to upload more than 512 kb directly in any format, how are you able to?
  15. Map Thread XXI

    The size limit is 512 kb, nothing to do with the extension. PNG files are usually larger, yes, but images with large swaths of solid colors and a limited color palette can certainly be compact. This image, for example (not my own work) is a PNG with well over 1 megapixel but it takes up less...

    I love how if you didn't already know what these countries looked like, this would look like a perfectly reasonable elevation map.

    Not even; Shangri-La is a fictional name constructed from Tibetan; Shambhala is a Sanskrit term. The two languages are not related.
