  2. Weimar's last chance.

    What is the latest date that the Weimar Republic could have survived as a democracy? My personal opinion is the von Papen deal, after that it was basically a choice between a Military/Nationalist Dictatorship, the Nazi's, or the KPD it that order of probability. But what do you think? When...
  3. American Religious Fervour Switch.

    New England and Virginia were both settled with a decade of each other by very different groups.

  4. P. E. Trudeau

    There are a lot of politicians with controversial legacies, Gough Whitlam, Maggie Thatcher etc. but for every ardent hater they have their defenders. With the exception of a few short term disasters, e.g John Gorton there are few politicians who are universally derided here. But P.E.T seems to...
  5. DBWI: What if Hitler hadn't be shot by Maurice Bavaud

    As we all know German Fuhrer Hitler was assassinated by Maurice Bavaud on 9 November 1938.

  7. A Different Dragon

    Having tried and failed to do this before I am determined to write and finish my first timeline for this board. With that in mind I humbly present my re-working of my hopefully more realistic Draka timeline. Timeline Segment 1 1775 Benedict Arnold wins the Battle of Quebec, Quebec joins the...
  8. Survival of Sertorian Spain

  10. A Different Dragon

    I've been a great fan of the Draka ever since I first read the books on the recommendation of this site. However the basic problem is as has been pointed out ad nauseam the fundamental implausibility of the TL most especially the astonishing early growth of the Draka and the lack of butterflies...
  11. Patton in Korea

    I was thinking about the Korean War and how MacArthur nearly set off WW3 by pushing for the Yalu. What if there was a different commander, what if there was... Patton? PoD butterfly away his car accident, he stays in the Army, probably the Army of Occupation in Germany. 1950 NK invades and...

  13. German 20th Century Victory timelines.

    The German wins a World War timeline is understandably quite popular as she managed to lose not one but two World wars in the first half of the 20th century shaping the world we live in today. Now most time lines starting post 1933, with WW2 analogues and ending with Germania Invicta have...

  15. World at War

    Preamble This is going to be a semi-dystopic world of war that unlike some other dystopias tries to be realistic. I will be the first to admit that this idea is based on Chris’s Carrier War’s TL. However it has a few twists. So first things first the actual story will...
