    If Henri IV llived longer would he have sparked the 30YW early?

    I remember reading somewhere that Henri IV of France had a plan to declare war against the HRE, but was killed before he could do it. Is there any reality in this? Would Henri IV have attacked the HRE had he lived longer, and what would this in turn have on the Dutch Revolution (France eying...

    How would a destruction of Israel Play out?

    Say Israel lost in 1948 , or didn't attack in 1967 and was caught completely off guard, how would the World be impacted. Where would the refugees go, and how would the state be dismembered between the victors (I doubting much chance for Palestinians, despite their pleas)?

    East Resurgent: A Revised History of The Modern World

    Well, I have been examining this TL, and have found it inadequate to my taste, and how I wanted it to go.

    Plausibility check: On Epidemics...

    Would it be absurdly ASB to insert a plague into a Timeline if the disease itself is not the PoD? Flu offers itself to this moreso than would Bubonic plague in terms of plausibility, but only one really notable pandemic occurred, and in war conditions. Could a disease create a plague on a...

    Off course after every country let a deligate sign the treaty of Westaphalia, the Holy Roman Empire was sentenced to an existence in name only. How long could it last in this state, and would it dissintegrate due to war or diplomacy? (Hopefully, a butterfly taking out Napoleon would help)

Millions were dragged into the War, A Single Army marched across most of Europe (since after the fall of Rome), and changed the politics of Europe (ie. Balance of Power, who won and lost colonies). So I have two...

    Actually two questions: 1) Could Imperial Germany have won a defensive war if Russia and France launched a preemptive strike? 2) If the French pushed the Saarland Offensive, how would Nazi Germany fare?
