  1. AHC: Plague of Justinian Results in Larger, More Powerful Sassanids

    Something I've seen thrown around a couple of times on this site is that the best way to arrest the decline of the Byzantine Empire would be to avert the Plague of Justinian, but from what I understand this same plague had a crippling effect on the Sassanids as well, at a time when they had a...
  2. PC: Russo-Ottoman Alliance, WWI

    Before the Ottoman Empire officially entered the war, there were serious talks going on between the Ottoman and Russian government in Constantinople about an alliance that would free up Russian troops in the Caucasus to fight in Eastern Europe. However, these talks were brought to a halt when...
  3. AHC: Reverse Trojan War

    DISCLAIMER: I (along with, as far as I can tell, everyone else on this board) am well aware that the Trojan War as depicted in Homer's Iliad is less than factually accurate, and the POD I'm looking for will have nothing to do with the specific events described therein. That being said, there...

    What it says on the tin folks. Would it be possible to have a successful communist revolution in Poland between the two world wars? If so, when would this be most likely to happen? If the Nazis still come to power in Germany, would the fact that the Poles are now a bunch of dirty reds keep...
  6. DBWI: Balkanise America

    Given the problems going on in America recently, I was wondering if the whole place wouldn't be better off balkanised. So, what would it take? What would it take to get all those little squabbling countries north of New Spain to be a strong, united, multi-ethnic power like the United States of...
  7. Non-Western Powers Colonizing India

    Hey everybody, I'm new here (and will be playing that card until I break 10 posts) but I've been lurking for a LONG time, and thought I'd finally post a question on this forum. In OTL India was eventually taken over completely by Britain, but what other powers could have had large colonies...
