  1. What if Adi Shankaracharya had been accepted by Hindus as the leader of their faith (kind of like the pope in catholicism)?

    Would it have been remotely possible in a scenario where Emperor Harsha succeeded to become the Indian equivalent of Qin Shi Huang, with his dynasty establishing a stable empire that fended off if not even pushed back against the early Caliphate invasions?

  2. Graphic Request Thread

    Can someone make an Austin version of the following Morris badge, with the Red of the Austin-Healey badge replacing the dark Blue? Also would it be possible to produce two badges reading Austin in differing scripts? One that is the same as the Morris badge below, the other being a clear version...

  3. Wars that could have happened, but didn't.

    With Argentina and Chile, were there any other areas of conflict between them outside of Tierra del Fuego that could have accelerated into war? Add Peru into the mix against Chile and it is just a matter of trying to create a some sort of WW1-esque out of control domino effect that brings in...

  4. Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    Would it essentially be a reduced Lebanon with the Litani and Orontes Rivers acting as a partial border or would it be smaller?

  5. Unbuilt Britain

    Wren's plans would have certainly helped lay the groundwork later on when early ideas for what became the Ringways and related roads/avenues through the city were being considered. Combine that with original plan for Fenchurch Street station to terminate slightly west at Lime Street, followed...

  6. Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    Depending on how things pan out would a post-war ATL Turkey under Soviet influence get its own Spartakaid event as done in OTL after WW2 by the Soviets, Czechoslovakia, Albania and at the 1984 Friendship Games?

  7. Mongol Conquest of India! What if Iltutmish got the ire of the Great Khan?

    Had the Mongols conquered India, would they have been able to expand into Burma up to the Salween River next to the conquered Dali kingdom?

  8. Darfur remains independent by not supporting the Ottomans

    Could the French have taken Darfur and made it part of Chad in ATL?

  9. AHC-WI : Everything goes wrong in the Eastern Front for the Axis in WW2

    Just thinking if conventional AH wisdom has it that a neutral Italy scenario would have allowed the Axis to focus more on the Eastern Front, would the absence of the Winter and Continuation Wars have in turn strengthened the Soviets along roughly similar lines?

  10. Unique scenarios for Latin America

    How far would Brazil have gotten apart from slightly prolonging slavery if the British were on a campaign to abolish it and how would it have impacted the pre-existing decent relations between them? As dire as a Draka-style Brazil sounds if fully realised and admittingly displaying ignorance...

  11. Unique scenarios for Latin America

    On the matter of the Brazilian Empire retaining Portuguese colonies in Africa, how plausible would it have been for a scenario where Angola and possibly elsewhere were instead divided between them? Loosely inspired by the unrealised OTL Portuguese breakaway colonies like one in northwest Angola...

  12. Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    In practice were the Pomak regions that Greece is interesting in gaining and which were at one time interested in joining Greece, mainly comprised most of OTL Blagoevgrad, Smolyan and Kardzhali along with bits of Pazardzhik and Haskovo provinces?

  13. Unique scenarios for Latin America

    Drawing inspiration from Paraguay focusing only on Argentina Like the idea of a scenario where Paraguay pushes southwest beyond Formosa into parts of Salta, Jujuy and Catamarca, before ending up gaining Puna de Atacama thereby sharing a border with Chile and getting into messing disputes with it.

  14. Unique scenarios for Latin America

    Probably not original yet like the idea of a: - Territorially screwed (both north and south) yet prosperous Mexico (that was sympathetic to the Central Powers) with a longer Porfiriato analogue (managing to build a canal at the Isthmus of Tehuantepec), also a successful Virginia New Colony by...

  15. Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    Could see Greece being a destination for White émigrés and others in ATL that were in OTL repatriated during Operation Keelhaul, which have seen some numbering as high as up to 2-5 million.

  16. Unique scenarios for Latin America

    Another idea would be a scenario where Brazil manages to gain access to the Pacific Ocean as a result of Pedro I accepting Bolivia’s offer to become a vassal of Brazil, which then becomes embroiled in the Atacama dispute and triumphing in the aftermath of the ATL War of the Pacific analogue...

  17. Unique scenarios for Latin America

    How plausible would it have been for the British to gain Rio Grande do Sul and the rest of Los Lagos region with the right earlier PODs? More interesting would be how the area could have had a more of a Celtic character via immigration (like the Welsh in OTL plus the potential higher Irish...

  18. AHC: fellow Conservatives in UK talk Margaret Thatcher out of “Community Charge” (Poll Tax) in 1989 ?

    Along with avoiding the Poll Tax riots (perhaps via alternate Council Tax with gradual introduction of certain exemptions and discounts). What-if Margaret Thatcher stuck to her instincts in not only defying the European Community to keep interest rates low enough by drastically cutting it by 5%...

  19. What if Britain fought in the Vietnam War?

    Following article from international socialism journal aside yet fascinated by the idea that had Hugh Gaitskell in ATL lived long enough to become PM in place of Wilson in 1964, he would likely have despatched a token force to fight alongside the Americans regardless of the Labour left...

  20. AHC: African American nation in the South in the 19th Century

    Would such an idea have been possible in an altered butterfly net form beginning with a POD of Texas being admitted into the US slightly earlier (in early-1844 instead of late-1845) and its later impact on internal population migration patterns within the US? The above results in Sam Houston...
