  1. Japanese Success At Pearl Harbor - Japan Still Doomed?

    If Japan could completely eliminate all US forces and capture Hawaii, and later bomb and destroy the Panama Canal, then it could fare better, but it would eventually be defeated.

  2. Needs Help With a POD for Earlier and Bloodier WWI?

    1904 with the Russo Japanese war. France and Britain were allied with Russia and Japan respectively, and you'd probably have all of Europe joining in the fight in order to reap as many benefits as possible. WW1 should have been a war limited to Austria-Hungary and Serbia, instead a long network...

  3. Japan attacks the Soviet Union

    Operation Barbarossa that's why. Stalin was really friggin worried that the Japanese would invade Siberia after Barbarossa.

  4. Japan attacks the Soviet Union

    So before Japan attacked the United States there was a fierce debate between the Army and the Navy on whether to attack the United States and expand into the European dominated South (Navy supported) or the Soviet Union and the sparsely populated by mineral rich coastal north (Army supported)...

  5. Challenge: Multilingual America

    French dominate Maine (near Quebec) and Louisianna (where French was common) and you have two French states. Increase the number of Cubans and Puerto Ricans in Florida, and bring in more Mexicans to Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico, and Spanish becomes a bigger language. Bring in a ton of...

  6. Italy and France

    Italy suffered from overpopulation. What would have happened if Italy managed to relocate enough Italians (I'd guess some 3 to 5 million) across the empire to keep the majority of it. Italy keeps: Italian Somaliland, Eritrea, Libya Italy loses: Tentsin, Ethiopia, Dodecanese, and the border...

  7. After the Mongol Sacking

    So is there any way that Zoroastrianism, Eastern Orthodox Christianity, Sufi Islam, and Buddhism could have become the dominant religions in the Non-Arabian portion of the Abbasid caliphate after the sacking of Baghdad by the mongol Empire?

  8. Result of the 2nd Sino-Japanese War

    They could never keep control of China entirely. At best it could keep what it had before the war, take control of a few ports, peninsulas, and Islands, and carve out a very nice sphere of influence. It also could keep Manchuria and support an independent Tibet and East Turkestan Islamic...

  9. Challenge: Franco-Germany

    it's called the European union.

  10. Central Powers

    What if China, Afghanistan, and Romania were to have joined the central powers? The Sino-German cooperation had been signed in 1911. Germany had proposed a German-American-Chinese entente in 1907, but it failed due to how obviously stupid it was. Germany also gave a 6 million German Goldmark...

  11. Indian People's Republic

    Sorry, to clarify I meant the land that made up the British Raj (India, Pakistan, Maldives, Sri Lanka, and Burma) remaining unified independent from Britain as a communist state.

  12. Indian People's Republic

    So is there any way that the British Raj could have held together as a single state? Supposedly as a full blown communist nation, although with its own distinct Indian brand of the ideology?

  13. Egypt and the Sudan

    Let's suppose that on January 1st 1956 Sudan's control was ceded entirely to Egypt by the British in exchange for the Sinai and Suez. What sort of butterflies would result from this?

  14. Greek Victory 1922

    Constantinople was only just a little over half Turkish. The rest was Greek, Jewish, and Armenia. Also I point out that the Turks are expelled from the surrounding countries: Greece, Armenia, and Kurdistan. I admit that Wilsonian Armenia is a bit of a stretch, but leaving Armenia alone could be...

  15. Greek Victory 1922

    Stupid me, I meant to write Italy. Whoops.

  16. Greek Victory 1922

    Let's suppose that Italy, wanting to ensure its sphere of influence in southwest Turkey, supports Greece in the 1919-1922 war against Turkey. Greece: Keeps all occupied lands and a little extra on the Black Sea Turkey: Secures its independence for the most part Armenia: Keeps the land it was...

  17. WI/Plausibility Check: Napoleon Unites Italy

    considering he'd be unifying Italy much earlier, Nice and Savoy would still be part of Italy right? So what do you think Napoleon's Italian Empire would go for once he unified the peninsula? - Spain was already starting to fall apart by this time (I think, might need to double check that) so...

  18. No Fascist Italy

    Let's suppose that Italy never becomes Fascist and remains an ally and member of the "Big Four" Nations. Hypothetical changes to the timeline (along with a few of my own): - Spanish Civil War ends with the country splitting in half with Catalan Regions (Catalonia, Aragon, Veracruz, and...

  19. WI/Plausibility Check: Napoleon Unites Italy

    Well I suppose he could garner support from a non-Catholic ally with a general dislike of France, Spain, and/or Austria. I'd think Prussia, Britain, Turkey, or Russia.

  20. WI/Plausibility Check: Napoleon Unites Italy

    Considering Napoleon's charisma, he could probably garner supporters as his army marched through the Peninsula. Assuming Genoa never loses Corsica: -He could move north and take Milan along with the rest of continental Sardinia. Assuming he leaves the place structurally and bureaucratically...
