  1. Explain the AH Quote

    The opening line to President Nelson Rockefeller’s famous Pyongyang adress where he reaffirmed the United States and the Republic of China’s commitment to defend North Korea against South Korean or Japanese agesssion. “If Ireland falls so must America”
  2. AH Title and Description Game

    Playboy is prosecuted for obscenity shortly after its founding in the 50's. The case is won by Hefner and it is ruled that all forms of pornography is constitutionally protected. The title refers as much to the ensuing political and social backlash as it does to the court case. Said case leads...
  3. AH Title and Description Game

    A timeline where Dai Viet remains stable in the 1800's and industrializes. The British attack in the 1860's attempting to expand north from Malaya but eventually withdraw after being very badly bloodied. This is repeated by the French in the 1890's expanding from Cambodia, the Americans in the...
  4. A Barrel of Gunpowder, and a Spark

    Firstly YAY AN UPDATE. Secondly where did you get that map from. Thirdly did the Constitutional union just win louisiana :eek:? Where did that come from. But on to other things. So is Seward going to be internationalist and try to dodge the slavery question because that's what its looking like...
  5. Alternate Sites of Industry and the Resources Required

    No it dosnt but i think Borneo does. if population is an issue could a more powerful Brunei pull it off. Brunei city is big and if it expands along the north coast by annexing Sarawak it has additional population and the resources it needs. Is it still to small to do it properly though
  6. AH Title and Description Game

    What if Eisenhower had run in 1948. A story of an earlier and more progressive civil rights movement that will eventually lead to true democray in the United States, a collapse of the soviet union in a power struggle following Stalin's death and a United Sates in the position of unchallenged...
  7. Alternate Sites of Industry and the Resources Required

    Ok just as a random idea. Could an organized Musilim Kingdom in Mindanao industrialise. They island has coal iron and water power plus if a ruler wanted to knocking over pre Spanish Luzon for a agricultural base wouldn't be to difficult. The main difficulty i can see is timing. This all has to...
  8. AHC: Scandinavia Wank

    Ok, I'll take a stab at it. (WARNING, i'm not sure how logical a lot of this is seeing as this period is not my area of expertise but here goes.). Gustavous Adolphus survives Lutzen. He manages to convince France that the Hapsburg are getting way to powerful and thus he needs Frances support...
  9. A Barrel of Gunpowder, and a Spark

    Interesting set up. The only problem i have with it is that Seward isn't nessceralliy going to help matters. He's seen as at least as radical as Lincoln if not more so by the Southern states. Unless that's the point of course. I'm interested about this global war thing. but i suppose i will find...
  10. 1926 United Kingdom general strike much worst

    I think it could of gone VERY badly had the government got skittish and tried to suppress i through force of arms. People tend not to like that and if deone poorly which it almost always is tends to just strengthen the resolve of the strikers. Thats the only way something that really should of...
  11. A Barrage of Fear and Greed or The Uninterrupted Presidency of James A. Garfield

    I have been looking for a timeline like this fro ages. So the US is more expansionist and interventionist in south and central america. Sucks to be them. Keep going though
  12. Nazis stopped in 1939: is Germany viable?

    Sure but Russia's going to take that as a sign of weekness. In 41 they had roughly equivalent forces, Germany having more tanks and planes but Russia having a seemingly bottomless well of manpower. However a MINIMUM two year freeze on aramamenrs spending, that puts the soviets in an excellent...
  13. Nazis stopped in 1939: is Germany viable?

    The guy above mes right the economy id teetering on the edge. Also large parts of Germanies growth in the period was off the back of preparing for war. When the bottom falls out and spending gets slashed the economy suffers worse. Now you want Hermany to improve relations and it can do that with...
  14. A Glorious Union or America: the New Sparta

    You being the writer and having clearly superior knowledge I acquiesce :o with only one last word. While per shot they did not foul any faster due to the high rate of fire they had issues. Other than that thanks for clearing up my issues. To repeat this is a great time line that supersedes such...
  15. A Glorious Union or America: the New Sparta

    Yeah sure you don't need smokeless powder for a repeater but not having them leads to three main things. 1 as has been stated pre Napoleonic levels if smoke on the battle field obscuring any attempts to use them in mass combat. 2. Massive barrel fouling due to the high rate of fire. This turns...
  16. A More Perfect Union

    To clarify my question. The federalists had one major issue. They thought power should be in the hands of the rich elites and thus supported stuff like keeping the property requirement. This kind of elitism is a major problem when trying to get people to vote for you. IRL the part was smashed by...
  17. A More Perfect Union

    Cool. This TL looks good. How are you going to solve the basic problem of the fedralists being unlike able elitists. Or is Jackson going to kill them as usual
  18. A credible military for the Philippines

    Sure Marcos was terrible for the country but I've heard of attempts under even macsaysay to crack down on Muslim rebels though I haven't read that extensively. Also a Philippines economic miricsle is possible. It has everything going for it. Low wages English speakers a great port for shipping...
  19. A credible military for the Philippines

    Eh to me a credible Philippine military relies onvthem taking a damn bitter pill and properly aligning themselves with the us post independence. If the us crushes the commies then you free up troops to fight the Morros. This combined with standard US Cold War military and more importantly...
  20. A Glorious Union or America: the New Sparta

    Also with the Confederacy being smashed from all sides what appear to be upcoming crushing Union offensives, hows Jeff Davis of even the VP's (drawing a blank on the name) being overthrown
