  1. How does the American Civil War play out if Texas is independent?

    Here's my scenario that still leads to the ACW and other events: My computer is being weird, but scenario goes Mexico eventually recognizes the smaller area of Texas, but a US and Texas allied war against Mexico happens and the dark green area is recognized as the nation of Texas and the...

  2. Create the Worst Civilization Possible

    Honestly we wouldn't know about them directly, but read tales from ancient sources or find archeological remains and modern humanity would have to judge how badly they are. As a society they would have any number traits that we would see as bad. I imagine they would be a worse case scenario than...

  3. What if Jesus became the Roman emperor?

    That's if Jesus even existed. The mythicist and most likely most realistic view is that the Jesus from the Bible is a composite of different end times preachers or is completely fabricated. I'm comfortable with the latter.

  5. Warcraft: Azeroth population estimation

    I say the Naga have the advantage of hiding their population under the ocean which provides a lot larger territory.

  6. AHC/WI:'White' Central Asia,West and Central China,Parts of East Asia and India

    No or lesser Mongolian invasion, there's no telling how many they killed.

  7. Best Place for a German colony in the new world?

    While Germany had plenty of settlers in the northeast and Texas I think since a lot Germans ended up in Argentina later then that seems like a good place.

  8. AHC: Non-European dominated world

    I can imagine a China coming out of isolationism or a Muslim Empire becoming dominate but it won't be anything like what we have now. I can't imagine a world without Europe moving pass steam engines in technology.

  9. How would civilization develop without horses?

    So, I guess no Alexander the Great, no cavalry charges, no Pony express and possibly no Poseidon or Pegasus.

  10. How would civilization develop without horses?

    It wouldn't civilizations won't develop very far without either draft animals or means of carrying messages quickly. that is why the Mayan, Aztec and Incan civilzations weren't going to develop any further. Luck of the draw.

  11. How would a US with these borders develop differently from OTL?

    Does this mean the south and east of the Mississippi could be the CSA and with the rest being under control of Mexico, Spain or broke off on their own.

  12. Popular misconceptions about pre-modern History

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned that during the Atlantic Slave trade that Africans sold slaves to Europeans and that Europeans didn't go into Africa to get them.

  13. Bright from Netflix

    I thought the movie was pretty good. The plot seemed simple enough and was entertaining. I think too many people were expecting a social commentary or epic movie instead it was cop drama.

  14. AHC: Earliest Possible Supersonic Flight

    30s and early 1940s are very possible. But I don't know how survivable the mission would be.

  15. If the Confederacy somehow did win...what happens next?

    The usual assumption is that in order to be recognized by Britain and France the CSA would have to eventually end slavery. The CSA would still end up poor, but I wonder if other states would break away to form their own governments or try to rejoin America eventually.

  16. WI no modern Olympics

    Wouldn't that be a good thing. Most countries and cities that host the Olympics do poorly economically. I can imagine the Olympics starting, but after being cancelled during a world war they're never restarted.

  17. AHC ruining Star wars episode VII

    Needless expendable droids as cannon fodder. Create a villian that looks cool but definitely kill them at the end. Have the hero accidently take out the main villain's superweapon.

  18. Alternate Star Wars Movies

    What I've seen of the Star Wars: Clone Wars and Star Wars: Rebels cartoons there's plenty of questions left unanswered? Like what happens to Asaj Ventress? How does the Grand Inquistor from Rebels go from a Jedi Temple Guard to joining the Dark Side? Is Darth Maul or Asoka still around? some...

  19. Robert E Lee as U S President

    I don't know if this idea has been posted before, but what if Robert E Lee after the American Civil War became the American President. Ignoring any miraculous Confederate conquest of the North. The other possibilities involve Lee deciding to side with the North after believing they'll win and...

  20. Internet invented and widely used pre 1939?

    Honestly you don't need an internet as we recognize today to be available in order for something like this to work. A more interwoven world where there's more and cheaper ham radios, more telegraphs lines, more ways for individuals to call each other and talk without seeing each other's faces...
