  1. Independent St Petersburg post Napoleon

    Is there a way to have St Petersburg and surrounding environs independent of Russia post Napoleon (after his final defeat and the Congress of Vienna in 1815)?

  2. Name for the Kingdom of Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica

    I am planning a TL that will feature a Kingdom of Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica.

  8. AHC: Crossover and Collaborations more common

    Somewhat inspired the the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen comic. Your challenge, if you choose to except it to make early creators, writers, playwrites, etc to work on crossover, collaborations and fan sequels together. Preferably the end goal would be making the modern practice of remixing...
  9. Alternate Collaborations

    Hello all. I'm trying to brainstorm a bunch of ideas for a project I'm working on. What I'm looking for is interesting historical collaborations that could have happened. The most prominent example I've seen on this site is what if Darwin (1809 – 1882) met Mendel (1822 – 1884)? Biology could...
