  1. Alexei Romanov as a Tsar?

    My inspiration for this thread was thinking of Waldemar who lived to 56. Alexei could've live as long 15, 30 etc. I agree with you that it is unlikely he survives long enough to be Tsar, with a pretty big possibility of him having a accident before that happens. I'm just curious on what he...
  2. Alexei Romanov as a Tsar?

    Is there any indication of how Alexei, the son of Nicholas II and Alexandra would have acted as Tsar of the Russian Empire? Was he educated in any way towards being a ruler or were any preparations made for this? Lets say for argument sake in the late 20s-early/mid 30s, with WW1 starting and...
  3. Isaac's Empire 2.0

    This is a very big surprise, but yes I would be.
  4. Hell and Fury in the Damned East

    Heard that the Freikorps in the East were fighting a somewhat savage war against the Bolsheviks, hopefully may cool down eventually. Excellent update like always.
  5. Rail usage in the UK

    With the Beeching Cuts and general increase in car/bus usage etc since the 1960s, passenger train has decreased in the UK. I was wondering how to get it so that people use trains as a method of travel, both as absolute numbers and percentage wise by 2019. Two options come to mind: The first one...
  6. Hell and Fury in the Damned East

    I remembered your username from a timeline, which for the life of me I can't remember. What was it? That's fine mate, this timeline deserves it. One thing I like is that you give a short summary of what actually happened and how it changes in this timeline. Gives a good explanation for those of...
  7. Hell and Fury in the Damned East

    This is a interesting timeline in Eastern Europe and I'm enjoying it. What sources are you using?
  8. Miscellaneous <1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    Is there any good sources, preferably online where I can read about Russian plans for Galicia, Eastern Turkey and the Straits after WW1? Mostly what I am interested in the plans administering those territories and any information on what they planned to do with the population that was already...
  9. What was Greece’s best chance to reclaim Constantinople?

    The only great power who would be willing to back Greek conquests in Anatolia would probably be a surviving Tsarist Russia. In this case Greece won't be having Constantinople, with it most likely going to Russia. Britain or France backing Greek gains down the line, 10, 20 years later
  10. What was Greece’s best chance to reclaim Constantinople?

    A quick glance at this article suggests a new war during the negotiations for the Treaty of Lausanne: http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/1493/1/U111287.pdf. From pages 185 onwards, it talks about the Greeks threatening to break off the talks over disputes involving reparations and a border dispute and...
  11. Russian Empire Question

    If the Russian Empire was able to survive until the 1990s at the earliest, how would the demography of the empire look? With Russia itself, I heard 200 million as of the year 2000 and Ukraine and Belarus maybe 60 and 15 million respectively. I'm thinking roughly these borders (minus Kaliningrad)...
  12. Miscellaneous <1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    What is the longest lifespan someone can have if they suffer from Hemophilia, like what Alexis the last heir to the Russian throne has? Realistically if they have no major accidents and if there if medical advances to treat the condition?
  13. The Death Penalty in Britain - A Report.

    I quite like it, with you getting the right tone and it has a very formal feel. I like how you added history which makes it seem very believable and plausible in a British sort of way. A criticism I do have is even though the POD is 50 years beforehand, the exact crimes still happen. For Sean...
  14. PC:Greece retains East Thrace

    From what I can remember, the Ottoman navy was taken by the British as part of the peace treaty or the Armistice of Mudros. So I suppose the Greeks can block the Turkish forces from crossing the Dardanelles. With Istanbul, I can see it either becoming a part of Greece itself or under...
  15. Population spread outside of London

    In the UK London is currently the largest city by a large degree at around 8.5 million with the next biggest city being Birmingham at just over a million people, with the third largest city being Leeds at 750,000 people and 589,000 and 552,000 to Glasgow and Sheffield respectively. How would it...
  16. More sympatehtic Attention to Suicde instead of comdemnation?

    Due to dark thoughts at the momen, how is it possible for more sympathy for people who commit suicede to happen? Perhaps earlier understandin g of how grief and why people commite sui#cide helps instead of commendation?
  17. Executions in California after 1976

    How is it possible that after the death penalty was allowed again after Gregg v Georgia that California has more executions? Since it has over 700 inmates on death row as of writing, could it possibly go into the hundreds? What would the effects of this be? Bonus points if it is able to...
  18. No Haemophilia for Alexei Romanov?

    Alexei Romanov was born with the disease Haemophilia, which stops the body from clotting blood effectively, what if he was born without the disease? For starters, without the disease Rasputin most likely wouldn't come to the attention of his parents and his parents wouldn't be constantly...
  19. Gas Chamber in the United Kingdom

    I read the book Hanging in the Balance by Brian Block and John Hostettler a while ago and in the book while discussing the Homicide Act of 1957, Lord Amulree proposed an amendment replacing hanging with lethal gas, with the response being by the Lord Chancellor that due to uncertainty of lethal...
  20. The House of Palaiologos, Against the Tide: An Eastern Roman Timeline

    I have always enjoyed the characters and their interactions between others in this TL, nice to see you keeping it up. :D
