  1. An Americas' World?

    Moose? I would think Bison would make for better domestication. Easier to get them into herds to manage them.

  2. Status of Hong Kong With No British Recognition of the PRC

    I had a thread similar to this a while ago here. major point was that HK didn't have its own water source. If it wanted to the PRC could afford to blockade the city indefinitely and it becomes a resource drain on the UK. With a hostile PRC on the border refusing to do business with any one...

  3. Oil discoverd under the Falklands

    What if there is a major oil field right under the Falklands. Mideast level of oil, something on the order of the Ghawar Field. The field was discovered right on the eve of the invasion. The day the company announced the discovery Argentina invaded so it didn't factor in and Argentina's reason...

  4. What would you call a much bigger Dreadnought

    I like Juggernaut. There's also Behemoth, Titan, Gargantuan, and Colossus. For carriers there's Mothership, Hive, Aerie... Thats all I got for now

  5. US Victory in Vietnam

    S Vietnam might have stood a good chance of standing if the US had did what the Soviet did and what we eventually did against them in Afghanistan. Stand back and shovel weapons and supply at them and let the Vietnamese do the fighting. A few advisor's to train the troops but and maybe air...

  6. The effects on and of "Canadian" culture in an Ameriwank Universe

    There a major difference between Canada and the US NOW? there's a more significant difference between the E & W coast than across the border. Unless they're those stubborn Quebecois I doubt you be able to tell the difference between a Canadian and American unless they tell you.

  7. Curse on US presidency broken with Reagan

    Curse of Tippecanoe AKA 20 yr Curse. Long story short, since 1840 every president elected on a year ending in a 0 has died in office until Reagan lived in 1980. Term. Name. Term of death. Cause. Date of Death. 1840 William Henry Harrison First Pneumonia 1841-04-04 1860 Abraham Lincoln...

  8. WI Bush (Senior) doesn't wimp out in Gulf War...

    We don't unless the US's feels its in its best interest to do so. Generally that means there's something valuable there or its of strategic importance. You think the US really gives a crap if one worthless (from the US's POV) African country invades another. We haven't so far. If the US was...

  9. Earliest possible logical time for the AK 47 to apear

    I'm not asking the earliest time an AK could be made. I'm asking at what point would it make sense for the technology of the era to allow someone to invent an AK analog. WW1? Before? What would its effect be.

  10. The Howard Hughes's Sputnik.

    I'm more interested in the political and cultural ramifications. A private individual was the first into space:eek: - not literally but close enough. Even if he did have significant government help the fact that pace was opened up by a private individual would very likely foster a much...

  11. Athiestic America

    Its very interesting and I'd like to see more. The TL you're describing is a bit extreme and and is really straddling the border of ASB but it close enough. I could see the founders being clearer in separation of church and state and a more secularist ideal and create a more secularist society...

  12. South African "one child policy"

    Well the second worked OK in Australia. Just have the POD be earlier and have forced deportation of undesirables and convicts to SA it would contribute to a larger White pop.

  13. WI: Man Never Domesticated Dogs and Cats

    Hey a few thousands years of breeding can make anything cute and lovable.

  14. WI: Man Never Domesticated Dogs and Cats

    Found that. It was pretty dam quick to change them in evolutionary terms. After a few thousand years of domesticating foxes they wouldn't be all that different from dogs. Some strain would be bred for large or small size depending on purpose. Some would have more fur or less for various...

  15. WI: Man Never Domesticated Dogs and Cats

    Ferrets fill pretty much the same role as cats already, they were originally created to hunt rats, they make as good a pet as cats, just not as popular. They become the primary household pets. Now what would fill in for the role of dogs.

  16. A strong WWII pope

    Rome gets occupied?

  17. Napoleon Didn't Invade Russia

    How would events turn out if Napoleon didn't try to fight the weather and lost a large chunk of his army in Russia.

  18. Most ASBish war victory?

    Battle of Myeongnyang. Under Yi Sun Sin 13 Korean ship vs 133 Japanese warships and 200 support ships. Japan lost 31 warship, 92 supports ships, thousans dead. Korea- 2 dead 3 wounded. Hell any battle under Yi is an ASB. I'm pretty sure he's related to an ASB somewhere along the line.

  19. What if: Bull cavalry

    Thing with horses is that both sex can perform the same way. Would cows be able to perform on the same level as bulls? Cows are used to being protected by the bulls and might not be as willing to charge. You would only be able to use half as many animals with bulls.

  20. No one likes a PO'ed america

    This makes sense actually if the Japanese were more vicious they could have denied the whole Hawaii islands to the US for a bit as the bio weapons cleared out. And for not much more cost. The there would be more people killed mostly civilians. But not in the first attack. They US would have to...
