    AH PC: Communist Argentina by the 1940s

    I actually read about this idea on Reddit this morning and it got me thinking through the day, but I’m not sure how to make it plausible (hence the plausibility check). In any case, I’d thought I’d share it here, since this forum would generate a far better discussion. While the idea is...

    WI: A sexually promiscuous judaism

    Inspired by this https://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=348023 I understand most of the Middle East was rather sexually liberated during the Bronze Age: Fertility goddess/festivals which included orgies and the like, but I'm by no means an expert. Now, WI if there is...

    To the Moon on atomic power

    Nuclear thermal rockets were considered for the upper stage of the lunar landings but, ultimately, weren't used. I'm not sure which POD is required as I'm not that knowledgeable of space technology. Earlier development? A political or technical decision? The Soviets use them first? So, being...

    AHC: The Innuitian-Inca Railroad Company

    Ahnah dropped her coat in the train cabin and threw herself in the bed-chair. She had a long trip ahead of her and hoped she could catch up with her studies for the Nunatukavut University. However, she didn't fool herself. If she remained alone in the cabin, by the time she'd arrived to Cuzco...

    AHC: Germany and Russia/USSR as long standing allies

    Ok, I put it as an AHC because I don't have any ideas about good PODs. The general idea is to get Germany and Russia, or the USSR if Russia goes communist, to have an alliance not unlike the OTL Anglo-French relationship. No date restriction in the POD, it can be before WWI, it can be in the...

    Red Army reaching Denmark?

    WI the USSR manages to reaching Denmark and, say, the areas surrounding Hamburg and Wilhelmshaven in Germany and keeping them in their sphere of influence after WWII? How far would the Western Allies go to prevent a Red Denmark? I guess we would need PODs both allowing faster and better Soviet's...

    WI music companies have taken a smart approach to P2P?

    In my very small knowledge of marketing, the actions taken by the major media groups against piracy, p2p, etc are a study case of what not to do when technological advances change a market. And the knowledge about what to do about it has been availiable as basic marketing knowledge for decades...

    WI (German's) Enigma is broken a few years later

    While working in breaking the German codes in the 1930's, the Polish Cipher Bureau received help from Hans-Thilo Schmidt, an employee at the German Cipher Bureau who spied for the French military inteligence and gave them the instructions on how to use the German enigma machines. WI that guy's...

    Challenge: Germany sucessfully test a nuclear bomb in the 1940s

    Your challenge, should you decide to take it, is to devise an scenario where Germany test a nuclear bomb of her own design no later than December 31st, 1949 with POD(s) no earlier than January 1st, 1901. Bonus points if at least two European countries are comunist at the time of the test...

    Challenge: NATO attacks WP

    Since most threads about WWIII begin with the USSR attacking Nato let's try this: With a POD other than the Cuban Missile Crisis and some small border clash, have (perhaps only some) NATO leaders force an all out attack against WP forces in Eastern Europe

    Shorter Argentinean civil war

    Argentina went through a long, intermittent civil war for over 40 years witch started in the late 1810s, even before the Independence War was over. In OTL the definitive unification of the country happened in 1862, more than half a century after the Independence War begun. The main causes of the...

    Battle of Britain with the FW190

    Based on this thread https://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=77689 The FW190 was already a prototype in 1939, and in small production already in 1940, although it took up to 1942 before the Luftwaffe actually deployed it in large numbers. So what about if the process speeds...

    WI the north african ports had larger capacity in the 1940s

    That. What would happen if, for some reason witch I don't know, all the ports of Libia and Egypt had about twice or three times the capacity they had in 1940? It would surely help the Axis, but shouldn't it help UK as well?

    WI Czechoslovakia forces Germany to war in 1938

    WI Czechoslovakia stands against Nazi Germany in 1938 and decides to resist an armed invasion, even if that means doing so in their own. Will France and the UK declare war on Germany? If they don't, wouldn't they turn their backs in Polland as well, thus avoiding the western front in WW2? If...
