  1. The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    Also, IIRC India didn't obtain independence until a year after the war ended. I suspect that played a role in India not being part of the A4
  2. What is the earliest point in history for a viable space program?

    I’ve been pondering this question. Originally, I was thinking someone like Howard Hughes, an early Elon Musk, was the solution. However, the sheer breadth of what would need to be done makes that scenario unlikely. Then it hit me. Robert Heinlein. Allow me to explain. Robert Heinlein was a...
  3. The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    Algeria and what became of Pied Noirs was discussed in the original thread. This is a link to the original question on the issue and there are several responses that follow it. I know the thumbnail is of another issue, but it should think you to the discussion if interested...
  4. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    Kentucky is a weird situation. A lot of what happened there arose from the regional differences in Kentucky of the time. Central Kentucky (Lexington and the surrounding area) and Western Kentucky were pro-Southern in outlook while East Kentucky, North Kentucky (across the river from Cincinnati)...
  5. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    On the subject of Southern Women. I read an article a while back on the United Daughters of Confederacy and its political influence in the late 19th century. A lot of it went back to a fair number of them had become teachers as they needed work with the collapse of the Southern Economic system...
  6. The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    One Thing I've always wondered about, when the Allies won the war, why didn't redraw the borders of Poland to annex East Prussia?
  7. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    Excellent chapter. One thing I would mention, since Lincoln won all the votes, he will need to make sure that one of his electors vote for someone else as it has been a long tradition in American politics that only Washington will win with an unanimous electoral vote.
  8. The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    IIRC, North Africa fell about to the Allies relatively early in the war. I can't recall the correct date, but I suspect it was in 1941. Operation Torch went off about the same time. IIRC Calbear refers to the Western Allied invasion of North Africa in post #39 of the original thread saying "As...

    Congratulations and welcome to the Bar.
  10. What is the earliest point in history for a viable space program?

    I was wondering and I thought I would ask the forum as I'm sure there are much smarter people than me here. What is the earliest point in history for a viable space program, a program able to get men and equipment into orbit? In OTL, it was the late 1950s, could it have been earlier? I...
  11. Munich Shuffle: 1938-1942

    1983 is looking to be an eventful year
  12. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    Welcome to Kentucky. Google Broad Form Deed and Kentucky. There were attempts to overturn a Constitutional Amendment passed by the voters of Kentucky in 1988, (With a 82% vote in favor) which interfered with strip mining. Then, as back in the 1860s there were arguments made about taking of...
  13. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    No doubt, pretty off the wall. It was pretty strange in OTL, many historians made the statement that Kentucky waited until after the war to join the Confederacy. I've seen some court cases from the Kentucky Courts of the time that came pretty close to arguing that the 13th Amendment was...
  14. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    The Confederate Junta is so crazy that even the Kentuckians so 'No Thank You, We're out' Also, love Kearny's ride. I always felt he got cheated in OTL by fate.
  15. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    I wonder if Lee's family will become some kind of icons to the Junta or the Junta's opponents. Lee is becoming such a idol for the various parties and I can see their influence gaining outsized size.
  16. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    "Rich Man's War and Poor Man's fight." really applies here. This is going to get really ugly really quick.
  17. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    Another fellow who was larger than life. He once held off a pro-slavery mob by firing a cannon at them from his front porch, that's right he had his own cannon. And that wasn't the wildest thing he ever did. Ever you're in Richmond KY, you should visit his home, White Hall, which is open to the...

    I would vote for you if I lived in Tennessee. That's a winning platform in my book.
  19. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    Looking forward to seeing how Brownlow is handling the situation in this Civil War. I seemed to recall that he once stated that if Hell froze over, he would fight the secessionists on the ice. There was a reason he was hated by the ex-Confederates and their spiritual descendants who took over...
  20. The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    Some comments. 1) I recall that at some point Calbear discussed homosexual rights in the post-war world, specifically in the A4 countries. IIRC, AANW Tl's timeline is a tad more progressive than OTL as to them. Calbear said something along the lines of so much of the population serving for so...
