    Was Trans Atlantic Slave Trade inevitable with European Colonization of Americas?

    African Slavery existed in America because of the tropical disease environment of southern US and Caribbean. It wasn't until the 1800s that we began to get a hold of them and thus the need for new slaves decreased. Slavery in any form, time and place is a drag on industrial and social evolution...

    AHC: United States Abolishes Slavery Peacefully Before 1861

    The only way to end slavery early in America would be to industrialize faster and more completely. It would take the systamatic introduction of mechanized farm equipment across the cotton belt, electrification of the home and the infrastructure to support them for the south to accept a peacful...

    DBWI: USS Missouri not sunk in the Gulf

    Plus one of the first things that damage control would have done was evacuate the threatened magazines and flood them. Missouri spends a year in dry-dock afterward and the investigation lasts years. More realistically the Navy gets a good look at the effects of a anti-ship warhead on an...

    August Wind

    Concessions both ways... US gets permanent base at Cabo San Lucas... and liberal transit and water rights in Baja we don't need the rest of it. Mexico gets most favored nation trading partner status and help with infrastructure development. Also liberal terms on development loans and bridge...

    Moremodern army Post Civil War...

    What would it have taken to keep more of the Civil War Army and Naval staff officers around to form a coherent and effective staff so that the army actually could expect to do what Wilson wanted it to do in 1916?

    homosexuality contraceptkon and abortion remain illegal.

    Stagnate electrical developement. The rise of an electric consumer market for home appliances starting in the early twentieth gave women more time to ask for more privileges and freed them up from 16 hour days of drudgery. Without that change women's roles in the home except for the upper most...

    Roosevelt's War

    Would love to see this time line continued. though their would be a lot more money staying in America and a lot less money crossing the Atlantic to England in the form of heiresses. Unless it was for German or Russian nobles...thus the Alt Churchill. I suspect that the US War Plan is for...

    US Has Best Rail Transportation System In The World

    And let it run down and fall to pieces as little or no preventative maintenance was done and a lot of track was lost as it was salvaged to patch the heavy use war industry areas. After the war Ford and other auto manufactures were rolling in cash as the rails were trying to keep what they had...

    US Has Best Rail Transportation System In The World

    No 'saltwater' planes in USAF?

    Not in my opinion. The USAF current desire to get rid of the A-10 is all about freeing up money for the F-35 an unproven and IMO to complex warplane that tries to do to much. Yes the A-10 is not fast and sexy and yes it could be replaced by a newer platform. My My beef with the F-35 is...

    No 'saltwater' planes in USAF?

    Nuts! The wild blue younder crowd wins again. That mentality of high and fast has critically endangered the ground element of the armed forces time and again. The Army should have either kept the close air support mission or gotten congress to dedicate a third of the Airforces airframes to that...

    Could the A-10 in this scenario have been read for the last few years in SEA?

    AHC/WI: H-Block Engines Adopted for Aircraft Use

    A thought... IF the Napier Sabre could have its production problems sorted by 1939 and intro-ed the water cooled and fuel injected variant by that fall what impact would a Westland Whirl Wind engine with this engine have had to allied bomber streams and would the engine be used on the Mosquito...

    AHC/WI: World I Ends in White Peace

    A thought... A possible scenario would be having the Spanish flu on steroids or another similar plague hits Western Europe at Christmas. By the New Year half the armies of both sides can't fully man their positions due to sickness and death's and both sides ask for ceasefire/armistice. A bit...
