  4. Ulster in A British Ireland?

    What it says on the tin. What becomes of Ulster and the Ulster Protestant/Loyalist Community if for whatever reason the Act of Union is never repealed and all of Irelands 32 counties remain within the United Kingdom (with or without home rule)?

  5. Anglo Saxon England Survives.

    And no. This isn't another "WI Harold wins at Hastings" thread. This is because, England in 1066 was not an Anglo Saxon country, but rather an Anglo-Nordic country. So, my question is, if for ever reason the Vikings either never existed or focused on Eastern Europe or something, what would the...

  12. Dystopia 1900 :: A Collaborative Timeline

    Ok, here's the idea. Starting with a POD on January 1st 1900, the goal is to create the most dystopic world possible by January 1st 2000 short of a nuclear apocalypse or an ASB 1984esque world. Essentially, this will be a collaborative 'For All Time' with an earlier POD. OK, now some ground...

  13. DBWI: No First World War. How does this effect the War of Secession?

    What it says on the tin.

  16. WI: Prince Albert Lives Longer

    What it says on the tin. What if Prince Albert, instead of dying at the age of 42 in 1860 had avoided his illness and gone on to live a longer life. How does this effect Queen Victoria and the Victorian Era, British and European Royalty, British Domestic Politics and Society as well as the...

    What it says on the tin... With a POD no earlier than Jan 1st 1945, have Great Britain remain a recognised superpower until today. Bonus points if there is still an entity that can still be called the "British Empire" (although it can be a strong, united Commonwealth if you wish) without...

  18. DBWI: Will Cannabis be Banned?

    Well, with a stream of new laws making it more difficult for smokers like me to smoke in public, the seemingly daily rants against "Big Cannabis" and the Netherlands recent ban, does the board think that cannabis/hemp will be banned in most western countries sooner or later, or is it a question...

  20. Sic Semper Tyrannis Mk 2 :: A Timeline

    Ok, so the old incarnation of my TL basically died on it's arse a while back, mainly because of a combination of lack of time, lack of research and lack of motivation. So, hopefully, after some changes, this version will last. I: Prolouge...
