    I was recently playing Assassin's Creed Odyssey and that got me reading up about a topic that i had previously never really looked into - the 2nd Peloponnesian War/Attic War.

    A hundred years ago today, WW1 ended. Are there any PoDs that can stop WW1 from happening? Obviously, no one getting shot in Sarajevo on that fateful day helps, but what changes will truly ensure that WW1 never happens? And then what’ll be the result of such a world?

  4. Alternatives to the Bomb - how to win against Japan?

    Suppose the Allies decide not to drop the Bomb on Hiroshima or Nagasaki. In fact let's say they decide to not drop the bomb on Japan, at all. Was there any alternative way to defeat Japan?

  5. WI france had developed nuclear bombs in the run up to the Second World War

    I am sure everyone here has heard of the Maginot Line.

  8. Potential effects of a non-partitioned Indian Sub-continent

    A very straight forward 'what-if'. The Indian subcontinent does not get partitioned into India and Pakistan, instead it gains independence as a single country sometime after 1900. What are all the possible and serious post 1900 PoDs which can result in the sub-continent not being partitioned...

  10. Colonial troops in the late 19th-early 20th century

    I am aware of the legendary Askaris and the Gurkhas. My question is how commonly were colonial troops used in conflicts over the globe by the various Colonial powers? Could they have been used more commonly? For example, the British Indian army was used in China in the Boxer Rebellion by the...
