  1. WI Luis Carrero Blanco isn't assassinated?

    Blanco was Franco's chosen successor, and it has been claimed that his assassination by the ETA struck a mortal blow to the regime's chances of survival, as his successor was far more open to liberalizing the country after Franco. If the assassination had been foiled, was there a chance that the...
  2. U.S. Gives Ho Chi Minh an Audience

  3. How bad Could Fredericksburg be for the Union?

    The Battle of Fredericksburg is already considered one of the most one sided battles of the Civil War and a disastrous defeat for the Union.
