  1. Australianer, Canadianer, Americaner identities?

    In New Zealand, a large portion of the NZ European population also identifies as Pākehā - the Māori name for white NZers. Although among some groups, mostly older European NZers, the term Pākehā is kind of controversial. Perhaps if European migration to NZ post-1840 was more limited for some...

  2. AHC: federalism with 4 or more levels of government

    A united/federal British empire could have this: British federal government, National/country-level government, State/provincial government, Local government

  3. Hail, Britannia

    Biden would be a bit conservative for the SDP, no?

  4. AHC - Have another successful British Settler colony

    I’ve always thought that New Guinea is a severely underused island in alternate history, perhaps a settler colony could be set up there and join Australia in 1901, although it might be a bit tropical and the natives might be a bit hostile for the British

  5. Hail, Britannia

    iirc, there was one in Northwestern Australia i think

  6. Of Droughts And Flooding Rains

    That’s a huge British Asian population, even with Hong Kong included. Is immigration into the UK way bigger than OTL? Also, Jon Snow would be proud.

  7. States that don't get balkanized often in Alternate History but could ?

    Australia can be easily balkanised - make the federation fail and have ~6 english-speaking countries on the continent, or have different countries colonise it - (which is admittedly done relatively more often).

  8. AHC: A majority indigenous New Zealand

    Id say a Dutch NZ would probably have fewer Dutch/European settlers but they’d probably import Indonesians or Chinese into the country for labour, which wouldn’t really help the OP’s original question

  9. AHC: A majority indigenous New Zealand

    Perhaps keep the United Tribes of New Zealand as viable long enough for the British to establish a proper protectorate with only limited settlement locations - although this will only work in the North Island as the South had such a tiny Maori population. The other thing to consider is the very...

  10. Our Fair Country: The Commonwealth of New England

    Jeez, I knew South Africa was bad ITTL but I didn’t realise they were North Korea-esque...

  11. AHC: Make YOUR country bigger and otherwise change nothing

    New Zealand keeps Samoa and integrates them as well as the other countries in the Realm of NZ into integral territories of New Zealand.

  12. Our Fair Country: The Commonwealth of New England

    Just noticed an independent Riau Islands, how did they come about to be independent? Are they similar to Singapore being in such a strategic location? Or are they more like Singapore’s backwater brother?

  13. Of Droughts And Flooding Rains

    Wow that's an amazing looking article, what did you use to make it? Looking at the sidebar headlines, British politics in the TL look even more complicated than OTL. I'm loving the timeline as well, its nice to see the focus of a graphics-based timeline centred on Australia!

  14. AHC: Form alternate/new ethnic groups of the world

    Highlanders POD: British crown evicted Scottish Gaels to southern New Zealand during Highland Clearances Language: New Zealand Gaelic, English, Scots Ancestry: Gaels of Scotland, Scottish, English, Irish, Māori Appearance: Celtic, Northern European Religion: mainly Presbyterianism, other...

  15. The Yankee Dominion: A Map and World Building Project

    IIRC, Victoria split off from NSW in OTL so I’d say it realistically could be all called New South Wales, but I’d like to see it get a different name though

  16. AHC: Pre-1900 "Greater Yugoslavia"

    Nice, I like these ideas. Preferably the POD would be in the latter half of the 19th century but I feel like these ideas would create more of a Yugoslav national identity and a real South Slavic nation, rather than an identity and country which is largely constructed and forced together. How...

  17. AHC: Pre-1900 "Greater Yugoslavia"

    The challenge is to come up with a way for a greater Yugoslavia to exist before the end of the 19th century/within the first decade of the 20th century. This Yugoslavia must include Bulgaria as well as most of OTL Yugoslavia, bonus points if Albania is added in. My idea is that Austria-Hungary...

  18. Spain sells African Colonies to America

    They may not be classified as Spanish "colonies" in Africa, but I think the cities of Ceuta or Melilla would be of much greater strategic interest to the Americans - more so than the Spanish Sahara or Equatorial Guinea. Although I cant imagine the Spanish would want to give them up and I doubt...

  19. Our Fair Country: The Commonwealth of New England

    Are there any major territorial claims in Europe that havent already been discussed (Northern Ireland)? For example, does Romania claim Transylvania, does Greece claim Southern Bulgaria (OTL Northern Greece), does Poland claim East Prussia, does Italy claim Istria, etc...

  20. The Articles of Deconfederation: A World Without America

    Well apart from their natural harbours, Dunedin and Wellington are quite shitty places for building cities from scratch - both very hilly with little flat land. Maybe the Dutch are more used to the flatter areas so they steer clear of the hills and go for the flats, perhaps why they've got their...
