  1. 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...
  2. Latest realistic POD for a Mexican Central America?

    Spanning from the Rio Grande to the border with Panama, is it possible to have Mexico take most of Central America after, say 1880? (excluding Belize) Bonus: This may be a stretch but is it remotely possible with a POD in the 20th century? Obviously, Central American countries are quite...
  3. Pre-WWI Belgian Breakup

    Is there any chance of Belgium breaking up into Wallonia and Flanders at any time following the end of the Franco-Prussian War, yet before WWI? Would it be possible for France to get Wallonia and the Dutch to get Flanders, or are the Germans/British going to get too pissed off? Also, is the...
  4. AHC: Royals continue to marry royals

    What would it take to ensure that the tradition of royals marrying royals from foreign royal houses continues to this day? For example, instead of Prince Harry marrying Meghan Markle, he becomes engaged to a Princess of Spain or the Netherlands or Sweden, etc. This type of marriage seemed to...
  5. Is a Franco-British-German alliance plausible?

    Say that WW1 never happens and we get to the late 1920s with no conflicts in Europe. However in this time the USSR begins to expand and Western Europe begins to get a little scared. Also assume that with no WW1 the US stays isolationist and basically keeps to themselves on their side of the...
  6. AHC: Australian New Caledonia

    What is the easiest/latest POD for the OTL French territory of New Caledonia to become a part of Australia, with New Caledonia still having a distinct French population, however try avoid a war between France and Britain/Australia. Perhaps it could be seen as Australia's Quebec. Would a late...
  7. Increasing 19th century Maori population

    What would be the best way to dramatically increase the Maori population in New Zealand pre-1840? I'm thinking earlier adoption of European agricultural methods/crops but even still, Maori were pretty quick to adopt them. However the biggest problem is disease which the Maori had little immunity...
  8. Mexican Population Density 19th century

    Not 100% sure if this is the right forum to post this in but, does anyone have any sources/know any specifics on the population densities of different Mexican states (especially northern ones) around the time of the Mexican-American War. I am trying to write a TL where the Republic of the Rio...
  9. AHC: 3 State Solution

    Ok this is possibly ASB but who knows there might have been a way it could happen. So, would it have been possible for there to have been a three-state "solution" each with different religious groups. Christians in the north (including Lebanon with Northern Israel), Jews in the middle (the...
  10. Different WWI Ending POD?

    So I'm trying to write my first proper timeline and I'm stuck around when the POD should be. It's going to be around WWI and post WWI Europe and there are some things I want to be specific. - US neutrality during WWI, financial support allowed though - A truce on the Eastern Front similar to OTL...
  11. Best POD for a united New Guinea?

    New Guinea is the big island above Australia which is split between Papua New Guinea in the east and Indonesia in the west. It's quite strange that native Papuans own one half of the island and "foreign" Indonesians own the other half, you'd think it would either be Indonesians owning all of it...
  12. How do I keep France out of the ARW?

    How do I keep France out of the American Revolutionary War? I know the French were keen to get back at Britain after their North American empire was lost not long beforehand, but I'm doing a timeline where the United States breaks apart not long after it was formed (the American Revolution only...
  13. Name for Mozambique and Angola?

    In a timeline where Portugal succeeds in their Pink Map scheme without going to war with Britain... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Map What would the colony and later country be called that is established upon merging Angola and Mozambique plus the land in the middle (OTL Zimbabwe...
  14. WI No Cecil Rhodes? + French Algeria Split?

    What if, for whatever reason, Cecil Rhodes never becomes an important or significant figure in South African/British African history. With no Cecil Rhodes, will Britain still end up controlling so much of South and East Africa like in OTL and have the Cape to Cairo ambition or will the...
  15. AHC: Stop the spread of European Republicanism

    How could European republicanism that spread throughout Europe after the American Revolution up to the 20th century be stopped? Countries that were traditionally republics like Switzerland do not have to be changed to monarchies, but how do we stop France, Russia, Germany, Eastern Europe, Italy...
  16. Imperial Commonwealth during WWI

    With a POD late 1800s early 1900s pre-1914, that turns the British Empire into an "Imperial (con)Federation," with The "white dominions" being broken down and made into countries that are similar to how the UK is made up today. eg. England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, each province of Canada, each...
  17. Alternate Names for A-H

    I'm currently doing a timeline which has a POD in the 1860s and one of the effects is that WWI as we know it is butterflied away, it pretty much leads to a more monarchist Europe, with monarchs on the thrones of Britain, France, Scandinavia, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Germany, Austria-Hungary...
  18. Austro-Prussian Germany

    How could you get Austria included in the Germany Empire upon the German unification (doesn't necessarily HAVE to be at the same time that Germany unifies, could be after)? The main problems I can think of is the Habsburg-Hohenzollern rivalry and the recent Austro-Prussian War. The POD can be...
  19. AHC: Colonisation of New Guinea

    The challenge is to give the island of New Guinea (north of Australia) a white/non-native majority. Ive just started wondering why European colonisation of Australia and New Zealand was successful in establishing European-majority countries but a relatively similar island in the same area was...
  20. Reunited Iberian Union

    Im currently putting together a timeline where im hoping to have Spain and Portugal united in a federal constitutional monarchy. Is there any chance of this happening anytime after the 1860s which is when my POD is. Im hoping to have a nation called the Kingdom of Iberia so I was thinking that...
