    Domesticated human slaves

    You know I usually parse words and hold my tongue when I see stupid malevolence on this forum but for once, screw that; What in the genuine fuck is wrong with you people?

    What are plausible decisions Imperial Japan could have made after Pearl Harbor to improve their performance in the war?

    Ah yes, the old myth that in the Pacific the Sherman got to feel like a Tiger.

    What are plausible decisions Imperial Japan could have made after Pearl Harbor to improve their performance in the war?

    If I might suggest something that someone else only even hinted at and everyone else ignored. Mayperhaps the Japanese figure out that their enemy is listening to every conversation of strategic importance they're having. That would help a lot.

    Byzantium as THE Roman Empire

    Well spoken and informative, thank you.

    Byzantium as THE Roman Empire

    Of course not. Clearer Edit: Presupposing that they are not Muslims scholars themselves.

    Byzantium as THE Roman Empire

    Tis a dubious claim to say that Muslim scholars and lawyers have a better understanding of Papal power and law than those within and under the Papacy does.

    Byzantium as THE Roman Empire

    On paper it was a union of equals between the Pentarchs of Rome, Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem. In practice in the East the Patriarchate of Constantinople was Better, in the West, there was only the Pope while Alexandria's Pope was ignored, and Antioch and Jerusalem even...

    Byzantium as THE Roman Empire

    My second point was that both were/are no less Roman than the other.

    Byzantium as THE Roman Empire

    Orthodoxy v Catholicism is a matter of politics as much as it is dogma. The Pope hated the Patriarch, the Patriarch hated the Pope, they excommunicated one another. Etc. But that's neither here nor there and not the topic of this thread.

    Byzantium as THE Roman Empire

    The lingua franca of the Classical Roman Empire was... Greek. So this disassociation of Rome with Greek is disingenuous. The Pope and the Papal State is based out of Rome, does that not by definition make them Roman? The Roman Empire in the east was the direct successor state to the Roman...

    Countries That Exist, but Easily Could Have Not

    Pretty much all of them, as has been said.

    PC/WI: Get Africa to be made of countries based on ethnic/tribal areas post WW1 or post colonial area.

    If I recall correctly, some time ago someone on here who I can't recall said that Europe wasn't quite as careless as many people accuse them of when drawing their lines on the map of the land they conquered and enslaved and that many of Africa's nations are drawn on ethno-tribal lines.

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

    I apologize for suggesting the north/south, you are quite right it is overdone and lazy.

    Any permanent partition of China requires it not being unified for long stretches of time in its pre-industrial history IMO. The north-south divide being more pronounced etc.

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

    China comes to mind. Albeit, it already is but never mind that. A good deal of Europe's nations that aren't exception given to Italy/Germany; few people comprehend just how enormous Russia is, and while it is 'empty', there's no reason that it couldn't be two to five more states as an example...

    Plainly, many hands make for lighter work.
