  1. Affiliated States of Boreoamerica thread

    Hey man, I'm glad someone else around here is specifically interested in the ME and North Africa. I asked Ben awhile back if I could plot out the Russian takeover of Constantinople. There is no way I can see Constantinople being taken without the Ottomans completely falling apart into...
  2. Affiliated States of Boreoamerica thread

    Thank you. I have since we've all last spoke realized I made a mistake. There's a town named Tabarka on the mainland and an island named Tabarka. The latter didn't get conquered by the Ottomans fair and square. During the 1700's after 200 years of being there, the Genoese actually destroyed the...
  3. Affiliated States of Boreoamerica thread

    It might be easier to start off with Genoa's island colony off the Tunisian coast (Tabarka and maybe Djerba if I recall correctly) or even the Knights of Maltas' possessions nearby (Tripoli definitely, maybe Djerba). Castilla held onto bits of Libya and Algeria on and off in the 1500's as well...
  4. Affiliated States of Boreoamerica thread

    I was talking to Ben about sketching out the religious situation in Alyaska and Oregon and he liked the idea of me doing that, but I was wondering if before I could start that if I could sketch out the history of Nueva Esmirna in Florida and talk about Greek immigration to Florida and the...
  5. Affiliated States of Boreoamerica thread

    What about Puritans moving to the Netherlands and staying for good? I vaguely sketched something out for Ill Bethisad, which @False Dmitri and I were (are?) both part of, and it seemed like if the stadtholder had just given the refugees farmland instead of dumping them off in Leiden, I think a...
  6. URHAFAH: Universal Historical Atlas For AlternateHistorians

    That's a start but it's not entirely the full picture because there are plenty of Pontians not in the Thessaloniki prefecture that still keep the identity alive, and there are plenty of Greeks within that have no such identity and are barely aware that perhaps all 8 of their great-grandparents...
  7. URHAFAH: Universal Historical Atlas For AlternateHistorians

    I don't understand what's going on in Greece and Cyprus. I wouldn't agree that Cypriot Greeks get their own yellowish color completely different from the Republic of Greece while Cypriot Turks get the same muted terracotta as the Anatolian mainland. The idea that non-Turkish Cypriots are their...
  8. Q-Bam Historical Map Thread

    This is excellent work. For the life of me, I can't figure out why in 1847-1848 Mexico reverted to Spain's map color of goldenrod. It couldn't've been because Spain reannexed Mexico that year, that much I'm sure of. What does the brief color change signify?
  9. Religious map

    Fair enough. Your work here is outstanding, so I personally am grateful for what we already have here. Before you go, though, do you have the full resolution of the map you created? The one on the previous page is shrunk down and much harder to see than the real map would be.
  10. Religious map

    So has anyone worked on China in awhile?
  11. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    Did you ever end up making this by any chance?
  12. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    Has anyone ever successfully made a Q-Bam for the proposals of the Treaty of Sèvres? There's a 1919 Q-Bam out there, but I don't find it to be accurate at all. I've tried drawing everything by hand but it's proving to be too difficult and I don't trust just eyeballing it.
  13. The Q-BAM Improvement and Core Thread

    Has anyone ever successfully drawn the proposed borders of the Treaty of Sèvres? The historical thread has a map of 1919 but the borders in Anatolia just aren't quite right. I've been trying to hand drawn them on my own but I'm not satisfied with how my results have turned out so far.
  14. AHC: Make Christianity the State Religion for the US

    Because there's no way to actually follow through with this idea, that's why. It's not fun when someone smashes down another person's idea, but sometimes there's just no way around the fact that not all ideas can be worked with.
  15. Jesuit Church

    The founder, Ignatius of Loyola, was accused of being a member of a sect called 'Los Alumbrados,' the "illumined ones". Perhaps you could look into Ignatius actually being a member of said sect, and his order is allowed to survive but eventually advocates such heretical ideas that it has to be...
  16. A lion rises over the Balkans: The Third Bulgarian State

    Powerful stuff right here.
  17. AHC: A homeland for the Roma.

    My good friend is working on such a premise now, coincidentally. I think it's worth a read (although perhaps I'm just a bit biased). https://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=354184
  18. A lion rises over the Balkans: The Third Bulgarian State

    Well I guess I'd be studying abroad in Bulgaria right now, then. Good stuff you have here. I particularly liked the story about the Ottoman soldier & his girlfriend. I just hope that the Great Fire of 1917 in Thessaloniki never happens so that the city can maintain more of its original character.
  19. 东方红 (The East is Red)

    Then why do you allow TL's that have the violent deaths of Mohammad or stillbirth of Jesus, or stories where Jesus is a violent revolutionary figure where it could be implied he kills women and children? I'd say people reverse Jesus Christ (such as myself) & Mohammad just a bit more than Rosa...
  20. Renovation: An Eastern Roman Timeline

    This is straight from Soverihn's mouth, not mine. "The easiest bit of expansion would probably be Athens interestingly enough due to what Aragon is dealing with. Not only due they have to deal with the Marinids, (who here have won the Battle of Rio Salado and thus a good chunk of the fleet)...
