    Pop-culture of the Kaiserreich

    As I'm looking forward to the German Empire rework release in a few weeks, I just love to imagine what Babelsberg would look like in my headcanon modern day German Empire. I'm thinking about retconning KRTL's Rachel Weisz to marry to Thomas Kretschmann (Fegelein from OTL's Downfall), what do you...

    Pop-culture of the Kaiserreich

    German Jewish actress Rachel Weiss as Helena Nowak, a Polish auxiliary nurse tending to wounded Deutsches Heer soldiers in the 1996 movie Sie verteidigten das Vaterland (They defended the Fatherland), which was the second film in German director Joseph Vilsmaier's Kriegsgeschichten (War Stories)...

    Pop-culture of the Kaiserreich

    How do you think OTL Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig would react to seeing her KRTL version of herself working in Babelsberg, and being seen as an Austrian beauty within the German film industry, and being married to some minor German actor who has gone famous in the same timeline? What kind of...

    Pop-culture of the Kaiserreich

    If The Mummy was made in Babelsberg in KRTL... Die Mumie (The Mummy, 1999 German action/adventure blockbuster) - directed by Roland Emmerich, produced and distributed by Universum-Film AG (UFA) A loose modern German remake of the pre-2ACW American classic film from 1932 set in Egypt in the...

    Rachel Weiss (Hungarian: Weisz Ráhel, 7 March 1970 - ), German actress of Hungarian-Austrian Jewish descent, one of the biggest names in Babelsberg and most popular contemporary German actresses and winner of multiple German Film Awards. Born in Vienna in the Archduchy of Austria (as a...

    Se Deus quiser, há-de brilhar! - Uma História do Império Português (Updated 03/18)

    Hello everyone, I know it's been almost a year since my last update for this TL but I can confirm that this TL is not dead. I have been going through some stuff lately between March of 2021 and now (i.e. my father passed away after fighting a battle of illness last April, got a new IT job last...

    Threadmarks: Footnote - Map of the Granadan War, 1502

    Here's a map of the Iberian Peninsula as well as most of Italy during the Granadan war as of 1502. Portuguese forces have overrun at least most of the Moroccan coast following the Battle of Alcácer Quibir in that year while the Castilians are making some progress across the border with Granada...

    Defeat of Bolkiah, a Philippines timeline

    This is pretty much more or less similar to what the Philippines would look like for my Portugal TL except that Magellan serves for Portugal rather than for Spain, Afonso de Albuquerque plays an important role in Portuguese relations with the Majapahit remnant and that the lowland Saludongese...

    Southern Luzon will be part of Castile as well as I am dividing the Philippines on linguistic lines. Northern Luzon up to Rizal province (and mostly Kapampangan speaking TTL rather than Tagalog) with the Pasig river as its boundary will be part of Portugal, and what would be Manila OTL on the...

    I've kind of confused Ferdinand II and Princess Isabella's deaths in 1496 and 1498 as they were close. Princess Isabella gets married to Ferdinand II in 1496, but Ferdinand dies a month later from illness per OTL. Perhaps once Ferdinand II dies, Princess Isabella might hastily marry for a second...

    Se Deus quiser, há-de brilhar! - Uma História do Império Português (Updated 03/18)

    I think both dispersing Valencia's Mudéjar population to other parts of Aragon and forced conversions would be better in this case, as King Enrique would want to avoid expelling them from Aragon altogether as they are an important economic asset. Enrique also has to deal with the French in...

    Although Aragon will definitely crush the Mudéjar revolt in Valencia, considering that Juana of Castile and Enrique of Aragon are more pragmatic and competent than OTL's Isabella and Ferdinand when it comes to the Jews and the existing Muslim minorities in their respective kingdoms, I do rule...

    As I am aiming for a weaker Protestant reformation for this TL, the entire British Isles (Scotland and Ireland as you've mentioned) will remain Catholic but will unite peacefully under English rule. The Reformation would be more of a regional European phenomenon, with Lutheranism being a...

    Perhaps Bohemia could be given to the Habsburgs somewhere later in the late 17th century or TTL's counterpart of the partitions of Poland as I am having the Jagiellonians to last up to the modern day if that would be the case as I still have intentions of preventing the PLHC from becoming way...

    Maybe an Lutheran counterpart to "Austria" would be better suited off as a union between Brandenburg and Pomerania with most of Silesia, Saxony or both since Prussia would just be reduced to a mere Polish voivodeship per Zygmunt Stary's suggestion. And maybe an independent duchy somewhere in the...

    I just want to say obrigado and thank you to my viewers of this timeline. Writing more would not be possible without the support of you all, and I am dedicated to doing this since I have found a new hobby, which is this creative writing gig I am doing on the side. COVID-19 is also a mess...

    Threadmarks: Update on the TL's status

    As much as I am dedicated to developing this timeline, I had a lot of personal/mental problems over the past few months (i.e. last semester's college courses, being laid off from my previous job and looking for a new one, family-related issues, etc...), but so far I am currently recovering from...

    I'm still very committed to writing this TL as usual as I am very busy lately, especially now that I am taking college courses again this fall semester; and the classes are more difficult than usual now that I have many years' worth of college credits eligible for transferring to a 4-year...
