    Kings and Popes, Councils and Communes – Different High Middle Ages Year By Year, Starting in 1066
    Threadmarks: 1066

    Kings and Popes, Councils and Communes – Different High Middle Ages Year By Year, Starting in 1066 I have decided to move beyond my comfort zone – not just writing about revolutions, real or otherwise, or about pre-historical cultures of which we know next to nothing – and try my hand at a High...

    AHC: Maximum wank of Medieval Communalism and WI: How would that affect post-Medieval times?

    From the late 11th to the 14th century was the heyday of the communalist movement in Medieval Central Europe. IOTL, it flourished most impressively in the HRE - in what would become Switzerland, Northern Italy, and in the form of the Hanseatic League. But it made inroads all across France and...

    175th Anniversary of the Great Revolutions - A short 1848 TL with a German focus

    Hi everyone, when I had to cease writing my last TL, Feeble Constitution, I was certain that I would never again write another TL. It had been my fourth TL, and great fun, too, but it was just so much work, and I was sure I would never be able to again find sufficient time for writing without...

    WI: Tsar Alexander II. killed in 1866?

    What if the Russian Tsar Alexander II. had been killed in the assassination attempt of 1866? His agrarian reforms / emancipation of the peasantry should have been entrenched enough by then not to be reversed...? What about Alex2's military reforms? Would Alexander III., ascending to the throne...

    Development of Ottoman Empire without Crimean War

    How would the Ottoman Empire have developed, had it not been involved in the Crimean War? The war was eventually "won", but it left the Ottoman Empire extremely indebted to foreign / Western governments, and it had to absorb over a hundred thousand Crimean Tatar refugees.

    No Nazi Takeover in Germany 1933 - Which other dictatorships are averted, too?

    A wave of coups and self-coups, sometimes succeeding very smoothly, in a few cases (like France in 1934) failing, in others (Austria and Spain) leading to shorter or longer civil wars, washed over Europe in the 1930s. In many places, they resulted in the installation of dictatorships, very often...

    WI: No Norman England, no centralised French Kingdom

    There have been threads on similar questions on here before (from 2012 through 2019, if I've been able to use the search option properly), but discussions there often stopped fast, while longer ones shifted their focus back to the British Isles, while "No Norman Conquest" threads of course focus...

    WI: No Forty-Eighters?

    What would the effects of an absence of OTL's influx of refugees from European countries like Italy, Germany, Poland, Hungary etc. after the failed revolutions of 1848 mean for the USA? (Assume, for example, that 1848 is more successful.) There would, of course, still be migration from Europe...

    WI: Prussian Civil War in 1848; Austria busy in Italy. Interventions and positions of foreign powers?

    Assume that the 1848 Revolution escalates in Prussia. Don't bother too much with the details of this prerequisite - assume many people have died, FW IV - who sure was no firebreather - has fled Berlin and ponders abdication. A republican government forms, possibly in the Rheinprovinz, and in...

    AHC: Regions South of the Weser "Celtic" instead of "Germanic" in Roman times

    IOTL, Elbe-Germanic groups moved Southwards from the 6th, 5th or 4th century onwards, and a number of regions previously within the cultural sphere we linguistically call "Celtic" (or archeologically "Latene") were associated mostly with Germanic-speaking inhabitants in Roman times: the...

    WI: British Middle Eastern Policy under Bonar Law?

    What if, in Winter 1918/19, i.e. after the Armistice of Compiegne and the UK General elections, but before the Paris Peace Conference convenes, David Lloyd George dies and Bonar Law succeeds him as Prime Minister... Specifically, I am interested in how British foreign policy regarding the Middle...

    Alternate names for member states of a non-Bolshevik federal Russian state 1917ff.?

    Let us assume, for the moment, that the October Revolution is averted and Russia becomes a sort of federal republic, where various previously "caged" nations (Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Ukraine, possibly Belarus, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, one or more Kazakh and Tatar entities in Central Asia...

    Feeble Constitution - A Red-and-Green Russia 1917 Timeline
    Threadmarks: One: Lvov Resigns (April 1917)

    Hello everyone, this is my first timeline in the After 1900 section, and I'm still somewhat insecure about it all. I have a lot of ideas for this timeline, but this is part of history where, even though I have spent the last months reading up, others are way more knowledgeable than me, and...

    Effects on Latin Am., S. Asia, China & Japan if in 1917 Russia turns Populist instead of Communist?

    Imagine Russia coming out of 1917's revolution with a Populist regime instead of a Communist one. Not necessarily a shining example of democracy, but also no comparison to either Tsarist autocracy or Bolshevik terror and Stalinism? Some non-negotiable characteristics: while the Great War goes...

    Russian Revolution WI: April 20th (May 3rd) 1917: Provisional Government collectively resigns.

    As it says on the tin: On May 3rd (old calendar: April 20th), the Contact Comission between Prince Lvov's Provisional Government and the Ispolkom meets. The Ispolkom demands, once again, the unambiguous clarification of the Provisional Government that they pursue a peace "without annexations or...

    Minimal Divergence / Threshold for No Red Scares

    The challenge is to propose the PoD - after November 7th, 1917 - which prevents any Red Scare from happening while causing the least divergence from OTL's 20th century otherwise. How much, or how little, do either the Bolsheviks / Communists or the US administration and public have to change to...

    WI Constituant Assembly in spring 1917

    Given all the divisions between Social Revolutionaries, Mensheviks and cadets as well as the impracticality of the dual rule, I really wonder why the left in the provisional government didn't just sideline the cadets by leaning more on the soviets and calling in an earlier constituant assembly...

    Discussing a Sketch: Weimar coup in a different 1931

    Hello everyone, I've been thinking a lot about a possible sequence of events in the late Weimar Republic after I've read, a few weeks ago, @Faeelin's old and magnificent timeline Holding Out for a Hero - Gustav Stresemann Survives. I like the idea of Stresemann's lethal stroke not happening in...

    good Weimar survival TLs?

    Hey everyone, I wonder if there are any developed and decently written TLs in which the Weimar republic survives through the 1930s and 1940s? Thanks a lot in advance!
