    Una diferente ‘Plus Ultra’ - the Avís-Trastámara Kings of All Spain and the Indies (Updated 11/7)

    Really interested on the Spanish impact on East Asia in TTL. Even on OTL it was some wild stuff: "A last alliance of Ottoman-backed Moro warriors and Japanese waka pirates trying to fend off the thousand nations of the Spanish Empire" But also one of the things I am most excited about is how...

    And All Nations Shall Gather To It - Volume I: The Abode of Peace

    Interesting. It seems that the Crusading movement will last much longer, and will have a much greater impact on the world. Besides the Iberian Reconquista and the Baltic Crusades, North Africa will also be reclaimed by Christendom, and the Mediterranean will become a Christian lake. The...

    And All Nations Shall Gather To It - Volume I: The Abode of Peace

    Do you think there would be Crusader Nations in the Americas? As in, the Crusading Movement spreading there too? The success of the Crusading Movement is proof that the Christian Nations would accept the existence of adventurers of different nations uniting to bring the Cross to heathen lands...

    And All Nations Shall Gather To It - Volume I: The Abode of Peace

    West Africa may not fall to the Christians, but the coastal regions of the Mediterranean certainly will. Tunis was even taken by the HRE in our timeline, only to end up abandoned because of an Egyptian counterattack and France causing trouble on mainland Europe. With a stronger Crusading...

    Yeah, the Crusaders could end up being the Hammer to the Ethiopian's Anvil.

    So you confused this timeline with another one? Thats alright, it happens. I mean its on you to prove that Charles did not believe in Catholicism and could have become a protestant any time because it would be convenient. From all historical records we have of him he was Catholic not because...

    You are saying that Charles did not believe in Catholicism. That he was Catholic merely for convenience, just like nobles in ASOIAF. And this is absurd and goes against all historical evidence. Protestantism is heresy in his view, why would he convert? He would be risking his eternal soul to the...

    This is ridiculous. Its basically saying that Charles V did not believe in his religion. Newsflash, this isn't ASOIAF. Nobles actually believe in their religion, and seek to promote and spread it out of devotion to all its tenets. Just because one brain-damaged person pulled the heresy card to...

    Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    What woud be the reaction in-universe if in 1936 the Commune of France was suddenly replaced by Avant-Garde France? For those who don't know, Avant-Garde France is from the mod Red Flood, where nobody won WW1, Germany fell to Council Communism, Kolchak took over Russia and France fell to the...

    AHC/WI: Jim Crow in Brazil

    Yes they did. Many Portuguese, Italians and Germans, the last two in larger numbers in the 19th century. South Brazil is overwhelmingly white, and the Southeast is majoritally white as well, with mixed people close behind.

    AHC/WI: Jim Crow in Brazil

    Another interesting thing is how the idea of a "white nation" was seen through different methods in Brazil and the US. The US, through Jim Crown, One-drop rule and general culture sought to separate whites from blacks and the mixed were lumped with them. It was hoped that "pure" whites would...

    Unrealized "natural borders" and their consequences

    Brazil's southern "natural borders" depend if you consider either the River Uruguay or the Paraná-Paraguay Rivers as the natural frontier. If its the former then Brazil would only have to annex Uruguay, with once belonged to it as the Cisplatina province in the times of the United Kingdom of...

    Pop Culture Timelines Go-To Thread

    What would be needed to make animated films and series, cartoons and animes, the "mature", "adult" and "popular" entertainment, while live-action is relegated to children's TV and obscurity?
