  4. Religious and cultural impacts of Mongol syria/levant

    Battle of ain jalut is often framed as mongol chance to conquer egypt, from discussions i have seen this seems unrealistic, most people say that the mongols were stretched at this point and probably wouldnt be able to or try and take the whole of mamluk egypt My question is lets say ain jalut...

  6. Alternate national identities in the turkic speaking world

    Was inspired by threads recently about what different national identities are possible in continental europe. No regions have more potential for different modern national identities than the turkic speaking world of central asia, turkey and the caucasus where nationalism was much more a 20th...

  7. British equivalent to the banlieue

    Maybe I’ve based my question too much on personal experience as I’ve lived in England and known many people/visited France and seen that there are significant ghettoised areas for recent immigrants in french cities like the Banlieu of Paris or quartier nord of Paris. To give an example I...

  8. Alternate Jewish diaspora homeland?

    Just reading the book Yiddish civilisation today and about the heym or homeland of Eastern European Yiddish speaking Jews, it makes the argument that attention should be paid to the history of the Yiddish homeland that does not focus entirely on its destruction in the 20th century and it should...

  9. The eastern bloc without the holocaust

    Since the holocaust and exodus of jews to America, Israel and other locations, the yiddish speaking ashkenazi population of eastern europe has reduced massively since 1939. I was wondering lets say the nazi regime still ghettoises and imprisons the jewish population of its occupied territories...

  10. Larger Creole culture in American South post Louisiana purchase.

  14. AHC:England/britain under a hapsburg style universal monarchy

    Looking at the history of england/britain and castille/spain recently it struck me how their medieval pre reformation history can be seen as very similar.

  15. Social and demographic effects of British Hawaii

    The most common response I see in “no American Hawaii ” threads is that the British would have taken it.

  20. How sustainable was nazi inter service rivalry after victory?

    From what I've read Hitlers encouragement of the Waffen SS, Wehrmacht and even Luftwaffe to compete for resources and power was very inefficient during the war. After the war however i haven't seen discussion on this website about how sustainable this conflict was. Let's say the Germans make...
