    WI: Italy vs USA 1891

    The U.S.A military had a total manpower of only 37,868 with 26,463 in the army, 9,247 in the navy and 2,158 in the marines. The details are dodgy on Italy in this period, but judging by the research I have done they *could* amass a land force of over 15,000 by the time of the First Ethiopian...

    Lost technologies that could have been useful

    Starlite (It was allegedly subjected to a laser that was almost twice the temperature of the sun's surface at 10,000 Celsius or 18,032 degrees Fahrenheit) Sloot Digital Coding System (It could take a complete movie [Lets just say a full hour is what they mean] and compress it down to around 8...

    Agrarian USA

    Seeing how industrial the USA is today, is it possible to keep or turn the USA into a agrarian society for more than hundred years? And if so, what could the changes be to the world as a whole (without such a major power, the world would be changed in someway).

    Roman colony in the Horn of Africa

    Perhaps a large group of Christians could take a galley from Berenice and settle somewhere on the Horn to avoid persecution.

    Roman colony in the Horn of Africa

    As we know Rome at it's height in 117 CE was one of the largest empires in the world stretching from Britain to Egypt. It had relations with many of the nations/empires of the Middle East and Africa, one of which being Ethiopia. Merchants traded, but not often so contact was limited. But, what...

    Antitrust or Competition laws are never created/passed in the USA

    My idea is that an extremely pro business executive, legislative and judicial branch appears somewhere early on and slaps antitrust to the side, much like how slavery was proverbially given the boot for two decades before being talked about in the government, and we all know what that led to but...

    Antitrust or Competition laws are never created/passed in the USA

    If you are unaware, Antitrust laws as they are known in the United States are laws put in place to keep competition (As they are also known as) going between companies/corporations and putting restrictions on monopolies or the creation of them. The two most famous cases of monopolies in the USA...

    How long could Madagascar remain independent of foreign rule?

    Could Madagascar have possibly gone down these two different paths as a result of it being left alone? -An isolationist route that could also diverge into a pre WW1 U.S isolationist type of nation or a North Korean type but with the potential of more prosperity than the former. -Play an active...

    How long could Madagascar remain independent of foreign rule?

    This is an assumption, but are you suggesting that Madagascar could have developed virtually independent of outside influence if the French had focused more on continental Africa?

    How long could Madagascar remain independent of foreign rule?

    A thought that has been floating through my mind was how long can Madagascar last without any form of European colonization, this being through any means possible such as it developing a civilization comparable to 18th century Europe (Non existent possibility) to a simple ignorance of the island...

    Please define "safe space".

    PG-13 rating never exists

    He could just make the films more graphic, but that would be more money shoveled out.

    PG-13 rating never exists

    In the early 1980s, there were complaints regarding the level of violence in films like Gremlins and The Temple of Doom, which were labeled as PG. As a result of these complaints, Steven Spielberg suggested to the MPAA that a rating between G and PG be created films similar to or on the level...
