challenge

Since another 'give Korea more territory' thread popped up in the 'AH before 1900' sub-forum recently and I've been thinking about this a little bit lately: Challenge:: (With any post-1900 PoD such as is a given due to this thread's sub-forum placement — I suspect that a PoD during China's...

There are generally three definitions of the buzzword ASB used on this site - Scenarios that require magic and time travel ex. Guns of the South - Scenarios that are possible but unlikely ex. Axis Victory - Scenarios that are perfectly possible but at one point they became so popular on this...

Central Asia in the early modern period has always been kind of a footnote in history. It was divided between the Golden Horde and the Chagatai Khanate at first. The last notable empire to span from the region was the Timurids, the last Great Turko-Mongol Dynasty, but that eventually collapsed...

A small challenge for y’all but also a definitely-not-big question for a commie like me, what if Stalin was an extremely wholesome sane man? Heck, forget it, what if Stalin not only lived over 100 years, but also guide the USSR to become a literal beast of a nation? One example of this came from...

Come up with a timeline that allows for Britain to speak North Germanic, while also only allowing for either no or very limited settlement from other groups, such as the Saxons, Jutes, etc, ever. The POD can be whenever, as long as other groups (such as the ones listed above) don't have a large...

The House of Osman, or the Ottoman Dynasty is famously known to have ruled the Ottoman Empire. Having a total of 36 Sultans and ruling from 1299 to 1923, the Ottoman Dynasty is one of the most significant dynasties in world history. However, one thing to note is that, at least from I read, the...

During the Napoleonic Wars, Denmark-Norway and Sweden (Who owned Finland at the time.) changed greatly after the war. On one side, Denmark-Norway initially tried to stay neutral, but later sided with the French after Britain blew up their fleet, twice in 1801 and then 1807. In the end, Denmark...

First thread! I've searched a bit on here for alternate Franco Prussian timelines, but none of them involve a POD after the Battle of Sedan on September 2, 1870. Can you make the French Republic win this one? Victory is defined as any peace that does not involve loss of land, payment of...

South Asia is a region with over a billion people. It's also a major cultural salad bowl, and this is reflected in the wide variety of languages spoken there. Represented language families include Indo-European, Dravidian, Austroasiatic, Sino-Tibetan, and Andamanese, among others. However...

Ok, so here, the basic concept is to create your own company. They could either be completely new, fake, or even merged and different versions of real companies. This is basically a spiritual successor of this thread...

Hello Everyone. how are you today? This challenge came to my mind as I was reading the History of Mamluks(Kölemen State/Ed-Devletüt-Türkiyye) of Egypt. I thought what if Mamluks were not as Arabized or held a disdain of Arabs due to their slave status and once came to power tried to Un-Arabize...

With a POD no earlier than 388 AD, make the Celts/Romano-British push away the Saxons and stay dominant over Britain, later turning into a Celtic-Norse hybrid culture. Also, how do you see a Britain like this developing?

No cheaty methods like TL-191 with the Confederates surviving & allying with the French & British. Only changes have to be in America.

We all know what Vegetarian is. The practice where people doesn't eat meat, and sometimes other animal products, especially for moral, religious, or health reasons, whereas Veganism is the practice of abstaining from using animal products entirely. In the modern age, many people in many nations...

Brazil is unique in South America. Besides being one of largest nations, it is also the only one to speak Portuguese. This is due to the Treaty of Tordesillas, where Spain got most of the New World, and Portugal got Brazil, which eventually expanded over the next three centuries until it's...

Flags. They can vary from simile colors, to elaborate patterns of symbols and images of a nation, like religious icons, people, animals, swords or even guns. Yet, one thing that I can't remember, is the imagery of food on a flag. Sure, there might be small like probably grape vines or olives...
