    Louis XVII, The Wild King (Marquis Saves the Dauphin)
    Threadmarks: Chapter 1: The King in a Casket

    June 10, 1794 Once a National Hero of France, The Marquis found himself on the run. After the Royal Flight, the veteran had been slandered by the likes Danton and Robespierre, and was determined to save France from their tyranny. As the year since the royal execution, he had become increasingly...
  2. Napoleonic American Revolution

    This may not be plausible but let me sorta propose this: Later in the American Revolution, the British are able to take the upper hand in the war, with a stronger southern campaign. The British secure the south, while Washington attempts to retake New York (which I believe was his original plan...

    This is my first real Alternate History on this site. Please feel free to critique this, let me know what I could fix, and if you like this novel. POD: Napoleon and Tsar Alexander work together to defeat England in India and the British sue for Peace, and Russia is defeated, all in 1812...

    Monarchist or Bonapartist France post 1872?

    Can France have a monarchy or another Napoleon after 1870? What I mean is, after some sort of crisis could people loose faith in the Republic? P.S I'm not sure whether to put this in before or after 1900 because it can happen before or after 1900. But, I'm saying after a point before 1900 so...
  8. Napoleon accepts the Frankfurt Proposals

    ... and promptly dies. Suppose at Leipzig or sometime between then and the proposals being posed to Napoleon he is badly injured one way or another, enough to make him worry that he will be unable to take to the field again or even be near the front and as such he decides to accept the proposals...
