    Earlier Slavic migration and close Slavic contact with Latin-speaking culture

    When thinking about the profound Greek influence on Slavs, it came to my mind that strong Latin marks on Slavic culture would also have a fine appearance. We saw plenty of fusions of great cultures on the Eurasian homeland, and it was never boring. But due to a one-hundred-year time range...

  5. If the destruction of Gepidia in 567 by the Lombards and the Avars is avoided, what happens to the southern slavs?

    If the Gepids were able to win the Avar-Lombard coallision or if it never existed, what happens to the southern slavs? Would they still exist and raid the balkans depopulating it and settling there, or would Gepidia, as a east-germanic speaking entity, would still surviving in the east of...

    Okay, so, Europe has historically been dominated by the Slavs and the Celts, with Celtic empires such as Prydhain and Gaul dominating the west while great Slavic cultural centers such as Poland, Bulgaria, and, to a lesser extent, the nations of the Rus hold court in the east. However, there are...

    While the Sasanians were running amok in Syria and Anatolia during their climatic final war against the Eastern Roman Empire, the Slavs (615) and later a combined force composed of them and the Avars (617) tried to capture Thessalonica, probably the empire's second most important city in the...
  12. AHQ: How would be Slavs viewed by West if Poland was still a dominant EE power

    Slavs are often viewed by Westerners as barbaric, Asian-like savages. There are various causes of presence of this idea like - Mongol overlordship over signifcant amount of Slavs, considerable amount of Slavic countries being not as developed as (narrowly defined) "West" (France, England...

    Yugoslavia adopts Interslavic as lingua franca?

    Interslavic is a composite language promoted as a means of understandable communication between speakers of all Slavic languages. While at first glance it may sound modernistic, Interslavic is actually a few centuries old, with prototypes dating back to the 17th century. So, with that in mind...
  14. AHC: Slavs in Italy

    Your challenge is to have a Slavic polity exist on the Italian peninsula for a time. It can be a brief time, it just has to be a distinct political entity. EDIT: Whoops, this was supposed to be in Before 1900. Could a mod please move this thread there?

    PC/WI: Zoroastrian Russia?

    A weird scenario that recently came to my mind. So, Assume that Persia either manages to beat Byzantium into submission (or at least complacence) at the culmination of the Byzantine-Sassanian Wars in the early 7th century, thus attaining the top dog position in western and middle Asia for the...
  17. Austro-Hungarian triple monarchy

    How would the situation on the Balkans develop in this AT if by some means (eg. more "liberal" kaisers coming into succession) the Austria-Hungary had added a third royal entity, for Slavic peoples? So we still have Cisleitania and Transleitania, but the disputed territories of Dalmatia and...

    WI: Carantanians in Italy?

    What if the Carantanians had managed to defeat the Lombards sometime around the 8th century, and occupy Northern Italy? Perhaps all the way to Mantua, to keep it more or less realistic... How would the Carantanian state develop from there on in, in terms of: -Language and culture? -Foreign...
