  1. American invasion of Pakistan after successfull 1993 WTC bombings.

    While most people on this board (including myself) think that successfull 1993 WTC bombing would lead to an earlier War on Terror with Sudan getting invaded due to hosting Al-Qaeda at the time, the attack itself was organized by a Pakistani terorrist Ramzi Yousef. So, let's say that the...
  2. Idea: What if Venezuela never declared independence against Spain?

    Basic rundown: -Gran Colombia never exists and instead Columbia compromises of Panama, Columbia, and Ecuador -Venezuela given protectorate status in 1864 -Venezuelan crisis of 1895 escalates into a more global conflict; Anglo-Spanish war -Anglo-Spanish war occurs; US & UK v Spain & Venezuela -US...
  3. WI : JFK Dies Of Natural Causes Before Or After 1963 (If Not Assassinated) ?

    Kennedy had plently of health problems, so I was wondering what could kill him before or after 1963. Any thoughts?
  4. AHC: With a POD after 2000, make the 00s as Bad for the US as Possible

    Okay, so the goal is pretty simple Start with a POD sometime after 12:00 AM 01/01/2000, and from it, make the next decade as bad for the United States of America as you can. Cause as much chaos, misery, and misfortune for the US - both for the government and the people - as could possibly...
  5. A hardliner ATL Soviet Union doesn't withdraw from Afghanistan, results?

    I find it confusing to what could happen Afghanistan if the Soviets never had withdrawn. And I have read these threads https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/war-on-terror-with-a-surviving-ussr.132355/ and...
  6. No Great Triumvirate? (Clay, Calhoun and Webster not Caesar, Pompey and Crassus)

    Simple as it sounds- Clay, Calhoun and Webster either never get into politics or leave early. Maybe after the embarrassment of the War of 1812 (for Clay and Calhoun) and then the financial struggles of the Panic of 1815 lead to them not running for re-election in 1816? Clay was hinting at...
  7. WI: Earlier attempt to put a European on Mexico's throne?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Mexican_Empire#Mexican_monarchism Apparently, before Nappy III was even in control many had interest in a European monarch to control Mexico as early as the 1830's. If any European nation (likely France) had done this earlier, what might the outcome be? Will...

    WI: US Takes Haiti?

    The expansion of the US was tied in every way to slavery. The south wanted to expand it, so the north needed to expand so they wouldn't be overrun commercially with the system. The war with Mexico was in part because the Republic of Texas had hazy borders with Mexico, so when they joined the...
  9. WW1 negotiated peace: What about the economy?

    WW1 concluded with a negotiated peace in late 1917/early 1918. In the peace treaty, neither side was required to pay any reparations/indemnities and both sides pledged not to introduce new punitive tariff barriers post-war. The US never entered the war and never provided unsecured loans to...

    Threadmarks: Forward

    A Forward This is looking to be my first timeline, on this site, and for a good reason. I've long felt the urge to write something for any sort of creative website, be it SCP, Alternatehistory, and the plethora of others I just can't name at this time for lack of memory. I've held back, time...

    KMT-USA World War possible?

    In a world where the KMT wins the CCW in the 30s or so (what are the best PoDs for that) and survives the war with Japan but remains a military/presidential dictatorship on some level, could a world war break out between the KMT and USA anywhere between the 90s (where many argue that China OTL...

    A functional American monarchy

    I recently watched a video of AlternateHistoryHub, in which he explained how would be a United States of America with a King, and despite I agreed in certains aspects of the politics, I consider the YouTuber's POV kind of pessimistic. (Below I would leave the video link) His view is that the...
  13. Letter from inside Algiers prison to the President of the United States Read your history oh Algerians

    We are still with quotes from ancient history books that can know more about us than we do about ourselves. In your opinion the Algerian President with the longest reign in modern history? Bouteflika 20 years old, no Boumedien 13 years old, no He is Mohammed bin Othman, known as Hajj Mohammed...
  14. Timeline's where the USA experiences a second civil war between the '60s and '70s ?

    The concept of a "Second American Civil War" is a relatively popular alt-history trope. Most hypothetical applications of this concept set the Second Civil War during the Great Depression period. I'm wondering if there are any known timelines where this concept was applied to the '60s and '70s...
  15. Saddam successfully develops nuclear weapons

    Assuming the Israelis do not destroy the Iraqi Nuclear Program, and Saddam is able to test a nuclear bomb and then further develop nuclear weapons during the Iran-Iraq war, how would that change the timeline? Iran's reaction? Israel's reaction? Other Arab countries reactions? And finally, the...
  16. No US immigration after 1895

    What if USA severely restricted immigration because of no land left for settlement after The Land Run of 1895 was the smallest and last land run in the U.S. state of Oklahoma. It came about with an agreement between the Kickapoo Indians and the federal government that gave individual Kickapoos...
  17. WI Cuba acquired by US in 1854?

    Assume the Black Warrior Affair escalates and it becomes a war. Ostend Manifesto has not been issued but lots of southern Democrats obviously want Cuba. 1) If the US win, would Cuba be annexed as a slave territory? Would Congress vote in favour? 2) Does this change the dynamics leading up to...
  18. US invasion of Iraq in late 90s?

    Ok, my scenario revolves around a "90s War on terror" setting where the main PoD is the successful 1993 WTC bombing. In 1993, US invades Sudan which hosted Al-Qaeda at the time. Let's say that in the second half of 1990s another major terrorist attack occures in US or UK. Clinton or...
  19. Who did the US and UN exactly support in Somalia during 1990s?

    Basically, for a "No Black Hawk down" scenario where US and UN intervene in Somalia with more rescources, we need to know their goals. Basically, UNOSOM II mission had an abjective of establishing a stable federal government. We know that the US opposed the Aidid but I haven't managed to figure...
  20. Best Way for US to abolish slavery (ideal scenario)?

    Ideally, as early as possible, as few deaths from any civil war as possible, actual rights and citizenship given to blacks with equal treatment, and much less southern resentment. What's the best scenario that is feasible and what POD is required?
