Give me an Alternate History Challenge

I have been trying my hand at different alternate history stories for a while now but nothing has really inspired me. Plain and simple, I have a bad case of Writer's Block. That's where you come in. I need an alternate history challenge, an interesting "what-if", preferably with a POD before 1900. I don't care where or when.

Any takers (givers?)?
 
What if Edward V (older of the two princes in the tower) had lived & ruled?

I can think of some others, but this ought to be interesting.
 
1:create a way to assimilate the turkic peoples into indo-iranians:p

2: a surviving Dacian kingdom

3: a way to make greek culture be replaced by a barbaric one (anny extermination neccesary:D)
 
Make the Roman Empire as big as possible before 200, and then fall apart as quickly and totally as possible after that.

Make Byzantion into a great empire. Yes, Byzantion, not Byzantium--the Greek one.

Make New Netherland and New Sweden survive and expand. Make William III grant the English colonies on the Eastern Seaboard to New Netherland, and establish a lasting union of the Netherlands and England. New Netherland and New Sweden would then dominate the Eastern Seaboard... until being conquered by Spain :D.
 
An alternate War of the Roses between the Hollands and Yorks following a brief Mortimer rule

King Stephen's son survives to become King of England

Jane Grey remains Queen.

A French Civil War like the War of the Roses (lack or breakdown of Salic Law need tho!)

A Protectorate Republic not under Cromwell.

HRE Rudolf I defeated by Ottokar II

HRE Frederick II has a surviving son by Isabella of England and recreates the Kingdom of Arelat

What if Thomas Becket had not been murdered?

What if Simon de Montfort had won?

What if Henry the Young King had lived?

What if John Comyn had killed Robert the Bruce (instead of the other way around)?
 
A successful French invasion and Republic of Connaught leaves Ireland split East/West into an English dominated side and a Napoleonic Republic dominated by the French.

Cause the development of a feudal social structure in North America. IOTL, outside some big plantations in the American South, it was always more small, independent farmers. So, this challenge is to have a major Anglophone colony in the New World become a feudal state.
 
With a POD no earlier then 1850, make South Carolina a liberal political strong hold.

With a POD no earlier then 1700 make Kansas a colony of the U.K with the rest of the U.S upper 48 surounding it.
 
William I's division of his realms between William II (England) and Robert (Normandy) is permanent.

The Norman rulers of Pembroke get involved in Ireland as OTL, but the English crown stays out.

Everything in the Book of Mormon is true, but the Lamanites and/or Nephites are still around when the Europeans reach North America.
