What if JFK dies of a botched treatment from Doctor "Feel Good"?
What will be the official story? What would be the reaction of the Kennedys, LBJ, and other important figures? Would the Soviets try to capitalize on it?

What if Kurt Schumacher of the SDP Party becomes the Chancellor of Germany, instead of Konrad Adenauer?
Imagine a democratic socialist Western Europe vs. communist Eastern Europe? What would happen? Would that mean a Eurocommunist Italy be possible?
Would Henry Wallace would even get a chance to win?

This, plus he was very focused on industrializing and the workers of Russia, key communism features. Although, the Communist Manifesto states to discourage religion but encourage free speech, neither of which he did.
Frivolous: Are there any big seaside, riverside or lakeside cities globally that are good candidates for Chicago-style vertical uplifting in the 20th century in some AH? I'm thinking that besides the various cities of the Netherlands, something like that could maybe happen in Houston, Manila, Miami Beach, Venice or Wuhan but that's purely because they have opportunities for financial booms.
I love the idea of the Dutch lifting some of their cities, mostly because Amsterdam one meter higher would likely make the city the tallest point in most of the country, and I find that hilarious.
The problem is though that Chicago was in a unique spot. It lay on an important site, but was not yet terribly well developed, and had the funds available to raise itself. Most cities in similar positions are either to large and developed, or poor to afford it.
Alot of tanks that were cast were not done so in a single piece, so welding was used on a majority of cast tanks. And I do think things like cast turrets were used before cast hulls.
Places with rule of law that aren't democracies or republics? Rule of law is typically connected to democracies or republics, but not always?

The Wehrmacht gets prosecuted more for its crimes, making the clean Wehrmacht myth much harder to back up and also removing some of the memoirs from the generals and officers that make them and the Wehrmacht look way better than they actually did.
Could Germany have developed into an Indonesia-style republic, giving up its imperial monarchy while keeping some/most/all of the subnational monarchies other than Prussia around? I'm putting this question in this forum because that's when the Empire was dismantled IOTL, but I have nothing against a POD between 1871 and 1900.
