No conflict, just Goering will suffer a freak accident and his last wish will be for Himmler to succeed him.Inspired by the thread about Hitler not committing suicide...
What if he dies of natural causes in late March or early April 1945?
Would we get a Goring-Himmler succession conflict?
Or he is cleaning his gun and acccidentally shoots himself in the neck, yes.Accidentally cuts his head off while brushing his hair.
Quite a way back, according to words of the Marine Hymn - “From the shores of Tripoli to ……. “'Less US Intervention In Middle East'. Maybe this is a PoD that's more fit for 'Chat' even though American meddling in that region goes back to at least the days of President Eisenhower (and maybe even further back than that), but still.
This is Tripoli, Lybia, not Tripoli, Lebanon. Northern Africa, not Middle East .Quite a way back, according to words of the Marine Hymn - “From the shores of Tripoli to ……. “
OTL because Bush accused Irak to support Al Qaeda in doing 9/11. So, no noticeable differenceswhat if iraq did 9/11 ?
Iraq would be taken out in 2001, rather than the wait till 2003. The USA would have a casus belli and would not need to go down the whole weapons of mass destruction road. Afghanistan and the Taliban remain as they were, and are again now, without the US having any reason to get involved there.OTL because Bush accused Irak to support Al Qaeda in doing 9/11.

I mean Russia was essentially crippled for much of the 1990's. Not sure that things went truly that far but the Russian states ability to collect revenue was severely limited for a long time. Thats largely a result of the fact that Russia was trying to build a tax base from scratch as prior to 1991 Russia had been a part of the larger USSR which operated a bit differently from the new state.I've heard that "In the early 90s, Russia completely lost the ability to collect taxes and didn't get it back until a few years later (1993-94?) Is that true? Seems like being unable to collect tax revenue would cripple a country. "
I guess the answer depends on if they can avoid getting sunk? Are they good at defending themselves as well as what they are escorting?AHQ/WI:
What if 1 or 2 Dido Class AA cruisers were assigned to provide AA cover for Force Z? Would having 2 dedicated AA cruisers (that proved their worth in the Med) change the outcome?
Considering the Dido class were the rough equivalent to the USN Atlanta class i would assume so? Im pretty sure a Dido class ship has better AA firepower then poor old Repulse.I guess the answer depends on if they can avoid getting sunk?

Date's very odd.What happens if Hitler dies from a stroke on March 20 1993 and his successor does not denounce or break the German-Polish pact of non-aggression?
