  1. Twilight of the Red Tsar

    Doesn't this also complicate (or at least reduce the popularity of) the "Jews are all dirty crypto-commies who want to destroy us" conspiracy theories?
  2. Spiralling out of Control: 1992 - RNC

    Don't really have much to say except that I think that this TL is looking really interesting.
  3. Disaster at Leuthen TL - Frederick the Great dies in battle

    Regarding the German nationalism question, I see certain parallels with pan-Arab nationalism in 20th century.
  4. Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire

    Any news about the map?
  5. Disaster at Leuthen TL - Frederick the Great dies in battle

    I can't see Wallonia as a separate country, it isn't Ukraine. it would have no separate identity from the rest of France. The way I see it either Prussia leaves it under permanent occupation (which would tie some of Berlin's/their allies troops down) or they risk a potential situation in the...
  6. Dimension 398 or How a Few Bacteria Changed the Course of History

    I think FleetMac summed it up. I'd like to note that when I said they had a slightly better claim, I meant a slightly better claim compared to non-existent.
  7. Dimension 398 or How a Few Bacteria Changed the Course of History

    It's in the same way some South Slavs imagined they were the successors of the Illyrians, they live in the same place but they aren't related. Although the French might have a somewhat better claim to being related to Celts.

  9. Dimension 398 or How a Few Bacteria Changed the Course of History

    Is PM Maurras supposed to be the TTL equivalent of Charles Maurras?
  10. Disaster at Leuthen TL - Frederick the Great dies in battle

    Don't they have some value as coaling stations?
  11. Disaster at Leuthen TL - Frederick the Great dies in battle

    What about Nevagrad, since the river flows through the city.
  12. Disaster at Leuthen TL - Frederick the Great dies in battle

    Most likely the Imperial Family would have had time to get of the country before the Republicans got there.
  13. What Rises Must Set

    I think my questions got hidden behind an update, so I'm reposting them.
  14. What Rises Must Set

    Since Moldova isn't a SSR, has the Soviet encouragement of a regional Moldovan identity changed, or is it largely the same as OTL? What's the ethnic situation in French Algeria? While in OTL most Italian Libyans returned to Italy after independence might not some go to Algeria TTL, what with...
  15. What Rises Must Set

    Topics (Parallels) 1. I like the parallels between the final days of Japan's East Asia Superpower era and the dissolution of the USSR. (Egypt) 1. The Egypt article was nicely done. 2. How many Pakistanis are there relative to the native population in both Sudan and Egypt Proper (currently...
