  1. WI: Irish Potato Famine Becomes British Potato Famine

    Or you could actually take political action to help avoid a famine. But with the laissez faire of politics during this time period, politicians in London didn't really care about starving Irish. Helping them was just to expensive. Too bad. Also, Ireland was a net exported of foodstuff during...
  2. Your Ideal European Borders?

    What are the languages of europe?
  3. Es Geloybte Aretz - a Germanwank

    Uranium was already found in 1928 according to this wiki article. It really depends on how big the need for uranium is, I think.
  4. Es Geloybte Aretz - a Germanwank

    But how many people are living in Südwest around this time? some low hundred thousands? That could be few enough to make its incorparation easy. I think at least after uranium is found and used for nuclear technology, germany doesn't want to seperate for strategic reasons.
  5. Would things have been better if the Central Powers won WW1?

    Only the parliament act of 1911 and the represantation of the people act of 1918 made the uk more democratic than the German empire (only mainpand, not colonies), in my opinion. A Germany on the winning side of WWI would also have changed its system. I don't know enough about France atm.
  6. Would things have been better if the Central Powers won WW1?

    So you prefer imperialistic, racist semi-democracies, semi-democratic monarchies, and full on autocratic Empires. Much better, I guess
  7. Would things have been better if the Central Powers won WW1?

    I could, but that would need someone asking to be forgiven. Anyway, did it change your opinion in anyway, now that your views on the so called polish border strip and ethnical cleansing on entente side have been challenged, does this change your view on a post-war cp victory world?
  8. Would things have been better if the Central Powers won WW1?

    Even if they were "recent settlers", they lived their nearly 50 years and of course their children were deported, too. At least a 100.000 people were deported, some sources say 200.000 with nearly half going back after president Wilson intervened. You could also call the frenchification of the...
  9. Would things have been better if the Central Powers won WW1?

    You do know that ELsaß-Lothringen was ethnically cleansed of germans after France got it, right?
  10. Alternate vocabulary in upcoming timeline

    GEMSEL doesn't make much sense, just EMSEL would make more sense, but even that sounds strange, as light is of course also a electromagnetic wave.
  11. WI: Christianity were more universal

    The two swords theory is not a dogma of the roman catholic church. It sees the popes authority over the church as de fidi, but says nothing else about states.
  12. "Our Struggle": What If Hitler Had Been a Communist?

    I bet he's going to spy on the communist party first, then take it over. Interesting concept, I wait for more.
  13. Prince Henry of Prussia: Rise of the U-boat, Redux

    I really like your rewrite, even though your dialouge writing style sounds a little stiff. It looks like theater-script, with the speaker named and after that just one little word, like "yes". Maybe try to blend the dialoue more together? The development in africa is really interesting, for me...
  14. Prince Henry of Prussia: Rise of the U-boat, Redux

    I think the correspondence between the US Ambassadors and the foreign offices of WWI parties is enough to see that it is costum law and that great britain feels bound to many parts, just not those which would limit them. they even acknowledge signing it. Which just shows that rules are...
  15. Prince Henry of Prussia: Rise of the U-boat, Redux

    Just because they didn't ratify it, doesn't mean it wasn't seen as costum law. Great Britain "just" modified it for their gains, so they admitted before their desire to cheat.
