    Time for the Champagne: An F1 Timeline

    "For me, Penske Racing probably has some of the best racing pedigree in motorsports right now. I mean, how many teams can you name that have done what they've done?" - Ayrton Senna in an Autosport interview, 1994 "Regardless of what I've said in the past, IndyCar has helped Formula 1 grow, and...

    Best plausible ways for the British Empire to decolonialize 'gracefully'?

    With any PoD after 1900 (with the exception of those completely preventing the World Wars), what would be the best ways for the British Empire to dissolve from colonies into nations? For example, could unrest caused by the break-up of the British Empire into independent nations, such as the wars...

    Effects of Looser Immigration Policy in USA?

    I realize that the question of the effects on the United States of a looser policy (sometimes even no restrictions) in regards to immigration in the 1800s has been asked before. But, what I want to ask is what the effects on the rest of the world be of the US gaining more immigrants than OTL and...

    CH: Make the Canadian video game industry dominate the market

    So basically, with a POD after 1980, make the Canadian video game industry much more popular and better than now. I already know that the video game industry in Canada is very good, but can you make it take the market from the other players in the industry? (i.e., the offspring of Activision...

    Make Canada an extremely powerful nation.

    Basically, with a POD after 1900, can you make Canada a great power, rivaling or even surpassing the U.S., the British Empire, or other great powers? The economy, population, and military of Canada should be significantly "better" than OTL (pretty obvious this scenario). After the Second...

    Can you save the Skorpion?

    What the title is referncing to is the PZL-230 Skorpion, a Polish ground-attack aircraft developed in the late 80s/early 90s. What set this aicraft apart from the others that existed was that it had several stealth features on it. On the wiki article, it is reported that it could have been one...

    WI: The German stealth program continued?

    In the 1980s, West Germany had an active stealth project, lead by Messerschmitt-Bolkow-Blohm, which succeeded in actually making a real design, called the MBB Lampyridae. They succeeded in making a mock-up for wind-tunnel testing. Plus, the RCS (radar-cross section, for those who don't know) of...

    WI: No T-34?

    Exactly what it says on the title. So what would happen if they never bothered to develop the tank? Could this have a substantial effect on WWII?

    WI: André-Gaston Prételat is listened to by the French Military?

    He had actually predicted that the Germans could invade through the "impenetrable" Ardennes in the year 1938. Obviously, the high command didn't listen, as they were thinking too conservative, too World War One like (in a way). So what if they actually took his advice? What would happen...

    Japan wins?

    So basically, I've been reading some threads recently, and I've seen that some members have suggested that the only possible way Japan could win is with a POD before 1900. So, the challenge is to make a POD before 1900 that eventually goes a long way to helping Japan win World War II. I made...

    A different Canadian history...

    This is my first thread, so it might sound bad. So what I'm thinking is that WI France ceded New France (Quebec today) to Britain in the aftermath of the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714), rather than after the Seven Year's War (1754-1763)? Would Canada be more populated or "invested in"...
