  1. ATL Nobel Prize Winners?

    Assuming a POD after the establishment of the Nobel Prizes, who are some likely candidates for the Prize in various alternate scenarios? One example I can think of is President Wilson winning the Peace Prize for negotiating a compromise peace in WWI. Any others? Also, another POD to do with...
  2. WI: Second Korean War in 1976?

    As it says on the tin. What if war breaks out over the Axe murder incident in 1976? The US was fresh out of Vietnam, so I imagine any large-scale intervention would be extremely unpopular. Who would win? How does the war play out? Does the USSR or the PRC intervene? How much does the US aid the...
  3. A different Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact

    What would be the effects of the original territorial divisions of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact being agreed to between Nazi Germany and the USSR? A map for reference: What effects would this have had on the war? If the Germans still have their massive early successes against Poland...
  4. AHC: Keep Firefly Flying

    Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to keep the show Firefly from being cancelled by Fox, and keep it airing for all of Whedon's planned 7-year run. There are no limits on PODs, so you can mess around with the cast, etc, but you must keep the show recognizable to OTL's Firefly...
  5. WI: The Watergate Burglars Aren't Caught?

    As it says on the tin. What if the Watergate burglars hadn't been caught? Would the conspiracy have ever been oncovered? What would be the effects of the conspiracy being uncovered after his presidency is over? How does Nixon go down in US history?
  6. WI: Nationalist Victory in the Chinese Civil War?

    How plausible is this? How far back would the POD have to be? One idea that I have is having the Communists be less successful in their war against the Japanese, leaving them in a weaker position to take advantage of the Japanese surrender. The Nationalists are then able to defeat the...
  7. Gustav II Adolf Isn't Killed at Lutzen

    What happens? Specifically, how does it affect the Thirty Years' War and its aftermath? What would the peace of the war look like? I know that this would have probably led to a much stronger Swedish Empire, but I don't know much beyond that.
  8. WI: Orthodox Reformation?

    How could a movement similar to the Protestant Reformation occur in the Eastern Orthodox Church? What would be the effect of such a movement?
  9. WI: Sergei Korolev dies in the gulag?

    What are the effects on the space race and missile development post-WW2? Does this lead to a less intense space race, since Korolev is not around to push the Soviets to make a satellite?
  10. WI Prussia takes the Sudetenland from Austria in 1866?

    as the title says. Prussia takes the Sudeten from austria after the austro-prussian war in 1866, as part of a peace similar to the one that ended the franco-prussian war OTL- reparations, etc. italy still gets venetia. what happens? perhaps a stronger german-italian alliance? by ww1, whay would...
