    Could Kenya have become a "Rhodesia?"

    In doing research for an upcoming TL, I found out more about the significant - though still extremely small - white population centered around the "white highlands." However, it seems like the quality of the settlers there were a bit different than those of Rhodesia largely hailing from the...

    WI: Rhodesia joins South Africa in 1923

    In 1923, a referendum was held in Southern Rhodesia - now Zimbabwe - as whether not to join the Union of South Africa. Probably due to the overall Boer nature of SA, Rhodesians opted not to join in favor of “responsible government.” What would happen if the opposite happen? One, SA would have a...

    Pop Culture WI: Spock Stays Dead

    This has to deal more of Star Trek from a pop culture angle, rather than in-universe. There are indications that Nicholas Meyer intended for Spock to stay dead after the events of The Wrath of Khan. The backlash against Spock's death required Nimoy to reassure fans that Spock was not through as...

    AHC: Socially Liberal US, Socially Conservative Canada

    I've thought for some time that, given a few changes in cultural trends, that Canada could have a considerably more conservative culture than the United States. So, guys, what do you think?

    DBWI: Germany Invades Norway Before Allies

    I know that the race to invade Norway at the opening stages of World War II were close. I was wondering what the outcome of the war would be if Hitler had been a little more timely in his invasion of Norway before the Allies?

    AHC/Plausibility Check : American-Japanese Cold War?

    An American-Nazi Cold War is a favorite among Alt-historians. However, I have often wondered if it were plausible to have an American-Japanese Cold War. Think of it this way: Japan controls a block of East Asian nations under the guise of a "Co-prosperity Sphere" : Manchukuo, Mengjiang, Burma...

    AHC: A Female Dictator

    I'm sure this has been done before, but it's worth doing it again. :p Your challenge: have a woman come to power as Head of State, or Head of Government, as the case may be, and become an autocrat. You can have any PoD past 1900. A monarch is allowed, but not preferred. Bonus points if she is...

    Poll: Alternate Name for WWI

    Please Read Before Voting? Soon, I plan to debut a TL involving a CP victory caused by British Neutrality. Germany engages France, and manages to defeat it. What is the best possible alternate name for it, given these circumstances?

    What Happens In Germany After Hitler In Axis Victory TL?

    Axis Victory TL's are among the most popular in Alternate History, which means there are many that miss the mark in terms of plausibility. I enjoyed Fatherland, a TL that I actually think could work. However, the greatest problem was the fact that Hitler was still alive by 1964. From my...

    AHC/Plausibility Check: Independent Deseret/Mormon Homeland

    In balkanizing the United States, it seems, and independent Deseret is a must. I can't think of any region in the United States that has combated so much with the federal government to the point that independence would be palatable/possible (other than the South of course) than Utah. Though the...

    WI: Puyi goes to Britain

    In his younger years at the Forbidden City, Puyi was educated by his beloved Scottish tutor Reginald Johnston (played by Peter O'Toole in The Last Emperor). When he was evicted from the 1924, he attempted to gain a visa to Britain in order to study there. The British consulate denied his...

    Styles for an American Monarch?

    It would be interesting to see how an American monarch (not tied with an existing European monarch) would be addressed. Several, almost farsical styles were devised for George Washington after he had become president. Here would be my proposal:

    AHC/WI: Mussolini joins the allies?

    How would Mussolini and Fascism be viewed today had Italy joined forces with Britain and France during WWII? To achieve this, let's assume that Mussolini doesn't invade Ethiopia (or at least doesn't break international law by employing poison gas), cultivates a stronger relationship with the OTL...

    The effects of a Henry Clay presidency (1844-)

    Just recently, I had visited Henry Clay's home of Ashland near Lexington, Kentucky. The docent was great, especially when he ventured into AH-territory... As you recall, Henry Clay was the Whig candidate in 1844, running against the eventual winner James K. Polk, who promised to annex Texas...

    DBWI: If Kim Campbell was elected Prime Minister in

    I'm an American, but I do have an interest in Canadian politics. While visiting the Canadian Parliament website, I noticed that former minister of justice and Kim Campbell was a candidate for the PC leadership in 1993, although she ultimately lost to the young yet uninspiring Jean Charest...

    Ben's Dream: A Repository

    Welcome to Ben's Dream, a universe in which Benjamin Franklin realized his ideal of an American union within the British Empire. Now, this won't be an outright "timeline," per se. I currently don't have the time to flesh-out a true narrative like some of the other timelines on the boards...

    AHC: Franklin's Albany Plan Realized

    In 1754, delegates at the Albany Congress, which met to patch relations with the Iroqouis tribes, drafted a proposal of an American Union. Benjamin Franklin, the brains behind the plan, would later write that opposition from the colonial governments and the Board of Trade ultimately led to the...
