  1. The Falcon Cannot Hear: The Second American Civil War 1937-1944

    You know, I wouldn't be surprised if a terrible plague ala Spanish Influenza broke out. The conditions in much of the country are just rip for it. Heck, I'm a bit surprised that nothing came out of OTL's Dust Bowl.

  2. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    I'm probably missed something important that explained it all, but why Mexico is still called Mexico in a world where Spain is balkanized beyond recognition and the Aztecs were defeated by a Roman, who was largely supplied by a French state?

  3. The Reign of Romulus Augustus

    I think Romulus' intent is to at least distract the Visigoths as much as possible so they did not meddle in the war against the Vandals. If he can make any actual gains in Hispania, so much the better.

  4. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    True, but he also died within five weeks, which lead to Manuel IV Klados being given the crown on a silver platter. Moreover, incompetent as in "inadequate to or unsuitable for a particular purpose", which in this case was to provide the Empire with good, steady leadership for a long period of...

  5. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    I wonder if having the Roman people see the rather epic failures of the Senate holding some power for a change but then promptly electing King Incompetent I and II will effectively gut democracy in the Empire for generations to come. Or at least give an excuse for the next real Emperor to break...

  6. TL-191: After the End

    I can wait. :D

  7. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Gone fishing? Taking a break from AH.com that is?

  8. Rumsfeldia: Fear and Loathing in the Decade of Tears

    Knowing Drew, we will instead be getting some sort of analogue, and the resulting fallout will ruin American music for years if not decades to come. :D

  9. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Geez, who would have figured that all of this drama would have arisen from posting a Star Wars song. Anyway, I am looking forward to seeing how this entire fiasco plays out. Still rooting for Andreas Jr. to grab the throne, if only for a few minutes before passing it down the line. Also...

  10. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Besides whatever token forces they have on the western borders, the vast bulk of Ottoman army just had a few brutal rounds of combat with some Indian powers and is now busy occupying all of Persia, Pakistan, and freaking Afghanistan. B444 also indicated that there was also a (rather convenient)...

  11. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    No wonder they've stayed out of the Times of Trouble; the Ottoman army must be stretched pretty thin holding all that land.

  12. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    I, for one, think their strength is rather overrated. They certainly look big on a map and they doubtlessly would be a credible threat now with the Roman military so utterly gutted, but all of that is recent conquest that hasn't been consolidated; the Ottoman army must be stretched pretty thin...

  13. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    I'm sure that they can make exceptions (or at least overlook a few details) in those certain situations. The Empire wouldn't have lasted for over 1,500 years if its bureaucracy was highly inefficient and uncompromising.

  14. TL-191: After the End

    Seconded. Motion carried. :D

  15. TL-191: After the End

    Just pointing out one tiny typo I found in case you ever plan to do a complied remastered edition. However, I have to say that this TL is definitely one of the best written, both grammatically and plot wise, on AH.com. I enjoy every second of reading it and always look forward to your next update.

  16. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    With some inside help, Russia and Georgia together are currently smacking around the Empire to the point where Timur is probably green with jealousy.

  17. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Unless he does it totally voluntarily, I don't see any Emperor giving up the absolute power the Roman Throne has held since the Caesars. Someone or something with more power would have to force it to happen.

  18. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    And why is that? Why do people seem to think that TTL is going to be OTL with a surviving Rome and a few different names in terms of development?

  19. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Because OTL ideas of democracy and nationalism are "inevitable" according to several people here. That's why.

  20. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Ah, yes. I have so been looking forward to these "inevitable" ideas of democracy and OTL's Enlightenment developing in the same way as OTL (under new names of course... for the most part!) and ripping the 1.5 millenium old Roman Throne a new one. Just like the "inevitable" OTL nationalism that's...
