  1. Other Half of Alaska

    In OPTL there was a strong (but brief) statehood movement for Alaska in the immediate post WW1 period. It mostly revolved around tariffs and other economic issues (where non-states like Alaska could be discriminated against). The main obstacle was that Alaska simply didn't have many people and...

  2. Westward, Ho! (A British victory TL)

    Here is a little project I've been working on. Still in development so looking for complaints/suggestions/ASB warnings. Westward, Ho! 1776: Battle of Nassau-American Patriots successfully raids the Bahamas. Several states formally renounce allegiance to Great Britain. Washington manages...

  3. Restrict the Metric System

    What are some good ideas on how to restrict the use of the metric system with a Post-1900 POD or is that too late?

  4. Great Lakes Fortifications

    Hello all! My TL has a much cooler relationship between the UK and the USA. To the point were war is sometimes threatened. POD is in 1902, and my period from 1902-1940 or so. Anyone here interested in helping me turn the Great Lakes into a fortified area? I'm looking for everything from places...

  5. Mowque Reads TL-191

    A few days ago, I was planning on doing my occasional re-read of TL-191. I own all the books (some paperback, some hardback), and do about a yearly re-read of the whole series. Upon doing so I had the idea (from a online blog I found doing it for LoTR) for doing a chapter by chapter re-read...

  7. Who made this map for me? Come and Claim it

    I feel really bad, but going through my old maps and such and I found this Ottoman creation. Who here made it for me?

  8. More Non-violent Resistance

    (I doubt this thread will get much traction but here we go) First, let's define non-violent resistance. "Nonviolent resistance (or nonviolent action) is the practice of achieving goals through symbolic protests, civil disobedience, economic or political noncooperation, and other methods...

  9. Commonwealth Flags for My Timeline- Challenge/Request

    For Glory, Prestige and Honor. My TL has need of flags for various commonwealth nations. Many of these are the same nations that were in the Commonwealth in OTL, with somewhat different histories. I've seen alot of proposals through the years for new/different/proposed flags. Here is a chance...

  10. Tunnel From UK to North Ireland

    Wiki has a page called the Tusker Tunnel. All I have really found on the idea. Is this ASB or not? It would be quite long.

  11. Magazines from my TL

    Screwing around with a little program I found. Comments are nice.

  12. Butterfly Effect

    Does the Butterfly Effect touch upon natural disaster. Ie, does the random actions of man really impact the global climate, geology and whatnot indirectly? If I wear a red shirt, and walk to work instead of jogging in a blue shirt, it'll cause a different rain pattern? What is your opinion...

  13. Some type of Globe Mapping Program?

    I am in a bit of a trouble. I have this grand idea for a sci-fi story set on a Jupiter-Earth sized world. However, I am stumbling on the first step. A Map. I suck at drawing. I simply can't make realistic continents on Paint for the life of me. Are their programs out there that will model...

  14. How would a surviving Ottoman Empire...

    deal with its ecological environment? I know very little about this part of Ottoman mindset. Would it be more, less, or same as European countries? Would Muslim thought process matter at all? Would the fact that it is very environmentally fragile matter? The fact that and Empire might soon find...

  15. A way to remove

    The black text blocks and lines from this map?

  16. The USA-UK Ship Race

    The USA- UK rivalry was fought on more battlegrounds then the simple rhetoric that was thrown around on both sides. After the First Atlantic War (1902), and even the strict neutrality during the Second Atlantic War (1910-1915) started the hostility between the two nations. One way that this...

  17. Why no tall buildings in Britain?

    In my TL I have a intense USA-UK rivalry (not quite Cold War level) and some hostility from the 1900's to maybe the 40s and 50s. After thinking of ways for them to 'challenge' each other and compete I thought of maybe building tall buildings. Both are rich industrious nations with lots of urban...

  18. Cloven Australia

    In OTL (at least according to wiki, West Australia had a movement for a split nation in the 20's and 30's. Let us say that happened (assuming peaceful plebiscite). What are the likely borders and outlook of this nation. Primary exports/imports, politics? Anyone?

  19. Any

    way to find a map of the Southern USA with state lines but nothing else? :confused:

  20. Jazz-Blues-R&B..must we?

    In my TL I am looking at the history of music in the USA. We have a Bryan presidency in 1908. (But the POD is in 1902). Anyway, with this administration we have more states rights and such. So a 'stronger' South and a more isolated one. With that in mind. Can I have more of a 'Folk Revival'...
