  1. WI: Russia (re-)elected Communist Party instead of Putin?

    I recall I saw a map on this premise in god knows which map thread. Can't really remember anything else about it. My question is simple: Was it possible? And how would have it been different then Putin's Russia? Will Russia follow Chinese path towards Dengism?

  2. Looking for a map

    So I don't know if this is allowed. I seem to recall that there was a thread in this board where we can ask others about past maps that we recall having seen but can't find. If there's already a thread for that purpose, feel free to merge this into it. Anyway, I'm looking for high quality map...

  3. Integralist Brazil: How would it look like?

    Basically, how would an Integralist dictatorship rule Brazil? Who would be their core powerbases and political pillars of Integralist power structures?

  4. WI Britain lose India in 19th century: Consequences for Britain

    This thread isn't much about looking for ways to make it happen nor about its plausibility, but more to explore the possible effects of such lost to Britain.

  5. How to divide Kazakhstan?

    I'm trying to divide Kazakhstan for a map I'm currently making. The basic premise is that Soviet Union falls apart more violently, giving way for more militant irredentism(which also has an upper hand). How will Kazakhstan end up under such premise? Will Russia only seize the northern part of...

  6. WI : Russia had remained a monarchy?

    Placed in Before 1900 because I don't think Nicky II could've saved it.

  9. WI: Soviet Cybernetic Communism?

    What if Cybernetic Computerized Planned Economy had pulled off back in the Soviet Union? Say Kosygin and Glushkov had better luck and Brezhnev worse, then on the course of the next two decades the Soviets completed a crude computerization system of centralized economic bureaucracy. How will it...

  10. WI : No Vargas?

    Anyone here knowledgeable about Brazilian First Republic up tp 1930? I'm trying to figure out how would Brazil have developed without Getulio Vargas. The man was propelled by compromise between political factions and a military coup, which then proceed to enact pro middle class and pro-worker...

  11. WI : French Antarctique and Southern Cone

    Probably we would need to change French approach to colonialism from scratch. But what would it take to get French Antarctique hold and expand to engulf the southern cone ?

  12. Wank Global South

    With PoD after 1900, create a world by present day where at least 40% of world population living south of Europe and China, outside english-speaking white settler countries such as Australia and South Africa, to live a living standard equal or higher to that of Thailand's average. In addition to...

  13. Surviving Mu'tazilism and its possible development

    How could have Mu'tazilism survived ? And then, how will it actually develop as a political and judicial framework ? I've been re-reading again on Mu'tazilism, and while I think I still don't have sufficient grasp of the subject I shall throw this anyway for feedbacks. Ideally, Mu'tazilites...

  14. WI : Peru Confederation Survives

    Do we need to prevent the Confederation War ?

  15. Pure Hypothetical Question : Japanese Papua New Guinea

    Regardless of how, Japan manages to get and keep PNG up to present day. Just assume no one else of significance is able or willing to undo it or event feels threatened by it, for whatever reason(Criticism however, is another matter entirely). How would Japan run the place ? Judging from...

  18. Different Chocolate

    Upon discovering Xocoatl Soup in Mexico, Spaniards decided the original version was kind of crazy and they modified it with sugar, vanilla and milk into the sweet stuff we know and love today. What if it was the Chinese who 'first' encountered chocolate ? Or the muslims ? What will they do with...

  19. WI : Different West Africa before colonial rule ?

    Had the Sahel only seen political break down towards the 19th century, instead of just about rebuilding from anarchy, how would European(French) colonization have fared there ? Like in Asia, yes. Meaning, they'll have an elite and stronger native structure that they'll have to accomodate. Does...

  20. WI : Netherlands "returning German"

    The country of Netherlands was founded as opposition against Habsburg rule, thus its exit from Holy Roman Empire.
