    WI: Morocco wishes to become a US state?

    I recently remembered reading about how Morocco and the US have had very good relations dating back from the founding of the country or shortly after it, and had a very weird and random idea pop into my head. Moving aside the likely improbaility of it, what might the response be in the US or...

    DBWI- Constitutional Monarchies weren't the norm?

    Recently, the passing of the King of France has restarted talks by some within the country to move towards the idea of France becoming a Republic and ditching the monarchy, which seems to have been gaining steam slowly over the last two decades due to scandals within the Royal Family and some of...

    PC: Could Mexico have gone the Brazil route for Independence?

    This is just something that randomly popped into my head, and I unfortunately do not know enough of the history to know if there was ever a possibility for such but... Was there any point in time where Mexico could have had a member of the Spanish Royal family take the crown and have it go it's...

    Could the US have enforced the Monroe Doctrine during the Civil War?

    Out of a sudden curiosity and interest in looking at diplomacy during the US Civil War, I was reminded that the French did intervene in Mexico in the middle of it, and that it took time before the US got move involved to deal with the situation and enforce the Monroe Doctrine. There was also the...

    WI:Aftermath if Mexico 'beats' the US in the Mexican-American War?

    This is also sort of an AHC for those want to try to figure out how it happens. Basically, the premise I'm working with here at least is that at minimum, Mexico is able to do enough fighting back that the war drags into a stalemate, or who knows, maybe the Mexicans do something surprising...

    WI/AHC: Central America reunifies?

    I blame having recently watched a Vicky 2 video on youtube and being reminded that they existed... This is both a challenge, and a sort of general what if for the idea of Central America reuniting to recreate the Federal Provinces of Central America, or the USCA. Is there a viable path for...

    Crossbows: More Prevalent & Easier to Use?

    I've had thoughts like this before, but wanted to ask... What effect might there have been had Crossbows become much more prevalent then they did, and easier to use? EDIT: I decided to expand on the why I had for asking this. I've often wondered if it might have been possible to use some later...

    AHC: Colony of Muslims in the America's

    This alternate history challenge is to get and have a colony in the America's that is majority Muslim. It can be as small as say, Puerto Rico, or as big as you think you can get it. It must last for at least a hundred years, though plenty of bonus points if you can get it to last all the way up...

    DBWI- Soviet Union single party dictatorship?

    I know this is a predominantly western forum, and therefor full of people who lean towards Capitalism, but I must admit to being someone who closely follows the elections in the USSR every time they pop up, and after the recent one saw major gains amongst the current Vanguard party, giving the...

    US President term is for life?

    This thought occurred to me a bit ago after a weird thought in the US pol chat... But what would the effects have been if the term for President was for as long as the President shall live or wishes to hold the office? Eg that the way to leave is either via death or by resigning? With the idea...

    Could Mexico have gone Communist?

    This is something I was recently wondering about, possibly as a sort of plausibility check thing, but I decided to just do this thread instead. As someone who has an interest in Mexico and Mexican history, but not a great dearth of knowledge in it, was there any point between say, the 1930's to...

    WI/AHC: Islamic China?

    Is there a point in time where Islam could have possibly come to dominate China, or enough of it anyways, for there to be an Islamic dynasty ruling over all or most of China?

    WI/AHC: Mali under Mansa Musa I discovers South America

    This is also a sort of plausibility check as well. The challenge and what if scenario here revolves around the very obscenely wealth Mansa Musa I of the Mali Empire ould have managed to, through expeditions, find and discover South America and perhaps even established settlements or trading...

    DBWI: Cuba a single party marxist dictatorship?

    Elections are over in Cuba, and their's a slew of results good and bad for Cuba and those in the international community who care. The Anarchists picked up another few seats to some folks annoyance, the hard-core Stalinists are thankfully down to only one representative, but the old-guard...

    AHC: Caliph as an elected title, not hereditary

    This was inspired by a brief read recently of the idea that, originally, the selection of the Caliph was to be done in a sort of Democratic manner, rather than the method of hereditary succession it later became. Today's challenge there fore is to find a manner that results in the office of...

    AHC: Early Christians as advocates for Democray

    Today's challenge is to provide an avenue for the early Christians to become advocates, theorists, and so and so forth for the ideas of Democracy, and to incorporate it as a major principle of the faith.

    Plausibility of a successful native revolt in Spanish America?

    Was there at any point during the rise of Spain's colonial Empire in the America's that the native peoples could have possibly risen up and thrown off the European invaders? Were there any that were close and might have just needed a bit more momentum or strokes of luck to have achieved success...

    White Slavery Proposal in the CSA?

    This is to answer my curiosity of something I could swear I remember being mentioned... but can't seem to find any info on. Was there a proposal in the Confederacy to allow white people to be enslaved just as blacks were?
