  1. Russian wins WWI

    Germany concentrates entirely on knocking France out and Austria is left to take the brunt of the Russians offensive for a little while. The chances for the Germans taking Paris increases , while the French General Staff demands that Russia move on the Eastern Front. If the Russian Army does...

  2. AH Challenge:Greater success for the British Union of Fascists

    The Russian Communists always claimed to be internationalists while never relinquishing real power. As my Soviet History professor used to say, according to Soviet propaganda, "Russians are not better than Kazakhs or Georgians, but as the first people to embrace Communism, they're the older...

  3. AH Challenge:Greater success for the British Union of Fascists

    With a PoD of 1920, it is possible. Red Army wins at Warsaw in 1920 and by the 1921 the Red Army is joining with the German Communist Party in Berlin. War-weary France, Austria, Italy and Hungary fall to native Communist Parties allied with the Red Army. Not even Switzerland escapes the Red...

  4. To Each According

    The scenario is obviously well thought out and well-researched. So many people just dash out PoDs without proper research and seem to operate along the lines what-they-wish-had-happened instead of historical trends and actualities on the ground. Personally, I've been thinking about this heavily...

  5. Sarah Knox Taylor doesn't die of Malaria in 1835 or the End of the American Republic

    Thank you. I always planned on continuing the TL and even put lots of thought into it and had some interesting ideas; mainly dealing with the economic dislocation caused by the US' division, the mass migration between North and South that would dwarf the 62,000 British loyalists that left the US...

  6. Sarah Knox Taylor doesn't die of Malaria in 1835 or the End of the American Republic

    I know its been a while, but here's the next part. I plan to at least finish the parts about the war, time permitting me. Events To Wilmington Peace Conference President Fillmore designs upon coming to office were very clear; to end the war preferably with the southern states returning to...

  7. Russia rushes Railroads, the Siberian Strategy

    canals, maybe, that's what the US did at around the same time and AFAIK the US was not as wealthy as Russia at that period. Then again, 1810 was towards the end of the Napoleonic Wars and Russia needed most of its wealth to maintain its army. Of course, Napoleon's invasion of Russia and the...

  8. Challenge: Evolution Debate in the US settled

    True, but local government is strong as well and has more of a say at what is taught at schools then the Federal government. Even in states with a strong religious-right, most people don't believe that local churches should dictate school curriculum. If they do they send their kids to a Catholic...

  9. Sparta develop a major breakthrough

    Gunpowder is fairly simple chemically and I've heard its actually quite strange that it wasn't discovered earlier then it was. Once you've have gunpowder it isn't too long to discover that it is good in battle for scaring enemies (especially horses) and that if you stick in a hollow top with...

  10. Ziggy Stardust, shock rocker?

    I can answer this with a sold no. Oi was a revolt against art school graduates that had taken over punk and - earlier - pub rock. Bowie was a part of this and his politically ramblings would have been considered in the same way that Strummer's leftist politics were looked upon. Not favorably. It...

  11. Bernie Goetz subway shooting results in NY rioting

    Or have someone, maybe one of those men he shoot, say he said something racial. That works just as while without changing Goetz's personality.

  12. Regent Anton Arco-Valley?

    Anton Von Arco-Valley was a Bavarian aristocrat who had connections with the proto-Nazi Thule Society and shot the Bavarian Communist leader Kurt Eisner in 1919. He later spent five years in prison for the murder and the Nazi's decorated him as a "hero of the movement." Here's the challenge...

  13. Could voting rights have been enforced in there were black majority states in 1965

    From wikipedia's article about Mississippi. "Until about 1940, blacks made up a majority of Mississippians. Due to the Great Migration the state's black population declined, but it has recently begun to increase, due mainly to a higher birthrate than the state average."

  14. Decembrist Russia discussion

    Austria-Hungary and Prussia will be pissed, but I don't think they can take more then borderlands and, once the situation comes down, have problems holding on to these. In OTL, Russia was the linchpin of absolutism because of its power and Austria is too weak to try to play that role in Russia...

  15. WI No President of the USA?

    If we go with the Swiss Council thing, maybe each state or state governor picks a representative to set on the US-version of it and there's a revolving yearly Executive Councillor, or something. That would make small state's happy, but there's still the appeasement of the large states. Maybe due...

  16. Decembrist Russia discussion

    Most of Decembrists' leaders were basically, as Midgard said, "..Upper-Class Enlightenment-era humanists." There was two basic camps within the Decembrists Revolt, the Southern Society and the Northern Society, both born out of the mildly-reform orientated Union of Salvation which was founded in...

  17. Sarah Knox Taylor doesn't die of Malaria in 1835 or the End of the American Republic

    The Political Situation in October, 1851 When General Harney’s broken and demoralized army entered Wilmington, Delaware in mid-October the Union position seemed downright dire. Philadelphia was under Allied occupation and the main Union army was stuck far behind the lines and in no shape to...

  18. The Church approves of Banking?

    1.) Jews are less well-of economically and are more centrated around the Med. European monarchs wouldn't try to get them to move deeper into the interior of Europe if they don't need their economic skills, although Jewish merchants will still be active through Europe. Also, probably less...

  19. Unconstitutional Abe

    It seems that the South is actually becoming what the North used to be over a hundred-odd years ago. It has more immigrants then ever, in number that close to the original immigrant wave into New England/New York in the 1860-1900 years, and growing economic power - and with it political power -...

  20. How would Russia turn out under Alexander Kerensky?

    Assuming that, somehow, Kerensky stays in power - lets go with Kornilov isn't removed from command of the army when he tries to suppress the Soviets in, maybe make Kerensky more suspicious of the Bolsheviks - but doesn't continue the war on Eastern Front. This is a major problem with Kerensky...
