  5. AHC- Indian Colonial Power

    Of course, we all know about OTL's British Raj, and the whole Empress of India thing.

  9. WI: Cameroon beats England in 1990

    So, what if Cameroon had managed to defeat England in the quarter final at the 1990 world cup?

How does this affect the rest of the...

    Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to create an ATL where Africa holds the position of the world's wealthiest continent (by PPP, GDP per capita) by the time we reach the present day.

    Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to come up with an ATL with a POD after 1900 where South Africa, Mozambique AND Zimbabwe all get wanked relative to OTL (and yes, they do all have to be independent nations as well) by the present day. Would this be possible? And if so, what...
  12. WI The Mexican Fascist Party comes to power

    As it says; what if instead of condemning their movement as a poor imitation of their own as they did IOTL, the Italian Fascists had instead chosen to vociferously support the Mexican Fascists? As such, instead of collapsing immediately after the Italians' denounciation in 1924 as IOTL, the...
  13. WI: London Burnt

    So, WI in an ATL the authorities fail to organise coordinated firefighting efforts quickly enough to combat the Great Fire of London in 1666 effectively, resulting in far more widespread damage?

  17. AHC: 'A Butterfly Flaps Its Wings...'

    (Yes, technically I've already posted a virtually identical thread in the Before 1900 forum. But it's just so much more of a challenge if the POD is After 1900. Care to take it up?) So, 'butterflies' get mentioned a lot on this site, which got me thinking. When we talk about 'butterflies...
  18. AHC: 'A Butterfly Flaps Its Wings'

    So, 'butterflies' get mentioned a lot on this site, which got me thinking. When we talk about 'butterflies flapping around' here, we're just talking about the 'butterfly effect', the manner in which, given time, any POD will have a trickle-down effect which eventually has an impact on anything...

    As it says; your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to present an ATL where the entire island of Ireland becomes part of the USA by the present day.
