  1. TL 191 WI: How can the CSA win in WWI?

    What the title says: How can the CSA in TL 191's WWI win against the United States. Can they win if they managed to capture Philadelphia as they almost did in the TL, or do they have to do more for the US to accept surrender? And if the US surrenders, what happens in Europe? Can the CSA feel...

  2. A Gunpowder Rome

    Let's say that by some accident, the Romans around 30-20 B.C. (at the start of Augustus' reign) invents Black Powder. While the ingredient of saltpetre might be tricky, I don't think it's that improbable for gunpowder to have been created by chance. Imo, Rome in this period is in a pretty...

  4. No Open Door Policy In China

    So, what would have happened if there was no US Open Door policy in 1898? Would China have been divided up as in Africa and Southwest Asia, or was this inevitable with the political situation then?

  5. Japan without Nazi Germany

    One of the reasons that Japan believed it could win WWII was that it counted on Germany to tie down enough American and Allied countries' resources and manpower. So, if Germany wasn't taken over by the Nazis (let's say that the Communists took over for this scenario), would Japan still be...

  6. "Taisho Democracy" continues in Japan

    So, whatever the reason (maybe a smaller great depression and less power to the military), Japan continues its Taisho democracy movement. An interesting point in this era was Japan's withdrawal of troops from Siberia and Shadong, as well as signing the Nine-Power treaty which made the...

  7. How Popular would Bush be if...

    (Disclaimer: I don't mean to make any political views, and I'm sorry if this insults someone in any way. I am simply making a what if?) The question is how popular would GW Bush be if he had been assassinated anytime between 9/11 and the invasion of Iraq? Imo, I think he would have been...

  8. DBWI: Alexander not killed at Granicus

    For those that don't know, around 300 B.C. there was this little known ruler of Macedon called Alexander. He was killed in this battle of Granicus when a Persian noble hit him with an ax. The Macedonians won the battle, but returned home due to the Alexander's death. So what would you guys...

  9. Late or Early Inventions

    What do you guys think are inventions that were invented earlier on average (compared to other timelines), or later. For example I think that the telescope was an late invention considering that all you had to do was to put two lenses in front of each other. It took roughly 600 years since the...

  10. The Whole FDR Planned Dec 7 Conspiracy True

    So what would happen if a few days after Dec 7, 1941, a very credible source (maybe Hoover....nvm) releases to the world that FDR knew about the Japanese fleet heading towards Pearl Harbor, but didn't do anything about it. Not only that, he was expecting the Japanese attack all along? So what...

  11. A Christian or more Western Africa

    (Disclaimer: I'm not trying to be racist so sry if the title insulted some people.) So what would be the European views of Africans be, if say they stayed Christianized and the Europe to Africa trade routes stayed relatively open throughout the Middle Ages? Say Islam doesn't expand beyond the...

  12. How long can you wage total war?

    In the Long War of The Years of Rice and Salt we see two superpowers fighting a WWI stlye war for 60 years causing over a billion deaths. Our own RCTFI's Dystopic Return of Magic has the humans fighting for 50 or so years. Basically how long can a country, if threatened by the exinction of...

  13. Blackmailing the U.S.

    If for some reason Japan during WWII manages to conquer Hawaii (I know its impossible and asb, but lets say they get extrememly lucky for the sake of argument) and blackmails the U.S. in either killing the entire population of Hawaii or negotiations for a status quo plus oil shipments? Would...

  14. What if HT was actually a good writer??

    So, Harry Turtledove is probably the best known (though not best liked) writer of AH history. So what would this genre look like if he had continued to write pretty good stories such as The Guns of the South and The Lost Legion of Videssos? Or maybe this belongs in ASB:D
