  1. AHQ: Industrialization of an Early Megali Greece

    Right now I'm working on a scenario where Greece becomes independent in 1807 and by 1854 is able to annex the lands of the Megali Idea, mainly through opportune moves during Russo-Turkish wars and then a Turkish civil war, and I was wondering how that would affect the industrialization of Greece...

  2. AHC: Native American Industrialization

    Let's say the colonization of North America goes differently, and instead of having one dominant colonial power on the East Coast of the US there are two or three (one creative scenario could be Basque Canada/New England [called New Navarre] and English Carolinas and Virginia with someone else...

  3. Magyarization after a successful 1848 Hungarian Revolution

    After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise in 1867, the Kingdom of Hungary saw increasing adoption of the Hungarian (Magyar) identity by ethnic minorities, both voluntarily and as a result of policies enacted by the state. If the liberal Hungarian Revolution of 1848 succeeded, with either an...

  4. AHC: Greek Southern Italy, post-1700 POD

    With a POD of no earlier than around 1700, have Greece own a portion of southern Italy, i.e. Magna Graecia, as a fully integrated part of the country. Bonus points if Greece ends up with Naples and/or Sicily.

  5. Discussion: Could Hungary maintain its natural borders longer/indefinitely with a victory in the Revolution of 1848?

    Out of all of the European nations, I feel like Hungary is surprisingly underutilized in alternate history, given their large amount of irredenta and satisfying natural borders. Of course, Hungary's main problems were the small size of the Magyar population relative to the ethnic minorities in...

  6. AHQ: Latest POD for a France without Gascony, Languedoc, and Provence

    To clarify a bit, I'm looking for a POD which doesn't simply dispossess these territories from France, but also leads to Gascon/Occitan national identities that are separate from French. One idea I was playing with was having a Navarre that inherited the Basque provinces and then proceed to be...

  7. AHC: Prosperous, United, Independent Basque Country, post-1776 POD

    Basically, have the seven Basque provinces of Spain and France exist as an independent nation by the present-day, with this country being at least as prosperous as the area is today. Bonus points for having the Basque State take additional territory from either Spain or France and/or more...

  8. AHC: More Populous Rhine Delta than Yangtze Delta

    The Yangtze Delta is the biggest megalopolis on Earth, with over 115 million people in 2013 per a quick glance at Wikipedia. While the area has developed rapidly during China's ongoing period of robust growth, the seeds for this megacity were planted well before the Rhine (-Meuse-Scheldt) delta...

  9. Alternate Development of Chemistry

    Basically, when do you think there was a good opportunity for the earlier development of chemistry as a science? In Europe, at least, chemistry was pretty hindered by the adherence to the Aristotelian physical worldview, whose greatest hits included geocentrism, bad gravity, and four elements...

  10. What would a more populous France look like?

    France was the most populated nation in Europe before the Revolution, but a combination of factors limited it's population growth in the 1800's, leading to it falling behind Russia, Germany, and the UK. If France was able to achieve a large enough rate of population growth, what parts of France...

  11. AHC: Franco-German Alliance

    To us, historical common sense would dictate that France and Germany have always been destined to be enemies on the world stage. Both powers, at least before WWII, had vested interests in keeping the other weak, and for the entirety of the existence of a united Germany, France was its primary...

  12. Index of Imperial German TLs

    For a while I've been thinking of trying to make a thread index sorted by country/region, so I wanted to try a smaller scale version with imperial German timelines first. So, how this works is when you find an timeline that focuses on/heavily features the German Empire, such as colonization or...

  13. Saxe-Lauenburg

    I have not seen one Saxe-Lauenburg centric time line ever. If anyone can make a TL where Saxe-Lauenburg forms Germany I will be a happy happy horse. Here's a jumping - off point: take Hamburg, Lübeck, or both.

  15. Help?

    Hi, I'm pretty new on this forum, and I couldn't find anywhere to post, so I'm creating a new timeline. If anyone wants to see one about a certain subject, I'd be more than happy to oblige. For now, I'm thinking of a Pope-wank or a Hansa timeline. Thanks for any feedback. Note: I will delete...
