  1. What Would be the International Reaction to an African Nation Invading and Annexing its Neighbours?

    To get around the issue of French intervention in a former colony, what if Nigeria found a legitimate pretext to invade. For example, secretly sponsoring a coup and then invading on the pretext of restoring stability. Then their forces have to stay in order to maintain order and then a local MP...
  2. What Would be the International Reaction to an African Nation Invading and Annexing its Neighbours?

    So annexation wouldn't work but merger referendums would? That's interesting given that the Anschluss was decided by referendum. It wouldn't be a violation of a people's self determination since they would have voted yes.
  3. What Would be the International Reaction to an African Nation Invading and Annexing its Neighbours?

    Let's complicate the picture slightly. Nigeria has a great power patron in Russia which vetoes any UN Security Council Resolution on the matter. I'm a bit curious about why you think a NATO invasion would come about here when NATO hasn't intervened in Syria in spite of all that's gone on? Africa...
  4. What Would be the International Reaction to an African Nation Invading and Annexing its Neighbours?

    For the sake of argument, I'd prefer to focus on the international community's response to this rather than the plausibility. Let's just assume a country like, say Nigeria found a pretext to invade Benin, Cameroun and Togo. Nigeria either outrightly annexes its conquests or holds rigged...
  5. What if NDP won the 2015 Canadian election?

    To be fair, your government's almost stalled a couple of times because of a failure to raise the debt ceiling.
  6. What if NDP won the 2015 Canadian election?

    I was going with OP's assumption that Mulcair agreed to run deficits.
  7. What if NDP won the 2015 Canadian election?

    Canada would be seeking an IMF bailout within a few years.
  8. WI the Conservative Party wins the 1929 UK Election?

    This would probably mean that the 1930 London Naval Treaty isn't as ridiculous as it was OTL and consequently, the RN is much more powerful come wartime. Ol' Ramsay was obsessed with morality and disarmament and believed that crippling the navy was the moral thing to do.
  9. Survival of the Imperial Colonial Systems Through ReforM?

    He's made no mention of Imperial Federation.
  10. Effect on Argentianian victory in the Falkand's war on Britain's Global Standing?

    I think that there's a huge overestimation in this thread of the ability of the British public to tolerate signficant naval losses.
  11. AHC/WI: Argentina wins Falklands War

    If Argentina had purchased more exocets beforehand then they's have been able to kill all the destroyers and then go for the two carriers.
  12. Effect on Argentianian victory in the Falkand's war on Britain's Global Standing?

    Yes but losses against major industrialised powers are more tolerable than losses to third world countries.
  13. Effect on Argentianian victory in the Falkand's war on Britain's Global Standing?

    I imagine the aftershock would have been worse than that of 1956. Presumably as the US had initially been against the operation. Could Britain have lapsed into despair and isolationism?
  14. Black majority state in Europe

    Lichtenstein starts importing african slaves on a massive scale for farmwork. Over time, Africans start to outnumber whites and by the time slavery is outlawed whites are a distinct minority in Lichtenstein.
  15. Captured French Fleet in Sealion

    All it's equipment had been left on the shores of Dunkirk.
  16. Captured French Fleet in Sealion

    Germany airbases close to the channel make up for the lack of aircraft carriers.
  17. AHC ruining Star wars episode VII

    Have Snoke be an awful CGI Palpatine clone instead and replace Starkiller base with the Eye of Palpatine. Have his apprentice be a Luke turned to the dark side and on a mission to kill all the new Jedi he helped train. There also has to be a hefty amount of senate scenes and discussion of...
