    How would Philip IV of France have handled the French succession crisis if he lived 20 extra years and outlived all his sons?

    Philip IV of France died in his 40s. It would not be inconceivable if he lived an extra 20 years. Suppose that is the case, and he outlived all of his sons, how would he respond to the looming succession crisis assuming all his sons still failed to produce living sons whose legitimacy could not...

    How successful would Henry VIII’s reforms be if there was a legitimate cadet rival Tudor line?

    Let’s suppose Edmund, Duke of Somerset didn’t die as an infant, and lived to a full grown adult with many sons of his own, and both Edmund and Henry VIII hated each other. Is it still feasible for Henry VIII to break away from the Church if he still had his OTL marriage problems without...

    WI the Plantagenets were able to consolidate control over Aquitaine during the Hundred Years War?

    After the Treaty of Bretigny, the Plantagenets regained control over a vast expanse of Aquitaine. Nevertheless, the mismanagement of the Black Prince managed to alienate most of the lords there, who defected back to the French monarchy. WI the Plantagenets were far more diplomatic and managed to...

    Effects of Zoroastrianism on China if the Anshi Rebellion succeeded in overthrowing the Tang Dynasty?

    IOTL, An Lushan had a shot in overthrowing the Tang Dynasty. Had his forces captured the Tang Emperor and his family as they tried to evacuate Chang'an, the Tang Court's resistance towards the Yan Rebels likelyh would have fragmented. Little known on this forum was the fact that An Lushan and...

    WI Richard of York was Henry VI’s royal favourite?

    IOTL Henry VI had a series of royal favourites who were of questionable competence, and the failure of these men led to the rise of Richard of York as the head of the reformist, eventually anti-Lancastrian party. I was wondering what if for whatever reason Henry VI was pals with Richard of York...

    AHC/PC Germany keeps gains from Brest Litovsk but still ‘loses’ to Entente?

    I was just wondering if it is possible for Germany to beat Russia like OTL but ‘loses’ to Entente in some way whereby Germany is forced to bribe entente by losing overseas colonies and Alsace Lorraine etc (minus losing the Polish Corridor) to Entente, along with massive financial compensations...

    WI Richard of Conisburgh was widely acknowledged as a bastard?

    There’s ample evidence that Richard of Conigsburgh was a bastard. Suppose he was officially denounced by the first Duke of York as a bastard, how would this have potentially affected the War of the Roses, assuming few other things like him marrying Anne Mortimer etc have not been butterflied? I...

    WI the sons of Henry VII of Germany survived?

    Frederick II of HRE‘s eldest son Henry VII, whom he disinherited, had two sons with his Babenberg wife. They would have been in line for succeeding the duchy of Austria if their Babenberg uncle died without an heir as per OTL. Suppose they survived, how would they have affected politics in...

    WI Charles the Bold of Burgundy was a woman?

    Suppose Charles the Bold(let’s call her Isabella of Burgundy after her mother)was born a woman and she remains the only child(like otl), she’s probably gonna succeed her father’s rule.Who would she marry? I am guessing that she would be married to Henry VI of England to maintain the English...

    How would the war have ended if Goering became fuhrer in early 1941 and there’s no German-Soviet War?

    The forum consensus seems to be that in order for no German-Soviet War to occur, Hitler had to die and Goering had to rise in his place. I Suppose this is the POD, how would the war with the British actually end? The war will probably continue a little while in Africa, but to what end? What...

    How was Maurice’s neo-Western Roman Empire meant to work?

    Before he was overthrown, Emperor Maurice had a plan to resurrect the Western Roman Empire under one of his younger sons, with the Exarchate of Italy, Africa and Spania going under his younger son while his oldest would take the rest of the empire. The problem was that with the exception of...

    Effects of a surviving WRE ON the ERE?

    Suppose that Majorian was successful in reconquering Africa and subsequently able to reign in all the Germanic tribes that have settled in the West, how would a surviving WRE affect the ERE? I think there are many things that could happen. Relationship could turn hostile over a potential Church...

    WI Henry I of England named Henry FitzEmpress his heir?

    Suppose Henry I of England disinherited Matilda and directly named her son his heir instead (after Henry FitzEmpress was born), would this have butterflied the anarchy? I think the barons would have been much more receptive of this proposal and Matilda’s supporters certainly would have Henry...

    WI Thailand refused to return land they conquered from French Indochina in 1946?

    As per the wiki, Thailand apparently only returned land they conquered from French Indochina after France threatened their entry into the UN. Suppose Thailand called the bluff or actually dragged out negotiations, could they have realistically retained the land they conquered? I think France...

    WI the Tang Dynasty destroyed Huang Chao during the crossing of the Yangtze?

    During Huang Chao’s rebellion, there were many opportunities to destroy Huang Chao before he could do substantial damage to the Tang Dynasty. The last chance to do it would be to ambush Huang Chao as he tries to cross the river during the journey back north as proposed by a subordinate general...

    WI Jesus was handed over to the emperor and executed in Rome?

    Suppose Pilate decided that the Jesus Christ problem was too big of a problem for him(not likely but not ASB) to decide and instead sent Jesus to his superiors in Rome where they confirmed the decision to kill him, how would that impact Christianity and the impact on politics? Rome is likely to...

    WI Alexander the Great had an ‘adult’ nephew with him when he died in Babylon?

    Alexander the Great’s sister had a son—Neoptolemus II of Epirus IOT—- but he didn’t seen to be very relevant during the Diadochi period either because he was too young or too distant from the center of power. He didn’t even seem to have power in Epirus itself for a while given he did not succeed...

    WI Henry VIII gets decisively defeated and captured by the French in 1544?

    Suppose Henry VIII gets defeated and captured during his 1544 invasion of France, how might the French have dealt with him? A huge ransom would have been a must, but would he somehow have been forced to recant and return England to the authority of the Pope? In regards to this, I don’t think...
