  1. Would Japan attack an Axis China?

    Absolutely. China was the #1 goal and all the other stuff they did was mostly to service the objective of conquering China. And as OTL showed, the Japanese weren't exactly cautious about declaring war. Not that they'd have to be in this situation: what's Germany really gonna do to help China...
  2. Trotsky's USSR

    Can this meme that Trotsky was a hero please just die already? I swear, in an alternate timeline people are posting here asking about the bright democratic future Stalin could have brought if that dastardly Trotsky had just been killed... Just because Stalin was a huge cunt and Trotsky was his...
  3. DBWI: A American revolution instead of an British Revolution?

    It still sickens me that those Iranian radicals ended thousands of years of stable monarchy for the sake of some misguided goal of plebeian empowerment. The Shāhanshāh was a great man whose guiding hand provided stability and reason to the whims of the masses, tempering their more foolish...
  4. 13 Colonies sort out differences with Britian peacefully

    The Americans basically just wanted them to bugger off and let them do everything themselves and decide their own foreign policy towards the Indians and pay no taxes and basically not contribute to anything except local affairs. At that point Britain can either try to force them to integrate...
  5. Nazi Europe. A dutch view.

    You insult millions of people for being Nazi sympathizers without sufficient cause and claim to be disgusted by all of them, and then still feel you have the moral high ground when someone berates you for it? Impressive. What is there to be jealous of?
  6. AHC: Have another major civilization rise up in Eurasia

    How is Rome equal to China when the latter still exists and the former died?
  7. What if the Eastern Roman Empire collapsed?

    You can make the East fall, but thinking of a situation where the East falls but the West survives is quite a lot harder. The West was far less rich, powerful and stable. When things are so dire that even the East is trembling, I imagine the West will have been sent to its grave long before.
  8. AHC: Britain In The Central Powers

    It's hard after 1900. I think you could get Britain in pretty easily if Friedrich III and Alexander II survive. The far more liberal Friedrich would likely seem much more approachable and friendly to Britain than Wilhelm, and would be much less likely to unnecessarily piss them off. Meanwhile...
  9. Most powerful nation relatively?

    Yeah, but this is After 1900.
  10. Could the Byzantine Empire have survived?

    I'm not sure. Even when it existed Westerners liked to call it the Empire of the Greeks or whatever. I don't see why we would be kinder to it if it survived longer.
  11. AH: More Progressive Islam

    Remember, everything bad in the world is Europe's fault. :rolleyes:
  12. Why didn't Romans repeat Alexander's invasion of India?

    Eternal glory and fame for its ruler? :p
  13. What would happen if the United States won in Canada during the Revotionaty war?

    Why would that be "worst"? What's so bad about a stronger USA?
  14. AHC : Anglo-Afro-Indian 'Mega Culture'

    The problem with the concept of equality between peoples in the Empire is that you're effectively asking everyone to kneel before the Indians, as they will be the most numerous group BY FAR. Why would the British want to be ruled by the Indians any more than the Indians wanted to be ruled by them?
  15. How would a Communist France deal with its colonies Post WWII

    Not much would change. Communist France would maintain colonial dictatorial rule justified with the old White Man's Burden rhetoric changed into the Socialist Man's Burden. "We'll hold on to these places until they have been sufficiently developed according to dialectical materialism to join us...
  16. How could Hungary keep Transylvania?

    Axis victory wouldn't get them all of Transylvania, only the northern half.
  17. In A Central Powers Victory, What's Hitler Up To?

    He was speaking just fine. He sounds very passionate and emotional and is perfectly understandable. Meanwhile, Churchill sounds like he's perpetually bored and he does not pronounce his words very clearly. It's certainly doesn't sound "a lot better." As far as content is concerned the edge may...
  18. WI: George Lucas Dies While Making Episode I

    Someone else makes it because this is just guaranteed to make a preposterous amount of money. It might be better or worse, who knows?
  19. Why did countries choose foreign princes as monarch between 1800-1900?

    Because they are part of an aristocratic family which is accepted as such by the rest of the European monarchs. If you pick some random guy off the street to be king, the other European monarchs will laugh him out of the room and your royal family won't be regarded as legitimate. Even the...
  20. Greatest Pre-1900 European Dynasty?

    When it comes to pre-Victorian Europe, always bet on France. ;)
