  1. European alliance system with successful 1848 Revolutions

    The topic of this thread is to discuss the European alliance system that would most likely emerge after the success of the 1848 Revolutions, and also which major wars between two or more great powers would most likely occur, if any (possibly even a WWI equivalent, but not a given by any means)...
  2. AHC/WI: 'Napoleonic' alliances in WWI

    The purpose of the thread is to devise and discuss an event chain, with a POD as late as possible, by which an alternate WW1 occurs with the following alliance system: Central Powers: France, Germany, Italy, Japan, USA Entente: British Empire, Russia, Habsburg Empire, Ottoman Empire, China...
  3. Modified partition of Belgium

    An interesting alternative outcome to the situation created by the Belgian Revolution was the partition of Southern Netherlands. Proposals in this sense were made in 1830-31, the Talleyrand Plan (quadruple partition between Netherlands, France, a British protectorate, and Prussia) and the...
  4. WWI: Global War

    This scenario was born out of the combination of various ideas: to make a WWI-like situation where war does spread to every continent and pretty much every great and middle power of note; to create a scenario broadly similar to the USAO TL but a variant where the Union loses the ACW and a...
  5. WI hard limits to copyright in US Constitution

    Let's assume that butterflies during the Constitutional Convention make it so that hard temporal limits and strong protection of fair use are written in the US Constitution from the beginning. I.e., if I may pimp my own work for simplicity, quoting from the USAO Constitution The Founding...
  6. US policies with Hillary in 2008

    I run a search for this very subject, but I found much less discussion about it than I expected. So I throw the gauntlet. By whatever divergencies available, Obama's nomination campaign in 2007-08 collapses after a point or simply never takes off. Hillary easily gets the nomination, thrashes...
  7. A groundwork for Roma Aeterna

    It is going to be no mystery for regular board readers that I'm quite fond and supportive of those 'successful Rome' TLs and scenarioes where the Roman civilization-polity survives, overcomes those flaws that led to its OTL downfall, and prevents the fragmentation of Europe in a couple-dozen...
  8. WI: a troubled 1981

    Let's assume that: Ronald Reagan is assassinated; Pope John Paul II is assassinated and sufficient evidence of WarPac intelligence involvement in the conspiracy emerges; by whatever political butterflies necessary within the Soviet Politburo (in all likelihood including the early death of...
  9. A multipolar 1940s Europe

    Recently I stumbled upon a mod for a WWII grand strategy game that included plenty of alt-historical 1930s-1940s event paths for various nations and great powers. I was inspired to try and fit as many of them in the same scenario, as much as they could be made somewhat compatible and plausible...
  10. Best and most likely path for Grossdeutchsland ?

    In the most recent row of discussions about Greater Germany and how to accomplish it, my PoV has been criticised as being too much Prusso-centric, and too neglectful of possible alternatives and the actual defects of a Prussian model that would get somehow expanded to Grossdeutchsland...
  11. 1940s Western leaders if no WWII

    While reading the "Explosion heard around the world" TL by Shaby, a question came to me: if WWII as we know it never occurs or is nipped in the bud in 1939-40, which Western leaders we may expect to take over in the 1940s ? Let's assume that WWII between the Axis powers and the Entente does...
  12. AHC/WI: swap the development paths of Europe and China

    The main idea of this scenario is that the OTL Common Era evolutionary paths of western Eurasia and eastern Asia are swapped, broadly speaking, as much as it may be plausible (assuming that geographical determinism is a totally fallacious and wrong concept). Some mandatory and optional events...
  13. Flag Request: USAO European flag

    As part of the ongoing development of my USAO signature TL, that world is at the beginning of its second world war (fought in the late 1890s - early 1900s, with early 1920s technology, between the Entente of the British Empire, Franco-Iberian Union, Russian Empire, and Turkey, and the Alliance...
  14. AHC/WI: Prussian-Hanoverian (but not Anglo) union

    Let's assume that by whatever odd mix of dynastic events, 18th century Prussia and Hanover get merged in one state, but the personal union of Britain and Hanover is averted. Let's also assume that if the scenario is feasible at all, OTL Prussian annexations of Silesia, Pomerania, and western...
  15. WI no independent Kuwait

    Let's assume that for various possible PoDs, an independent Kuwait does not exist in the 20th century, and it is an integral part of Iraq to the satisfaction of the international community. Possible PoDs a) a different version of the Anglo-Ottoman Convention of 1913 gets signed, which leaves...
  16. AHC/WI: Eurofederalist/Neo-Keynesian answer to the Great Recession in US and EU

    Let's assume by whatever PoDs necessary, as late as possible, that: a) The post-2008 Democratic President (who need not be Obama) and Congress majority muster a rather more aggressive Neo-Keynesian economic strategy to address the economic crisis: not so much political capital expended on the...
  17. Best alternative outcome for the Danzig crisis

    Let's assume that for whatever reason, to declare war to Nazi Germany alone is not an option that Britain and France may deem politically and strategically acceptable during the 1939 Poland crisis. They may either remain neutral in the German/Soviet-Polish war (e.g. Germany successfully...
  18. AHC/WI: Greater Israel, successful United Arab Republic, New Palestine

    Assume, by one or more PoD to be devised, occurring as late as possible, that all of the following events happen: * During the 1948-49 Arab-Israeli War, Israel wins a total military victory, leading to its annexation of the sum of OTL Israel and West Bank. Transjordan remains an Arab state...
  19. Centralization and success of the Staufen Empire: ways and means

    This is a topic that recently saw an otherwise interesting and productive discussion, but IMO was spoiled by an excessively strict and legalistic definition of the Hohenstaufen empire's borders. So, I'd like to reframe the topic: what would have the Staufen Emperors have to do in order to...
  20. WI USNA and post-British CSA

    One scenario idea I've cherished for possible not-so-near future TL development (see here for a previous discussion of the topic) is the following: PoD 1: Britain keeps both Florida and Cuba after the French and Indian War. PoD 2: Quebec and Nova Scotia side with the American Revolution...
