What TL hasn't been done that you would like to read?

HIM Dogson

A good one would be one with a surviving Qing China. I've seen so many TLs where they get royally screwed over (Look to the West, Decades of Darkness) that I want to see the House of Aisin-Goro survive to the modern day for the hell of it.

Alexander as Ashoka.

Alexander the Great living long enough and conquering more land. He eventually becomes the equivalent of Ashoka and realizes the pain he has caused and converts to Buddhism, (due to returning to India a number of times) propagating it throughout his Empire. His dynasty last long enough for a Greco-Buddhist faith and culture to become the most common type from the Pillars of Hercules to the Gange, long after the empire has fallen and divided.

One where the American revolutionary war is crushed, the founding fathers are hung like dogs and the British successfully ensure that the colonies never rebel again. I don't think that's been done. Could be interesting.

actually, it's been done many times, just usually as a one-off episode in American TV shows that have a humorous slant and are therefore loaded with annoying British stereotypes. ("Oh, if Britain won the war? Obviously every American has to have a Cockney accent and there's gotta be a replica of Big Ben and London Bridge in the middle of this random field and all the police have look like Buckingham Palace guards!")

One where James Madison dies in 1783, leading to a failed Constitutional Convention and a fracturing of the United States.
 

frustrated progressive

Belisaurius accepts the Goths' offer in full faith, declaring himself Emperor of the west. Due to Justinian's paranoia leading him to purge Narses and the other competent generals, the restored empire of the west survives, and eventually beats off the Lombards. Byzantium becomes Monophysite.

I am considering doing a TL in which during the Bonshin War, the Daimyo of Satsuma becomes disillusioned with both the Emperor and the Shogun, and goes on to declare a Republic and with heavy American support and a much prolonged Bonshin War, the Republic rules over all Japan.

But for something I am looking for? Communists win over the German elections of the 1930s, Hitler is killed like a dog, and Germany becomes a socialist state aligned with Russia. World War 2 shall be very different.

A few ideas...

-Xerxes manage to conquer Greece (e.g: no storm to crush his supply fleet) 150 years later, the Persian empire collapse from overextension. The former satrapy of Greece re-emerge as an unified country rather than the collection of warring city-states it was before.

-Queen Zenobia's Palmyre wins it independence war against Rome. (I would love this one. )

-Phillip II of Macedon survive assassination, achieive total control of Greece (looking at you, Sparta) before sending his son Alexander to further conquests... many possibilities.

-A Vietnam wank. (ancient or medieval Vietnam, not communist Vietnam)

-Ibn Battuta discover America around 1360. Maybe after he heard an old Norse legend about a mysterious "Vinland"...
