  1. WI: Kühlmann's "Peace Kite" Flies, a Negotiated End to WWI in 1917?

    Peace terms were already being floated in 1917 and Italy felt she should get a great deal out her commitments. If it looks like her allies are about to sacrifice her for their own ends then Italy would be tempted to carve her own path to peace.

  2. WI: Kühlmann's "Peace Kite" Flies, a Negotiated End to WWI in 1917?

    -Kuhlmann attempts peace proposal with French counterpart and/or Briand -London and/or Washington get word of this but due to miscommunication come to the conclusion France is trying to seek a separate peace -Austria feels the diplomatic vibe and the new Emperor also decides to send out peace...

  3. What if Japan and Italy fought in World War I on the side of the Central Powers?

    Japan might be just enough of a Central Power in this ATL to get a seat at the negotiating table and grab a few concessions/colonies without putting herself at too much risk. French Indochina and Pacific island holdings would probably be the most likely targets along with northern...

  4. What if Japan and Italy fought in World War I on the side of the Central Powers?

    With Italy on their side the Austrians just got a *lot* more manpower to deal with Russia and the Balkans, also freeing Germans who have to tend to or outright direct Austrian forces at different points. France now has Italy directly threatening her in the South as German forces encroach from...

  5. Alternate History: Explain the historical event

    In Operation: Final Cut, Prime Minister Uruquhart decided to convince Queen Elizabeth to announce a diplomatic mission with Prince Charles being sent to Iran and Afghanistan to build faith and achieve a reproach with the West, crwating accusations that he sought to play the king amidst a...

  6. Korea,Indochina under Nationalist China

    A united and free Korea under Chinese KMT supervision likely industrializes later and less so than OTL South Korea. She is effectively part of the Chinese Sphere of influence and remains that way for most of a generation before trying to regain her independence. China probably drags their...

    Thank you

  8. The Horrors of the (Alternate) Second World War

    XXVIII. New Technologies Technology during the war improved radically from its start in 1939 until its conclusion in 1953. The introduction of the transistor in 1946 would radically shrink electronic systems and improve computing capabilities. Radios a fraction the size of the old tube sets...

  9. The Horrors of the (Alternate) Second World War

    XXVII. Operation Calamari By early 1949 the stage was set for Operation Calamari, the long-awaited multi-prong invasion and liberation of the British Islands. German divisions prepared seaborne defenses alongside their British Action counterparts but a series of tactical nuclear strikes and...

  10. The Horrors of the (Alternate) Second World War

    XXVI. Operation Templar While Operation Kimchi was named for a Korean dietary staple and soon turned into an inside joke about fresh things that got buried, rotten, and utterly transformed in the process, the initial phases of Operation Templar - the Allied landings in southern Europe - were...

  11. The Best Video Games Never Made

    première Guerre mondiale Paradox Studios, 2011 Welcome to what began as a mod for Hearts of Iron 3 and eventually morphed into its own game. The year is 1819 and the Napoleonic conquest of Europe is complete following the successful conclusion of his campaign using Ireland as a jumping off...

  12. Spanish conquest of the Pampas

    Have another power express interest in it during the late 17th century and force the Spanish to settle/develop the region a lot more. They need a reason to go there and potential loss to a rival is as good as any.

  13. WI: a diferent Pedro II of Brazil

    Depends on his specific reactions to specific events. Argentina might expand beyond its borders to take over Uruguay, Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catalina, Parana, Paraguay, and maybe other areas. Maybe Brazil unites the continent in his lifetime. Or it could succumb to civil war and divide into...

  14. Effect of SS Great Eastern on Union blockade

    Discussion of having the SS Great Eastern run cotton from Savannah to the UK we're held but came to naught. For those not familiar with the SS Great Eastern this ship is perhaps 50 years ahead of its time in some regards and capable of cargo loads over 13,000 net registered tons. Assuming...

  15. Alternate History: Explain the historical event

    After the assassination of FW deKlerk in 1990 and his replacement by a junta of Afrikaners bent on expansion by force, the puppet Prime Minister Janusz Walus officially took responsibility for the 1992 invasion of Namibia, the 1995 overrun of Botswana, and the 1999 takeover of Mozambique. The...

  16. American city (other than NYC) or state with mass transit comparable to Europe or Japan

    Perhaps our viewers might not be as familiar with other cities mass transit options as you and I are. I found WMATA (Washington DC Metro) more limited than you do, at least on the southern side of the metro area. Boston also has its limitations in comparison to Europe and Japan. Both are...

  17. American city (other than NYC) or state with mass transit comparable to Europe or Japan

    Have an American city or state with a reliable and self-sustaining mass transit system comparable to Europe or Japan by the time of the COVID outbreak. Bonus - have it all built *after* World War II

  18. Brazil builds dreadnoughts

    *The Empire needs to last a while longer with the Emperor/Empress deciding this is a priority *Focus nation-building and industrialization around this as a rallying point - "Great nations must be able to build their own Great Navies"! or somesuch *Will still take 20+ years to achieve, maybe...

  19. WI: Portugal funds Christopher Columbus?

    Suspicion of a Portuguese discovery or confirmation of much much older discoveries by any number of explorers are possible. Andrea Bianco's map from 1447 given the description of how to reach the 'Ixola Atlantica' (spelling?) are very interesting. Especially given his involvement in the Fra...

  20. Alternate Cinematic Disasters

    Yeah but then the premise of how the Vulcans take over Earth after Kennedy sleeps with a stranded member of their Explorer Corps results in a 'diplomatic misunderstanding', especially after the Vulcan ship pushes Earth tech ahead enough to let Khan Noonien Singh actually land troops on Vulcan...
