Russia didn't have the industry to support a long-term war; they, like everyone else, assumed it'd be over quick. They had manpower, but not guns and ammunition for them; Germany, after crushing France with an encirclement through Belgium (it's called the von Schlieffen Plan, was deemed very...
So why is abolitionist Britain among the staunchest supporters of the Draka proto-Nazis? Why doesn't anyone have a problem with Draka conquering and enslaving a third of the world before the first book even starts, but instead think the comparatively moderate Nazis to be the scum of the Earth...
Should I request for it to be moved to ASB? The point remains, what would the history of slavery look like with these premises? Does it stay longer, and get spread to the new territories? Is there still a Civil War? Etc.
Of course.
For the hell of it.:D
I know (didn't they use the same fancy language when they discussed the transatlantic slave trade?). Still, my point was to render it completely unambiguous so it will actually require an amendment, as opposed to just a far-fetched SCOTUS judging (like "Separate but Equal" to justify racial...
Additional amendment as part of the Bill of Rights:
"Congress shall make no law, as to infringe on the right of the people, to own and buy Negro slaves, nor shall Government in any way seek to regulate, the treatment of slaves or bondservants by their owners; such matters, shall be left to the...
No, by my definition anything that is completely ridiculous wank and ahistorical author's fiat runs that risk. Can you honestly say you have read the Draka TL and don't see why it's ASB? IAN himself did a review of it that highlights some of the more obvious stupidities. Read that, and come back...
As noted, ASB, but very well.
Bomb Britain till they surrender, assuming the Germans can scramble anything capable of that at this stage. Same with Russia. Of course, I rather doubt they can keep this up against overwhelming enemy air power, but let's say they do.
Under these extremely...
Limited attack? This is before MacNamara's shit about "flexible response"; the US still has total retaliation as its policy. Nuking ANYTHING in CONUS will unfailingly result in The Big One. Wasn't this already said above?
That's just ridiculous; Germany didn't have enough coal to power all the plants it did have. Or rather, they had, but couldn't mine enough of it with the equipment and manpower available during the war. You'd have to at the very least cancel Barbarossa to get that to work, and it's still much...
No, no and no. It's not just the matter of the OTL Nazi atomics programme being a joke (as I and others have pointed out in numerous other threads). It's not just the matter of physics knowledge/engineering losses due to Jewish migration (which are usually inflated with hindsight, anyway, as is...
