    Alternate Football Wikis

    Cool stuff - it'd be interesting if Fiumana, despite owing its existence to the nationalist D'Annunzio, were to end up with a fan base way more tied to the city itself, than with Croatian or Italian nationalism, reveling in the city's status as an ethnic bukkake and making ample use of...

    AH - Italian Football - Butterflies in Milan

    Not even alternate history can keep supporters of Roman teams from trying to knife each other to death, but it seems like Capitolina might be the far right shitheel team here, and not Lazio. :P

    How could Nice and Savoy remained Italian (or technically Sardinian)?

    It'd be interesting to have an Italy whose northern border coincided entirely with the southern Alpine watershed: its border with France would be near identical to the post-1861 one, but its border with Switzerland would be shifted further north, since it'd include Ticino and quite a few valleys...

    Well, this sounds based. @Sen

    Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VII (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    I couldn't find anything about architectural nationalism on Wikipedia, what's that about, Bhutan-esque policies in urban planning?

    Can Switzerland be even bigger?

    When the plebiscite that transferred Nice and Savoy from Piedmont to France happened, while Nice wanted to stay under Piedmont (in fact, they tried to convince Garibaldi to represent Nice in the French parliament in order to force another plebiscite to undo the move), the Chablais and Faucigny...

    Diversity Maximized World Map | Atlas Altera

    Now this is amazing - Gene Roddenberry would approve, since it's got a more Star Trek vibe than most modern Star Trek series; if there's something I've noticed about modern science fiction, the utopian spirit that permeated those series until the 1990s (and that is still being pushed by Kim...

    Was the cultural split between Southern Europe and the MENA region inevitable?

    What if the Levant and North Africa became Islamized, but not Arabized? You'd probably need Islam to expand through trade rather than conquest, similarly to how it spread in Southeast Asia, and/or for the new Islamic ruling class to adopt the local culture(s) due to their pre-existing...

    How powerful could Italy have become by 1940 if it wasn't run by a strutting buffoon?

    I don't think a Cavour-led Piedmont would've let that happen; however, with Murat being more supportive of the rebellion than any Bourbon would've been, the war could've gone better for Italy, and it's possible that a federal setup (dominated by Naples and Piedmont) could've emerged - IRL...

    Zionism in New York: A Jewish home

    Yeah, I don't think any kind of ethnic takeover of any kind of pre-existing city or region would've gone well. One thing you could do, is to have a significant number of Jews settle a place that was nearly empty and quite underdeveloped IRL, basically what Zionists thought Palestine was, with...

    What other countries could have implemented Authenticite-esque policies?

    Maybe, one of the post-WWI proposals for an Assyrian state goes through, and the leadership of the new country tries to roll back a thousand years of Arab influence in just a few decades, even though most of this new Assyria's populace would be Arabic-speaking and Muslim. Going back to an even...

    Blue Skies in Camelot (Continued): An Alternate 80s and Beyond

    That's likely, if they remain in Formula One; that said, their status as the last of their kind, even more so than Williams (even today, they host events in which the fans can get very close to the cars, and they clearly have not forgotten their almost artisanal roots), would gain them quite the...

    Blue Skies in Camelot (Continued): An Alternate 80s and Beyond

    Galaxy-brained moment: Ayrton Senna and Giancarlo Minardi were so close, it's possible Senna could've driven for Minardi at some point in his future. Sure, he wouldn't be able to turn Minardi into a top team, but Senna knew the team needed money and talent to survive, so his stint at Minardi...

    AHC: Make Rock Music "Black" Again

    Speaking of crossovers, a hip-hop/punk crossover would make a lot of sense; and even if he didn't play punk, a surviving Kurt Cobain would probably be the right person for the job: he grew up in conditions that would've inspired a whole hip-hop discography had he been born black, after all, and...

    Redrawing Every Country's Subdivisions

    Some good ideas there, but the Veneto split is weird (especially since the historical divide was between the whole mainland, and the city of Venice itself), and I'd merge Basilicata and northern Calabria, too. To keep the number stable, I'd split off the province of Foggia from Apulia as...

    How could Nice and Savoy remained Italian (or technically Sardinian)?

    Galaxy-brained play - that was pushed forward, to no avail, by some actual inhabitants of Nice IRL: have Garibaldi, who spoke French natively, represent Nice in the French Parliament and push for a new plebiscite to re-annex Nice to Italy. Even more galaxy-brained play, perhaps it becomes an...

    AH - Italian Football - Butterflies in Milan

    That Batistuta/Rui Costa/Baggio trio at Firenze, holy shit. They all played for Fiorentina IRL but, never together, as far as I know. Milan seems like the most stacked team, however.

    The "South Park" war.

    The only thing that would save them, is a decisive push against extremism by the community but, given how quite a few people in Dearborn openly chanted "death to America" while in America due to recent events just a few days ago, that's probably going to cause a massive split inside the US'...

    How could Nice and Savoy remained Italian (or technically Sardinian)?

    Another early, feasible POD: when Napoleon rolls in, he annexes the whole of Italian-speaking Switzerland to his Italian domains, and not just Sondrio and its environs. Less feasible, but not that unlikely, Venice openly resists Napoleon - sure, the mainland would probably be occupied, but the...

    Plausible alternate borders in Europe post-WW2?

    Italy without South Tyrol, but with Istria; however, the Bulgaria/Yugoslavia merger goes through. Bigger East Germany, retaining all of Pomerania and Lower Silesia; however, Poland gets the OTL Kaliningrad Oblast.
