  1. Technological Development Without WWI

    The subject has come up in other threads, and there seems to be a notion among some that the absence of war would slow down technological development. I feel like we really need a thread for dedicated discussion on this topic. The details for how the Great War is averted is not of importance...

  2. Stalin Dies In 1936 - a test TL

    This is pretty much a test thread to see what you think about this idea, and how plausibly I set up the scenario, and what I could do differently. ---------- By Early 1936, Josef Stalin was in a position of incredible status. He had whipped the USSR into a major industrial power with the most...

  3. Most interesting Churchill death

    Churchill was close to dying quite a couple of time during WWII, as told from his bodyguard Walter Thompson. Suppose one of them succeeds, which one would have most interesting impacts? a) Knife-stabbing á lá pissed off Hélène de Portes b) Shot down by a Heinkel c) Any other risky flight...

  4. AHC: Make an European Union as influential as possible

    I write "an" because it might not be the European Union we know of, even though that's an obvious starting point. Soviet push into Europe goes way better might be an alternative? By "influential", I mean striving towards two things: 1) Push towards a full federation, turn it into an as real...

  5. A World Without Polynesians

    So, this idea popped up in my mind today. I used the search function and found this thread from 2007 and this thread, also from 2007, with a slightly smaller scope. Seeing as the Polynesia civilization often isn't discussed on this forum, I think that it is time to bring this topic up again. We...

  6. Alternate Outcomes of Diadochi Wars

    The aftermath of Alexander's death seems to be a quite unexplored area of alternate history. I'd like for there to be some suggestions of really cool and interesting scenarios - there seems to be a myriad of possibilities.

  7. Plausibility Check: No German Reunion

    I may be a bit controversial in saying that the so-called "reunion" 21 years ago is deeply regrettable event. I think it is deeply problematic that the "reunion" is treated as an obvious effect of the end of the dictatorship in DDR. Especially considering if it had been a real reunion, as a real...

  8. Ottomans and the Black Curse

    The resource curse refers the fact that countries despite having abundant natural resources, usually don't flourish economically, or flourish in any way whatsoever. Contra-intuitively, countries with abundant natural resources tend to have a worse economical development than countries with few...

  9. The Chilean Socialist Experiment: Cybersyn

    Hi, I wanted to draw attention to a particularly unknown part of Chilean history, that of Cybersyn. Basically, it was about how, through cybernetics, it would facilitate the transition to democratic socialism in Chile. The idea was that through a telex network the Allende government could...

  10. Sweden as a Great Power?

    I apologize if this has been brought up before, but I could not find anything relevant with the search function. As mentioned briefly in another recent thread, Sweden was a second-rate power acting as a great power. What could've happened to make that transition to an actual great power? There...
