    All on the tin, folks. With a POD of whenever you would like, have the Habsburg dynasty assume the Crown of France.
  6. AHC: Franco-Spanish Union

    Carried over from a rather bumbling thread I started. Your AH challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to unite Spain and France under a single ruler (if not necessarily a single government). I could easily see such a union spurring (or preserving) the Anglo-Dutch union. The Habsburgs are...

  11. The 11 Nations of North America

    So I'm currently reading the excellent "American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Culture Of North America" by Colin Woodard. It's excellent so far, and I was wondering if anyone around here was familiar with it. Here's Woodard's map of the "11 Nations." Here's a brief on...
  12. AHC: America Wins the War of 1812

    All on the tin folks. Have the United States secure a territorial gain and decisive victory against the British in the War of 1812. Best of luck, chaps; Jefferson didn't leave Mad Jimmy much of a military to fight with.
  13. WI: Iapo-American War in the '20s-'30s?

    All on the tin. What could lead to a war between Japan and the United States in the 1920s or 1930s? What would such a war look like, who would the leaders be, strategies, homefront effects, etc, etc. I suppose there's the Panay Incident, but that seems a bit old hat, so bonus INTERNET...
  14. WI: POTUS Thomas B. Reed, 1896

    So let's say that Mark Hanna gets hit by an automobile or trolley car sometime before the Republican convention of 1896. Tom Reed gets the nod and goes on to trounce Bryan in the November election. What does a Reed presidency look like? Potential running-mates/cabinet appointees? Foreign policy...

  18. WI: Dems Don't Split in '60?

    All on the tin. What if the Democratic Party had remained united in the election of 1860 instead of splitting into Southern and Northern factions? Does Lincoln still win, or is Dem unity enough to keep the White House for another four years?
  19. AHC: Second American Civil War
