  2. Could an Earlier Reconquista be Continued into Morocco

    Maybe Done already, navally Let's not overestimate human kindness :p They had plenty of opportunities to expand beyond the coast, and they didn't take them IOTL.

  3. DBWI: Japan was able to westernise in the 19th century.

    Early-mid 19th century ? We'll probably see (at least an attempted) Japanese naval empire of sorts. Its immediate rivals in the area are all backwards places. Russia can't project all that much power all the way across Siberia just yet— leaving only distant European naval powers- which could...

  11. Why weren't Hungary, Croatia and the like part of the HRE?

    The Habsburgs would rule those lands either way. The electors were already solidly on their side, with a long precedent for electing Habsburgs. They seemed to have had that handled pretty competently Not sure if I'd be worth it to somewhat increase their (already virtually guaranteed) odds...
