  1. Challenge:Logical Central Asian Borders

    Seeing as how Stalin made a total and utter(albeit deliberate)mess of Central Asia's borders....what would more logical borders look like? And what POD could achieve Central Asian borders that didn't actually look like a jigsaw puzzle:rolleyes:?

  2. Idea: A thread for the winning and runner up maps from(all of) the Map contests?

    Well? A good idea? Simply so as too make them easier to find, not just contest three's but the first and second ones as well. I was searching for them(fro mcontest one and two) a couple of days ago, and they are simply to awesome to be lost in the dusty back corridors of AHB&M. The map...

  3. DBWI: And its time for our semi-monthly D-Day debate!

    Well, I suppose we've thrashed this out enough...but still, I couldn't resist. Is it plausible, in any way, for the D-Day operation to succeed? And if it was a success, is it at all plausible for the Western powers campaign into France to be any thing of a success? What would be the probable...

  4. The Ottomans move East

    Based on what B Munro said on the Persian thread, and the suggestion that it needed a new thread......(my apologies if i'm going over the top with the threads;))... What would happen if the Ottomans were to conquer Persia, and focus on Eastern conquest, as opposed to the conquest of Hungary...

  5. Challenge: Maximum Persian cultural sphere

    In a similar vein to my other thread... how could we have the Persian cultural sphere, in terms of language(both as a primary language, and a language of trade, politics etc.) as well as "Persian" cultural traits reaching their maximum possible extent as of 2000, with a POD no earlier then 1500...

  6. Best Case Scenario for the Turkic world?

    Well? How could we see the maximum extent of Turkish Language, and maximum extent of some identifiable "Turkish culture", by 2000 AD? Ideally, such a world shoul be no more then 100 years behind or ahead of OTL's developmental level... Bear in mind that an Ottoman wank may not neccesarily...

  7. Italy in the CP:CP defeat....

    We see a lot of TL's or what if's positing the terms if Italy were to join the CP, and the CP emerged victorious.... So WI Italy was to join the CP in declaring war on the allies, and the CP was still defeated as in our TL, with Russia collapsed and the US a member of the allies.... What...

  8. Hungarian victory at the battle of Trencin

    Would Hungary end up independant in this scenario? Would their be any effect on the war of Spanish succesion? Or would the Hungarians get thrashed sooner rather then later? Would it bring Prussia into the war on Hungary and France's side...

  9. What would the "CP" refer to themselves as if they were victorious?

    Simple. I have a feeling they might refer to themselves as the allies, seeing as the victorious alliance, throughout history, has tended to do that. OTOH, I'm not quite sure if the Germans and Turks refer to themselves as the "CP" even now...though with American cultural dominance, they probably...

  10. Likelihood of Communism

    How likley was it, retrospectively, for a philoshopy like communism to emerge? Simply, from around 1700 OTL, was it likely within the scope of most plausible TL's not involving massive setbacks in human development for something like it to emerge? Or would it be considered an anomaly in most...

  11. Challenge:The Porte at the Congress

    With a POD no earlier then 1795, have the Ottoman Empire represented as one of the "big powers" at the Congress of Vienna, or a similar "congress". The said congress should still involve a Napoleonic defeat(thus, he cannot be butterflied away), and adopt the balance of power as its main element...

  12. Spanish Flu and WW1

    Given the devestation wrought by the Spanish Influenza, would it be remotely possible for WW1 to last into 1920 or beyond?

  13. KOREA RISING- Planning Thread

    Firstly, if this would be better placed in shared worlds somewhere(as was my original inclination) my apologies. However, as it is supposed to be a structured TL (with a hybrid prose/raw timeline style, not unlike the Chaos TL) This is intended to be a planning thread for a joint TL between...

  14. Latin American Apartheid states....

    That thread about a British Mexico and Peru, and the possibility of it evolving into a class system, got me thinking.... WI one of Britains campaigns against Latin America is succesfull, and its siezes...say central America, including Panama, from Spain. Assume that they gain it at the...

  15. Alternate WW1 Map thread

    Not sure whether this is a good idea or not, but given the perpetual popularity of debating the result of alternate WW1 results/beginnings, I present to you the ALTERNATE WW1 MAP THREAD. For posts of scenarios relating to WW1, before, after and during......:):):) (By the way, if this should be...

  16. Portuguese colonies partitioned......

    What circumstances could lead to this? It was considered OTL by Germany and Britain, so could it have actually occured? Would any other colonial powers involve themselves? What would be the said territorial gains?

  17. WI Brunei and Singapore were Malaysian?

    What effect would having the wealthy oil reserves of Brunei and the valuble port of Singapore have on the Malaysian economy? Yes, they got rid of Singapore OTL because of its "Chineseness" but perhaps Brunei would balance that. OTL Malaysia is economically and industrially succesful, with...

  18. Napoleon doesn't invade Spain

    WI, instead of (foolishly in retrospect) invading Spain, already a French ally/sattelite, to install his brother on the throne, Napoleon concentrates on defeating Austria, and later Russia? Would his chances of victory in the Napoleonic wars be higher? What effects would this have on military...

  19. WW1 starts over the Morrocan conflict

    How would such a war progress? Could conflict with GB be avoided? Who would be the major combatants? Could Germany win the war? On the continent and/or on land.

  20. A very odd WW1 German Victory map

    With what POD could the Central powers emerge victorious with these territories? (It seems a bit exaggerated I know, but apparently this was considered a pretty accurate prediction among the French public) This propaganda map was published in French magazines, but could it have been possible.
