  1. Venice as an Ottoman Vassal

    Who's up for some brainstorming? Recently as I was browsing the forums, I stumbled on a thread discussing an Ottoman Victory at Vienna in the 16th century. In that thread, the question of Turkish control of the Mediterranean came up and it was noted that Venice would have to be dealt with...
  2. Vexillology in a United States with a Hohenzollern Monarchy

    Hello everyone. Long time no see! I just had a question for a timeline that I'm working on...answers will probably be mostly speculation, but I would like to hear any and all opinions regarding it. In my timeline, Prince Fredrick Henry of Prussia accepts the Congress' offer of Kingship and...
  3. Espadas y Mariposas: Revised Timeline

    Hello everyone. I've decided that I don't have the time to develop and cultivate a proper timeline from the ground up right now, so I have revised my only truly adequate TL instead. The results are a bit more plausible, a bit slower, and resulting in a global war between several interesting...
  4. Plausibility Check: Christianity Becomes the State Religion of Sassanid Persia

    Here I am again, stirring up trouble! This is something that, as a devout Catholic, I've thought about for quite a while. I know that much of the framework for the adoption of Christianity by the Roman Empire came with the reforms of Aurelian in pursuit of unifying the empire under his god Sol...
  5. Loyal Unto Death: TL Development Thread

    Hello Everyone! Long time no see! For those who do not know, I've been working on this idea for a while now, alongside many others, and now I want to get this TL started. The premise is simple: several of the British colonies in North America that rebelled OTL remain loyal. This new, loyal...
  6. AHC/Plausibility Check: Sienese Empire

    Here's your challenge friends, if you would humor me. I'm hoping to write a timeline following the development of a sizeable and powerful (though non-wankish) Empire emerging from the Republic of Siena in Tuscany. There are a few points that I was looking at exploiting, particularly the Battle...
  7. Plausibility Check: French Counterrevolution

    Hello to evereyone. Whilst investigating the War in the Vendee (an uprising of French Counterrevolutionaries in the wake of Robespierre's nationalization of the French priesthood), I noted that there is mention of the British facilitating the deployment of several thousand (even tens of...
  8. AH Challenge: Monastic State of the Teutonic Knights survives to the present

    Here's a simple AHC: Find a way to keep the Monastic State alive in a contiguous, Catholic, sovereign state indefinitely. Bonus points if it is at least a secondary European power. Popular government is acceptable to a degree, but the Order must retain the control of the executive and military...
  9. AH Challenge: Independent USA and Loyalist Colonies both surface

    Hello everyone! I'm in the process of finishing up a Japanese timeline that I'm working on, and a thought occurred to me: What if some of the 13 British Colonies successfully achieve independence while others remain under Loyalist control? What do you guys think might lead to such a scenario...
  10. Invittissima: The Rebirth of the Venetian Republic

    And thus it begins: I've returned to AH.com! Here is the piece that I've been working on for the past few months: Invittissima. Invittissima, to give some background, begins during the Five Days of Milan, one of many revolts against the Hapsburg Empire centring in the province of...
  11. Minor Revelations

    Hello eveyone. As you may have noticed, I've been silent for the past few days. I thought that AH would prove more therapeutic than it has been in the wake of the loss of my older brother...and I simply can't give my work the attention that it deserves right now. As a result, I will be spending...
  12. A Star Rises Over Russia: A Novgorod Timeline

    Hello Everyone! Those who knew me way back when I started here (not too long ago in fact) know that I've been planning this thread for a while. The Novgorod Republic had a chance to shine, and here is that chance! Please comment and offer advice/corrections! ~Askelion
  13. Stalwart Lion Redux: The Survival of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland

    Hello lads and lassies! Welcome to the newest development in my quest to make a realistic Rhodesian survival timeline. I hope that you all don't mind its earlier POD, and if you can't deal with ethnic Scots, Irish, Africans, and even (gasp!) Northern Rhodesians attaining positions of power in...
  14. The Lance of Poseidon: An Athenian Empire Timeline

    Hello everyone! As I've been easing out of grief for my late brother and back into writing, I finally decided to utilize an idea which was inspired by an earlier WI thread regarding the creation of an Athenian Empire. I began to ponder on the possibilities, and utilized two POD's to de-rail the...
  15. Nine Thousand Humble Lances: The Rise of the Order of Saint Lazarus

    Hello everyone! In response to rapid developments in the situation regarding my brother's death and burial (sorry for the surprise for those who don't know) I've decided to begin to post a TL that I've already had waiting in my hard drive until I begin to update things again. To indroduce...
  16. Hounds of Ares: A Thracian Empire Timeline

    In another attempt to introduce a little-known contender to the ancient world scene, King Cersobeptes of Odrysia, I've started this timeline. This Thracian warlord was bent on uniting the myriad Thracian and Dacian tribes into a single state, and hoped to create a small empire on the black sea...
  17. One Wrong Turn: The Rise of Austria-Hungary

    As I have previously stated in the thread for my New Spain timeline, I find it curious how many impressive countries seem to be sacrificed to the Idols of AH Cliche. Among those nations who I have constantly seen devoured (Ottoman Empire, Mexico, Canada, China) is Austria-Hungary. I personally...
  18. Askelion's Bazaar of AH Goodness!

    Hello Everyone! I have a great deal in store for you today! I present to you (because I like you, and know that you are a very smart customer) The AH Bazaar! Here, for a minor fee, I will give you: Links to my Timelines, as they become available. Links to my Stories, as they become available...
  19. Espadas y Mariposas: The Survival of (most of) New Spain {TL}

    First, of all, a brief intro. As a student of Spanish and Latin-American history, I have noticed several things in the region of OTL Mexico; primarily vested in missed opportunities. Those opportunities, in my opinion, were often caused by very narrow escapes of cancerous generals. So, in this...
  20. Lions and Butterflies: The Rise of Rhodesia

    Hello Everyone! After much work, and with help from the AH.com community at large, I've finally worked together my timeline for a surviving Rhodesia. This is my first true timeline and will continue until the modern day. At the conclusion of the proseless timeline, several stories told in the...
