  1. Miscellaneous <1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    For question 1, Russia might be able to get away with it because the Austrians would not intervene for the Ottomans (at most, the Austrians would substitute Russian rule for Austrian and Romanian rule in the Danubian Principalities as in the otl Crimean War) and Britain and France would be too...

  2. WI: Egypt's Independence is Achieved Under Ali Bey the Great?

    It would be possible that Russia, with an independent Egypt under Ali Bey, could allow Ali Bey's Egypt to be invaded by the Ottomans in exchange for Russia being allowed to annex more Ottoman territories in 1774 than otl in 1774 (not very likely or the territories would have to be given to...

  3. Constantinople Agreement: Effects of an Imperial Russia controlling the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles from 1919 to the present?

    Eastern (Turkish) Thrace (including Edirne) would be Russian because that much of its small size from 1914 borders would be needed by Russia to defend Constantinople, the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles.

  4. Miscellaneous <1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    The Confederates wouldn't have to fight that much in Missouri and Kentucky and can devote resources elsewhere.

  5. Miscellaneous >1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    Survival of the Far Eastern Republic and a Strike North faction victory butterflying the Second Sino-Japanese War with Japanese support if the pod were in the 1910s or the early 1920s. With this pod occuring in the 1930s, the Japanese would not need to occupy French Indochina and could leave the...

  6. Constantinople Agreement: Effects of an Imperial Russia controlling the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles from 1919 to the present?

    It would be claimed by Turkey as a Russian enclave in Thrace and Anatolia and give Russia enough rights to sail ships into the Mediterranean from the Black Sea, Bosphorus and the Dardanelles for the effects on Russia. Since Russian control of Constantinople (and the Dardanelles) would mean...

  7. What if the USA National Origins Quota system of the 1920s *included* quota limits on western hemisphere nations too?

    Perhaps the Latin American nations might be able to take in tens of thousands more Jewish immigrants than otl due to Nazism and a few thousand more Spaniards due to the Spanish Civil War.

  8. What if Austria-Hungary detained Serbian Field Marshal Putnik on declaring war in August 1914?

    Without Marshal Putnik, Serbian resistance in the face of Austro-Hungarian attack would be significantly impaired. Likely to the extent of Serbia being knocked out of WW1 in 1914 in territorial sovereignty and its military.

  9. How could Nice and Savoy remained Italian (or technically Sardinian)?

    Have Italy try to win and succeed its 1859 War of Independence alone (if possible), lose 1859 but successfully fight the Italian War of Independence (and Revolution) of 1866 or get British support for Italy's 1859 War of Independence instead of French support for Italy's 1859 War of...

  10. Wiener Schnitzel Arrabiata - consequences of a summer 1918 Italian Victory at Vittorio Veneto

    Also, while the Isonzo defence line might have more defensible terrain and track records for the Austro-Hungarians, the Piave defence line might be needed for a shorter defence line and longer supply line-caused disruptions before Trieste and Vienna than the Isonzo defence line, in addition to...

  11. What if Romania joined the Entente in 1915 instead of 1916?

    Wouldn't Bulgaria's Second Balkan War experiences prevent Bulgaria from jumping into the Central Powers' side with Serbia, Greece and Romania in the Entente before 14 October 1915? As for Ottoman aid, the ongoing Gallipoli Campaign might be successful for the Entente or would prevent Ottoman aid...

  13. WI: Bulgaria, Romania & Greece all joined the entente in November 1915?

    Didn't Bulgaria join the Central Powers in October 1915 to gain Macedonia? By November 1915, it would be too late for Bulgaria to join the Entente unless the pod were Bulgaria backing out from the Central Powers and joining the Entente at the last moment.

  14. All three Yorktown-Class Carriers survive the Pacific War.

    Or Yorktown's survival at Midway with a pod of I-168 being sunk before torpedoing Yorktown and Harmann would mean USS Yorktown, despite severe damage, could put its remaining planes at Pearl Harbor before being repaired and those extra planes disembarked from USS Yorktown would mean USS Hornet...

  15. No Abdications of Bayonne. What happens?

    If the pod resulted in Spain and France being defeated in the Napoleonic Wars, what would happen?

  16. Could you end up with wars of Napoleonic totality and duration, even with a failed American independence war?

    Otherwise, any pod after French participation and Saratoga in the American Revolutionary War but which would lead to American Revolutionary defeat such as the Armada of 1779, the French fleet at the Chesapeake and the fleets' French ships being defeated in British-enforced blockades, an American...

  17. Could you end up with wars of Napoleonic totality and duration, even with a failed American independence war?

    I have answered yes to the question. The question can be answered by the following ways (by preventing France from participating in and winning the American Revolutionary War, even if France won one of the following wars below): 1) The Polish Crisis and the 1st Partition of Poland turning into...

  18. Railroad What If: Fates of the Pennsylvania Railroad, New York Central, and Erie Lackawanna without the Penn Central Merger
