    WI: The Lego Group went bankrupt in the early 2000s

    Basically, Lego was in a bit of tough spot back in the early 2000s, and with a bit of luck and some reforms they pulled through. But what if they didn't and when belly up instead? Unlike today, the clones at the time were far less standardized (especially the chinese knockoffs), mainly because...

    What are the geopolitical implications of Hitler being captured and then executed at the Nuremberg trials?

    The general consensus that had Hitler being captured at the end of WWII, assuming that he simply wasn't just killed by the USSR in a show trial and actually handed over to be trialed at Nuremberg, that he would most likely get the death penalty and hanged like many of the top Nazi leadership...

    How much of our modern consensus of the inevitability of Allied victory in WWII is due to information after the fact?

    Basically the question is: in the darkest days of the war (June 1940-mid 1943) do the various countries of the allied powers actually know the true data of both themselves and the axis powers? I'm asking this question due to one of the usual attacks on any axis victory timeline (the self styled...

    DBWI: What if the American Civil War wasn't about state's rights?

    So as we all know the rather misnamed American Civil War, which almost led to the disintegration of the American Republic (though even then it's arguable that's also a misnomer, the structure being closer to a confederation) from which it did not really recover until the latter half of the 20th...

    How would history remember successful Anglo-French response to Nazi Germany's remilitarization of the Rhineland?

    Assume that said response is military in nature, though not necessarily involving large pitched battles (though maybe odd skirmish here and there), and that Hitler backed down (and his government falling in some years after due to economic issues while trying to redouble on rearmament for a...

    A history of the thousand year reich
    Threadmarks: Prologue

    Disclaimer: the usual blah blah blah, views of characters in timeline doesn't necessary reflect the author's views in a meta sense and all that jazz. If all goes well this timeline will cover a thousand years over the span of an entire solar system and more... (also if this ends up still...

    Differences between carriers

    The USS Ranger (the interwar period carrier) and the late World War II escort carriers had similar tonnage to each other. Yet despite this, they appeared to be different in most other respects. So, where did the tonnage of the latter go into?

    Could Nazi Germany defeat the US in a Cold War peacefully?

    So there's quite a few timelines where a Nazi Germany that was victorious in WWII ends up in a cold war against the USA. Usually those timelines ends up in one of the 3 conclusions: -nukes fly and everyone dies. -mostly conventional WWIII either ending in the conquest of the USA (the more ASB...

    WI: PRC remained marginalized?

    PODs: in which Nixon did not go to the PRC during the 1970s, and Taiwan's status as the legitimate China is maintained. As such there was no major foreign investment and trade after death of Mao. How would things change? I figure that exodus of industries from the developed countries would...

    What would be the effects on European cultures & societies in the event of a WWIII in the 1960s?

    Based on some old book I read a long time ago so I don't remember the title or anything, and yeah thread title is a word salad. I remember reading about it mentioning that if WWIII broke out in the 60s (the usual nukes fly and people die kind of thing) Europe would most likely suffer a lot (mild...

    Who'll fold/collapse first in a Fascist Soviet cold war?

    (yes I have checked if there were other threads with this type of premise and have found none, then again I didn't try really hard or anything) So in a lot of timelines in which the Western democracies face off against various cocktail of Axis powers (some just a Nazi empire, some also tack on...

    WI: Second Polish Republic Gets their Naval Wish list?

    Probably very close to ASB, but this is rooted in some actual historical facts... So what if by a miracle of diplomacy the Poles actually receive all those ships? (Perhaps the Western democrices in this timeline wanted a strong Poland to check potential German & Russian ambitions in the...
