    Why? What prevents the Austrians from messing up and getting Galicia occupied?

    A surviving Lord Kitchener in a Central Powers victory TL? Plausibility Check.

    Okay, why does the colonial empire immediately collapse? Britain seems to have the capabilities of defending it for the moment. And losing a colonial empire doesn't make people go right-wing immediately. Why does its economy collapse? It would have economic problems, but it wouldn't be in a...

    What would a successful Russian Republic look like?

    Without a whole civil war to fight between Whites and Reds, Poland and Finland have basically no chance of opposing the Provisional Government, I would like you to remember that despite still having a lot of other fronts to fight the Reds were defeated only trough a miracle. Bosporus being...

    A surviving Lord Kitchener in a Central Powers victory TL? Plausibility Check.

    It wouldn't, but then I have misunderstood your post, could you explain what you meant? Very similar to fascist, why does Britain have to go right-wing if it loses WW1?

    Russia and Germany as allies in an alternate WW1

    The reason they gave that many loans to Russia was because it was backwards and because some things (such as the railway network) needed to be done fast, AH isn't in that position so no reason to give them loans, it's just as asking why doesn't Britain give loans to France to develop Brittany...

    Russia and Germany as allies in an alternate WW1

    Germans might think that but in reality the railway network does not allow all the food Germany would ever need to transit from Ukraine/Southern Russia to Germany, especially if the railway network is less developed ITTL. First due to different politics the Balkan Wars would probably be...

    China as a Axis Supporter WWII

    If they're just a few agitators Stalin will see them as goners and the reason there were that many communists the whole time was because someone was sending them, here the CCP leadership is either captured or in exile. I was just saying that China even without the communists and Japan is...

    A surviving Lord Kitchener in a Central Powers victory TL? Plausibility Check.

    A more competent UK advisor to the Provisional Government does not make them win, they're still starving, with Bolsheviks growing and military defeats. The Provisional Government was doomed IOTL, you need to change something else to keep Russia in the fight. Let's say it's not the most likely...

    What if Admiral Bougainville found Eastern Australia in 1768, 2 years before Cook?

    I doubt France has the capabilities of holding this colony literally on the other side of the world with its far inferior navy compared to the British, the latter ones could take it during the ARW or in 1792.

    Consequences of the collapse of the Soviet Union for the Pacific War

    No, the Lend Lease was not a big price to pay for the US and UK in exchange for a stronger USSR which did most of the fighting trough the entire war, the UK will suffer more since now they're the only ones fighting the Axis in Europe until the submarine problem in the Atlantic is solved.

    Effects of Murat controlled Naples on Greece/Greek Revolution

    He sends a little bit of material support and not much changes, I doubt he has a navy able to defeat the Egyptian one. France, Britain and Russia decline/ignore, all GP had an agreement about keeping down liberals, category in which Murat enters as a former Marshal of Napoleon so he's not seen...

    Crusade of 1101 conquers Seljuk Anatolia

    They won't manage to conquer all of Anatolia, the best they can do is conquer a part of the Sultanate of Rum and give it to the ERE.

    Norman Guiscard invades Fatimid Egypt instead of Byzantine Empire

    They were especially horrible, as essentially all of Southern Italy (including the common people) tried to prevent them from becoming their rulers, which will not get them benevolent attention.

    Norman Guiscard invades Fatimid Egypt instead of Byzantine Empire

    The Normans were in conflict with the HRE because they backed the Pope against the Emperor and to create their kingdom they conquered ERE land in Southern Italy, if they're on an adventure in North Africa they'll at least have conflicts with the HRE and they will be in an even worse position...

    Consequences of the collapse of the Soviet Union for the Pacific War

    Because the vast majority of resources were taken when fighting the Soviets (80% of Germans forces in the early stages and never went under 60% in the entire war), the only significant loss of the Germans to the WAllies before D-Day was in North Africa in 1943, without having to fight the...

    Consequences of the collapse of the Soviet Union for the Pacific War

    No way Germany is defeated by 1945, without the USSR there is no way any D-day invasion succeeds and the British are going to have a lot of problems even beating Rommel.

    What if Lenin does not come up with national self-determination?

    Lenin used self-determination to get support from non-Russian minorities, even if he weren't to truly believe in it, it's the most logical choice for the Bolsheviks.

    Russia and Germany as allies in an alternate WW1

    Why? The whole point of investing in Russia was because they were backwards, AH is not so no reason to loan as much money as they gave to Russia. Russia perfectly shows that who you are allied to doesn't change your policies, just because they're allied to Britain and France absolutely does not...

    WI: Kühlmann's "Peace Kite" Flies, a Negotiated End to WWI in 1917?

    Historically the moment when Makhno retreats to Bolshevik territory was when their alliance ended as he agreed to ally himself with the Greens, the best case scenario for him is that their opponents exhaust themselves and the Reds support Makhno. And with a little bit of luck he can be a threat...
