  1. Hail, Britannia: A New History

    Given the enlarged nature of Montenegro paired with its association with the Italians through the Latin Monetary Union, there's probably a high chance for disagreement between the Serbs and the Montenegrins, especially if there's an attitude among the latter (or at least, an attitude among the...

  2. Hail, Britannia: A New History

    Given that the 2024 map has Serbia as a republic, assumedly there was a similar transition from Vozhddom to Republic at some point per the Abridged History of Modern Serbia from the original thread (though what that transition looks like in this version of Hail, Britannia only Leinad knows, plus...

  3. Hail, Britannia: A New History

    Man, that Balkans just made me audibly go "what the fuck," it's wild! Based on the Latin Monetary Union, it looks like Montenegro, Albania and Aromania are all firmly in the Italian sphere of influence, and you've also got the 1915 Treaty of London-tier vibes with direct ownership of parts of...

  4. King Theodore's Corsica

    Even if Carp hadn't intended as such, I could imagine that becoming a question for historians later in the timeline's future.

  5. Greco-Buddhism in the Hellenistic / Roman Mediterranean

    There is no reason to assume that a potential Greco-Buddhism would've been adopted explicitly only by Stoics. There have been discussions over the potential overlap Epicureanism had with Buddhism, for example, and a syncretization between Epicureanism and Buddhism could've prevented the severe...

  6. When you Wish Upon a Frog (Book II of the Jim Henson at Disney saga)

    Three years and so much has changed in that time, but plenty has stayed the same too. What an end to a legendary timeline! I don't consider myself that good at thank yous, so I'll keep it brief: Thank you Geekhis for this TL. A lot was learned about OTL pop culture when contrasted and compared...

  7. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    There actually has been a lot of discussion about the construction of a (Danube-)Morava-Vardar/Axios Canal, and the idea even existed in the period, as can be seen in the 2018 journal article 'The idea of Morava-Vardar water canal and its long-term geopolitical context.' So regardless of whether...

  8. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    Assuming a rump Albania is left, and isn't tied to Greece, the original pitched plan for a border was between the Drin and the Aoös, so with the loss of Ulcinj to the Montenegrin and with it the loss of the original preferred port per earlier Serbian plans, that does leave Shëngjin as the most...

  9. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    You can always toss them into the reserves, I guess. But you know, sometimes I forget the roots of today's Zastava Arms go back to 1853, when the Topolivnica factory in Kragujevac was established. Makes me wonder whether Topolivnica will grow to the same prominence it did OTL, though the...

  10. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    Woo, let's go! And congrats on 100 Chapters! It's fun seeing the earlier proclamation of the Kingdom of Serbia, that's likely to impact the long-term prominence of the Obrenović dynasty. And we're getting the Balkan League we were denied OTL, so exciting! This is going to be a shocker of a war...

  11. When you Wish Upon a Frog (Book II of the Jim Henson at Disney saga)

    Seeing this post finally show up is a bit bittersweet, given the previously planned double-feature mentioned. If nothing else, I'm glad we managed to get one more post featuring Yugoslavia out in the core threads before the end.

  12. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    One could make the argument though that with Serbia getting the territories it wanted in Northern Albania per Ilija Garašanin' Načertanije ("For the present, the only [sea ]route possible[ as to provide Serbia a port and free its foreign trade from Austrian hands] is the one which leads through...

  13. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    Is the dream of the OTL ill-fated First Balkan Alliance finally going to be realized TTL? Because this sounds a lot like that! I can only imagine how giddy Prince Mihailo Obrenović will be at this development.

  14. WI - First Serbian Revolt succeeds

    Randomly got linked this thread, and golly! As an advocate for a successful Ičko's Peace TL, or rather, a TL that involves the Russians to a lesser degree than OTL, per my signature, this is quite an interesting scenario. Part of the reason why I find an Ičko's Peace scenario so interesting is...

  15. When you Wish Upon a Frog (Book II of the Jim Henson at Disney saga)

    Hm, if this is indeed the case, then that should definitely be corrected then. Arn Anderson and Barry Windham could likely squeeze on by, but otherwise you are right; the only true reason WCW comes out of this alive is arguably due to Turner's will and willingness to see it start from scratch...

  16. When you Wish Upon a Frog (Book II of the Jim Henson at Disney saga)

    An excellent Synopsis by Mollusk! The only thing that I caught my eye, due to having nearly forgotten the fact it was kept TTL, was the invocation of the Big-Lipped Alligator Moment, as while the moment itself can be kept, the term is rather idiosyncratic in origin OTL. Reading all this though...

  17. When you Wish Upon a Frog (Book II of the Jim Henson at Disney saga)

    What a great logo! Having Florida become a center of anime dubbing in North America would be interesting to see! Based on the links I shared, Miami's had a scene since the 50s, and all the OTL studios seem to be based there too, but given Disney, I imagine RBC's in Orlando? Or perhaps a third...

  18. When you Wish Upon a Frog (Book II of the Jim Henson at Disney saga)

    Beautifully dense and concentrated, not just for Sailor Moon, but for the effects it has for the anime industry (and even beyond it, given we finally have confirmation of Masked Rider appearing in Eisner's corner)! With CapsuMon (honestly that name is not as marketable as Pokémon, sheesh...

  19. When you Wish Upon a Frog (Book II of the Jim Henson at Disney saga)

    Chiming into the Schneider discussion, firstly, I don't recall there being a mention of the Amanda Show so far in the timeline, and searching Geekhis' posts proved inconclusive, so please try and cite things within the timeline and avoid relying on your memory. Secondly, let's recall that...

  20. When you Wish Upon a Frog (Book II of the Jim Henson at Disney saga)

    The mention of the Matsumoto Sarin attack has been worried for what's to come with Aum Shinrikyo, so I'll instead turn my attention to something else. The Captain Planet Coalition is decidedly cheesy, and I love it for that alone. With Columbia acquiring ICE, with its links to Lord of the Rings...
