    Why the Chinese play cricket (The Pax Imperialis)
    Threadmarks: Introduction

    VERY BELATED EDIT At the risk of thread necromancy. This version of the TL has been abandoned. While I think it is not too bad, certainly nowhere near as bad as my first two attempts, it did have some some serious issues which could not be fixed without a total reboot. The latest iteration can...
  2. DBAHC: A Polish Nation?

    1789 onward was an era of absolute Russian, Prussian, and Austrian dominance. After the Polish Partition of 1795, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was eliminated as a state. Despite Jan Henryk Dąbrowski's attempts to liberate Poland afterward, the boundaries of the Third Partition were...

    WI/AHC: Canadian Gallipoli

    The idea is somehow, for both World Wars, and between them, is to give Canada a Gallipoli in that the British cost the Canadians a untold number of live for little to no gain what so ever to a total defeat. In that afterward, it ruins Canadians view of the mother country, creates far greater...

    Chamberlain's Dream - From British Empire to Imperial Commonwealth (v2)
    Threadmarks: Introduction

    VERY BELATED EDIT At the risk of thread necromancy. This version of the TL has been abandoned. Personally I think this iteration is crap, not as b ad as the first, but still something I would not show to anyone myself. Things started improving with my next attempt, but that still has some...

    Chamberlain's Dream - From British Empire to Imperial Commonwealth

    VERY BELATED EDIT At the risk of thread necromancy. This version of the TL has been abandoned. For the exceptionally good reason I personally think it is utter crap. My next attempt was still crap too, but a little better. Things didn't really start improving until my third attempt, but that...

    Strong Commonwealth

    Is there anyway to have a strong commonwealth that puts the commonwealth first instead of U.S relations first for example commonwealth supports britian during suez crisis instead of pressureing them to back down or remaining silent.

    PC: Commonwealth Free Trade Zone

    I'm just wondering how plausible it might have been, in the event of the UK declining to enter the EEC (or being barred from doing so, as it had been at an earlier stage), for a Commonwealth Free Trade Zone to have been established. Would it have been possible? If so, what would the maximum...

    East of Suez: A Post War British Commonwealth TL

    ITTL we jerk the Commonwealth of Nations, and make it an organization with teeth as the cold war develops, without making it British Empire v2. The POD is appointing William Slim instead of Mountbatten as the last viceroy of India. Direct Action Day never happens and much of the violence of the...
  9. DBWI: Successful Partition of Poland-Lithuania?

    With hindsight, the Osteuropa Conspiracy, or the Prussian-Austrian-Russian attempt to partition and destroy the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, seems like one of the most hare-brained plans ever made. Poland-Lithuania was a great power, and while not at the height of its power like in the early...

    Cromwell has a better heir-how long does England stay a republic?

    If Richard "Tumbledown Dick" Cromwell had not succeeded his father as Lord Protector and in his place, a more capable leader became England's de facto king (maybe John Lambert?), how long would the Commonwealth have lasted? Was the Restoration inevitable? Would the position of Lord Protector...

    Why exactly was Charles II of England restored?

    i have a question, mentioned above. How come there was support for Charles II's restoration to the throne? -England was dominated by protestants, and Charles I's atrocities towards protestants were still fresh on most of people's minds. Why propel his own son back to the throne? -i get that it...
  12. Duelling Monarchs

    It's funny even though I think Operation Sealion or something similar is highly unlikely if not impossible I can't help but think about a world after it. In this case I'm wondering if it's possible that if the Royal Family is forced to flee to Canada during an invasion of of the British Isle's...
