    Modern Mongolia - TL Research Thread

    POST INDEPENDENCE MONGOLIAN (ALT)-HISTORY THREAD I'm creating this thread as a compilation of information, sources, research and timelines for Post Independence and Late Qing Era Mongolia based alternate histories. This is a super niche topic with barely any English academic research so my...
  2. Where do the American coal wars start and why?

    So picture the 13 colonies gaining independence in the American Revolution, but instead of ratifying a new Constitution to replace the Articles of Confederation, the disagreements over the Bill of Rights are too great to be overcome and the federal experiment ended right there. Suddenly all the...
  3. Existing Planets, Stars and Solar System Maps, Basemaps and Mapmaking Resources

    I noticed that there wasn't a thread for maps based off of just existing objects. The Alternate Planets, Suns, Stars, and Solar Systems Thread is mostly OC content and the Map Threads are congested and hard to navigate. This thread will act as the main place to post alongside the latter and will...

    Alternate Ideologies
    Threadmarks: Alternate Ideologies

    This is a thread for Alternate Ideologies (preferably those that appeared in the mid 1800s-early 1900s, so modern/industrial ones). The ideology could be an alternative/analogue to an existing ideology, an ideology that could have arisen at the time, an OTL ideology that could have gained more...

    The most optimal borders for Europe

    Excluding the ethnicities from the discussion, what would the ideal borders for various European countries be? What interests me is having most of Europe as developed as it's possible.
