  1. When Was The Last Time His / Her Majesty's Government Meant Something?

    A long time ago, I commented about wondering when the last time a British monarch had any REAL power within his government. It is "HIS / HER Majesty's Government" but that's not really true, the Prime Minister and Parliament has the real power. The time HMG is just a symbolic sign of respect for...
  2. First Monarch Of An American Empire?

    Ever since I saw the Royal Wedding, this thought has been in my mind. I remember reading some previous threads on the topic of an American Monarchy and the whole recent circumstances has brought this interest back to me. Everyone has their own views on how an American Monarchy could form, but I...
  3. Partition: India, Pakistan, (Bangladesh) and Hyderabad

    What would have to happen, for a present day India..Pakistan..Bangladesh and Hyderabad that was not annexed into India in 1948? How would the situation in Southern Asia be? Worse? Better? Would this region be unstable like Pakistan? Or would it come to be stable like India? I'm thinking that a...
  4. Islamic Philippines?

    I once heard that this could have possibility happened,in the fact that Islam reached The Philippines before the Spanish brought Christanity to the islands when they took over. Would it be a strech for Islam to remain the dominant faith in the Philippines? Like Indonesia? How would a mainly...
  5. The British Southeast Indies (British Indonesia)

    I once made a game in the Small Worlds forum in which one possibility was that the British took the Dutch East Indies at some point,and intergrated it as part of Australia. I remember reading of the theory somehwere on this forum,and that's where I got the idea from. But it was just a single...
  6. Neither American or Canadian: The Nation Of Cascadia

    When I was looking for information about a timeline video I was making,I came across information about a proposed nation that would be in the Pacific Northwest. Cascadia...the idea was really interesting. But I soon thought about it,and how such a nation could come to be..I came up with two...
  7. Guess The Scenario (Pre-1900)

    I sort of got the idea for this "game" by looking at the "Countries Of An Alternate World" thread. The idea is this,a person can put up a map..or part of a map..where the country or countries are different from the same country in OTL. There is only one rule,every scenario needs to take place...
  8. Challange: Turn The American Invasion Of Canada (Quebec) In 1775 Into a Victory

    Early in the American Revolution,the idea was to take Quebec. This was for a number of reasons,I remember one key reason was that the British was using the region to attack the upper American colonies..and to resupply their own forces..and the Continental Army wanted to prevent this. So the...
  9. Korea NOT Annexed By Japan In 1910?

    In this year,Korea was annexed by Japan 100 years ago. It has been said that this event,is what caused Korea to go downhill..and was one of the factors that ended up with the country divided between North and South. I can imagine the idea has been asked about before..at least I think so. But...
  10. French New Zealand

    I've heard that one reason why the British took control of the island that would later be called New Zealand,was to stop a French advancement or interest in the area of the Pacific at that time. Would it be so far to imagine that France possibly could have beat England to the punch and claimed...
  11. The Japanese Invade and Occupy Australia In WW2

    I remember hearing that there was a fear in Australia of being invaded and occupied by the Japanese. The Japanese reach was nearly all of the Pacific and Southeast Asia,along with the eastern portion of China. The Japanese even bombed Darwin,Australia..so was this really possible? What would...
  12. British (Canadian) Alaska

    When we look at maps,we always see Alaska as the portion of the USA that's at the northwestern most part of North America. Is it so possible to imagine Alaska being a region of the British,and later handed over to Canada? Could the British have taken Alaska from the Russians,and just had it as...
  13. The USA Takes Control Of Vietnam?

    In the Graphic Novel,Watchmen..the USA wins the Vietnam war..and takes control of the country..actually making it the 51st state. A rather interesting view of things,in my say. But how realistic is that? Indeed,the USA could have possibly won the war..but take control of the country? What...
  14. The Kingdom Of Quebec/Le royaume du Québec

    When we think of Quebec in alternate history,we usually think of Quebec as being part of the United States Of America. I was talking with a French friend of mine,when the topic came up. The idea is that Quebec is either under British and later Canadian control..or it breaks ranks and joins the...
  15. The British Empire Abandons Its Claim On Australia?

    Partly motivated by the India thread I made here,another thing that I found odd..was the British situation with Australia. Here was land claimed by the Empire,but was never really colonized by England. It sort of just was the place where British prisoners were sent after the American Colonies...
  16. Which Empire Could Have Survived To Today?

    Well,this is something that I have been thinking about for a while. Could some Empires have survived to today,if things have been done differently..or decisions have been made sooner or later? This is the question,the poll has some Empires that I may have thought could have survived to today...
  17. Which Chinese Dynasty Could Survive In Modern Times?

    Partly because of the thread I made here,on the topic of China in the early 20th centaury. The topic was brought up when I was speaking with a few friends of mine,we threw some ideas about how a Chinese Dynasty could survive to today. Not just survive,but thrive in another good point. Now there...
  18. India Never Part Of The British Empire?

    Well,I always thought it was sort of odd that India was under the British Flag for so long. A country as old,and as prestigious as India..under the control of a European power? So I was thinking,how would it be possible for India not to be under British control at all..and what would that be...
  19. The Palestinian State and The Revived Kingdom Of Israel

    We all know about the conflict between Palesteine and Israel,how both "nations" argue about who should occupy the land now. But was there a time in history that either nation could have existed,one of them..or even both with international agreement..basically every nation aknowlages their...
  20. Harada Timeline 1775-1899| What Could Have Been,What Should Have Been..

    Well,I'm not usually one who writes time lines. I've made a lot of games in the Sandbox, that deals with variations in history and what could have been..and what should have been in some cases. When I do these sorts of things,I like it to be as real as possible..and as down to earth as possible...
