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

    The companies who extract raw materials are the ones who profit the most from all of this as colony lost more money than they gave to the state.

    China as a Axis Supporter WWII

    Why would the KMT align itself with Germany? It seemed to me like Chiang was much more worried about China itself than some anti-communist crusade. What does Japan do instead? Does the civilian government control the military? That no, Chiang wants to remove colonial treaties on China...

    WI: Government of India Act 1935 introduced in 1919

    I'm not an expert but wouldn't the Indians still not be happy about having to fight WW2 (and famine in Bengal who will definitely break relations between the two) be enough to get independence? Britain has no way of maintaining India in its empire so they would probably still get independence...

    How powerful could Italy have become by 1940 if it wasn't run by a strutting buffoon?

    There might be an earlier WW2 or an German-Italian war over Austria.

    How powerful could Italy have become by 1940 if it wasn't run by a strutting buffoon?

    That's assuming Nap III gives his support to the Piedmontese when there is Murat-dynasty Kingdom of Naples and Murat and successors could champion themselves as the leaders of the Italian identity, who's more important half of the Italian Peninsula (who is under liberals ITTL) or the Kingdom of...

    Radically changing the world's religious landscape without butterflying away Islam

    The Sassanids can't take Constantinople, they didn't have a significant navy in the Med at all unlike the Arabs who still failed; which is precisely why Persia cannot win, they're also exhausted and any attempts at a quick end to the war will fail. Even if the Sassanids capture Heraclius around...

    Maybe the OP wants another fascist leader, who is more competent than Mussolini, in charge?

    Well at this point Makhno is the only truly independent military movement in Ukraine as there's either a German puppet or the Bolsheviks and Ukrainian nationalists and SRs do not have a serious military presence, so I can see him allying himself with them.

    What if Britain became communist before WW1

    ASB, Labour was a spin-off of the Liberal party pre-WW1 and there is no realistic way to make Britain go communist even with a 19th century POD.

    What If WW1 ended in 1916?

    With the Ottoman Straits open and US loans, the RE can last longer and we're still far from having a Bolshevik takeover. I'm not certain about this but didn't Wilson put some limitations on loans to the Entente so that when the US joins the Entente is bankrupt? Either way if the US joins in...

    How powerful could Italy have become by 1940 if it wasn't run by a strutting buffoon?

    It could certainly limit its reliance on France and GB for raw materials, have a better industry and have a better military leadership which is enough to not be constantly reliant on Germany (if they still are on the same side).

    Would the US recognise the South even if they won?

    I think they would since the Republicans wanted to preserve the Union at any cost, so the only way for the South and the Europeans to win is to crush the Union completely at which point they would have to recognize the South in the peace deal.

    What If WW1 ended in 1916?

    As a matter of fact regimes much more oppressive than the Tsar managed to exist for far longer than Nicholas' reign without doing any reforms. The RE while not the most stable of all was not an entity that would collapse on itself out of nowhere. And is not going to happen, the Revolution of...

    The Original and the Pretty Good Sequel are the best, but changing the 3rd to prevent the 4th is also interesting.

    What If WW1 ended in 1916?

    Not really, while very hated the Tsarist regime always managed to put down any attempt at revolt and without the Ottoman Straits blockaded more supplies can go to Russia, once the war is over while there will be some problems the population isn't as dissatisfied as during wartime, mainly because...

    What If WW1 ended in 1916?

    Slightly less harsh on Germany since the Entente suffered less. Probably, at that point the situation was still under control so an end to the war would mean they would be able to survive with perhaps a few concessions to ethnical minorities. They would lose important territories to the Entente...

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

    Until the point where the Kolchak team arrests them all, it is possible something changes with the Czechoslovak Legion but regardless of that the ultra-conservatives personified by Kolchak will never be able to collaborate for long with the SRs. And Makhno is irrelevant, he would only have a...

    AHWI: No schlieffen plan

    AFAIK the British Parliament had already decided to get involved in WW1 and only used the Schlieffen Plan as an excuse, so the declaration of war is delayed by a week.

    What if Alexander didn't try to invade India?

    Achaemenid Persia suffered for centuries from internal infighting and rebellious satraps, and it was a very decentralized state, any state of that size who tries to be centralized (which would be Alexander's goal if he doesn't go for any other conquest) would face a lot of troubles, not counting...
