  2. NOOBWI- British Empire still strongest country in the world

    OOC- Is an explanation as to what NOOBWI means still neccessary? IC- So what if the British empire was still the strongest country on earth, Would england have gone to the moon in 1969, would america launch a war to free the colonies. OOC- I'm undecided whether I'm a British or an American...

  5. Survivors (1970's British TV series)

    saw some of the episodes on YouTube- anyone seen this or heard of it. Premise is a killer virus is accidently unleashed on the world and kills something like 99% of the population, the population of Britain is reduced to something like 10 000 people.
  6. AH challenge- more racially tolerant US by WWII

    starting roughly around the turn of the century, how could we have a comparativly more tolerant United States by 1939- or at least be on the road to such a situation.

  11. Challenge- we saved your arse in WW3

    just reminded of this by a thread on the future in chat. what scenario could about so a Briton can say something like that to an American- it doesnt have to be 100% true. say SAS capture Osama Bin Laden or the main terrorist leader(s) in Iraq.
  12. Birmingham or Manchester host Olympics

    dont know whether this'll change anything in Britain- just maybe give UK more confidence if handled well and maybe raise the profile of Birmingham or Manchester. Birmingham bid for the 1992 Games Manchester bid for the 1996 Games and then the 2000 Games i guess London wouldnt get the 2012...
  13. AH Challenge: Japanese community in Britain

    Influenced by a Thread in Chat, about the TV show 'Life on Mar's' how could we get, in the 20th century a sizeable number of Japanese settle in the United Kingdom. Possibilties (1)Maybe even closer links during the alliance (2)above and continued links/alliance after 1920 somehow lead to...
  14. British government takes an 'Audit of war'

    A popular explanation for Britain's postwar decline seems to be that flush with victory- the British ignored the fundamental problems in its industry etc, while their future competitors rebuilt. Since i suspect they were aware of various flaws- especially given that they had been dependant on...

    i've heard it said that Atlee's economic policies were working untill Britain entered the Korean war and defence spending increased so..... what the title says.
  16. Franco-German Union after 1957

    :D :D because everyone's talking about this Franco-British Union thing . I get the impression that France and Germany have become Quite close since the Treaty of Rome establishing the EEC (hope i'm right on that). so can anyone see a way that those two countries may in fact merge into 1...

    anyone seen this, i dont think its been shown here yet. any good, what might've happened.
  18. 28 days later question- would Britain be abandoned/disbanded?

    say something like the events in 28 days later occured, would Britain (or just the infected parts be actually abandoned by the survivors/refugees and the remaining govt. would the remaining britons be considered Displaced persons or would they be forced back or left to rebuild even if the bulk...
  19. Plot against America

    anyone read this by Philip Roth, i liked it but dont know why the war went as OTL without the US in it till 1943, and the ending was somewhat strange to say the least
  20. anyone read this from Changing the Times?

    http://www.changingthetimes.net/samples/ww2/point_of_departure.htm Its a british win North Africa earlier TL, and i quite like it, only problem is the British have too much of an easy time- the RN isnt shown to lose any major warships during their engagements and thier victories in Malaya and...
