Here are some of my thoughts. The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer will probably be the most useful, in helping the Nazis spot the tactical and intelligence errors they made between 1942 and 1943 Manhattan Project: The Story of the Century by Bruce Cameron Reed will be the...

This one is inspired by Marvel Universe #1 In April 1942, a German Field Marshal on leave in Berlin spots a time traveler returning to the future. He tries to apprehend the man, only to be drawn decades into the future, appearing in New York. He wanders into a book store, and becomes enamored...

I think a civil war may still happen in this timeline, only it will be the north succeeding from the south, and it may happen earlier than OTL.

This is a great timeline! Thanks for recommending it. Based on what I have read so far, I've come up with two more thoughts 5. Nevada will legalize gambling in 1931 Response: Get in on the ground floor with casinos in Las Vegas 6. Al Capone will die of syphilis in 1947, but a new medicine...

Thanks so much Abhorsen. Based on your feedback, I updated the list slightly George Clinton 1788-1796 anti-federalist Thomas Jefferson 1796-1808 democrat-republican James Madison 1808-1816 democrat-republican James Monroe 1816-1824 democrat-republican William H. Crawford 1824-1828...

World War 2 might be short-circuited by the revelation that there are hostile aliens on another planet. We might see the Fascist, Democratic, and Communist countries put aside their differences, at least temporarily, and focus on the conquest of space to prevent future invasions. Superman: War...

Here are some of my initial thoughts about this world. Negatives: Slavery would last longer, and segregation much much longer (and, in fact, might still be in place in some areas) Drug use would be higher Since America adopts isolationism in 1969, communism would take over most of the world...

I took this into account as much as possible. That was why the Doolittle Raid still had to happen. Up until that point, the IJA refused to release the troops needed for the invasion of Hawaii. After the raid, the Army and Navy temporarily put their differences aside, and the Army agreed to...

I was working on an idea for a more Libertarian version of the united states. While I was at it, however, I though it might be fun to do this. I made the winner of each US Presidential election the candidate who most strongly supported small government and states' rights. I think it might be fun...
