    Anyways, back to your regular scheduled broadcast with 2 Bulgar timelines that don't get enough love. Option 1: Basil II dies before or shortly after he takes the throne of Byzantium. Option 2: Leo VI doesn't massively fuck up relations with Bulgaria.

    No idea what happened but I do not think @Buba deserved it, you do realize he is not an American and doesn't know of your sacred cows? And also, Slav sarcasm, due to his high IQ built in is unfathomable to mere anglos. :ROFLMAO:

    They will have to industrialize western Russia and the Urals faster. Maybe this will free up some more of their energy to expand into the Caucasus and Siberia, and maybe they will prioritize taking the eastern Balkans and the Bosporus to secure their trade and prevent anyone digging too deeply...

    I actually like the guy, he was smart, a good writer, etc. Model conservative. So him sadly dying, maybe after some big financial conspiracy is discovered, and one of the conspirators poisons him, would fit. Finding a way to rid of him would not be that hard given his Jewish background and...

    Possible, yes, but I would prefer a scandal that somehow turns Disraeli and his associates into persona non grata, preferably after the violent suppression of the April uprising and after a bunch of Catholics, including at least a few prominent foreign monks, get the Batak treatment. Thst...

    Nope, wrong thread, I even reported it, asking it to be moved to the right one. :ROFLMAO:

    Unlikely. And the POD should be around the time of the April Uprising. Nope, we are keeping the Orthodoxy. However, one of the main pro-Ottoman forces at the time was Disraeli and the Magyars. So, let us say that some huge scandal in the UK causes the Disraeli government to fall, while some...

    The Central Powers were far from the evil monsters the entente described them as. Austria-Hungary, as bad as it was, was a much more advanced place vs. Serbia. Now, I want a few ideas regarding how San-Stefano Bulgaria comes into existence. Maybe there is some huge scandal in the UK which...

    Didn't read all that, but why the fuck would we Bulgarians want to embroil ourselves in another mess, in particular a mess cooked up by Prodigious Albion which fucked us over after the Russo-Turkish war of 1878, right after BW1 and 2 which cost us dearly to the point where the post war situation...

    Yeah, but it is basically a fusion of Confucian and British values, primarily common law and not hating the merchant classes as much. Hence my question.

    British Indochina and French India. How does it happen and what are the implications? Do we basically get one huge Singapore?

    Or he is visiting the Pentagon when that aircraft hits it and dies. He would not be remembered as a bad president that way, and with Chaney taking over, well, people might make some comparisons and decide he was a great president.

    Notice the smiley face. :D And I do not think Tesla and HPL ever met, but I think Tesla knew Houdini who was friends with HPL. In any case, sending a bunch of notable people back in time a few decades might be lots of fun.

    Then he should send his blood buddies Edison, Houdini and Lovecraft back, that would make for one hell of a rimeline. :sneaky:

    He can come back on time, use his knowledge of future events and technical accumen to make a truckload of money and hire professional assassins, literal and character, to at least postpone the war. The general premise is very interesting.l, though.

    Interesting, but why not just send his own soul back on time?

    Watergate pre-Watergate: The Kennedy brothers using the DOJ and the IRS to target their political enemies. Obama using the IRS to attack teh Tea party and other leftwing groups. Both Clintons.... yeah, what is not a potential second Watergate with them.

    There are several different maps of Old Great Bulgaria :sneaky: Our current crop of historians think that it was much larger. Oh, and that we founded you Poles fave city of Kiev. But in general the leftovers of the Bulgars were strong enough to best the shit out of Byzantium and create a sizable...
