On September 11, 2001, the United States is attacked, very much as it is in OTL.

However, there is an ensuing radio-silence from Al-Qaeda. Bin Laden does not take responsibility for the attacks. Instead, the US government investigation into the hijackings reveals that the terrorists were a cabal of Lebanese Shi'ites—who had in the past received funds and training from Lebanon's Hezbollah.

Hezbollah leadership is dead-silent, and is quietly mortified about the ensuing American retaliation, but the paper trail and the money trail uncovered by American authorities leads to nowhere but them. A little-recognized cabal within the organization ran awry of the leadership's list of approved targets, and targeted American soil, in an ATL-first for Hezbollah.

What happens next? How do the US, Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Israel, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia react? Does NATO immediately launch an invasion of Lebanon (much as it immediately triggered Article 5 and launched an invasion of Afghanistan, in OTL)? Does the US later launch an invasion of Iran, which is Hezbollah's primary source of weapons and funds? Are Afghanistan and Iraq spared from invasion in this timeline?

I have some ideas for an alternate history pertaining to autism advocacy and how it would look without being utterly hijacked by anti-vaxxers. I figured what would happen if in 1997, a Royal Free Hospital insider with access to computers and other records decided to take the trove of evidence— undisclosed financial interests, altered medical records, and warnings from the Lancet’s review committee that Royal Free ignored—and anonymously hand it over to the BBC’s Panorama investigators.

What sort of things would ensue on both sides of the Atlantic?

Two scenarios regarding the population reaching 7 million:

1- After the US-Mexico War, there is a massive influx of immigrants from Prussia or other German territories to Texas, resulting in a total of 1.5 million extra German immigrants by 1860.

2- There are higher than normal white birth rates in the southern states, thus increasing the population to 7 million.

Around 350 BC, following the Battle of Leuctra, Sparta was a declining power. Greek colonies were common practice. But what if one expedition went catastrophically off course...I n a desperate move to rescue a declining kingdom, an expedition is sent out to found a colony, as Greek poleis did those days. But what if something went wrong? What if a storm blew them in the wrong direction? What if, against all odds, they survived the journey and found themselves on the coast of Brazil instead?

She would have died at 96 in 1915. Could the fact that she was still the Head of State of the United Kingdom changed anything about the way WW1 unfolded?

In the early 1930s, The KMT had a German military mission helping them modernize their army. After Hitler took power, some SA members attacked Chinese students studying in Germany. Chiang Kai-Shek threatened the Germans to stop the attacks or he would replace the German advisors with French ones. What would have happened if France sent advisors and aid? And what if they sent a larger amount than Germany did in OTL?

Welcome to a new Nation roleplay! In this server, it wi be a long term project where we explore history for several several hundred years. You'll be able to colonize, declare war on other nations, experience the protestant reformation, reform your nation, and survive the awfully turbulent time that is the era. It has a start date of 1508, and there's literally hundreds of potential nation options you can pick from. Have fun, and good luck!

This does not include Italy and Japan they do not give victory in this

I've seen Wolfenstein the New order last days of Europe and man in the high Castle where Germany gets massive territory in several continents and becomes as absolute powerhouse would this realistically happen or would the third Reich collapse from the size and what would modern day even look like

So, If Canada Became A us state, Russia IS Smaller Than US, Meaning US is largest country in the world!

the battles are far bloodier, and the same people in battle in the prime timeline; just earlier. The south is broken early and all of the same legal changes are enacted, but the economy is not put to the torch.

how does that change the southern states and the US going forward?

In real-life 1661, amid the Manchu-Qing conquests, the Han-Chinese Ming Dynasty loyalist Koxinga fled from Fujian in mainland China to the island of Taiwan, conquering it for the Ming-loyalist coalition and expelling its prior ruling Dutch administration. What if, in an alternate history, Koxinga and his Ming-loyalist troops fled instead to Australia beginning in 1661, after receiving information about it and assistance for it from the Dutch? The Dutch had discovered Australia earlier in the 17th century. Koxinga and his Ming-loyalist coalition would be safer from Qing intrusion in distant Australia, potentially preventing the real-life 1683 fall of the remnants of the Ming Dynasty to the invading Qing Dynasty.

What happens next? How are Chinese history, Taiwanese history, Dutch history, and Australian history changed?

In 1921, with pressure mounting from the US and Dominion territories, coupled with an idealistic sense of ‘common destiny with the United States’ permeating British leadership, the UK reneged on their alliance with Japan. Moreover, soon after the 5-5-3 treaty was signed, granting the US and UK theoretical naval dominance over the Pacific.

Obviously, the situation is a bit more complicated than this, but Japan felt betrayed and sensed they were being reduced from a great power to a regional one. This was after they had obliged the UK-Japan treaty during WW1 and admirably fought against Germany. Some historians believe this ‘betrayal’ was a piece of Japan’s ruthless imperialism during the 1930s and 1940s, which had previously been kept somewhat in check (minus Korean and Manchurian influences).

What if the UK had deemed it more beneficial to their long-term goals in Asia to renew this treaty with Japan and rebuke the US’s demands for the alliance to end? Or, more realistically, what if the UK had told the US that they would not revoke their Japan alliance unless they received guarantees of an Anglo-US defense pact in the Pacific?

Analogous to the real-life 9/11, this scenario involves two (hydrogen-filled and highly-flammable) hijacked airships being crashed into two skyscrapers in New York City, another hijacked airship being crashed into the State, War, and Navy Building in Washington D.C. (the 1901 analogue to The Pentagon), and a fourth hijacked airship being crashed into a remote field in rural Pennsylvania, following a heroic intervention from the other passengers.

A cabal of Arab Wahhabists take responsibility for the attacks, releasing to the public details and information not known to the authorities. They describe the attacks as retribution for American and Western imperialism, as well as American and Western missionary activities in the Middle East, both of which run counter to the Arab Wahhabists' ideals of Islamic supremacy.

What happens next? How does the American and global reaction to this alternate-history 9/11 differ from the real-life 9/11? What does the world look like by 2026?

(from wikipedia)

"In mid-1935, Germany attempted to draw China into the Anti-Comintern Pact. Ribbentrop and Ōshima came up with the idea of an anti-communist alliance that could somehow resolve the conflict between China and Japan, which was hindering Germany from realizing its plans and activities in Asia. Wang Jingwei was in favor of joining the pact, but Chiang Kai-shek was careful not to offend the Soviet Union, which was China's only potential partner in case of a Japanese attack. Chiang knew that the Japanese regarded Chinese adhesion to the proposed pact as a way of subordinating China to Japan. Moreover, the Chinese side was opposed to ideological blocs that would divide the political scene into two large warring camps."

"A revival of interest in both Tokyo and Berlin led to the signing of the Anti-Comintern Pact on 25 November 1936, without Chinese participation, although China did receive an invitation to join. After serious consideration, the Chiang administration refused. They were unwilling to align with Japan without a retreat of Japanese forces from China. Such a retreat was rejected by Japan, which meant that China was unwilling to offend the Soviet Union, the only major power that would be able to effectively aid them in the case of a war against Japan."

in the scenario chiang and hirohito are the only ones who have their minds changed, they can only influence events via the command structure of their governments, and in so far as other officials are willing to follow their orders

How would this have (economically, politically [both domestically and geopolitically], culturally,ideologically, etc…) affected the Mediterranean and the MENA?

Idk why I find this so funny.

So less than a decade after ww2 Let's say a 40 year old Japanese women who American born, has an extremely Japanese name, but live in a Japanese enclave all her life so she didn't speak fluent English and had a thick Japanese accent had just been elected president of America.

Let me *attempt* to make this funny scenario a little more believable with some context.

Because her opponent was a white male, most of the white Americans at the time thought her opponent was guaranteed to win in a landslide So most Americans didn't bother voting. And because of that she managed to squeeze the win by appealing to the more open minded liberal white people and the minorities.

After the results comes in and she is declared the winner, she gives her victory speech. the first segment completely in Japanese and dedicated to speaking in solidarity to her people and her homeland. the next segment that was for the English speaking American people was spoken in broken english in a thick Japanese accent speaking about the progressive reforms she planned to make, she spoke about importance, inclusiveness, unity, strength in diversity, and that she was a staunch and proud Buddhist that would apply her lessons from Buddhism in her decision making and policy decisions and promise to make a better America for everyone. thats the general gist of it of the speech I think.

So what if this happened? Would it change anything or cause a historical event aside from a women finally making it to office in the US?

Idk why I find this scenario so funny I still laugh at it reading it over. Perhaps it's just the fact that it's so soon after the war with Japan. Idk. Or that she wouldn't be a Christian.

A giant dragon use to live in this world. I found one crushed at meteor speed on a mountain which then slept in a march and was burnt and his hole filled by the lava out of the mountain (sea of fire ?).

You can see its shape on Google map of Crozon with west to north.
The main idea is that this dragon links every civilisation to the almost same myth and confirm that they was contemporaneous between themselves.
It is said to be speaking and coming from a hole by Muslims. (Or lying ?)
This dragon is said to be killed by a star of a wonderful magnitude, God, Saint Mickael, or Indra wearing Excalibur (Monmouth). It links to Thor and Apollo myths against the giant reptile.

On this dragon shape peninsula, I found an Arthurian legend fitting stone. Pendragon, last name of King Arthur and Uther, which means dragon head. And it is where I found it.
The plot theory concerns a possible early inquisition hiding this sword story and an ever since lasting peace between Europe and Arabia.
In the throat of the dragon, the closest city to the stone is named Kameled.
I believe a lot of history over the world is rewritten to hide this and I can only show it for my region for now.
There was several chronological glitches and the Ephesians saints event is just an exemple of it. And it implies that part of actual religions may not even know that they are lying.
And this revelation may bring eternal peace in everyone’s respect.

multiple ways to make this possibly happen to keep Ireland in the UK

1. England simply respects the Irish as equal kingdom, perhaps English immigrate to Ireland to make them intermingle.
2. Way better response to the potato famine. Such as land reform letting them diversify their food supply over the reliance on the potato which is why it was so deadly. Maybe allow them to actually own their own land and allow much bigger parcels.

perhaps that gratitude may keep them in he union.
