What about 'Left-Wing America, Right-Wing Western World'? Basically, it'd discuss ways that the US could've been more politically liberal, whereas the rest of the West turns out much more conservative. Thank you in advance, Zyobot Is before ore after 1900 with the POD. After 1900 is probably the most realistic. If you're okay with it, I can put this thread there. |

How about 'Anarcho-Capitalism in Star Wars', the topic of which is pretty self-explanatory? And before people here ask, the Trade Federation and CIS don't count.
The former violated the non-aggression principle--a cornerstone of ancap philosophy--by invading Naboo, and the latter had a bunch of uber-rich tycoons and commerce guilds in charge of running a government, which wouldn't exist at all in proper Ancapistan.

Well I think fandom board would do. |

Another idea I've had for a while is '1980s America ISOT to Kaiserreich Universe'. I'm guessing it'd go in Fandom AH?
If so, then I look forward to Imperial Germany and of course the various socialist powers of the setting going "WTF?!?" as a far more technologically advanced and ardently anti-communist United States from another world enters the picture--and likely starts flexing its muscles once it get a hold on the situation.

That would be correct, i think it would belong in the Fandom board |

How about 'WI: British Star Wars?', which is again rather self-explanatory. Does it belong in After 1900, the Media Fandom Hub, or somewhere else I haven't mentioned in this post?

A potential thread I've been thinking of for a while now would be '2050 Asia-Pacific to 1950', or some time travel ISOT similar to that. I'm guessing that since we have 31 more years to go until then, I should wait to put it up?
Thank you in advance,
Zyobot

I'm guessing that since we have 31 more years to go until then, I should wait to put it up? Thank you in advance, Zyobot Think you are right, but doubt this forum will still exist in 2050. Okay, then. If the forum does still exist by then and you somehow remain the administrator up to that point, would it be fine to put up the thread then? If Alternate Timelines is no longer a thing by then--and I'll be sad if and when that happens--chances are that I'd have migrated to another forum (or multiple) and am discussing that very idea there around 2050-something. But I digress for now. Another idea I'd like to propose is 'The Middle East By 2050?', which I'd ordinarily assume would go in the Future History forum. However, the fact that the region is such a focal point of modern geopolitics might mean that's the wrong call to make. Where do you stand on whether I should do that or not, if I may inquire? |

How about 'Modern BRICS to The Man in the High Castle'? I'm positive it'd go in the ASB forum, but wonder if the ensuing curbstomp would be too much.
