My question is that of the printing press never being invented, this could come from any number of ways like Gutenberg being stillborn to the first printing press being destroyed by the church, although it doesn´t really matter how the printing press is destroyed or never created in the first place.

Say he makes last minute plans to accompany Ferdinand on his state visit to Sarajevo, and gets assassinated in Ferdinand’s place.

How would this change WW1 and the fate of Austria-Hungary when Franz Ferdinand immediately becomes emperor?

In 1955, after a power struggle with Nikita Khrushchev over control of the USSR, Georgy Malenkov was deposed. In 1957, after an attempted coup to regain power, he was outright removed from the Praesidium and spent the rest of his life in obscurity. Yet whilst he was Premier, he was attempting industrial reforms to focus on consumer goods and quality of life - it's an interesting idea that a more technocratic reformer was denounced as a 'rightist'.

Let's place this at the start of his tenure (so that his triumvirate with Beria and Molotov remains intact) in 1953 - what if Malenkov secures his grip on power before Khrushchev makes his own gambit? Does he get the chance to institute reforms? Does Beria depose him instead?

Would WWI still happen?

So according to a Ted-Ed [video](https://youtu.be/JjhrN0FcHpM?si=EVO50bdCvn1IDU6D&t=216), during the Irish Potato Famine the Ottoman Sultan had planned to donate 10,000 pounds for famine relief. However, he was talked down to 1,000 pounds to avoid embarrassing the British Monarch Queen Victoria who had only donated a measly 2,000 pounds for famine relief.

But what if the Ottoman Empire had found a way to donate the other 9,000 pounds to help the Irish like through the Quakers who were providing humanitarian relief to the Irish however they could.

How would the scandal affect British-Irish relations and British-Turkey relations?

For me it makes so much more sense. The Germans were kicked out of that place either way, they are the ones who tried to exterminate the Ashkenazi Jews, most of the Jews who went so Israel in the beginning were from Europe. It seems like such a perfect solution. On top of it, the Soviet Union already had a Jewish Autonomous Oblast, so why not just move people around a bit more, as they were always doing?

Maybe all that drama and suffering in the Middle East could have been avoided, which means means no Camp David, maybe no Oil Crisis, maybe Iran doesn't end up as bad as it is nowadays, so maybe Reagan doesn't win such a landslide victory and is not able to make so many questionable choices. I don't know, it sounds like such a great timeline.

I mean her eldest daughter would be the next ruler, not sure what’ll happen to Albert and the empire.

Facebook later bought Instagram and turned it into an influencer hub, which went on to be the main Only fans marketing platform

i honestly think about this question all the time, if they didn't put their lives at risk what would happen?

Before we get to the what if factors of history, I need to tell you what this is for. For a long time, I've been writing a book called "Inner Beauty", a modern day gender swapped re-telling of Beauty and the Beast. Despite it being set in the present day, I have borrowed one factor from both Disney movies in order to add tension for the couple. Our beastly lady, Sophia, is, or rather WAS, royalty. I wrote down that Sophia was the twin sister of Frederick of Wales, the father of George III. Thus, she would have been born in the Holy Roman Empire.

Anyway, what I initially wrote is that as usual, she was a spoiled, selfish, and unkind brat whom history would not look kindly on. She was so high maintenance, that many were afraid an arranged marriage involving her would end in disaster. So instead, George II, her father, granted her a new duchy in the American colonies. Officially, this was to strengthen ties between the colonies and the crown. Unofficially though, it was to get her out of any European court.

Anyway, she arrived in the colonies, one thing led to another, and she ended up pissing off someone adept in dark magic. So, she was turned into a frightening monster. Unlike the Disney versions, this curse has no time limit and has given her immortality. No, the tension isn't in a race against the clock. The tension is in her and Nathan, the human guy, learning to trust each other. You see, this backstory is NOT meant to be revealed at the opening. It's meant to be revealed later because communication is essential in any relationship.

But today, I'm not interested in the story set in the present day. I'm talking about the what if question of "What if Frederick of Wales" had a twin sister? Does this alt past I wrote seem plausible? Or does it need major changes? And what would the changes be? I need to get her into the colonies.

In February 26, 1993, a group of terrorists bombed the basement of the World Trade Center. The bombing wasn’t very effective, only a few people died and there was very little damage. What if, instead, those terrorists hijacked airplanes and flew them into the twin towers in 1993? What would have changed had those attacks happened 8 years earlier?

What if the prussian empire was never made would Germany not be a thing

Playing Gary Grigsbys War in the West, I decided to forgo the Italian campaign and focused instead on Normandy/ South of France. Ended up defeating Germany without touching the Italians. And it made me wonder, what would happen if Germany was defeated before the Italians? Would the Fascists have fought on, or would there have been a revolution, and a surrender?

Think of dogfights between Britian or Prussia and France! How cool would it be?
