    It won. It's the official church doctrine.

    The eagle's left head

    What exactly are you trying to prove? Yes on paper he is the first among equals and the Orthodox church is more democratic than the catholic. He is also the leading priest of the entire orthodox world period with immense influence and respect stemming from that.

    Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    This world has had large scale industrial war with tanks, aircraft, heave artillery and poison gas on a WW1 scale already in North America. These are not 1914 armies that go to war.

    Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    should someone mention this France attack with the largest tank and air force on Earth? General Estienne says hello. Just saying. :angel:

    Likely not. OTL the last synod over hesychasm was in 1368 although supporters of anti-hesychasm existed into 1400 or so. Here the synod did not take place and anti-hesychasm is far stronger of course...

    He is THE ecumenical patriarch. Of course if you want to get funny one should note that the Lascarid lands are in the wrong or right side of the hesychast controversy with their bishops supporting the anti-hesychasts while Constantinople since Ioannis VI is under the hesychasts. And now...

    Threadmarks: Part 74

    Lemesos, Cyprus, March 21st, 1373 With Rhodes back under Sicilian control the army that had forced the Hospitallers into surrender had split. Three thousand men under Buas had sailed back to Epirus. The rest along with twenty-eight galleys under Maniakes and Kallergis had instead sailed east...

    Greece doesn't NEED a strategic arsenal in the first place. If you are postulating a nuclear Greece, it has gone nuclear to counter what?

    Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    For comparisons shake Israel developed nuclear weapons between 1957 and 1967. It's GDP in 1967 was $4.03 billion. While we have no idea how much the program cost we know the Dimona reactor had cost $80 million so the entire program likely cost less than half a billion. By comparison OTL Greece...

    There was a strong undercurrent of Bavarian separatism at the time and apparently even stronger monarchism. This in turn though was apparently regional also within Bavaria. The Bayern Partei might have been polling 20.9% in 1949 for example but support varied heavily between Old Bavaria on one...

    Besides that, how many have ended up married with Greeks after several years in Greece. That's still about 2 to 3 decades into the future and dependent on politics a fair bit. But TTL Greece is liable to have a nominal GDP... 3 to 4 times higher than OTL hence investment on a civilian nuclear...

    This explains entering the war not losing it in 10 days.

    Earning the vote through National Service of some type.

    And in say Mississippi of 1950 state laws did not say that a black couldn't vote. Just 99.99% couldn't get the minimum qualifications. How unfortunate. Why this scheme does not descend into this?

    Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    I must say that for a country that has spent the last 50 years preparing for the German army and navy to come over and crush them and is both relatively prosperous and with easy access to French loans Denmark looks like a surprising walkover if it goes down in 10 days. Denmark in 1919 had a...

    Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    I would be thinking the Ottomans at the moment are... shall we say horrified at the prospect Russia will be back for a return engagement now that the rest of Europe are tied down killing each other? Meddling in Serbia and Montenegro seems an excellent way to bring that forth?

    Threadmarks: Interlude - Where are they now 1945 part II

    Prodromos Bodosakis-Athanasiadis had a very profitable war. It was largely his industries that kept Greece afloat during the difficult years when the Mediterranean was closed to Allied shipping, every ton of shipping counted and Greek ports were under constant Axis attack. Bodosakis added to his...

    The Ottoman population for ehm... obvious reasons is changing from year to year. Their current European holdings should have something in the region of 600,000. With perhaps something in the order of 600-700,000 more in Anatolia. Around 2 million or so. About 168,000 sounds about right...
