    What if Russia had WON the Battle of Tsushima? No Pearl Harbor & a totally different WWI

    On this episodes of History Undone, Darryl Morris, Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry & Drachinifel discuss one of the most important moments of naval warfare: The Battle of Tsushima. The encounter that effectively ended the Russo-Japanese war of 1904-1905, it was a catastrophic defeat for Russia and Tsar Nicholas II. Victory saw a changing of the guard on the seas in the Far East, meaning Japan was now the dominant naval power - the ripples of that of course, lingered long after the beginning of the 20th century.

    What if Germany had won the WWI U-boat campaign? ‘The whole world order changes’

    On this episode of History Undone, Darryl Morris is joined by Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Drachinifel to discuss one of the most overlooked arenas of the First World War: the Atlantic theatre. Often called the 'first battle of the Atlantic', the German U-boat campaign seriously threatened to starve Britain out of the war, yet only brief periods of unrestricted submarine warfare in 1915 and 1917 meant this did not come to pass. Had it happened, could we be looking at an entire new world order in the 20th Century? This is History Undone. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    What if Germany had taken Moscow in WWII? ‘Stalin would have met with an accident…’

    On today's History Undone Darryl Morris is joined by Dr Klaus Schmider and Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry to discuss one of Adolf Hitler's most critical decisions of the Second World War. During the early days of Operation Barbarossa, he made an order for army groups to split north and south, rather than push on and head straight for Moscow, seeing the capital as a secondary objective. By the time mere months later, the Nazis' diverted their attentions back here, it was already too late. So what if they had pushed on early in 1941 and attempted to topple the Kremlin?

    What if France had Won The Battle of Agincourt? | History Undone with Drachinifel

    It's the 25th of October 1415, St Crispin's Day, and a small stretch of land in northern France is about to have its name etched into legend. The Battle of Agincourt was a momumental and historic victory for the English over the French, who, despite being heavily outnumbered came out on top. Yet a battle that took place over the course of just one day, could have altered the course of history. So what if the French had won that day? Would England have left the continent and become a maritime power much early? What happens to the War of the Roses? How many Shakespeare texts would we be lacking? This is History Undone.

    What if The Germans had Broken out of Stalingrad by Christmas? | History Undone

    It’s the 24th of December 1942, Christmas Eve. In the depths of the ruins of Stalingrad, all German hope of rescue has been extinguished. On this special Christmas edition of History Undone, Darryl Morris is joined by Dr Klaus Schmider & Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry to discuss the horrors of the encirclement or the 'kessel' at Stalingrad. German troops found themselves trapped within four days, but Adolf Hitler ordered them to stay put. Thousands died due to starvation and freezing temperatures, so in late December Operation Winter Storm was launched from the outside, to rescue those Germans within. Yet this was always a highly ambitious and unrealistic plan and by Christmas Eve it was clear no one was coming to save them. So what if those inside had managed to break out earlier, or what remained of them had been rescued in December 1942? This is History Undone. Hosted on Acast.

    What if Japan had Successfully Invaded India in WW2? ‘A geopolitical disaster’

    On this episode of History Undone, Darryl Morris, Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Jonathan Parshall discuss one of the most overlooked campaigns of the Second World War: Burma and the South East Asian theatre. Japan occupied the nation from 1942 until 1945 and despite pushing on for a failed invasion of India in 1944, there was an opportunity two years earlier that Japan did not take. So what if Imperial Japan had pushed on and successfully invaded the jewel in the crown of the British Empire? This is History Undone. Welcome to Times Radio History, a channel that looks back at pivotal moments and asks 'What if?'. We'll be looking at key battles, strategic decisions and political outcomes with leading historians and current military experts and tacticians to see what might have happened differently, and more importantly, what impact those differences might have had on the world today.

    What if The Russian Revolution Failed? Why it's The Most Significant Event in Modern History

    Darryl Morris is joined by Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Anna Reid to discuss arguably one of the most consequential what ifs of the 20th Century and beyond: the October Revolution in 1917 and subsequent Russian Civil War. It not only ended centuries of tsarist rule and pulled Russia out of the First World War, but led to the creation of the Soviet Union and its most famous figures. Without the Bolshevik victory, would we still have World War 2, the Cold War, the space race or the rise of Putin? This is History Undone. Hosted on Acast.
