The Miracle
The Challenge
Make a map showing a nation that has achieved an "economic miracle" and become an advanced economy that did not do so in our timeline. Our timeline examples would include Japan and Germany following World War II, as well as the Four Asian Tigers, Thailand, and modern China.
The Restrictions
There are no restrictions on when your PoD or map may be set. Future maps and ASB (i.e. blatant implausibility) are not allowed.
What constitutes an "advanced economy" is vague - a broader interpretation of the term is allowed where possible. However, the country must be significantly industrialised, and it must be more developed relative to other countries in the timeline.
You may not show a country that is an advanced economy in our timeline. This covers most of Western Europe, the USA, Canada, Japan, and South Korea. Again, a wider interpretation is permitted were possible, so countries like Thailand, India and China are still permitted, as are Eastern European countries (Russia included) provided that they are significantly more developed in your timeline than they are in ours.
If you're not sure whether your idea meets the criteria of this challenge, please feel free to PM me.
The entry period for this round shall end on Saturday 1st of September.
