Well, what countries do you think are underrepresented, or underused when making fictional TL´s? What countries would like to see featured more often in ATL´s?
Obviously due to the fact nearly all of us are westerners, living in westernised areas of the world, and most of us are from somewhere on the anglosphere, it is but natural that Britain and USA are the most often featured.
TL´s devoted specially too USA or Britain are plenty. A few here are devoted to China, (all from Hendryk if I´m not mistaken), very many are connected to Germany, especially in the 20th century, France gets it´s time in the spotlight. Roman empire, Byzantine empire, Spain and Japan are very popular as well so on.
The most underused countries in my opinion are:
China and India. (Two giants, which most often are probably scoffed due to the fact it´s impractical to gain info on them).
However here is my list of countries I´d like to see more of:
Denmark (It´s used relatively often though compared to it´s size, but I like to see more )
While we´re at it, Iceland
Thailand. (Really, I´d like to see a TL focusing on Thailand, or/and other countries in south east asia)
Hungary, Poland.
Finland.
Persia. (Modern Iran has a lot of attention, but pre 20th century doesn´t get so much attention).
I´m sure you can think of more.
P.S. I´m working nightshifts again, and due to how much coffee I drink, I usually wander the internet for an hour or so before I go to sleep. In case you were looking at the time I´m posting in
