I can't help but think that Europe on the whole may not have as hard a grip on the world ITTL as they did in OTL. I'd not be surprised if another civilization managed to do something similar to what Japan did, or even managed to straight up keep up with Europe. For instance, with China now...

A advanced society lacking monotheism is far from impossible, organized civilizations outside the western world and the middle east have many gods. Japan, China, India, the Aztecs or Incas- all were organized and innovated. Yet they never developed monotheism like that seen in abrahamic faith...

The "not disturbed" lines to my knowledge are basically placeholders. As for everything else, much of what you see is a byproduct of many of the nations having multiple players for them and varying player competence when it comes to historical plausibility. Some of the players don't really...

http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/19063/posts/ooc?page=1 A roleplay made by a group I associate with made this alt history roleplay that is very in-depth in its lore, stretching back years of refinement and spanning now three forums. What I do wonder is just how plausible the RP on the...

You'd have to likely have something happen in the ming dynasty that makes a colony in america [something that is unlikely given china's culture at the time], but that wouldn't fit the bill since you require a USA and ming colonists would make a totally different country.

The alteration a venetian industrialization would be very interesting. I can see anything from a much earlier unified Italy the rebirth of the western roman empire- and that probably would be within the first fifty years. And is this for LoRaG?

What method is used to make the elevation maps? Your map's design is one I want to emulate for a fantasy setting.

Habitable worlds all over the galaxy! Here's a map I made today out of frustration with trying to make a space opera setting that respects the scale of space. I'm still frustrated since I realized that each habitable system is probably 60-100 light years apart [if generous] once I explored...

Tell me if I am right on this: In this timeline, Christopher Columbus's exploration is not seen as significant as in our world due to Vinland being as prominent as it is.

How can the war be lost at home so soon? If anything anti-japanese sentiment would be at a all-time high. It took over a decade for people to want to pull out of Vietnam which was a war waged in a obscure place, for it to happen here is not feasible especially for a war that has barely gone on...

There would be a civil war every five years. You can't trust the common man with guns after all.

No mongols. Fast forward 650 years or so, and we could see a Industrial revolution form outside Europe since Europe never left the whole feudal systems while with random events and descendants of people not murdered by the mongols existing elsewhere lead to the conditions for a industrial...
