  1. Battle Cry of Freedom
    Threadmarks: Introduction

    Happy Leap Day! I'm two months late in starting this thread, but as they say, better late than never. Battle Cry of Freedom is my newest endeavor, and I hope to make it my sole allohistorical focus over the remainder of 2024. I'm not much of one for New Year's resolutions, but upon realizing...
  2. Final Frontiers: a Map and Graphic Timeline
    Threadmarks: Introduction

    Howdy, everyone, and welcome to the home of my newest allohistorical endeavor: Final Frontiers. FF is a few different things all wrapped up into one suspiciously Australia-shaped package. Firstly, it's a redux of an older timeline: Earth98, by u/DeFlame. I'll openly admit that I am not...
  3. Arcadia Forever Reigns: an alternate New England

    Howdy folks, welcome to my newest creative endeavor. The scene opens on a bright, sunny morning at the Massachusetts State House.

  6. The Northern Tier: American division of Canadian lands?

    Let’s say that by some crazy means, the United States gains all of British Canada in the Treaty of Ghent. This means that by 1815, they have Upper Canada, Lower Canada, the Hudson Bay, all of it. How they get the land isn’t important. What I’m curious about is what do they do with it? Would the...
  7. Alternate Names for Africa

    Howdy all, I’m writing this thread because I need help coming up with alternate names for the continent of Africa. I’m doing an alternate history where there is a nation named Africa, and I don’t want it to share a name with its continent. Assuming all languages and colonization patterns went...

    Assuming no geological/geographical changes and minimal changes to Indian and European settlement patterns in North America, what are some potential alternate names for each of the 5 Great Lakes?
  10. Aquila et Ursus - A mildly ASB exercise in alternate geography

    Hello all, I've taken a quick break from JABB to work on my ATL "baby," as it were, Aquila et Ursus.

    Hello all, Jake here.

  12. Stars and Stars Forever

    https://i.redd.it/xu4w2flf7ph61.png Created by u/Atzyn and myself, the timeline of Stars and Stars Forever is an exercise in dipping our toes into ASB waters in order to pack the USA full of a ridiculous number of states. We're opening this thread for a similar purpose as the Reddit post - to...

  14. AHC: Cursed America

    Hello all, I recently had an idea to create a realistic America, but one that's just wrong. I'd like to keep it close to its status in OTL, what with population, land area, a sizeable Anglo population, and role in the world. That being said. how could I go about creating a cursed USA?
  15. Alternate Colonization

    Does anybody know of a good resource that can tell me what each colonial power's objectives were for taking the land they did? For instance, if I remember right, weren't a sizable number of French colonists in America fur traders? And, if that's the case, why then did they colonize so much of...
  16. AHC: Cursed Cities

    Hi everyone, this is a challenge I'm creating to come up with cursed (yet realistic) alternate city names. If you'd like to add one, the format goes like this: The OTL City - The New Name - Reason for Change - I'll start us off. The OTL City - Dallas, TX The New Name - Van Buren Reason for...

  18. Alt-Geo DBWI: Unite Sahul

    OTL, the Continent of Sahul is divided into 3 islands: Victoria Island, Nieuw Holland, and New South Wales.

  19. Buffed Populations

    Hello all, I recently had an idea pop into my head - population buffing. Surely, the problem of overpopulation could be ameliorated not by reducing people, but by better using land and other resources. With that, I propose my first question to you all: With technology levels staying the same as...
