    An Age of Miracles III: The Romans Endure

    Almost certainly they were in a privileged position and well armed before the most recent treaty between Rome and Persia—question is, how many of them escaped the reprisals in the wake of Ibrahim’s invasions of Palestine?

    THICC: The Highly-Inclusive Color Code

    Kinda based. I gotta see which Spain works for Paldea also. Hmm, Secondary Visigoths for Scarlet Paldea and Secondary Asturias for Violet Paldea? I’d use Austenasia for Isle of Armor and Confederated clans for Crown Tundra. Galapagos for Lental. Sapporo for Hisui. Probably Morioka Domain for...

    THICC: The Highly-Inclusive Color Code

    No Imperium/Chaos? For shame! (Also, for Type Moon enthusiasts, which UN/UNESCO color doubles as the Chaldea Security Organization?)

    An Age of Miracles III: The Romans Endure

    It would be pretty hilarious if we got a repeat of Thessaloniki At Baghdad...but with a tweest: "Shahnshah, the Romans have brought up the guard tagma! We're fucked! HOW DID THEY GET HERE SO QUICKLY" "Yeah, it was a bit faster than I expected, but not entirely unwelcome. After all, who do you...

    Assuming, of course, they manage to get the desired network of turnpikes and canals done in their outer provinces. Gotta keep 'em safe from bandits, though.

    An Age of Miracles III: The Romans Endure

    And if Brazil proceeds at the pace you say it will, 400% jump in land values gonna seem like fucking chump change. mind you, this is rural backwater bumfuck Indiana, in the 1840s we’re talking about, with no industrial capacity to speak of. If Brazil is truly so monstrous, quadrupling your land...

    An Age of Miracles III: The Romans Endure

    I should have probably specified that this is an 1820s or later thing, given how ITTL is several decades "ahead" of OTL in technological advancements. The Indiana Mammoth Internal Improvement Act might be a decent blueprint for what we could get in Brazil. While that was a debacle like nothing...

    An Age of Miracles III: The Romans Endure

    Not quite yet. Not until industrial equipment allows for the Brazilians to bypass the Great Escarpment entirely and blast a connection into existence between the Amazon's major transport arteries and those of the Plata. Otherwise they'll effectively have to split their economy in half--Amazon...

    Miscellaneous <1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    Not sure WHICH forum this one might go to thanks to who it concerns, because it's kind of in several parts. 1) Keep the Kingdom of Hawaii fully independent but very much status quo (mostly-white immigrant upper class, but a literate, politically aware, and well-traveled strata of native...

    Of course, if Korea goes Orthodox (Christianity being given a 200 year-plus head start ITTL)...Japan may prefer Hanseong advance to the Amur frontier in lieu of a baying horde of Cossacks with a concerningly large and modern river flotilla...and allegiance in name only to the Russian Empire...

    THICC: The Highly-Inclusive Color Code

    Along with extraterrestrial species like how we had, say, Cybertronians in 2.0? Also, what about things like interstellar human polities such as the Imperium of Man?

    THICC: The Highly-Inclusive Color Code

    So which Spain color is getting Paldea?

    THICC: The Highly-Inclusive Color Code

    So, uh, which Spain is getting the Paldean color? Considering how fucked up empty and destitute that region is, they treat pickled swamp mushrooms like precious metals for fuck's sake, it's whatever the worst Spain color is, no?

    An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    I'm really interested in seeing what late 20th Century early 21st Century "contemporary" Persian art becomes ITTL, especially if there's some big old Persian renaissance centered exclusively on lending new prestige to indigenous and/or traditional art forms that influences the discourse 4...

    An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    Huh, so I just may have realized something neat, that even in ATLs, history repeats itself. We've seen this Sideroi movie before, at least the opening act, though everything after the Germans lost in Macedonia's a new one. Or at least something like it. It's been a while, but a bookish...

    In a random Japanese preschool classroom ITTL: “Remember children, Rotaringia is the only place where St. Myra-ni Nikoraosu does not ask the little girls if they want a pony for Christmas. There is no point in giving them the contents of Sunday brunch when there are better gifts to be had. Like...

    "You see that guy?" "What, the new Eparch?" "Yeah." "What about him? He's kinda just a fancy clerk." "That man is the scariest most metal motherfucker in the Empire." "How?" "Do you want to find out how seriously he takes his work? Especially how he expedites the jobs he hates doing the most?"

    An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    Hot damn, son. Three breads. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for this incredibly based story. I may have asked this before, by the way, but what would the Romans look like in ITTL’s Age of Empires III? I’m guessing the original roster of eight European civilizations would be “Triunes”...

    An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    That would honestly be the funniest fucking thing. Imagine an observer from OTL showing up in ITTL’s 2000. “The Eastern Roman Empire is back?” “Yeah, you want to visit? Tickets to Singapore are going pretty cheap right now.” “Fucking Malaysia? Hold up…what happened to reclaiming...
