  1. Timeline Planning: The Rise and Fall of the British Empire

    Back last year I made a thread questioning what would happen if the collapse of the British Empire was more analogous to the fall of the Roman one . Lately I've got back to thinking about it, and now mean to actually start planning it out. As I'm not too experienced with writing timelines like...
  2. Roman-Style Fall of the British Empire

    With just about any powerful empire you can bet comparisons to Rome will happen at some point or another, and the British one was little exception. But, as always, such comparisons are quite often overdone. One interesting concept I have been considering though was one in which the comparison is...
  3. WI: HP Lovecraft, the world's oldest man

    Howard Philips Lovecraft was born in Providence, on the 20th August 1890, and the first 47 years of his life proceed much as usual, writing, poverty, cancer and all. Yet in this timeline, though the cancer proves a significant health scare, he survives through it nonetheless. In the year 1990 he...
  4. AHC: An earlier internet, and the effects thereof

    Threadmarks: Teji's Journey

    800 BCE Teji felt as if he had been walking for years, although he knew it had been mere days since he and his people had been forced to leave their homes for good. And if things were to continue as they had done for the days since then, he doubted that they would be walking much longer...

    800 BCE Teji felt as if he had been walking for years, although he knew it had been mere days since he and his people had been forced to leave their homes for good. And if things were to continue as they had done for the days since then, he doubted that they would be walking much longer...
  8. WI: Earlier invention of photography

    Although photography was only invented in the 1820s, it could easily have been invented much earlier. The camera obscure dates back to the time of the ancient greek, early magnifying glasses are recorded dating back to 400 BC, lenses were rediscovered in the 12th century and silver nitrate was...
