    WI: Lost Roman Colony on Lake Chad

    I'll confess that Ancient History is far from my forté, but I remember reading that Rome did launch an expedition that left a garrison on Lake Chad. It doesn't seem like anything significant came of it IOTL, but that could be the start of something. With such a long distance and a relatively...

    If Buttercups Buzz'd After the Bee: The Rise and Fall of the American Empire

    I swear a new update is coming soon, however, since things haven't been going the best, I channeled my negative emotions into writing another piece of Martin Horn's daily life. As weird as it is, even though Horn is probably one of the most objectively morally bad character's I've envisioned...

    NEW BIRTH OF FREEDOM: The Wilmot Proviso Passes

    This is looking quite good so far. One question though, the border between America and Mexico seems a bit unclear from the description, so do you have a map to clarify? I'm mostly curious as to how much territory the "the northern halves of the states of Sonora and Chihuahua" actually represents.

    Oh, before I forget everyone, here's the royal banner of the King of Kauai that gets used in the 19th century. I initially meant for it to be in the update but I forgot to add it in.

    Thank you, that's a really kind remark. I'm always glad to see people enjoying it! Anywho, here's a mini-update about Rhode Island. The tiny country's merchants are getting up to some hijinks, and the one in this update really doesn't have anywhere else to organically slide into the other...

    Hello everyone! I know it's "just a bit" since the last update, but with the world collapsing in flames around us I haven't had a good chance to do a lot of writing. However, I got the next update finally finished and since the plant I work at is shut down as the workforce is suffering a...

    What would the flag of a non-KMT, democratic China without Tibet, Uyghuristan, etc. look like?

    That's true, I misunderstood what I read, but that'd still probably work as a base for the national flag. It was the flag used in the Wuchang Uprising, and to quote crwflags: It was initially designed as a flag for China sans the minorities to begin with, so it'd probably work quite well here.

    "What Madness Is This?" Vol. II: The Pinnacle Future

    A few years back, I got interested in learning my family's ancestry to obtain all the flags from where the family names come from, and I found upon researching my family tree that my Grandpa's grandparents likely anglicized their names and came from Spain, something that was previously unknown...

    Hello everyone! I'm working on finishing an update to square away the political situation of the USA before moving on the the next large section, (the First Empire will be here relatively soon, yay!) and that includes the internal structure of the USA. As some of you may recall, in DoaR the...

    Hello everyone! Bit of a shorter update, but this is on the status of the USA's capital city. It's still a different location than OTL, but not the nightmare of a capital being in New Jersey as in the previous version. "Is Washington a better city for America than New York? In truth, I do...

    1. Yep, they break free later. 2. Yes. Gotta start with a half-Ameriwank to make the fall harder. 3. 4. The Second Republic is pretty good, were it not for economic woes and crippling tensions between left and right, it may have even stayed a democratic state. Our boy hasn't been changed too...

    My great, great, great or so grandpa came to this land back about [17]96 and since then it seems like every generation some goddamn sonovabitch has tried to ruin my family’s farm. The Spaniards burned it, Lincoln burned it, Walker burned it, Roosevelt burned it, the Nikies dropped a fucking...

    You know, that's a brilliant idea to reference OTL stuff, I wish I had thought of it at some points earlier, it might have made some elements seem better. Also, yeah, I imagine most people recognize all of this, I may have just been a bit too paranoid. The Trekkers/Libertarians are similar...

    Thanks for the suggestions, it's a good idea to get this squared away soon, along with the USA's internal structure. Anywho, I was working on a Trekker update to talk about them, and I made this (it's an actual spoiler for the next update): It's the map I've made so far to show the location...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    I kinda agree TBH. It seems to me the Atom Bomb might not be as effective against the Neutrality Pact at this time due to the slow production rate. Sure, a number of cities might be destroyed, but this is a fight to annihilation, so there won't be a surrender. Instead, NP forces would likely...

    How far would you have to go back to prevent the following words from existing?

    The biggest problem here is that many of these things will almost certainly come about through the development of human society and if they exist, there's a good chance there'll be a term for it. In order to prevent a word for science existing, for example, you'd basically have eliminate the...

    Hello everyone! Quick question for you all: is there something so far that I haven't covered in sufficient detail? I've kind of realized that some things in my notes aren't mentioned so well, so if there's anything you all would like to see more detail on, I'd love to know.
