I’m curious as to how other civilizations could survive the same meteor strike as in S.M. Stirling’s surprisingly not-bad “Peshawar Lancers”. For simplification, I’m going to have other great meteor strikes hit at the same places and intensity as Stirling’s original work, and at the same year (1868, I think… poor U.S., so soon after the ACW!).
So how could another ATL survive such an event in their version of 1868.
For example, I can see the Draka actually taking over the world (or most of it) if the same thing happened in the Draka TL’s 1868. Both Europe and the U.S. almost destroyed… poor world.
No idea how the Years of Rice and Salt world would take it. I think China will end up up really well in the end.
