Create a world in which 6 sentient races exist. You must include humans as well. They have to be able to use technology (dolphins don't count in the mix, since they aren't technologically-minded, but if you can create a smarter dolphin, sure!).
Bonus points for whoever can keep history the most intact the longest. For example, if the new races don't affect the history of the Old World until Columbus lands in the Americas, you've got props. If the other races are integrated prehistorically, you don't got props.
I can think of six, though I don't know how they would affect history:
1. Humans
2. Hobbits, homo floresiensis
3. Tool-using dolphins
4. Some kind of sauroid
5. Tool-using octopi
6. For some reason I think it would be cool to have tool-using penguins rule Antarctica. Mwahahah!
Not ASB, unless the mere existance of other sentient races is considered magic. It may be very coincidental, but there is a chance that the six races can evolve into intelligence at the same time.
