What are some alternate emigration routes and cultural paths that the Indo-European peoples could of taken and what might some of these alternate civilizations be like? Would a single culture, even a politically multipolar or diffuse one, be possible (keeping in mind probability doesn't matter, as long as the parallel universe it takes place in doesn't require Alien Space Bats, or even if it does if you have an amusing/interesting scenario to talk about, IMHO it'd be suitable)? Do you feel that things could of very easily turned out differently in large ways (as in entirely different civilizations than the ones that did develop) or that for the most part the Indo-European cultures developed along the most likely path they possibly could of?

Someone with more anthropological knowledge than me can suggest some potential POD's.
