Early medieval TLs also tend to be very unpopular (both to write and when they are written they never seem to attract many readers).
I wonder why that is?
I don't know, my Amalingian Empire TL gets a fair share of readers; not as many as i might like, of course (lets face it, i want ALL the readers!) but a good bit. I think some of the problem is the lack of sources, in many ways. There isnt a lot of stuff there (there is a surprising bit once you really start digging, but not as much as during, say, the Roman Empire). Also, people on this voard have a strange fascination with saving Rome. A TL that happens after the fall doesn't seem as sexy as one where Rome recovers.
So I've noticed, but aren't the implications here the possible prolonging of the death of the Western Roman Empire by at least a century or two?
