Pick a country, and write its history!
Don't like the existing nations?
Start a revolution sometime in the time period and build a new nation for the time line!
This is not a 'what if?' thread. It is a thread designed to redraw the map of Europe in any way contributors want, but with a nod to history, demographics and general sense. There are several provisos which must be met however within this framework.
Firstly; Contributors may only pick one nation in Europe at a time to write the history of.
Secondly; You may discuss and suggest edits to other contributors histories, but they must be done from the point of view of your chosen nation. i.e. if you have championed France, but 'Italy' has said they conquered Corsica with XYZ, under leadership ABC at the date 1???, and you don't like that, you need to explain how the French countered that conquest with ZYX, under leadership CBA etc.
Thirdly; More than one person can suggest changes to nation the same nation, so long as the second proviso is met.
Fourthly; 1910 is the end date of this 're-worked' history no events or situations should come after this date, key events may precede 1750 as need be to mitigate ASB events if need be, but events discussed should be in general after this date.
Fifthly; Europe is not isolated from the rest of the world. You may discuss events elsewhere in the world if they add to your nations history.
Sixthly; Have some fun, this is pseudo-serious, but more a game of championing a nation and trying to rewrite its history as you might like it to have been (while at the same time others are trying to do the same thing).
Seventh; If there is any arguments/disagreements I'll arbitrate is you don't mind just to keep flame wars from occurring between dissenting opinion.
----------------------------------------------------------
Additionally there are some challenges;
Caveats:
1. At least Scotland is not part of the United Kingdom and independent (relationship status is up to contributors)
2. The seeds of Communism, Liberalism and Autocracy must still be established in several nations by 1910.
3. Try and throw in a revolution or two.
4. [there may be others]
