DBAHC: Make Ouzhou and the East Switch

Basically what the title says. Is there a way to potentially make Ouzhou* colonize the New World while the East** remains stagnant? What would Ouzhoan colonies look like?


OOC:

*-The name of Europe.

**-Collective term for OTL Asia. I'd assume that India and Arabi would be regarded as separate continents.

Hopefully this doesn't give too much away, I just don't want a DBWI where OTL names that shouldn't exist still do for whatever reason.
 
Personally, I dont think european kingdom will have any incentive to "sail and search for asia"(There is many source which claimed that european noble in al-porto have tried hiring italian explorer, But this search was cut short because black plauge have reached al-porto and caused the kingdom to collaspe). Atleast not when they are busy fending themself from nomadic moslem invander and dying from the plauge
OOC:ITTL Black Plauge murdered the most of europe, muslim get some luck and survived by adopting semi-nomadic lifestyle.
 
Personally, I think that the best thing would be to keep the New Plage, what the natives call Cocoliztli, from arriving in Europe when they had first started trying to trade. That woulda made things a lot easier for them. Another would be to keep the Great Schism from happening, meaning that there's at least some religious unity in that area.
 
So I'm hearing keep Ouzhou away from the plagues? I guess that could get the Ouzhoans some colonies, although how would the East avoid colonization of the New World? Wouldn't they still want to trade with the west?

Yeah, the Poles and Lithuanians were lucky to escape the plague, no wonder they became the dominant powers in Europe with the Jagiellonians ruling an empire from the Rhine to the Volga at their height.

The alliance with the Steppe people certainly helped. It basically gave them a secure eastern border.

IC: Your thoughts on the Leipzig Revolution which overthrew the Jagiellonian "Holy Roman Empire", which was already weakened by the Great Tengriist Uprising 50 years earlier, and replaced it with the weak European Commonwealth?

Easy, Just make the nomadic turk stronger. They will do a good job keeping china from going too strong, Maybe have them slaim the emperor and throw china into 1 or 2 civil war.
Or not so easy but interesting PoD, Empower the eunuch to counter the beureau/general and make emperor an figurehead. That is quite ASB since OTL eunuch is irrevelent because most ming/post-ming emperor involved themself with statecraft instead of spending his time with concubines but once done will have very negative effect on chineese stability(most emperor who let eunuch deal with bussiness of the realms ended up become figurehead and removed their family from mandate of heaven(Han dynasty for example))

If that had been so, i would have been actually talking in English rather than Chinese(I am currently using Samsung Translate for the same) .

It was named that way, because the emperor of China thought that giving anything the title of 'New China' would humiliate the word of 'China' .
