Lets say a trading network is established sometime between 1300-1500 . It starts in China, then goes through Korea Japan and the Aleutian Islands all the way to what is now Northern California in OTL. At first, many indigenous people will die from the spread of new diseases. Eventually, they'll become adapted.meanwhile, many East Asian people will probably intermarry with the indigenous population. Buddhism and Confucianism are probably going to be the first to spread from East Asia to the Pacific Northwest. What about having Islam spread to there and replace Buddhism and Confuciianism later on? Is that plausible or ASB? Perhaps Muslims conquer Japan, or Hui Muslim missionaries come to the Pacific Northwest?
