Wow! I'm not all caught up (last put all the story posts on my Kindle in 2015, so just as part V was starting) but this is an amazing timeline. Just like how the French Revolution went from a piece of paper to a lazy dog, the timeline starts out in OTL and slowly, step by logical step, turns into a truly alien world where the relatively sane government requires citizens to attend low-level ethnic/ideological riots over obscure historical disputes and South America is (at least until recently) ruled by a bizarre dictatorship and global superpower whose ideology is still clear as mud. I love the alternate language, after reading through it I can think a sentence like "Those radical Diversitarians of the Russian School would gladly emulate Lisieux (despite their protestations of Haraldsson's Maxim) by plogisticating every citizen of the Combine as the Jacobins of Cayenne once dreamed of doing, but such belief in the irredeemability of the subjects of the Threefold Eye runs counter to all that Diversitarianism ought to stand for and project across the terreaqueous globe..." and know that would make very little sense to those who didn't read the timeline, yet it makes perfect sense having read it. Beautiful!
