With a POD after 1500, can we create a situation where English splits into at least two separate languages as distinct as Dutch and Afrikaans? The resulting languages may still be mutually intelligible, but the point is for them to be widely regarded as separate languages, rather than just dialects.

And don't just say "OTL English creoles", since those were never fully-fledged dialects of English to begin with. I want something a little more akin to Afrikaans or the Serbo-Croatian situation.
