I've been thinking of trying to do a serious timeline, but I'm not sure what line to pursue. My problem is, the last time I tried, I went too far and made the series ASB while ignoring butterflies, and the like.
So, I have a few ideas for smaller butterfly ideas, and wanted to put out which ones people would recommend I try, or would like to see.
Also, I'd really like it if someone could co-write with me if possible, or at least give advice. It'd help in writing it in the long run.
1. Losaintville: City of Light, City of Dark
Basically, the alternate history of Cincinnati and the area from its formation in the 1780's. Not only would it have a different name, but also different events would be different.
2. Know-Nothings and Over the Rhine:
A AH version of the 1855 Know-Nothing Riots in the Over the Rhine area of Cincinnati gets worse, leading to greater cooperation between immigrant groups, and the area also becomes heavily anti-slave (to be fixed through discussion how).
3. A Harsher Treaty-
an alternate history of the state of Ohio, following the Treaty of Greenville, and later in which a part of it is made into a reservation for Natives during Jackson's presidency.
4. Sunny in Mexico-
The Mexican-American war ends with parts of Mexico under U.S. occupation, and possible annexation, due to stronger All-Mexico movements in the U.S.
5. Brunels in America-
Basically, Marc Isambard Brunel decides to stay in America, and raises his family there, and how it changes American Industrialization.
6. Cherokee Nation-
the bulk of the Cherokee nation joins the colonial cause during the ARW, and manages to keep its land in Georgia after the war, and leads to a different government policy.
7.Other-
none of these work in your opinion and want to suggest something else, you have an idea and need someone to help you with it, or you like an idea, but think a different POD or result should occur, please go with this.
I know some of these are either the results of really massive butterflies, or might even be ASB to some people, but I'd welcome any help you could give in deciding would be gratefully appreciated.
