So I’ve been working on my TL “Washington Burns” for some time now, and I’m finally entering the early 20th Century. As such I’m starting to look at the development of “modern” technologies and the emergence of popular culture in the US and Europe.
Some things will be largely the same, but with an initial PoD in 1814, there’s a pretty wide open field for alternate tech and cultural developments.
Some things I’ve already started to weave in, especially with automobile development, but there are plenty of things still needing to be looked at.
My idea for this thread would be for people to share ideas about different developments of common modern technology and pop culture, to brainstorm alternate names and nicknames for things that developed in our 20th Century and likely would developer in an alternate as well, just along a different path.
