Pyrrhus: Forged by Hephaestus' Iron
In addition to creating a seperate timeline abour Rhodri Mawr & his revival of the brythonic kingdoms I thought I'd do somehting else as well.
I have always been interested in Greek history & of the dissolution of Alexander's empire and what could have been.
Now as far as I can discern there are no threads about Pyrrhus of Epirus, he of 'Pyrrhic Victory fame.
Now what if at Asculum Pyrrhus had won but with much fewer losses, could the term 'Pyrrhic Victory' have become something more potent, a symbol of defeating the odds with so few?
I want to create a timeline in which he does just that and also sets about re-creating Alexander The Great's empire but also 'bettering' it in his own image. Conquering what Alexander had yet to conquer.
Any help and advice?How can this be achieved?
I know certain things would by butterflied away i.e. The Byzantines in their roman form. Christianity. Islam. And a lot more.
