A profoundly beautiful update. The world turns, and all go about as they do.

The mentions in England particularly intrigue me. Perhaps the Anglican Tudors remain in control of the succession?
 
Ah, I was waiting for this-it's very exciting!

I wonder if the English or French will have a chance to establish a trading presence at the end of the 16th century. Not likely, but I think it is possible.

They have heard the rumors. They have various other issues to consider, but they know what's out there. Kind of.

This was announced, and it's done most plausibly. So far, Portuguese interaction seems minimal, but you never knew how things would spiral out of control in 16th century colonialism. Great!

The Portuguese have their toehold. Will it be Macau or Salvador? Time will tell...

I love the name Lesser Cathay! It sounds so cool yet so realistic.

Thanks!

Of Portugal's historic settlements, possessions and colonies, only Brazil truly became a major settler colony. I doubt this timeline will be different in that respect.

Well, Africa saw settlers

A particularly beautiful yuletide chapter.

Thank you!

Edward lives. Near crippled and with a religious fervor born of his illness. But he lives.

Are you sure you're not @Every Grass in Java ? Your writing style is profoundly beautiful.

This is high praise. High praise indeed.

Did anyone else get the sneaky LORAG reference in the update?

I did!

Looks like we finally have a print cover for this TL.

@King of the Uzbeks I could definitely see this TL being published one day (if it is completed) by Sea Lion Press. However, in this case, you should definitely add a map and a general outline of what happened between the Inca, the Spanish and the different factions of the Inca OTL, because otherwise it is quite difficult to understand for people like me who aren't that knowledgeable about ancient South American history.
 
It has been too long.

Tomorrow.
Hyped. I can’t wait for the showdown between the Jevohah Mapuche and the Spaniards. I can imagine some Conquistadore just lookingout in a confused manner to see a whole bunch of Mapuche on horseback charging at the Spaniards screaming passages from the Bible.
So now the question is how will all that lovely Incan silver get into the Spaniards hands, causing a inflation. Also I got a feeling we’re going to see a showdown between the German and Spaniards between the issue of the Incan lands and resources, as well as their preferred rulers.
