There are many TLs I know that I wouldn't exist in and I have a hard time finding one in the before 1900 section where I would exist. We like to think that if we meet our counterpart from another TL, they would probably be from a vastly different world and TL, but honestly, the differences can't be too large because the circumstances for you to exist require too many similarities between the two TLs. Of course, that doesn't mean finding a very different TL compared to OTL where you exist in is impossible even if it is before 1900.

I remember reading a story in CTT.net about a woman from a Mongol dominated world meeting her counterpart in OTL, honestly, from a world that different, the chances of her still existing and being conceived in such vastly different worlds is ASB.

Anyway, name the TL that has the farthest back POD and where you still know for certain that you exist.
