There really needs to be a timeline on this...
Indeed. If anyone starts a TL on this, oh, please, for God's sake message me and I'll subscribe right away![]()

Thirded. Or you guys could make a collaboration TL
Damnit. Where's DValdron and NikoZnate when you need them?I don't know enough about that time and everything surrounding it to be of any use.![]()
On the topic of Rivers, I feel I should point out that it was the desertification that forced people into the River Valleys that lead to the complex civilization in Egypt.
On the topic of Rivers, I feel I should point out that it was the desertification that forced people into the River Valleys that lead to the complex civilization in Egypt, so with the Sahara remaining green, it's very possible either only a small civilization develops or their is no Egyptian civilization at all.
I'm not sure about this. The Middle East was much greener 10,000 years ago, but civilization still developed in the great river valleys there.
The Nile is a great place to be-the soil is super rich due to the flooding deposits, there's plenty of fish, and even if the rest of the Sahara is green the presence of the river will ensure that water is more reliable year-to-year there than in the rest of the Sahara were droughts may still occur.
Their were no civilizations 10,000 years ago, the first civilizations only started appearing around 5,000 BCE.
Their were other large river systems in the Sahara at the time plus multiple Megalakes and numerous smaller lakes.
The Nile is also not a very good place for civilization to develop without external forces pushing people their given it's highly eratic.

That would be cool, someone should do that!Thirded. Or you guys could make a collaboration TL
So you finally came to the thread I linked you to eh?That would be cool, someone should do that!
Also, would this affect evolution of modern African animals or were they already evolved to their current forms at this point?
In all fairness, I gave you the ideaSo you finally came to the thread I linked you to eh?![]()
There'll probably be civilization in the area at that point, and those people will have to migrate somewhere else, so it might give whoever gets this influx of refugees either a power boost with all the new manpower or a crisis with keeping them fed.Another interesting thought. What if the Sahara turns into a desert say, 2,000 years ago instead of 5-6,000 years ago?
