World Cup Alternate Timeline Photos/Logos

In honor of the 2006 FIFA World Cup, I present ot you a thread where we can put photo and picture-editing skills to the test! Things that can be edited: highlight photos, screen caps, progression trees (whatever that thing is called), logos, etc.

Here, I have a logo, associated with my TL, Coronation of the Hun. :D My readers might get a kick out of this one. ;)

From my Blenheim World timeline. The code of football played is English Football, a mix of rugby and association football. Major powers England, the Netherlands, and the East Indies boycotted the tournament because of France hosting it.

Even Axis victory (well, stalemate) timelines have a World Cup:

Go Brazil!

What happened here? Republican Spain, USSR still existant? Imperial Japan still about, along with Manchukuo... And Free France? As opposed to a still-existant Vichy France? And any significance to the Turkish flag?

Germany would allow Free France to compete? Did Germany do that willingly or was it pressure from FIFA and other nations?

Interesting...

Well it was mostly because I wanted to do some interesting flags, but go ahead and make a timeline out of it :p

I had in mind a Free France-in-Africa idea, like that in Shattered World etc.

Turkish flag is supposed to represent a Socialist Turkish state.

I have no idea what's going on really... :eek:

I'm tempted to do one based on Coronation of the Hun. But my readers would probably prefer an update. ;)

(BTW, did you see the 1328-1400 update, Thande? No comments from you on it, which was odd.)

Ah - yes I did - but sometimes it's hard to comment when you read something you find fine, because you're trying to think of something to say, and you end up sounding more critical than you actually are ;)

Would the COTH nations necessarily all have flags in the same sense as OTL, given that most of the divergences were before they came into common use?

They'll still get flags. For now they're still primarily used for armies and navies, but eventually they'll get popular to represent the nation itself. Burgundy's use of the flag for her grand warships is starting to have an effect...

Blow the FF. How many survivors were there from the Germany v USSR game?:D. Also Britain already had separate nations for games so I doubt you would have a UK team. Unless the stalemate includes a virtual occupation by Germany?

Or its a butterfly. :p

Actually, there's been talk of unifying the various teams into one United Kingdom national football team.

Basically it was just a butterfly because I thought it would be more interesting to put in a Union Jack rather than copying the existing England flag. It's not a Nazi occupied Britain.
