Your favorite alt-migrations

*Inhales*
Portuguese settling South Africa
Spanish colonizing Hawaii
Turkic Pannonia
Slavic Pannonia
Fully Germanized/Slavicized Baltics
French settlement of the Great Lakes region (Surviving New France or no Revolution)
More Chinese and other Asians migrating to California (British, French, or Independent California perhaps?)
Indians being brought as indentured servants to the American South like they were to Guyana and the West Indies IOTL (no Revolution TL?)
French settlement in Western Australia (also maybe the Dutch in Tasmania or NZ)
Indianized Swahili coast, Madagascar, African Horn, and Southern Arabia
A Gothic or Germanic state in the Balkans, and Slavic settlement in Northern Italy
Circassians, Armenians, Georgians, and other Caucasus peoples historically had small but powerful diasporas across several Islamic empires and the East Mediterranean region. Perhaps in a different world with different circumstances, they could have avoided being absorbed by the ruling class or majority and created larger distinct population exclaves.

My bro doing an AH speedrun

Respect for that mate
 
My ideas:
  1. French settlement of Northern Brazil/Equinoxiale
  2. Frankish, Alamanni, or Burgund Hispania
  3. Alans in Baetica/Andalusia
  4. Magyars in the Anatolia
  5. Have Japanese Christians/Kirishitans flee to Spanish colonies of the Philippines or California
  6. Kampampangans migrate to Southern Luzon
 
Hmm...
Dutch settlements in Australia.
Alans or other Iranian-speaking tribes in Dacia.
Spanish or Portuguese settlements in the Moluccas.
Definitely a Turkic Pannonia.
Scandinavian Groenland, and Eastern Canada.
Basque colonies in the Americas.
Turkic Thrace.
 
Ancestors of Romanians and Albanians likely lived close to each other (as linguistic evidence suggest) during early medieval. What if they switched places? So modern Albania is populated by Romance speaking people, while Romania is inhabited by *Albanians*?

Albanians speak paleo-Balkan language, possibly Illyrian, but it is not given. Albanians may be descendants of Thracians or Dacians. Illyrian theory is the most popular because of geographical location of Albania, corresponding to ancient Illyria. If *Albanians* live north of lower Danube instead, then I guess it would be widely believed, that they're of Dacian origin.

Would the Irish and the Basque live together or something? Perhaps an earlier Bernardo O'Higgins?

What route are the Indo-Europeans taking into China?
 
Bantu mIgration north along the Nile into Egypt where it goes from there.
Native American migration to Greenland to Iceland to somewhere in Northern Europe
 
And many groups on that list are Indo-Europeans. So what exact group is in China. Tochars probably would be most likely since they lived on nowadays Xinjiang.
Yeah, I was thinking of the Tocharians, though the Scythians or other nomadic Iranian peoples would also fit. I'd imagine them as standard 'barbarians conquer China, assimilate into population but keep a few customs'.
