An [[timelines:ASB]]-based [[offtopic:TL]] by [[offtopic:Max Sinister]] playing on a tilted [[offtopic:Earth]]. Inspired by Chris Wayan's [[http://www.worlddreambank.org/J/JAREDIA.HTM|Jaredia]] world (see also: [[offtopic:World Dream Bank]]), who named it in honor of Jared Diamond, who wrote in "Guns, Germs and Steel" about the theory that continents with a big west-east extension are especially favored in the competition for world domination (pigs and wheat do well in both [[offtopic:France]] and [[offtopic:China]], but Mexican corn took centuries to adapt to Ohio). Jaredia features a wide tropical zone from Java-Sumatra via East Asia and East Siberia to the Americas, so development of civilization should go way faster than IOTL. The TL starts with humans evolving from apes 5 million years before present, making it one of the few really long-term TLs. | An [[timelines:ASB timelines|ASB timeline]] by [[offtopic:Max Sinister]] playing on a tilted [[offtopic:Earth]].
