====== Dominion of Southern America ====== Written by [[offtopic:Glen]]. An extensive timeline about a very different colonial history of North America (the "Southern America" of the title actually corresponds to the rough area of the southern half of the OTL USA). Besides this, the TL also focuses on the rest of the world in quite hefty detail. Though some patterns similar to OTL repeat, many of the countries created since the [[pods:pods|PoD]] of the TL are only vaguely recognizable or a far cry from what we associate them with in OTL. ---- ==== Premise and POD ==== In 1766, Josiah Martin becomes Governor of Quebec instead of Guy Carleton. Carleton becomes Governor of North Carolina in 1771. From there, the changes to the course of North American and later world history slowly pile up. ---- ==== Links ==== The master thread of the TL can be found [[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=155239|here]]. The original thread with discussion can be read [[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=149643|here]]. A thread chronicling the fate of the timeline's characters can be found [[http://alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=154976|here]]. ---- ==== TL-related Trivia and Media ==== //Dominion of Southern America// also includes a lot of cameos by various AH.com members, which Glen [[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=176980|was eager to encourage]]. ---- ==== Reception ==== A review of the TL can be found [[http://alternatehistoryweeklyupdate.blogspot.com/2011/08/showcase-dominion-of-southern-america.html|here]], on the [[offtopic:Alternate History Weekly Update]] blog. ---- ==== Awards ==== The timeline has won two [[alternate history:Turtledove Awards]]: * in [[alternate history:2011 winners|2011]], the **[[https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/attachments/turtledove-2011-new-18th-century-png.126279/|"Best New 18th Century Timeline"]]** category * in [[alternate history:2012 winners|2012]], the **[[https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/attachments/2012-continuing-18th-century-png.165166/|"Best Continuing 18th Century Timeline"]]** category ---- ==== Navigation ==== **[[early modern|Early Modern Timelines]]** **[[timelines:timelines_and_scenarios|Alternate History Timelines and Scenarios Main Directory]]**
