A timeline set in late Antiquity, written by Jaydoh. It can be read here.

As a minor initial POD, the king of the Visigoths isn't killed at the Battle of the Catalaunian Fields. The first major butterfly occurs when Attila the Hun doesn't die in 453, and instead goes on fighting the Roman Empires. As a result of the chaos he and his son after him manage to wreak, both Constantinople and Rome fall to barbarians before the end of the 5th century.

Features include:

• Lunden: a Frisian state in southern Britannia
• Noviodunum: a surviving Kingdom of Syagrius
• Visigothia: currently invading the Moors
• Alemannia: controls southern Italia and Epirus
• Zeugitana: a Latin state in North Africa
• Weihu: the Uyghurs, who are TTL's equivalent of the Avars
• Ostrogothia: with its capital in Constantinople
• Ashinids: OTL's Gokturk dynasty ruling ATL Persia
• Ægyptus: a strong (Miaphysite) successor state to the East Romans
