  1. The Last Hanover: The Life and Reign of Queen Charlotte

    Lovely update - I'll have to and re read to fully appreciate who's who I think Napoleon should defeat Russia in note 20, not France 😅

  2. Malê Rising

    Just so much world creation in your writing... Marvelous.

  3. WI: Andean civilizations develop writing

    I believe jaguars are ambush predators, and solitary animals. Neither quality lends themselves to animal husbandry.

  4. Malê Rising

    Sorry if this seems like spamming, but for the last week I’ve been re-reading the timeline, something which I don’t often do, even with my favourite books, so that speaks to its brilliance. Another video from the bbc - afro-futurism - quite Malêverse...

  5. Malê Rising

    This story from the BBC, about vicuña and the native peoples of their habitat being declared their custodians, made me think of the Malêverse http://www.bbc.com/travel/gallery/20180917-the-rarest-fabric-on-earth I’m not sure if it was mentioned, but how are endangered species in the Malêverse -...

  6. Malê Rising

    I think she may have become Empress in Africa, rather then Empress of Africa, so as not to appear as though she was claiming the entire continent

  7. African rice domesticated in fourth millennium BC

    What is your point in posting like this? I'm all for critique, but the way you do it is just nasty and dissmissive of the work that Jonathon has done. I think he has successfully outlined his POD as possible, if not necessarily probable, and none of your criticisms seem to exclude that, i.e...

  8. Malê Rising

    Enjoyed having more pf this world fleshed out. Speaking of Portugal and their recent Eurovision win, is there anything similar in the Malêverse?

  9. Lands of Ice and Mice: An Alternate History of the Thule

    What a delightful surprise to see this being added to - I do wonder about the dates of the Northern Seven Years War - we jump from the 1860s back to the 1600s

  10. Alternate Names for Regions of the World

    T develop yours and previous posters ideas, /u/ next to uvular consonants in Quechua sounds more like /o/, so Hispanised could be Antisú [with influence from Perú]/Antiso/Antisia, Chinchaisú/Chinchaiso/Chinchaisia (Chinchasa?), Contisú/Contiso/Contisia, and Collasú/Collaso/Collasia

  11. Prehistoric WI Eurasian steppe horses hunted to extinction instead of domesticated?

    Is that fast enought to make being hit by a spear or arrow more difficult?

  12. Prehistoric WI Eurasian steppe horses hunted to extinction instead of domesticated?

    I think it could be said that natural human curiosity would lead to someone trying to ride an animal they were in close contact with - children jumping onto domesticated oxen, for example. From there, it doesn't seem too great a leap to trying to ride a donkey, without the need for the horse as...

  13. Portuguese America and Southern Africa the Redux

    Very interesting as always. El Deserto Grande or El Gran Deserto sound more grammatical than Grande Deserto, although Desierto would be Spanish - is the Spanish in this timeline supposed to be closer to Portugues? You may have explained before, but I forget

  14. The Rise of the White Huns

    I'm enjoying this timeline immensely - what an ambitious scope! I'm also enjoying the guest interlude, but on both things I can't reslly offer any critiques of relevence The map is wonderful aswell, thought I think Sklavenia might be misspelt

  15. The Rise of the White Huns

    A cultural definition of Europe as the lands of Latin Christendom coalesced in the 8th century, signifying the new cultural condominium created through the confluence of Germanic traditions and Christian-Latin culture, defined partly in contrast with Byzantium and Islam, and limited to northern...

  16. To Ourselves, To New Paganism

    Just to update as quickly as possible! :p Seriously though, I'm finding this to be a fascinating resource on how paganism might evolve without Christianity - useful not just for alternate history but also conworlding in general - that I've been inspired. Keep it up!

  17. To Ourselves, To New Paganism

    I have little to say, other than this is fascinating and I look forward to reading more of your very individual and dry (in the sense of like a serious history book, not a flight of fancy) style ;):p:p

  18. Malê Rising

    Great maps, thanks to all who have participated in making them

  19. Malê Rising

    What a lovely end to a great timeline. Can't wait for the map. When did the Cape become a republic?

  20. Malê Rising

    I just wanted to point out that criticism of the map has no malice aforethought - it's just something that we can comment on definitively :D A thought occured to me - what is the state, globally, of capitol punishment in the Maleverse? Also you mentioned eugenics laws in Futurist France -...
