Yellowstone: 1936

Hello and welcome to the portal page of the Yellowstone: 1936 ATL. This timeline explores what happens when the Supervolcano Yellowstone erupts, ending life and civilisation as we knew it.

This will become a "live" timeline once nations are completely fleshed out and the background is completely set. This will mean it will unfold NOW - in the present.

This is a collaborative timeline. Anyone wishing to edit should state so on the talkpage and when making articles have the Under Construction template on the article. This is of paramount importance.

Background
Our point of divergence is in 1936. The world is in a Depression, Fascism is on the rise. Dust storms are making life hard for so many of those pioneers who migrated westward in the search of new lands and a new beginning. Hitler begins to rearm his nation, the Japanese begin to threaten the Chinese border. People don't think it can get any worse. They were wrong...

They did not know, under North America, pressures had begun to rise once more as the lava chambers began to become overly active once more. The ground began to shake, earthquakes began to be set off. Geologists flocked to the site and at once knew what was going to happen. A few days later, Yellowstone would erupt - changing the way people lived their lives and altering what would have happened to the planet.
