Alternative History:About

Alternate History or AH is a fictional genre that imagines what would happen if history had gone differently. It often begins by changing a single historical event, called the point of divergence or PoD, and tracing how this produces big changes in the world, diverging it from Our Timeline (OTL) and creating a new, alternate and parallel world. We are a community for creating and discussing a wide range of alternate timelines: large and small, ancient and recent, realistic and fanciful.
