Introduction

Columbus discovers the Americas at the same as OTL. However, in the center of the Great Plains, there is an alien colony (Please Note: I do not intend this to be a Alien Space Bat, but a 'proper ' exploration). As a result of the colony, the native american tribes are clustered on the edges of the Continent, and due to slight tech leak, are more advanced than OTL. The Aztec, Mayan, and Incan empires are larger and more formidable. Into this, the European nations stumble. I may make this into a timeline.

  • Kalmar Union: King John I takes a hobby in cartography and decides he wants to recolonize the ancient Norse settlements in Greenland and the mystical "Vinland' hinted in the old books. He orders that a fleet of explorationary ships be commisioned. The KU already owned Greenland in this time period. Look what research can get you! Look at this! Please fix the map later. Contacts England about a future mutual military invasion of Scotland and eventual partition Note: I understand no one is playing England. I muust assume a mod will decide whether England will accept or not.
  • France: France continues to improve its military and economy.
  • Iroquois: The Iroquois start to send expeditions westward along the great lakes, hoping to come in contact with these so called aliens.
