==A Change==
  +
One of the original tenants of this TL was to leave the original event that led to the steep drop in population ambiguous, and leave the time directly following it vague. Clearly that is not working out, as for a good "history" section of your article, you need to explain the ENTIRE history of your nation, regardless of the misconceptions of the nation's citizens. Thus I have changed the POD from an ambiguous event to a disease that wipes out most of the world's population. I am using a disease because it provides a good way to kill off most of humanity while leaving its creations (e.g. cities) intact. I will also add to the regions page a number of the population in each general area, so you can use that for your pages. Thoughts? [[User:Bfoxius|Bfoxius]] ([[User talk:Bfoxius|talk]])

A Change

One of the original tenants of this TL was to leave the original event that led to the steep drop in population ambiguous, and leave the time directly following it vague. Clearly that is not working out, as for a good "history" section of your article, you need to explain the ENTIRE history of your nation, regardless of the misconceptions of the nation's citizens. Thus I have changed the POD from an ambiguous event to a disease that wipes out most of the world's population. I am using a disease because it provides a good way to kill off most of humanity while leaving its creations (e.g. cities) intact. I will also add to the regions page a number of the population in each general area, so you can use that for your pages. Thoughts? Bfoxius (talk)

Fair enough, would it be the Spanish flu? Saturn (Talk) 19:52, May 28, 2014 (UTC)

I am trying to leave it ambiguous.


I personally dislike this change. I preferred it ambiguous, so that people could make up what each country's respective disaster was, which made up the overall chaos. Also I thought the POD was supposed to be in 1850, and by 1900 everything had diverged? Now you only give us one year (or less) to work with (2014 to present), giving us almost no time at all to make anything. Also the first paragraph is worded in a very confusing manner.
