Have you thought about adding a nation profile page for these countries?
- I'd like to eventually, but probably after I finish the timeline. By the end of this timeline (going all the way until the early 2000s), there will be more countries than now, and they will be quite different than they are currently. Because of that, I'd like to wait. Then, I could maybe put in a history section, talking about how they have changed over time. --Riction 02:31, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
It's a shame Byzantium has to lose the war all because they didn't want to side with the whiny Sryvijans (I spelled that off the top of my head, I deserve points for trying :D). Hopefully they can sort of pull out of the war when the world finally gangs up on Spain.
- I don't know if you remember me, Riction. We talked quite a bit around a year ago, if memory serves right. I do love your TL and am excited that you've returned, even if the Greeks are going to lose. :)

I enjoyed this timeline very much. It's an interesting idea that in your timeline timeline the 1850s technology is as advanced our 1930s-40s technology since the Asian civilizations didn't have dark ages like in Europe. I'm guessing that in the 1900s section the technology will surpass ours, I'm sure this is hard to write about. I will be looking forward to the next part of this timeline, when will you complete it do you know?

Terminology
Initially, I was using modern English terminology. However, after consideration, I wondered if it would not be better to use Indian names, such as Gana for assembly, or Chinese names, to describe democracy, since the nation I am talking about is China, and the Indians, being the first to be democratic, might have their terms become the "language of democracy". However, words like republic, democracy, parliament, minister, etc. would already have arisen in English ITTL due to influence from either native England or from the Romans and Greeks. Therefore, would the English abandon their preexisting words to use the words of the nation which colonized them? Should I refer to systems in the language of this wiki, even though said language is only spoken in one island country and in scattered immigrant populations? Currently, in the Chinese Revolution Section (which might be getting moved to its own page soon), I have a mixture of Indian, Chinese, and English terms used to describe the government.
