This Alternate History timeline published at AlternateHistory.com is described by its author Max Sinister as "the Mount Everest of AH". It starts with the death of Genghis Khan in 1200 (thus preventing the Mongol conquest of Russia, China and Persia) and goes until the year 1993. History changes a lot compared to our world, although some patterns seem to reappear.The complete timeline (including stories) is over 800 kB long.Read the Chaos TL on the AH.com forum, or the Stories from the Chaos TL (you have to register and log in for them), or read the full TL as a scenario. The timeline can also be read at the Alternate History Wikia. See also this material on the GURPS wikia.Inspired by… the RPG GURPS Alternate Earths - the scenario "Centrum", to be precise.It has managed to get its own fanfiction work called Samowar in Atlantis. Also was mentioned by Alternate History Hub in "The Alternate Timeline Iceberg Explained" (Part 1), Level 6. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed | |
| Chaos Timeline / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: A great general who was born on an island west of Italy, fought in Egypt, became emperor and brought the church under his control was already mentioned. Matthias Lieber, one of those who translated the Bible into German, is a Shout-Out to Martin Luther. And at the same time, a Shout-Out to the RPG 7th Sea. Friedrich von Hohenzollern who might be Frederick the Great born in an Atlantean log cabin and successfully running away from his tyrannical father. Explorers / travellers Markus Poller and Mao Polou "Kingdom of God" is the counterpart to Thomas More's utopian story, well, Utopia. Condolcessa, last one of the Florentine ruling family, reminds of Lucrezia Borgia, at least in that people claim both to have committed Parental Incest, though this hasn't to be true. "Christnacht" is a text about a rich but avaricious landowner, who isn't willing to share his wealth with others, until he is suddenly experiencing... something at the evening of christmas. And his name (Thimotheus) becomes synonymous with "miser". Sounds familiar? Lauritz von Arguim. Also has a brainless captain. A technical genius who's a Swede from Finland inventing a codebreaker machine. (Linus Torvalds, anyone?) Carlo Carosio of "La Fiamma" Canada has the presidents Joseph B. Franklin and Jacob Andrews (a war hero). Germany has a populist (from the left!) named Josef F. Krause who suggests that his party should split to have more success with the voters: "Marching seperatedly, striking together!" A guy named Röhm unsuccessfully protesting race-mixing. He barely escapes unscathed. | |

Heroic BSoD: All Logos (well, those whom we learn more about) seem to suffer from this at one point in their life. Fynstr has issues since his childhood, Topper lost many good countrymen at work, Tatjana becomes outright melodramatic (though fully justified) in the end. But the mere exchange from campus to workplace is often enough. | |

Stealth Pun: The standard dictionary for German is called "Plassen" after its creator. In our world, you'd use the "Duden" instead. note "Tuten und Blasen keine Ahnung" is a mediaeval German idiom, used to describe someone who has "no idea about tooting and blowing". | |

Former Regime Personnel | |
| Chaos Timeline / int_38ac6c7d | comment |
Former Regime Personnel: The entry at GURPS wikia suggests a term for a whole caste of high-profile PTSD victims, "ex-leaders", the collateral damage of the outcome of the Grand Finale. Effectively stripped of their former power, many of the people in leadership positions before the Velvet Revolution had their personal fortunes largely left intact, but still feel a void as a result of their loss of power. People obviously don't deal well with becoming obsolete over night. Alcoholism is said to be rampant among these guys. | |

Schizo Tech: Some of the sciences and technological advances are discovered or perfected earlier than in our history.

Call a Rabbit a "Smeerp": Justified, since history diverged in 1200 and people could well invent different names for things. America is called Atlantis, teddy bears are mishkas since they were invented in Russia, computer hackers are Logos (from 'logic'), angst is called horreur, a blitzkrieg is a molniya (Russian for 'lightning'), tanks are Walzen ('steamrollers' in German), capitalism is monetarism etc. A pretty complete list of the TL's alternate terminology can be found on these pages of AH.com's wiki. | |

Fictional Political Party: Several are mentioned, in Germany, Russia and France. German Atlantis has two big ones, "The free ones" and "the equal ones", who nickname each other "the naked ones" and "the blind ones"note Implying that the latter are blind for reality, and naked shamelessness for the former There's also a "House Russia" party is this timeline. That's also a trend in our world. note In our world, Russia had an "Our House Russia" party late in The '90s whose personell eventually gave way for "United Russia". In Israel, there's "Yisrael Beitenu" (Our House/Home Israel) that especially appeals to post-Soviet immigrants. And the Ukrainian party of Viktor Yushchenko was "Our Ukraine". Oh, and why has Poland a website called naszemiasto.pl ("our city") while Germany has meinestadt.de ("my city")? | |

Eagleland: Speaking German. In both parts of the Americas Atlantis. note Guess which ethnicity most Americans in our lifetime claim to hail from? Right, the Germans. Guess where else in the New World Germans liked to settle? Right, Southern Brazil and the Plata countries. And appropriately, this Germany has three eagles in its crest, among them a condor that got dubbed as an "Andean eagle" in this world. Even absorbs the old motherland at one point. Becomes a political clusterfuck and quickly puts on the Reich as a so-called technocracy, a crossbreed of "Prussia, the GDR and the American military-industrial complex should it ever seize power." Not that its major opponents were really more pleasant in this regard. | |

Vestigial Empire: A lot of the old European monarchies end this way. New Rome, descending first into Greater Italy and eventually into five seperate Italian nations. It Makes Sense in Context. The lands that once merged into the Union of the Old and New Russia eventually become, well, Russian Chaos. The remaining British Empire's royal family flee to New Albion (New Zealand) after Britain turns republican it got worse and eventually socialist. A civil war over succession issues eventually rocks the country in the 1960s and effectively splits it in two, the South Island behind the resident Cloud Cuckoo Lander and the North Island behind a certain Elizabeth. (Not that Elizabeth, though.) Hoo boy. | |

Christianity Is Catholic | |
| Chaos Timeline / int_a8a5e4ed | comment |
Christianity is Catholic: Other than in our world, Catholic Christianity didn't split except for some minor fringe movements, but power gradually shifted to the governments of the Catholic nations, somehow akin to the Anglican Church or Gallican Church in our world whose rituals and doctrine were mostly kept unchanged. In Nippon, the tenno is the head of the country's Catholic Church! The Pope was gradually reduced to a mere figurehead, but this changed unexpectedly again when he had to go to Australia Tirland Antipodia after the revolution in Britain. The nationalized and decentralized versions of Catholic Christianity are basically the Anglican Church and the concept of Gallicanism from our real history, but taken up to eleven. | |

A Degree in Useless: Subverted. The German technocracy generally scoffs at anyone studying humanities, minimizing their teaching to a "harmless enough" level, afraid of the potentially rising threat of pro-democratic freethinkers. Education in "hard sciences" and general blue collar vocational training is encouraged, supplemented by a Bread and Circuses approach in state propaganda. Surprisingly Realistic Outcome ensues when one of the stories depicts a young couple smuggling banned philosophy books from German Atlantis to a somewhat more democratic neighbouring country. | |

Failed Future Forecast: In-universe at least for any work of fiction done before the Logo and AI induced abortion of World War III but set 20 Minutes into the Future. The sci-fi universe "Ordo" wherein Germany's One World Order has expanded to the stars some centuries into the future. A work of a Vlachian sci-fi author Mircea Savu who imagined an inter-galactic civilization with lots of independent states. | |
