A point of divergence is a specific event in an Alternate History's or Alternate Universe's Backstory that occurs differently than it did in Real Life or canon. Most alternate history authors will change a single event, creating a "ripple effect", however, the point of divergence may range in importance and realism from a missing horseshoe nail to Time Travel and Alien Invasion.
Alternatively, an older name for this trope is "Jonbar hinge" — a reference to Jack Williamson's The Legion Of Time, in which such an event is pivotal.
Contrast Never Was This Universe.
This is a Super-Trope to Alien Space Bats, which covers points of divergence that are specifically supernatural in nature. See also What If?.

The world of Watchmen was identical to ours until the publication of Superman in 1938. In our reality, that kickstarted the Golden Age of Superheroes; in the Watchmen universe, that lead to ordinary people dressing up as costumed vigilantes and becoming crimefighters, leading to the dystopian alternate universe.

This is what Super RWBY IF is about. For instance, in Chapter 19, King Bob-omb, under the advice of one of his Bob-omb soldiers, shoots Xena into the arctic tundra. Thankfully, she lands near where General Ironwood and Esdeath live and the latter adopts her after finding out she lost her family. In addition, they get help for Dark Xena/Yagami much earlier while Seryu is never driven to insanity thanks to landing in the snow instead of slamming into a fire hydrant while trying to intercede in a "arguing couple's argument" (who were hired by Jacques). Though there are some exceptions such as Chapter 23 which turns into a crossover with the Sabrinaverse. In addition, starting with Hisuian Legend, the characters start seeing the alternate universes as psychic visions.

The Chaotic Masters:
Given the crossover setting and other Alternate Universe aspects, things are going to be different from canon. The primary POD in the story's present setting, however, is that during the Jackie Chan Adventures episode "Monkey A Go-Go", the Monkey King remembers his blood brothers and sets out to free them. Additionally, Jade is left behind at the shop while Jackie and Uncle go after the Noble Monkey; as a result, the Monkey King targets her, and hearing about his actions afterwards sees the Chan men return right away, leaving Daolon Wong to claim the Monkey power.
The Big Hero 6's fight with Baron von Steamer ends up being cut anticlimactically short due to having backup from Section 13, whom they're allied with due to having met the Chans.
During the Xiaolin Showdown over the Serpent's Tail, Omi is so distracted by learning about the Chaotic Masters' awakenings that he loses the match, allowing Jack and Wuya to win, where they lost in canon.
The events of Journey to the West did happen to a point, but it and reality diverged while the Monkey King was travelling with Tang Sanzang and he met the other two Chaotic Masters.

A Saga of Parallel Worlds diverges from canon when Hiroshi Yamauchi makes an urgent phone call to Norio Ohga on June 24, 1991. This sets into motion a chain of events that lead to a four-way console war between Nintendo, Sega, Microsoft, and Bandai.

Because I Knew You;
The original change is because Wanda sensed the spell to erase all memory of Peter Parker and was able to protect herself from being affected by it.
In the sequel, Multiverse of Madness: Clea Cut, this idea is basically deconstructed as there is no single point where the history of Earth-717 differed from the "prime" reality onwards but various different moments. Examples include Tony turning himself in to prison after Ultron was destroyed, Rogers killing Stark in a PTSD-induced breakdown in the fight in Siberia, and General Ross making a deal with Thanos to kill the ‘lesser’ half of Earth (i.e. the half that disagreed with Ross’s methods) once he had the Mind Stone (obviously Thanos just killed half of Earth at random anyway).

In Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story, the Homura Akemi seen in the game is the glasses-and-braids-wearing version seen in the beginning of Episode 10 in the anime. It turns out that the timeline Magia Record takes place in is one where she chose to not tell the Mitakihara girls about the Awful Truth regarding magical girls, witches, and soul gems. This prevented the severe rift it caused in the group, leading to Homura's relationship with the girls being a bit better than the original anime.

Subverted in the two-part mirror universe episode of Star Trek: Enterprise. The opening scene implies the point occurred when Zephram Cochrane spontaneously chose to murder the Vulcan explorers instead of peacefully meeting them during First Contact. However, Mirror-Phlox later determines this was not the case, as Earth and Mirror-Earth's histories had significant differences prior to First Contact, specifically with many classical authors writing different works of literature in each timeline, meaning the exact point is indeterminate.

The Simpsons: The "Treehouse Of Horror XXXIV" segment "Ei8ht" takes place in an Alternate Continuity in which Sideshow Bob successfully murdered Bart in "Cape Feare". The segment opens with the scene of Sideshow Bob singing "For He Is An Englishman" as part of Bart's Scheherezade Gambit, only this time he sees through the trick and brutally murders Bart as the tied-up Lisa watches helplessly. The segment then flashes forward to 2023, eschewing the show's usual Comic-Book Time by showing Lisa and the Springfield Elementary School children having since grown up.

Five Score, Divided by Four: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic ended after five seasons with a strange, Audience-Alienating Ending. It faded into obscurity a few years later, and by 2020 it's only a Cult Classic. This change nearly leads to a war between Canada and America.

In still another Turtledove series, the Timeline-191 series, the point of divergence is right before the battle of Antietam. In the real world, a Confederate officer carelessly threw away a copy of General Lee's Special Order 191; the Union found the orders, which not only let them thwart Lee's invasion of the north but almost completely destroyed the Army of North Virginia. In Turtledove's books, the orders are recovered by a Confederate soldier instead, meaning Lee steamrolls McClellan's army and eventually manage to capture the White House, forcing Abraham Lincoln to recognize Southern independence. This also leads to analogues for both World Wars, with the USA and CSA on opposite sides.

Justice League: The Episode The Savage Time occurs when Vandal Savage uses time travel to send information to his past self, allowing him to usurp Adolf Hitler in 1944, managing to bring the Nazi Superweapons into reality, and when D-Day happened, not only were they repulsed, but as said by a future Batman, it was "the beginning of the end" for the Allies, and the beginning of his new empire. Therefore, the league, who were displaced in time when the change occurred, have to Set Right What Once Went Wrong and set history back on course.

Turning Point: Fall of Liberty: The PoD is the death of Winston Churchill from a car accident in 1931, instead of surviving as in Real Life. Without his leadership, Britain quickly falls to the Nazis in World War II. The Nazis, along with Fascist Italy and Imperial Japan proceed to conquer their areas of interest, while the Germans built up the military even more. Eventually they launch a full-scale invasion of the United States in 1952.

Reality Collides: The Ezekiel Chronicles: Since this version of Ezekiel reincarnated from another world, his actions have made many changes to Total Drama Island.
Ezekiel asked Eva to shove him and DJ off the thousand-foot cliff if they seemed like they’d chicken out. Eva ended up shoving them (and Courtney by accident) into the safe zone, giving the Killer By an advantage in the first challenge.
Between the advantage of winning the cliff diving and Ezekiel calming down the argument between Courtney and Duncan, the Killer Bass rallied together and made a perfect hot tub, winning the challenge.
A walk around the island helped Tyler stumble into a hidden cave that would become a safe haven for the Killer Bass dubbed the Aquarium.
Ezekiel’s warning to Katie and Sadie about how they were most likely to be eliminated if they lost the Awakeathon motivated them to try their best. When the Bass lost, Sadie was ultimately eliminated. But the loss motivated the team to work harder to win Dodgebrawl.
Because Eva wasn’t eliminated in the second challenge, her athleticism and Ezekiel’s cunning helped the Bass dominate in the dodgeball challenge.
The talent challenge had both teams give their best efforts to win. The Screaming Gophers had guitar playing and singing from Trent, fire baton twirling from Beth, and a ballet performance from Heather (who didn’t steal Gwen’s diary and read it on TV). The Killer Bass included extreme juggling from Eva, Harold’s beatboxing, and a violin rendition of a song from Steven Universe performed by Courtney.
Without Sadie getting herself and Katie distracted during the wilderness survival challenge, nobody got lost.
However, because Ezekiel, Geoff, and Harold caught fish for the team’s dinner, the food drew a bear to the campsite. The brawl between the Bass and the bear led to Eva suffering a broken leg, leading to her elimination.

In The Boys (2019), the point of divergence is World War II. During the war, the Nazi scientist Frederick Vought created the Super Serum Compound V through experiments on concentration camp inmates. As the tide turned against Nazi Germany, he defected to the United States used his serum to create the first successful superhero Soldier Boy. Impressed by his work, the US government pardoned Vought and he subsequently founded the corporation Vought International, which creates his own line of corporate-backed superheroes that have become part of The Boys universe.

A Discussed Trope in The Flash (2023). Barry Allen initially believes this timeline to have been altered by him trying to stop his moms' death, but comes to realize that things had changed long before that event, such as an Aquaman who was never born and a much older Batman. In a conversation with this Batman, he's told that rather than creating a point of divergence for an alternate timeline, he's intersected with a vaguely similar but quite different universe. Rather than a point of divergence it is more a point of intersection.

In The Long Earth series, the further one steps away from Datum Earth ("Prime" Earth), the farther in time the point of divergence with the Datum is. The first hundredth or so Earths are nigh identical to Earthnote apart from being untouched by civilisation since humanity only developed on Datum Earth, since they diverged only a couple of years ago. As one moves further, the landscape changes more and more drastically as geology took a different path further away in the past (including a series of Earths where there is a large sea in the middle of North America). The furthest explorations reach versions of Earth that diverged so long ago that they can't even support life as we know it.

In BioShock Infinite, the divergence point is the 1893 World Fair, or rather, the construction of the floating city of Columbia for said fair. More precisely, the divergence point is the baptism of Booker DeWitt, which created Father Comstock and ultimately made Columbia possible. In-game, Elizabeth has the power to use "tears" as divergence points to enter alternate timelines.

Handmaid: There are actually two points that divert this fic from The Tudors (and technically real life). The first is that Henry VIII, at Katherine of Aragon's urging, revives the handmaid system to take a lady in waiting on as a handmaid to bear children on Henry and Katherine's behalf, rather than Henry deciding to divorce Katherine. They ask Anne Boleyn to be the handmaid, and she happily accepts, having no aspirations on the throne itself because of the other point of divergence-she falls for Katherine instead of Henry. The end result is the English Reformation is stalled-if not stillborn entirely-since Henry never clashed with the Catholic Church, Henry and Anne's son Edmund becomes King of England, and the unification of England and Scotland happens much sooner than real life when he marries Mary of Scotland.

The Blacksmith's Apprentice doesn't explicitly show the moment when everything changed, but Hiccup's reflections basically reveal that, in this version of events, he was kept too busy during the raid where he shot down the Night Fury in canon to make the attempt. As a result, he had a far poorer performance in dragon training and was officially disinherited by Stoick, leading to him being basically the village thrall a few years later.

Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg, a mod for Hearts of Iron 2 and 4, has their POD be the sinking of the Lusitania. After seeing the threat of America joining the war, the Kaiser puts a stop to unrestricted submarine warfare. Without America to relieve the weary Entente, Germany then begins to pull off multiple other points of divergence, including winning the war in the East and getting grain from Ukraine, evading starvation from the British blockade, which is in turn broken in a Second Battle of Jutland, and capitalizing on the French mutiny during the Nivelle Offensive, which allows them to place Paris under siege, resulting in France's capitulation and thus leaving Britain alone. Britain then sues for a Peace with Honor in 1921, giving Germany supremacy in Europe and radically changing how the world is by the 1940s.

Another Turtledove series, The War That Came Early diverges from our timeline when the German ambassador to Czechoslavakia is assassinated by a Czech nationalist while Hitler is negotiating over the Sudetenland in 1938. This prompts Hitler to invade Czechoslovakia, with Britain and France declaring war on Germany in turn. Germany has to fight to get Czechoslovakia instead of taking it over without a fight, and as a result loses the momentum that let them take most of Europe in real life. Instead they wind up in a bloody two-front slog for most of the rest of the series. On a smaller scale, Jose Sanjurjo in Spain listens to some good advice, leaves a bit of baggage behind, and survives the plane ride that killed him in real life. Because of the early outbreak of World War II, the Spanish Republicans are saved by aid from the Allies rather than being defeated in 1939, and Spain also turns into a stalemate.

The Choices of Earth basically diverges from canon because Jack concludes "It won't kill Martha Jones to put her knickers back on long enough to make a phone call", rather than accepting Gwen's 'warning' not to interrupt Martha's honeymoon.

Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise has its point of divergence after the game's tutorial. In the manga, Shin dies by throwing himself off a ledge before Kenshiro's last attack takes effect, and the Yuria who had been seated on his throne is revealed to be a mannequin. In this game, Shin dies from Kenshiro's attack, and Yuria is nowhere to be seen — not even as a mannequin. Kenshiro learns of the city of Eden afterwards, where Yuria may be found. From there, most of the manga's events play out with Eden at the center of it all.

The world of The Venture Brothers features "super science" and numerous legitimately super-powered heroes and villains, but has otherwise seen nearly all of the same media and societal progress. Throughout the series, several mentions of made of events taking place differently in reality (ex.Lloyd Venture, grandfather of Rusty, was actually the first person on the moon in 1902; Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper did not die in a plane crash in 1959, but instead that was a cover for their becoming the supervillains Red Mantle and Dragoon, etc.) but by far the oldest possible PoD mentioned is that the Greuthungi chieftains Saphrax and Alatheus did not kill Roman Emperor Flavius Valens as they did in reality. It is possible that it happened even earlier (Archimedes is mentioned as having worked on the ORB), but Saphrax and Alatheus is the first stated difference from our reality.

Despite Fate/strange Fake having no actual reason to diverge, it just did. Part of it is because Zelretch specifically pins his hope on sending in a Spanner in the Works to avert a possible Bad Future.

In his Crosstime Traffic series, each alternate timeline visited has a different POD:
Gunpowder Empire: Marcus Agrippa lived long enough to oversee the (successful) conquest of Germania by Rome.
Curious Notions: Imperial Germany won World War I, and later occupied the USA.
In High Places: The Black Death was much worse, leading to a new form of Christianity and Islam spreading as far north as France. A second timeline visited is speculated to be one where the Romans lost the Samnite Wars, leading to no Roman Empire and technological stagnation.
The Disunited States of America: The newly independent Thirteen Colonies were unable to agree on a constitution, leading to them eventually breaking away into their own nations.
The Gladiator: The US capitulated in the Cuban Missile Crisis and later the Vietnam War, leading to the spread of communism across the globe.note However, since both POV characters are from this timeline, and learn their history from a biased curriculum, it's left vague if that is the true POD.
The Valley-Westside War: The Cold War turned hot in 1967, leading to The End of the World as We Know It. The main characters from the home timeline are trying to figure out exactly why it happened.

In War Front: Turning Point, Hitler is killed in the early days of the war, and the new chancellor is much more competent. Under his leadership, Operation Sea Lion succeeds, and Britain falls to Germany. However, this also means that Germany never attacked the Soviet Union, and the Soviets build up their forces in preparation to strike at them.

In the Fallout series, the PoD is shortly after World War II. The transistor (invented in 1947 in reality) wasn't invented until the 2060s, leading to desktop computers, robots, and other technology to use vacuum tubes instead, remaining bigger and bulkier, giving the series its Raygun Gothic and Zeerust aesthetics. For unclear reasons, this also stifled societal development, leaving the world stuck in the social norms of the The '50s.

Ultimate Universe (2023): Thanks to the Maker's interference, the history of Earth-6160 has radically shifted from 1963 onwards, changing from a Close-Enough Timeline to a place where the Maker can play God as he sees fit without worrying about superheroes being a potential Spanner in the Works. Resultantly, it's an Alternate History that bears little resemblance to the mainstream Marvel Universe:
The Maker prevents Peter Parker from being bitten by the spider, thus preventing the creation of Spider-Man and by extension any of the heroes who followed on from or were inspired by him.
Loki pulled off a successful coup with the Maker's help and is now the King of Asgard with Thor kneeling before him. The Bifrost Bridge is also destroyed, preventing Asgard from ever interfering with human affairs.
The Fantastic Four never get empowered by cosmic rays thanks to the Maker delaying their rocket launch. He also decides to murder Johnny, Sue, and Ben out of pure spite.
Howard Stark and Obadiah Stane essentially become the Iron Man and War Machine of this world but are still primarily industrialists and war profiteers rather than genuine crime fighters.
Bruce Banner still becomes the Hulk but is nudged into seeking spiritual enlightenment to deal with his rage, resulting in Bruce making a name for himself as a world-renowned Warrior Monk with a flock of loyal followers instead of living in infamy as a Psychopathic Man Child of mass destruction.
The Harada (Silver Samurai) and Yoshida (Sunfire) families have united to form a powerful alliance that possesses great influence over the entire Asia-Pacific region. Illyana and Piotr Rasputin also seem to have become equally powerful oligarchs with their family boasting a reputation of being The Dreaded.
Both Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne are listed as inactive in the Maker's records, with Reed now in possession of their "Pym Generator".
Dr. Strange is listed as a captive in the Maker's records, with Reed in possession of the Eye of Agamotto.
Much to the Maker's own confusion, Earth-6160 never had a Super Soldier program, and therefore never had a Captain America at all. Even he can't figure out what became of that world's Steve Rogers. Tony and Doom manage to find him frozen in the Arctic, but nobody knows who he is, raising even further questions. However, Reed was able to confirm (or cause) the death of Earth-6160's Bucky Barnes and destroyed Jim Hammond (the original Human Torch).

The Kelvin Timeline Star Trek movies were named as such after the timeline-diverging event in the 2009 movie's prologue where the USS Kelvin (and with it Kirk's father) is destroyed by time-displaced future Romulans whereas none of this happened the Prime Timeline. Both timelines exist running parallel to each other and have maintained sporadic contact with Star Trek: Enterprise being the only canon they share.

Kwami Magi Homura Magica:
The story happened entirely because in one timeline, Sayaka talked about Paris's heroes where Homura could hear her.
If not for the same processes that created Cat Blanc, Homura would have remained a unpowered citizen of Japan, not a Magical Girl.
In the new reality created by the wish, the Mage had more time to work on the Miraculouses, which led to a very different situation where potential Magical Girl candidates were given power by the Kwami instead of the Incubators, leading to a reality where the Incubators are not able to continue their game due to being outcompeted, forcing them to change tactics to a less efficient, readily combated form of energy gathering as the Balancers and their new creations, the Branded.
Due to Master Fu being able to save all of the Miracle Boxes and all but the Butterfly and Peacock Miraculouses when the Order fell, Marinette and the heroes of Paris had access to a lot more Miraculouses to hand out. On top of the existence of the Gifted, this led to a different heroic roster in both members and identities.
Because Mami had Ziggy as her mentor instead of Kyubey, her life outside of her work in the new reality is a lot healthier, and alongside an implied better relationship with Kyoko, she also has a companion in the form of Nagisa before she met Homura, Sayaka, and Madoka.

Celestina Shoukan: The fic diverges from canon shortly after Japan is summoned to the New World. Thanks to one of Alicia's inventions, Celestina mainland has been transferred to the new dimension too, and, along with her, Japan's fleets. This boosts the country's offensive capabilities, therefore allowing it to not bank it all into playing pacifist.

Several chapters of All Assorted Animorphs AUs radically diverge from canon due to one small change.
"What if they were caught during their first mission?" happens because Jake-as-Homer went slightly closer to the Sharing members' meeting on the beach. As a result, the Animorphs become the Yeerk Empire's most valuable hosts, but surprisingly the world isn't doomed.
"What if they saved Jake's family?" happens because Tobias points out that it won't take the Yeerks long to find a genetic match between Jake and Tom. Since Jake gets his family to the Hork-Bajir valley as soon as possible, he doesn't cross the Despair Event Horizon and Tom's second Yeerk dies before he can become a serious threat.

Where We Don't Belong: The main premise of the story is the characters of XC3 interfering with the plots of XC1 and XC2.
Not only do we have the Ouroboros, who have most of their powers and memories of XC3, but we also have the Heroes and several major characters and minor NPCs from that game, along with several members of Moebius, who have all been reimagined in what could have been their lives in the original worlds, with Riku and Manana being the only exceptions. Ontos notes that this is a consequence of their existences melding into the worlds, allowing them to exist within the events of XC1 and XC2 without remembering Aionios, with Riku further clarifying that the former denizens of Aionios are not supposed to be present in the past.
Ashera is a famous Colony 9 soldier, with a tendency to refer to Dunban as "Teach".
Juniper is a Gormotti archer mercenary. They're still a half-Blade (even though it was implied such a thing never existed before the Architect's gift at the end of X2), and on the run from the Praetirum.
Zeon is a guardsman at Alcamoth.
Nimue appears as a Blade in Garfont Village, on the run from the Indoline Praetorium.
Teach is a warrior monk of the Indoline Praetorium with Isurd and Miyabi as his Blades. He is still a Blade Eater, but hides his core.
Triton makes a cameo in Alrest as a pirate captain along with Irma and Fiona.
Dirk shows up as a rather infamous Ardainian soldier who begins antagonizing Taion, with a blade named Zahak that resembles his Moebius armour.
Ethel is a member of Colony 6's Defence Force, with Bolearis serving under her as usual.
Segiri is an awakened member of the Machina under Egil, alongside her sister Fugiri, who was known as Number 13 in Aionios.
Cammuravi shows up as a member of Torna, though it's unknown if he's a Flesh Eater or still a normal Blade.
X and Y, being among the original Moebius, appear with their memories maintained, with their goal being to ensure Aionios is recreated.
Eunie encounters several High-Entia she encountered in Aionios within Alcamoth.
Taion discovers that Kyrie is a Driver recruited by Mórag, with Kyrie's Blade being Finch.
Due to remembering Nia mention that she was once saved by a Vandham, Mio manages to prevent Vandham's death by seemingly taking his place in performing a Heroic Sacrifice. Despite A and Y's best efforts to prevent her interference from saving him, Sena's interlink leads to Vandham surviving the encounter with Torna.

Sliders, which deals with parallel universes on a regular basis, often has its main characters deduce the point of divergence between the universe they are currently in and their home universe (Earth Prime). In the pilot, the point of divergence between Earth Prime and the Communist-ruled USA world is the outcome of The Korean War (loss for the US as opposed to a draw). In another episode, World War II lasts for several years longer than expected, resulting in a different president being in office during the Roswell incident. Unlike most other worlds, this guy decides to make the knowledge of aliens public, forming a trade partnership with them. By the turn of the century, the US has ubiquitous Artificial Gravity and near-perfect health, and an almost-successful manned mission to Mars has taken place a few years prior.

Dragon Ball Multiverse is a tournament between twenty different universes, each leading to their universes strongest warriors being radically different groups. The canon universe is Universe 18, and Future Trunks's universe is Universe 12.
Universe 1 and 10 were universes where the Supreme Kais decided to intervene in the affairs of mortals after Bibidi attempted to release Majin Buu. The two universes diverged from each other by the absence of the Kais in Universe 10.
Universe 3 is a universe where Bardock successfully rallied the Saiyans into rebelling against Frieza, killing him before he could transform by blasting him with an Oozaru army. The Saiyans, sans Bardock, were killed in turn by Dr. Raichi, but not before Kami fused into King Piccolo to repel their invasion of Earth.
Universe 4 is a universe where Super Buu absorbed Vegeta before the latter could release Fat Buu. Goku lost the subsequent fight and got absorbed along with Gohan, Goten, Piccolo, and Trunks. Buu spared Earth, but not before absorbing Bulma as a final farewell.
Universe 6 is a universe where Goku didn't intervene in Gohan's fight against Bojack, leading to the Galaxy Warriors killing the Z Fighters.
Universe 7 is a universe where Nail, on Guru's orders, fused with every Namekian he could find before Frieza's forces could kill them, becoming a Physical God and renaming himself Gast Carcolh. The Dragon Balls no longer exist, but Gast is capable of defending his universe by himself.
Universe 8 is a universe where Krillin killed Vegeta on Earth, leading to him, Gohan, and Bulma being killed by Frieza on Namek when they finally summoned Porunga. Goku and Nail subsequently fought and lost a two-man war against the Cold Empire.
Universe 9 is a universe where Cooler blew up Goku's pod before it ever reached Earth. Frieza and Cooler came to blows over this, with Cooler coming out on top and killing Frieza. With the technology afforded to them by the Red Ribbon Army, the human Z Fighters became the strongest force of their universe.
Universe 11 is the universe where Cell never showed up. Kami refused to fuse with Piccolo, nor did he let Goku and especially Vegeta use the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, but Goku and Krillin were able to befriend the Androids. Trunks returned to his future and used the remote to kill the future Androids, and was in turn killed by Imperfect Cell; that universe is implied to be Universe 15. Meanwhile, the past Z Fighters were woefully unprepared for when Babibi released Majin Buu.
Universe 13 is a universe where Kakarot never landed on his head as a baby, and fulfilled his mission to kill all humans before Raditz came to collect him. Vegeta, Nappa, Raditz, and Kakarot went on to destroy the Cold Empire.
Universe 16 is a universe where Vegetto didn't drop his shield after getting absorbed by Super Buu, thus never defusingnote this was written before Dragon Ball Super established that Potara fusion is only permanent if a Supreme Kai is one of the components.
Universe 17 is a universe where Gohan gave up in his final clash against Cell, leading to Cell's victory over the Z Fighters. With Future Trunks dying here, his home universe, Universe 14, continues to be terrorized by Androids 17 and 18, who killed the fetal Cell when Bulma accidentally lured them back to Dr. Gero's laboratory.
Universe 20 is a universe where the blast meant to throw Broly into the sun missed, leading to him coming back a few years later, now strong enough to overpower even a Majin Buu that had absorbed all the other Z Fighters.

It's implied in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire that ORAS is an alternate timeline to the original games, Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, and the point of divergence is that in the Ruby and Sapphire timeline, the Ultimate Weapon from Pokémon X and Y was never created, meaning Mega Evolution never became a concept there.

This And That: The divergence happens twofold:
Instead of just one Hextech Crystal, Powder managed to grab two from the heist. This leads to the one that she didn't use as a bomb to teleport her from Zaun and to the City, leading to her arrival in the Library and meeting Angela.
The war with the Sephirot took longer than canon, leading to Angela losing nearly all of the Light she stole during the White Nights and Dark Days, delaying the opening of the Library beyond nine months.

Code Geass: The earliest known change from real-world history is the Celts throwing the Romans out of England and winning independence sometime around 1 ADnote The date given for this uses the franchise's Alternative Calendar, but other historical events mentioned roughly line up with the Gregorian calendar. However, even in the series' universe, this is somewhat suspect; it's noted that the first historical record of this event was a book written centuries later, and there are theories that the whole thing was made up to give Britannian rulers the Divine Right of Kings.

Fate/Grand Order itself diverges from FSN because of currently unspecified reasons that have resulted in only one Holy Grail War being held in Fuyuki, the formation of the Chaldea Security Organization, and the Evils of Humanity being laser focused on specifically carrying out their plans in this timeline. Beyond the main story, there are also several Servants derived from diverging points in the timeline:
EMIYA Alter comes from the Fate/stay night Heaven's Feel Bad End "Superhero" (also known as "Mind of Steel").
Assassin EMIYA is a Kiritsugu that was never hired by the Einzberns, so he never met Irisviel, causing him to fall further into despair.
The Lion King/Lancer Altria variants are from timelines where Altria mainly used Rhongomyniad instead of Excalibur.
The game's second major plot arc, Cosmos in the Lostbelt, features seven alternate timelines, each with their own point of divergence. What sets these timelines apart is that they diverged so much that they would be pruned by the World, for they were seen as dead ends for humanity:
The first Lostbelt, set in Russia, diverged in AD 1570 when an asteroid struck Earth and plunged it into a new ice age. The Russian tsar of the time, Ivan the Terrible, ordered his court mages to fuse the few surviving humans with Demonic and Phantasmal Beasts, creating a race of Beast Men called the Yaga. However, the Yaga were forced to spend all of their ability on merely surviving in the Death World Earth had become, and were therefore incapable of advancement and thus pruned.
The second Lostbelt, set in Scandinavia, diverged in 1000 BC when Surtr chose to defy his prophesied role in Ragnarok and set the entire world, not just Scandinavia, aflame. It took all of the Norse gods except Skadi to seal him away in a Heroic Sacrifice — but Surtr's rampage scarred the world so badly that it was incapable of supporting more than ten thousand humans at any given time.
The third Lostbelt, set in China, diverged in 210 BC when Emperor Qin Shi Huang discovered the secret to immortality. With eternal life in his hands, he set about conquering foreign lands until he had control over the entire planet. However, he hoarded all technological advancement for himself, set about planning the defense of the world rather than expanding outward from it, and left humans in a state of blissful ignorance, lacking education and expected to till the land until they reached a certain age, when they would be euthanized before the troubles of old age could affect them.
The fourth Lostbelt, set in India, has no specific date of divergence (the calendar used in that Lostbelt counts the Maha-Yuga Cycle rather than the Gregorian calendar), but is stated to have diverged at the end of the Kurukshetra War (which would put it around 3000 BC), when Arjuna, rather than coming to terms with his inner darkness, hit the Despair Event Horizon upon seeing the carnage that the war brought and vowed to become a god so he could erase evil from existence. He would succeed, merging with nearly the entire Hindu pantheon to become the Lostbelt's sole god, and sped up the Yuga Cycle to weed out what he deemed "evil" and reach his perfect world sooner. However, he ended up accelerating it too much, and between that and his impossibly high standards, he was doomed to drive humanity to extinction.
The Fifth Lostbelt, Atlantis, diverges in 12,000 BC, when Sefar, the White Titan that destroyed Atlantis, is stopped early by the Greek Gods (who are Alien AI) fusing together into a Humongous Mecha. With the Greek Pantheon remaining in power, the world gained incredibly advanced technology, but all of humanity was essentially enslaved to the Olympians. Not to mention that Zeus was planning to get rid of humanity anyway as part of his plan to depart into space.
The Sixth Lostbelt, Avalon le Fae, set in Great Britain, was initially believed to diverge in AD 510, when Morgan Le Fay was chosen to ascend to Britan's throne instead of Artoria. In truth, it has the same divergence point as the fifth, but diverges in the opposite direction. In this Lostbelt, Excalibur was never forged, and so Sefar was left to rampage unchecked and destroyed the world until it was just an endless ocean. The six faeries who were supposed to forge Excalibur were banished from Avalon forever for their sins, but they betrayed and poisoned the last surviving god Cernunnos to build a new Britain on the foundation of his and the primordial dragon Albion's corpses, and gave rise to the six fairy clans to rebuilt civilization. But since the Faeries lack creativity and are capricious by nature, it all only amounted to them repeatedly exterminating each other. It took Morgan le Fay establishing a totalitarian dictatorship to ensure even the smallest ounce of stability. And on top of that, the remaining humans are kept as literal livestock produced in factories, as said humans are technically clones of the last true human, Cernunnos' priest who the first fae tore apart but kept alive so they could have create more. Also, the land itself is trying to wipe the faeries out as it accumulates their collective curses and sins to birth monstrous Calamities to destroy Britain. And the titular Avalon le Fae is birthed (twice after the first fails) to create the sword that the original six did not in order to correct that sin. Notably, the circumstances of this POD result in it having an EX Divergence Depth, because Sefar effectively reset human history to zero - there is literally no shared history between this world and Pan-Human History.
The Seventh Lostbelt, Nahui Mictalan, set in South America, diverged at around 65 million BC. Or at least, it appeared this way - the actual point of divergence is at 300 million BC, when the Chixulub comet arrived at Earth much earlier than expected. The alien fungi it was carrying, which eventually become the Mesoamerican Pantheon and empower mankind in Proper Human History, ended up empowering the dinosaurs instead. Humans ended up evolving much earlier as a result. The problem is that this meant humans were around when ORT, the Ultimate One of the Oort Cloud, arrived. In Proper Human History, ORT's impact with Earth causes the extinction of the dinosaurs, but it then goes into hibernation since the humans it was tasked to destroy don't exist yet. Here, humans were around when it arrived, leading ORT to scour the world. Mankind was wiped out in a mass sacrifice to empower King Camazotz with the strength to defeat ORT, while the dinosaurs (now a race called the Deinos) migrated underground, gaining a new sun in the form of ORT's heart. While the changes to this timeline are more profound than even the sixth Lostbelt, it's still not truly a Lostworld as it still relies on a Cosmic Keystone to maintain itself with the difference being that Lostbelt ORT is that very lynchpin due to having consumed the Tree of Emptiness during its "war" with mankind.

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is an alternate timeline to Fire Emblem: Three Houses, with its major point of divergence being Shez's survival after they and their fellow mercenaries were attacked by Byleth, after which they end up saving the leaders of the three houses from bandits in Byleth's stead. From there, they go on to rescue Monica, a student kidnapped by Those Who Slither In The Dark, forcing the villains to accelerate their plans and causing the Fodlan civil war to break out years earlier.

The Tenn Duology:
The divergence between the ending of The Tragedy of Invader Tenn and the start of The Rise of Tallest Tenn is based around Tenn's decision whether or not to fulfill her mission to conquer Meekrob.
Tenn's Heel–Face Turn delays the conquest of Meekrob long enough for Tak to take on the mission for herself, managing to prove herself worthy of being an Invader after all.
Tenn's presence onboard the Resisty's ship during their confrontation with the Massive means she's able to save them from having to self-destruct it.

Fate/kaleid liner PRISMA☆ILLYA diverges from the main Fate/stay night and Fate/Zero (and Fate/hollow ataraxia) timeline in that instead of helping the Einzberns in the Fourth Holy Grail War, Kiritsugu chose to stay with Irisviel and Illya instead and killed the Einzberns, in addition to discovering the truth about the Holy Grail and destroying it with Irisviel's help. The Fourth Holy Grail War continued without them, and judging by the presence of a Lord El-Melloi II (Waver) and Caren being in Fuyuki (as she came to replace Kirei after his death in the main timeline), Kayneth still died and Kirei died. Illya was also born later.
It's not clear what caused the decline of magic in Miyu's timeline, other than the fact that Pandora (Erika) never opened her box.

Several The Conversion Bureau Deconstruction Fics include these to address why the character of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic behave so differently from canon.
The Conversion Bureau: The Other Side of the Spectrum: Lyra Heartstrings going on a scuba diving trip finding the Artifact of Doom that corrupted Celestia into the tyrant bent on converting humanity.
Spectrum: Cadence never becoming an alicorn meant the events of "A Canterlot Wedding" and "The Crystal Empire" went far longer and had far greater casualties without her powers, resulting in Equestria becoming more hostile.
The Negotiations-verse: Their worlds sun was dying, with evacuating Equestria being Celestia's real motive. Celestia's desperation to saver her people causing them to become the villain at present.

Shattered Skies: The Morning Lights: The divergence happens during Smile Pretty Cure's Final Battle: instead of ceasing to exist after sacrificing himself to revive Emperor Pierrot, Joker's consciousness remains alive, aware, and able to feel pain as his creator suffers a humiliating defeat. Joker dies cursing Pierrot's cowardice... and shortly after awakening in the afterlife, a glimpse of the fundamental meaninglessness of his mortal life breaks him further. The Joker who was once a mere Hope Crusher becomes a full-on Omnicidal Maniac, and begins formulating a plan to wage war on all reality.

Nasuverse:
An unspecified event around 300 AD is mainly responsible for why there are Dead Apostle-centric timelines (Tsukihime, Witch on the Holy Night, Melty Blood) and the Fate timelines instead of timelines where both concepts are prominent. In the Fate timelines, the Dead Apostle threat is mainly under control, unlike in the Dead Apostle-centric timelines. The Material book for Lord El-Melloi II Case Files reveals that the battle between Zelretch and the Crimson Moon took place in 300 AD, but it doesn't really explain what might have gone differently to have caused the divergence.
Fate/kaleid liner PRISMA☆ILLYA diverges from the main Fate/stay night and Fate/Zero (and Fate/hollow ataraxia) timeline in that instead of helping the Einzberns in the Fourth Holy Grail War, Kiritsugu chose to stay with Irisviel and Illya instead and killed the Einzberns, in addition to discovering the truth about the Holy Grail and destroying it with Irisviel's help. The Fourth Holy Grail War continued without them, and judging by the presence of a Lord El-Melloi II (Waver) and Caren being in Fuyuki (as she came to replace Kirei after his death in the main timeline), Kayneth still died and Kirei died. Illya was also born later.
It's not clear what caused the decline of magic in Miyu's timeline, other than the fact that Pandora (Erika) never opened her box.
An alien supercomputer embedded in the Moon by Precursors, its subsequent discovery by humans, and the Aylesbury Ritual being held in the 1970s instead of its prophesied time, thus triggering the calamitous Overcount/1999 event is responsible for the divergence of the Fate/EXTRA timeline.
Fate/Apocrypha happens because Darnic Prestone Yggdmillennia steals the Holy Grail from Fuyuki during the Third Holy Grail War, causing the Yggdmillennia faction to rise in prominence. And the Einzberns summoned Amakusa Shiro instead of Angra Mainyu.
Despite Fate/strange Fake having no actual reason to diverge, it just did. Part of it is because Zelretch specifically pins his hope on sending in a Spanner in the Works to avert a possible Bad Future.
Fate/Grand Order itself diverges from FSN because of currently unspecified reasons that have resulted in only one Holy Grail War being held in Fuyuki, the formation of the Chaldea Security Organization, and the Evils of Humanity being laser focused on specifically carrying out their plans in this timeline. Beyond the main story, there are also several Servants derived from diverging points in the timeline:
EMIYA Alter comes from the Fate/stay night Heaven's Feel Bad End "Superhero" (also known as "Mind of Steel").
Assassin EMIYA is a Kiritsugu that was never hired by the Einzberns, so he never met Irisviel, causing him to fall further into despair.
The Lion King/Lancer Altria variants are from timelines where Altria mainly used Rhongomyniad instead of Excalibur.
The game's second major plot arc, Cosmos in the Lostbelt, features seven alternate timelines, each with their own point of divergence. What sets these timelines apart is that they diverged so much that they would be pruned by the World, for they were seen as dead ends for humanity:
The first Lostbelt, set in Russia, diverged in AD 1570 when an asteroid struck Earth and plunged it into a new ice age. The Russian tsar of the time, Ivan the Terrible, ordered his court mages to fuse the few surviving humans with Demonic and Phantasmal Beasts, creating a race of Beast Men called the Yaga. However, the Yaga were forced to spend all of their ability on merely surviving in the Death World Earth had become, and were therefore incapable of advancement and thus pruned.
The second Lostbelt, set in Scandinavia, diverged in 1000 BC when Surtr chose to defy his prophesied role in Ragnarok and set the entire world, not just Scandinavia, aflame. It took all of the Norse gods except Skadi to seal him away in a Heroic Sacrifice — but Surtr's rampage scarred the world so badly that it was incapable of supporting more than ten thousand humans at any given time.
The third Lostbelt, set in China, diverged in 210 BC when Emperor Qin Shi Huang discovered the secret to immortality. With eternal life in his hands, he set about conquering foreign lands until he had control over the entire planet. However, he hoarded all technological advancement for himself, set about planning the defense of the world rather than expanding outward from it, and left humans in a state of blissful ignorance, lacking education and expected to till the land until they reached a certain age, when they would be euthanized before the troubles of old age could affect them.
The fourth Lostbelt, set in India, has no specific date of divergence (the calendar used in that Lostbelt counts the Maha-Yuga Cycle rather than the Gregorian calendar), but is stated to have diverged at the end of the Kurukshetra War (which would put it around 3000 BC), when Arjuna, rather than coming to terms with his inner darkness, hit the Despair Event Horizon upon seeing the carnage that the war brought and vowed to become a god so he could erase evil from existence. He would succeed, merging with nearly the entire Hindu pantheon to become the Lostbelt's sole god, and sped up the Yuga Cycle to weed out what he deemed "evil" and reach his perfect world sooner. However, he ended up accelerating it too much, and between that and his impossibly high standards, he was doomed to drive humanity to extinction.

Averted in the Wild Cards series - while it seems that the arrival of Dr. Tachyon and the virus are the point of divergence for this world, there are characters like Jubal / Jhubben, not a joker but an alien that contradict this. Also, Jetboy and Dr. Tod, two earthling characters in the origins story, already are divergences from our history. That doesn't stop people from claiming the appearance of Tach and the virus are the first changes...

Resistance: The PoD occurs when Spain decides to heed U.S. demands after the destruction of the U.S.S. Maine in Havana in 1898. They agreed to give Cuba independence, averting the Spanish-American War. Then the 1908 Tunguska Event brought with it in this world an alien menace, a virus that infects and turns humans into savage alien creatures. World War II as we know it is averted in this world, but the aliens then invade at the end of 1949 from Russia (which had been slowly overrun in the proceeding decades).

Rain Code: New Game Plus: The plot starts to diverge from the canon source material when Yuma passes out in front of the Master Detectives on-board the Amaterasu Express, which ends up saving everyone from the Fake Zilch's murder plot once Pucci realizes that Yuma has been drugged and that something is amiss on the train. Yuma's accidental intervention allows the Master Detectives to reach Kanai Ward and become major characters alongside the Master Detectives at the Nocturnal Detectivve Agency.

The backstory of Nier places its point of divergence at June 12, 2003, at approximately 3:00 PM JST, when a dragon and a monster appeared in the skies over Tokyo, fought, and subsequently died (the events of Ending E of Drakengard). After that, as a result of the monster crossing over from its home dimension into ours, a Mystical Plague started to take root among humanity that, over a thousand years later, leads to the extinction of the human race.

Ace Attorney: The point of divergence is World War II, and more specifically the United States not signing anti-Japanese laws that they did in the real world. Thus, Japanese culture is allowed to flourish... and Japanese migrants bring their "reach a verdict as quick as possible" legal system with them.

Worlds Apart (Buffy);
The Council decide to take possession of Alcathla at just the moment when Angel is returned to Earth; as a result, the Scooby Gang avoid some of their more relationship-damaging moments this season, as Giles is able to affirm his loyalty to Buffy over the Council and Buffy never actually hides Angel from the rest of the gang (she only delays telling them until the Council have gone).
In-narrative, Buffy finds herself assuring Willow that her restoring Angel's soul using the original curse is a big part of everything working out as it has, as without Willow's curse Buffy believes she would have ended up facing a different vampire in the Cruciamentum (she initially suggested that she would have been facing Angelus, but amends that to speculate that she would have been facing one of the vampires who were killed during the Council's tournament, as without the curse she would have just sent Angelus to Hell and Buffy doubts anything would let Angelus out even if Angel was released).

The Mountain and the Wolf: The divergence from Game of Thrones' plot doesn't happen until four chapters in, since the Wolf shows up to kill characters shortly before their canon deaths (the Mountain, Ramsay, Littlefinger, the Mountain again). And even once that starts happening, events continue to unfold close to the series' plot (Danaerys still torches King's Landing, but due to the Wolf ordering a visible magic attack originating from the Keep instead of a mental breakdown) and any characters spared are removed from the main plot or outright kidnapped for unknown purposes (Beric, Qyburn, Cersei and Jaime). Doesn't stop Tyrion declaring he'd have been much better off without the Wolf's interference.

World in Conflict. The game asks the question, what if the Soviet Union decided to go to war in 1989 rather than face collapse? The Berlin Wall still comes down in this world, but it comes down when the Soviets blow it down with demolition charges and flood West Berlin with their troops. They proceed to invade Western Europe, with varying degrees of success and failure. Then they decide to launch an invasion of the United States in the hopes of at least tricking the U.S. into pulling its forces from Europe to reinforce the home front.

In Prey (2017): The divergence is explained in-game with Talos 1's museum. United States President John F. Kennedy secretly forms a space alliance with the USSR, intending to fully broker peace, because they secretly discovered a hostile alien life form orbiting the Moon and both parties sought to research the aliens, and the potential for a singularity, with all of Earth's resources. The exact divergence is that when the USSR screws Kennedy over by attempting to assassinate him, he survives in this timeline, and retaliates with a hostile takeover of the project, which stays fully in American hands and is eventually sold to a megacorporation, who manage to reverse-engineer genetic / neurological mutagens, or Neuromods. Kennedy wound up living over a century as well, thanks to Neuromod development.

In Tamar Anolic's Triumph of a Tsar, history diverges from "our" timeline when Tsar Alexander II just barely escapes the bomb attack that killed him in real life and lives long enough to follow through on his plans to make Russia a constitutional monarchy.

In Full Metal Panic!, the point of divergence is New Year's Eve of 1981, with everyone born on that day possessing low-level Psychic Powers and knowledge of science and technology far beyond than the current level of human progress; these people have been dubbed "Whispered". The actual cause was the "Yamsk 11 Incident", wherein Russian experiments on a psychic girl named Sofia somehow gave her that advanced knowledge and mind-linked her to everyone born at that moment, making her the "Whisperer" who grants them that knowledge. This in turn spurred more changes: Mikhail Gorbachev was assassinated, halting his Glasnost policy and prolonging the Soviet-Afghan war, meaning the Soviet Union still exists in the early 21st century; meanwhile, Whispereds working on Ronald Reagan's "Star Wars" defense initiative produced Humongous Mecha, among other things.

Masako X's Dragon Ball What If? series shows various alternate timelines to the Dragon Ball series, many being derailed from canon by a single point of divergence, such as Goku landing somewhere else as a child, like at Capsule Corp or the Red Ribbon Army, a villain makes a Heel–Face Turn, Future Trunks travels to the wrong time or gets stuck in the past, and many more, too many to list here, really.
