Uchrony(transbellum)

From Alternative History

Jump to: navigation, search

"Uchrony" is the name given in Transbellum to what is popularly known as an alternate or divergent Earth. First-hand geological and astronomical observations have proven that every one of them are at the exact same time period and that apart from changes due to historical divergence, they are the same world.

In the months following the event known as the Grand Unveiling, Scientists were hard at work trying to make some sense of what had happen. Lacking any other real sources, they truned to the uchronicaly displaced peoples that had been rounded up by the government.

While all seemed unable (or perhaps unwilling) to shed any light on the event itself, the nature of the other places (the uchronies) became clearer. Because of the small number of u-Transients for each given uchrony (8 each) as well as the apparent absence of academicians and in some cases, simple communication problems, the information is still pretty basic:

  • Based of the similarity of history between some, it is believed that all the uchronies are related to one another by a serie of events that can best be represented by the uchronic tree.
  • Their number appears to be limited to 8
  • Apart from those born before or around the time of any of the divergence, no doppleganger appears to have existed between worlds. Also, apart from some few events that are deemed as bound to have had happened, no real echos seem to exist.
  • The rough general technological level appears to be about equal although some specific areas could be decades or even centuries behind (or in advance) when compared to another uchrony.
