  • Aztec/Incan/Mayan culture took over the western world and Europeans could not ever get a foothold
  • Germany and Japan won WW II and then turned on each other.
  • The confederates won the civil war
  • Spain was the dominate military power during the 1700-1900's
  • etc..


The availability of supers could drastically change the course of history, including the founding or not of towns, cities, and even nations.

I too like this concept, use changes as small or large as you want for your world, make things interesting.

Oh, and it has been awhile since I read about the Battle of Waterloo,... But I'm fairly sure Russia didn't beat Napoleon at that battle. the Prussians did, with the help of several other armies.
