You have quite the talent Scrapknight for fleshing out the histories of insane alternate timelines, it seems. If not 100% plausible, then at least 100% entertaining. As a novice to the mod, one wonders what shape exactly this future war shall entail.
Thank you kindly! I think one of the most fun parts of Divergences is its preference for the Rule of Cool, as they can say. Anything can happen and often does, and it's a blast to play without throwing plausibility out the window in pursuit of it. I highly recommend giving it a shot; it's kept me interested in Vic 2 for the time being, that's for sure.
Here I am, looking forward to read more
. And with Tanzhang and you actually here, we could actually figure out what does the Qingqiu flag letters mean
.
Btw, seeing the interest in Qingqiu by the community, I dare to say it won't get removed
.
Glad to have you on board! Qingqiu stronk!
And it seems like Ragriz figured it out
Excellent update
Thanks a lot. It was a bit of a doozy to write, but I think it turned out well, even if I had to go back and take a few extra screenshots.
Glad you're enjoying it so far.
Interesting stuff. I've always loved the idea of a Chinese state on the West Coast, and after reading the Beornian/Britannian Divergences AAR I was wanting to see more. Could we see a map of North America/Arcadia after the last war?
Thanks and welcome aboard! All Hail Britannia was definitely a major inspiration for putting this together (and not just because I had an abortive Code Geass Mod AAR with the same name XD). You may not see daschund knights here, but I hope to match the quality of writing therein.
Looking forward to your future endeavors in this AAR. Still working on the flag to go with the Short Story for Qingqiu, but I'll have it ready before the AAR's end.
EDIT: Or even sooner:
Qingqiu's history is complete
Thanks a lot for all your work on it, and welcome aboard!
Attalus, Althacor: I had to look up who it was, but yeah, there is a slight resemblance. Lebeau is "played by," as it were, William Seward.

Anyway, on to administrative business. My plan right now is to get started on the next update this weekend, so I'd expect it sometime next week. It's going to take us through about 20 years, so expect either another long one or a narrative diversion covering the 1870s, in which *SPOILER ALERT* not that much happens. There's always room for election coverage, I suppose.
To tide you all over, especially if you're new to Divergences, you should read up on
Razgriz's history of Qingqiu pre-1836. It should hopefully provide a little more context into the Federation and where it came from.
