Lõis (from the Tyrith name for 'Earth') is an alternate-history timeline for Earth.

History

Some points of divergence:

  • Hellenistic Greece spread to Central Asia and East India, giving us Kwenya and Heleasic.
  • The Roman Empire expanded to Greece, Eastern Europe and Caucasus, hence influencing Azalic and Celtic languages, but lost territory in Italy and Western Europe to the Corded Ware peoples, and in Eastern Europe they lost out to Celts.
  • The Siészal sacked China at the end of the Tang Dynasty, ending Dynastic China.
