Timeline (Superpowers)

This is the abridged timeline of the Superpowers alternate history, stretching from its first Point of Divergence in 165 AD until the present day (2000 AD). The timeline spans three World Wars, the emergence of electrical, industrial and space age technologies as well as the foundation of colonies on both the Moon, Mars and several asteroids. To provide more specialized information, here are three timelines dedicated to distinct themes in human history :

Below is a detailed history of the Roman Empire from 180 to 1247 AD, and the Mayan Conglomerate from 395 to 1247 AD. This extended timeline explores the history of those two nations until just after the crucial year 1221 AD, when they encountered each other and became embroiled in a terribly long war. This detailed timeline is dated in both the Anno Domini and Ad Urbe Condita Calendars (AUC=AD+753 years), and is organized based on the reigns of the Roman Emperors from Sulla I to Magnus II. Over the course of those 1000 years or so, the Roman Empire goes from a mighty European country to the single most powerful entity in the Old World. Meanwhile, the Mayan nation goes from an assortment of unorganized City-states to an incredibly advanced kingdom covering the whole of Central Columbia as well as parts of North and South Columbia.

Muscovy logically, but incorrectly, assumed that they had formed an alliance against it and so acted preemptively by attacking the Ottoman Empire in full force. The Mongols immediately moved to defend its ally, whose military was only just able to slow the Muscovic advance
1862 - The Romans, worried about the Mongol border drawing steadily closer, enacted a plan they had been preparing for a decade now in case of just this situation. They began to conquer their own Muscovic territory whilst they used their new Deliquium single-wing aircraft to drop Mayan incendiary bombs on strategic Muscovic bases and cities ahead of the Mongol advance. Essentially they were "indirectly" weakening the Mongol's new territories, while at the same time slowing the hordes advance

This agreement, states, not only, that the Muslim and Christian worlds shall never be at war (permanently putting an end to the religious wars of the last millennium) and that the Roman and Ottoman Empires have an agreement of open-borders and to relations working to maintain peace. Alexander dies shortly after returning to Rome and is buried in his astounding personal Mausoleum in the northern part of the city. The Senate and Curia Episcopates meet to elect a new emperor. Pakus Martinex Rullianus Juvenis, Praetor of Thracia and General in the Muscovik conquest, is appropriately dubbed Emperor Pontifex

Emperor Sulla II states that he himself witnessed the Miraculum Solaris while walking in the Imperial Gardens. This event steps up the current cultural resurgence of religiosity among the Philosophers and the rich of the Empire, as is particularly evident in all the religious themed media of the time. Picturitati (movies) are especially affected

1929 - Treaty of Melita is signed by the Heads of State for the Roman, Mayan and Japanese Empires, thereby forming the Viris Mundi (Global Powers or Powers of the World). The Allied Coalition, obviously, takes this as an aggressive action towards its members and acts preemptively. The Golden Horde is quickly flung at Japan's Korean holdings and the Inca launch a full scale biological war in South Columbia and Sub-Saharan Africa, resulting in millions of civilian deaths in the first month of the war, the Global War

See Bellum Mundum for EventsEdit

1932 - Signing of the Treaty of the Kor'na Yasse, formally ending the Global War
1933 - Members of the Global Powers meet together in the Kor'na Yasse, now known as the Praetorium Mundum. Although it is still being upgraded to their standards, it is agreed that the newly christened Praetorium Mundum, is to be the headquarters for the Foedus Terrae, an international organization with the purpose of maintaining order on Earth
1933 - First mammal is cloned. Inca scientists successfully create a living clone of the llama, the nations primary domestic animal. Though it comes to much acclaim at first, by the next year the creature has already expired, doing nothing to dissuade further attempts at the process
1934 - "Mind of God" computer is upgraded and expanded using modern technology. It now has a storage capacity of 3000 PenteQuadis (OTL 1500 terabytes) and a processing speed of 3.6 TetrAmbs (OTL 3.6 GHz). Roman computers utilize solid state drive and photonic integrated circuit technology
1935 - Tepeu I is the first man-made satellite to enter Earth orbit. It takes a photo of Europe and relays atmospheric data back to the ground. Though the rocket technology was Mayan, the computer equipment all had to be bought off of the Romans, and so it was nowhere near on par with the Roman's latest technology
1936 - Beginning of the African Plague. A strain of influenza mutated somewhere in the Roman province of Swahilium begins to spread throughout Africa. Two months after the first outbreak, the Inca have a vaccine, but neglect to make this news international

1938 - Romans launch their own satellite C-1. It is placed in geostationary orbit above Carthage, showing off the superior automated technology of the Romans. Powered by the sun, it is to remain in place to act as a relay station for communications between Melita and Carthage
1939 - Detonation of Aztlan, the first liquid-based particle bomb (H-bomb). From this point onwards a sort of cultural rivalry begins between the Mayans and the Romans. Although it is a simultaneous arms race, and space race, there is little to no animosity or real danger in their competition. The driving forces behind it are the egotistical nature of both nations, with each trying to prove themselves Earth's greatest power

December - Launching of the first Japanese satellite. This one however resembles Tepeu I more in scope than the Roman communication satellites

1942

February - Japanese scientists propose a method for creating a pure-fusion nuclear bomb through Induced Gamma Emission. They sell the technique to the Mayans in exchange for a huge quantity of lethal metals (in this case uranium)
July - Project Helios is begun. It has the stated aim of setting up satellites to harvest solar energy and "beam" it back to the ground
November - Detonation of Votan, the first pure-fusion particle bomb. This Mayan nuclear device exploded with an approximate yield of 66 megatons, the largest man-made explosion on Earth, so far

October - The Osiris satellite is sent into high-Earth orbit. It is the first space based telescope ever launched

1944

January - An unmanned Roman probe, Luna , safely lands on the surface of the Moon. The entry was designed to mimic the one planned for the Artemis Program, as well as to take large quantities of scientific date of the Lunar surface
April - Birth of an artificially created Cama (Camel-Llama). This is just another addition to the string of successes the Inca have been having with genetic technology. This includes a cloned llama from 1939 that is still living in perfect health at this time
October - Roman Slave Market is at an all time low. All businesses that used slaves have largely replaced them with automatons and many functions of a house slave are being replaced by computers or automatons as well
November - First Mayan communication satellite is launched

1945

March - Stem cell applicator goes into circulation in the Inca Empire. It uses a similar mechanism to a paint roller to apply a layer of undifferentiated cells over any surface after each application

1948

January - Mayan scientists discover a new allotrope of carbon that has approximately 100 times the strength of noricum, and one sixth its weight. Funding is immediately put into discovering a method of mass production
March - First line of Mongolian single-wing bombers go into production
May - Plans for the A-4 Heavy-Vulcan missiles and A-5 Phoínix rockets are completed. A-4 contain a single 53 megaton pure-fusion warheard, whilst the A-5 launches 20 individual 121 kiloton pure-fusion warheads over a wide area
September - Nationwide celebrations following the 7th successful Moon Landing by Roman cosmonauts (7 is an important number in the modern Roman culture). The day before most of the landing team returned, the 21st, is generally considered the founding date of the city of Heliopolis on the Moon's surface, with the original Heliopolis having ironically been burned to the ground nearly a millenia ago.
October - Beginning of the Swahilium Civil War. Always having been the most downtrodden of the Roman Provinces, Swahilium has recently been seeing even harder times than usual, particularly after 29% of the population was wiped out in the pandemic over a decade ago
December - Swahilium's capital of Australafrica is captured by the revolutionaries. Sifocaeli of the CEL wipe out one of the rebel's convoys, killing their second-in-command

1949

February - The First Cherubim Missile-Attack satellite is launched. This is a massive Roman satellite equipped with a large complement of Space-to-Surface Missiles capable of easily hitting even a small moving vehicle. Each missile is launched on a direct path from the satellite to their target and so, very little fuel is required for them as gravity does most of the acceleration
April - Following a minor border skirmish between the Ottomans and the Mongolians, Dalai Khan pays a visit to the Ottoman Sultan to ensure that peace is maintained
July - Swahilium Civil War ends a month after the recapture of Australafrica. Due to the fact that virtually anything being used by the rebels that is visible from space is quickly destroyed by rockets, their ability to fight against the Legion was reduced to almost zero. Once the Legion moved in to surround the city there was 5 hour standoff between both forces, at which time the rebels were obliterated by rocket fire upon coming out of hiding to combat the legionaries. Although less than 100 legionaries were lost during the war, the cost of weaponry put into combat was enormous, by most national standards anyway
August - Mayans create the first domestic Fission Power Plant. Built along the coast, East of Chichen Itza, the plant operates at approximately 2100 MW of electrical output
November - Designs for particle bombs are given to the Mongols by the Foedus Terrae in exchange for their continued secrecy over these weapon's existence

In essence it uses a process similar to that of the nuclear battery to power each of its ramjet engines, this design allows for the jet to be suddenly boosted for take-off, even before air-intake reaches useable levels. With a maximum speed of 6720 km/h and a max range of 40,000 km, it is the sifocaelus with the highest speed and greatest combat distance in the world

1953

February - One of Chiron's booster rockets malfunctions and output drops to 41% just at take-off. Though the thrust his cut as soon as the problem is detected, the craft loses its balance on the launch pad and falls over, irreparably damaging the rockets, and causing extensive damage to Chiron itself. Following this event, the Emperor authorizes Project Prometheus, an attempt to produce an entirely self-dependent spacecraft
April - Creation of the Zulu Imperial Airforce. As a gift, the Romans give them four C-89 sifocaeli with complementary flight lessons
July - Romans develop their own cure for cancer, 10 years after the Inca and 2 years after the Mayans developed theirs. Unlike the Inca vaccine, and the Mayan photodynamic therapy, the Roman method involves releasing microscopic machines into the body designed to attach themselves to the body in the presence of cancer cells. They then begin to release heat into the tumor causing cell death after sevelar hours exposure. This is the first medical usage of nano-automatons
November - Following the completion of the 9,300 MW Tik'al Particle Reactor, over 40% of the Mayans electricity production is handled by nuclear power. This puts them at two-thirds of the way to their final goal of 60% of total power generated

1954

January - Another minor skirmish at the Ottoman-Mongol border. Tensions have been steadily increasing over the past three decades and full-scale war has been only just held off by the Foedus Terrae.

Realizing the Mongols have some kind of massively destructive weapon, the Ottoman Caliph goes to meet the Alliance of Earth and warn them of this threat
May - Following weeks of discussion, the Alliance finally decides to come clean to the world about the existence of particle weaponry. The Inca, Ottoman and Khmer Empires are furious about this revelation and demand the termination of all nuclear weapon programs. Wanting to prevent the expected nuclear devastation of the world by the Mongols, the Japanese launch a blank ICBM across the Mongol Empire and then have it return the same way to come and crash into the Maria Nippona. Worried by this display of power, the Mongols sign a treaty with the Japanese wherein either side agrees to only use particle bombs in the event of such an attack on their own soil
July - Following the news of the treaty, the Khmerians and Ottomans jointly decide to further attack the Mongol Empire. Beginning the Great Asiatic War

The 80's Edit

1980

January - First asteroid mining site established on a M-type asteroid (OTL 16 Psyche). Once the site is finished, it is estimated that it could literally double Rome's global Iron production
March - Start of the Midas Program by the Romans. With current models proclaiming the economic viability of increased asteroid mining, the Emperor has proposed a project to, not only exploit an additional 20 asteroids by the end of the decade (1987), but to set-up a wholly unthought of before network to transport the materials to Earth
June - Mayans finish construction on their own electromagnetic mass driver on the Moon. This more than cuts the cost of their lunar missions to less than a fourth

1981

February - All members of the Platonist Confederacy have finally passed a referendum that will promote further political unity within the organization
May - Completion of the 16 Psyche mining base. Annual production of the facility is estimated to be 10,000,000 tons, though this is well below the projected quantity, expansions to the facility are expected to be undergone as a part of the Midas Program
June - Creation of the SC-34 Gunship by the Romans. Having approximately the weight of a Vastator boat, the SC-34 is the first example of a military spaceship
September - First asteroid mining site established on a Near-Earth Object (433 Eros). Though it is currently only meant to mine Gold, Silver and Aluminium, plans are made to expand the facility to process even more amounts of materials

1982

March - Romans complete their fourth interplanetary starship, the Ozymandias. The others in the Roman spacefleet are the Aeneas, the Imhotep and the Hesperia interplanetary starships, plus the Daedalus and Prometheus space shuttles. As well, two others are still in construction and are yet to be christened by the Emperor
April - Rebels on the southern coast of the Arabian Peninsula start a revolt in the name of Platonism, at first it seems as if they're only a minor threat and the local government sends in their own troops to deal with the problem
June - It has become apparent that the Platonist Rebels have had some outside assistance as they use far better weapons than was expected
July - New particle reactors are finished in the Roman Lunar colonies to sustain the current population of 580,000 people, more than three-quarters of which live in the capital of Heliopolis

November - Death toll for the Ottoman rebellion exceeds 10,000 people, and the international media has started to call it a civil war. Still, the Ottomans refuse outside influence for fear of being taken advantage of

1983

January - The third asteroid mining site is established, this time on LII Gordias (Ceres)
April - Alliance of Earth overrules the Ottoman request of non-interference and send 1 Roman Legion and two Alliance Legions to help
May - Confederacy increases its illicit supplies to the rebels by several times, but is unwilling to risk a serious international incident by sending its own troops. All Alliance members are still unaware of their influence there
October - Roman Intelligence Service discovers what the Confederacy has been doing and convinces the government to focus efforts instead on cutting off their supply lines
December - Interplanetary Romulus vessel is completed. Its design far supersedes its predecessors and its size is also much greater

1984

February - The first section of the Portantia Network is completed. This part consists of four stations in fixed positions along Earth's orbit that can transport any ship at high-interplanetary speeds between each other
March - Ottoman Civil War gains momentum as insurgents pop up all across the nation
April - Fission plant several hundred kilometers from Tikal experiences a meltdown as the worst nuclear accident in human history, with 90 immediate deaths, 22,000 attributable deaths within the next twenty years and an estimated 290,000 people exposed to dangerous levels of radiation
May - Newly released fission-powered private automobiles experience painfully low sales due to public outcry following the recent disaster. Their high-price though and the high number of rich supporters of the product in the government ensure that it is not a complete failure
July - Two more Alliance Legions arrive in Arabia to help deal with the Rebels, relations between the Confederacy and the Alliance are at their worst yet
August - The sixth interplanetary vessel, dubbed the Africanus is completed and given the role of a surveillance vessel for both Earth and foreign space colonies. Unlike its predecessors the Africanus focuses most on orbital maneuverability and sensor systems rather than speed or duration of journeys

1985

January - Per the agreements of the 1981 Treaty of Chumash, a joint Inca-Maya space elevator is completed near the city of Qusqu, the Inca capital. Both nations now rely on this method alone to launch their own satellites
February - Planet is on the brink of war when the Danes undergo a "blank firing drill" of the Mjöllnir Nuclear Artillery Station in Greenland, the first test fire in more than a decade. The demonstration that it can reach across the Atlantic nearly to the Equator fails to intimidate the Roman government which responds by sending a second Legion of their own to the Ottomans
June - Emperor Raphael of Rome dies after an hour or so of surgery following an ambush by African rebels on a military convoy he was accompanying in the province of Bantua. He is succeeded by his adopted son Vibius Aemillius Optatus, who is crowned Emperor Cicero
September - Japan, eager to stay ahead of the Conglomerate, finishes its own space elevator, the first to extend from a station in the middle of the ocean, more specifically the Pacific Ocean
November - The completion of the seventh interplanetary Roman starship is met with great celebration across the Empire as an important milestone in the history of space travel. The craft is dubbed the Cicero and this ship as well is a huge step forward in the technology of interplanetary ships

1986

January - Construction is started on the grandest engineering project in human history. Emperor Cicero plans to build advanced damming stations at the three entrance points to the Mare Nostrum (Mediterranean), so at OTL Gibraltar, Suez and Dardanelles. Once completed the stations will regulate the water level of the Mediterranean as well as completely control the flow of war into and out of it. With construction occurring concurrently in all places at once, the project is intended to be completed by 1990
February - Rest of the Portantia Network is completed and now non-interplanetary ships are capable of travelling anywhere within the asteroid belt in journeys measured in weeks rather than months
April - Ottoman Rebels are reduced to only a minor threat after the last mission in a series of strikes against their forces. Though the Ottomans are effectively at peace, and can handle matters on their own now, they are extremely resentful for years of war on their own territory and what they see as occupation by the foreign Alliance. All military ties are severed and the Ottoman Caliphate reverts to a nearly isolationist state
July - The latest interplanetary starship of the Romans, the Alexander, is unlike any other craft ever built in space before it and it has earned the distinction as the first Interplanetary Warship. Its intention is to be the personal spacecraft of the central government and the Caesar

1987

January - By this year resources from Roman asteroid mining are already providing an enormous boost to Rome's industrial capacity, sparking what many call an Industrial Revolution
February - Upgrades to the Suez Canal region are completed in line with the Magneuropa Program
March - Japanese astronauts at last reach Mars and establish their first colony there, this success over the Mayan Conglomerate cements the Japanese position as Rome's most powerful ally
June - Alongside the Magneuropa Program a plan to build huge artificial lakes and rivers in the Sahara Desert start to be put into action, it is expected that once the project is complete (scheduled for 1992) most of the Sahara will rather quickly become arable land. One of the greatest hurdles of the project is the 2 TW of continuous power that will need to be generated to sustain these artificial rivers
August - The Confederacy completes their first ten point-defense laser arrays at their most important military bases. These are intended to counter Roman space artillery in the event of a war
November - Construction is completed on the initial Underground Section of the city of Troy on Mars. This section consists of a massive roughly rectangular facility built completely underground that houses 100,000 people and has major shopping and relaxation districts for the inhabitants wishing to get out of the Martian sun that shines through the windows on the surface

1988

January - Hydroelectric Dam blocking off the Dardanelles Straights is completed in line with the Magneuropa Program, this now provides most of the power for the city of Constantinopolis
March - Via Martia is completed, connecting the two major Roman settlements on Mars and the growing Japanese base, this was a joint project between the two nations
April - There is a sudden uprising of over 2 million Platonist rebels in the Inca nation, the Alliance for its part is absolutely shocked by this and they immediately move several Mayan battalions, 3 Roman Legions and half of all Alliance forces to help protect the major Inca cities, the engagement is known as the Inca Revolution, but this is only the beginning
May - Only a week after the start of the Inca Revolution, Roman satellites detect a rapidly moving object originating from the Mjöllnir Nuclear Artillery Station that is headed for Europe. Protocols for this moment that have been in place for decades activate and the projectile, which is determined to have been nuclear, is prematurely detonated before even passing over Ireland. To the horror of the entire Roman people, the trajectory is calculated to have set it on a course for the city of Rome itself, and the detonation would most likely have killed over 10 million people, including the entire Roman government and the Emperor. The Empire immediately goes to war against the Confederacy and within a day so do the other members of the Alliance. The Bellum Aegidis has begun
August - First Battle of Durorium is the first major battle of war, with nearly the entire Danish fleet in action at once. The Roman city was torn apart by artillery fire and all of the defending ships, making up most of the Baltic Fleet, were destroyed
December - Cambrian provincial capital of Wentria is destroyed when the Danes make a bombing run against it with a hypersonic, nuclear missile, the Romans now fully intend to repeal the former treaty promising not to use nuclear weapons against the Confederacy

December - Congress of Tyre is held to reorganize the defeated nations. Rome is given custodianship of the Danish and Khmer states, whilst the Mayans must take care of all former Confederate states in North Columbia. The Republic of Vinland is also integrated into the United Chiefdoms of Columbia, causing a great deal of unrest in the region. Finally, all former Confederate nations are forced to adopt a less socialist form of government, though many are permitted to remain republican

1992

February - Civil War breaks out in the Chiefdoms as Vinlanders refuse to join the Union. Since the Chiefdoms are not permitted to field an army, the Alliance must come in to quell the discontent
March - Several Roman convoys in Djayakarta are attacked by guerrilla soldiers
