Introduction
Howdy, everyone, and welcome to the home of my newest allohistorical endeavor: Final Frontiers.
FF is a few different things all wrapped up into one suspiciously Australia-shaped package.
Firstly, it's a redux of an older timeline: Earth98, by u/DeFlame. I'll openly admit that I am not DeFlame, nor did I seek any permission from him to create this. Because of this, that's why I don't use the Earth98 name or claim to be some kind of "rightful successor" to the original project. However, I was a developer for parts of the original project during its collaborative phase in 2020, which is why I feel confident in my ability to redux it without either blatantly plagiarizing DeFlame or straying too far from the spirit of the original Earth98.
Secondly, it's what I like to call a "revisionist Americawank." Yes, it's le funny wacky silly goofy Big USA (wholesome poggies 100), etc. 15 stripes, 150 stars, the whole nine yards, and so on. However, unlike many Americawanks, I don't aim to use FF as a vehicle for my own vision of an ideal America, and I don't aim to portray anyone's vision of an ideal America here - neither the world nor the United States are magically made perfect on merit of America being big. Some places are better off, some places are worse off, as makes sense considering this is an alternate world.
Lastly, this is a sort of playground for my various wacky ideas - it's not going to be fully cohesive, and I guarantee you there's going to be butterfly nets and handwavium stashed all over the place, but my main goal is to make something that I (and hopefully y'all!) can find interesting to both develop and view.
With that said, let's get this party started!
