An
Alternate Universe work on
Alternate History Dot Com by Doragon, whcih can be found
here
if you happen to be a member. It starts when the real-life Earth of 2011 switched place with the post
World War Three Star Trek Earth of 2063 at the end of the events of
Star Trek: First Contact. And it takes off from there.
Tropes in this story:
- Alternate History: Seeing as our world was in fact not thrown forward in time this past April, by the very definition.
- Expanded Universe: This project has already spawned a very extensive EU of its own, with followers submitting everything from ship designs, the location of the Terran Confederation Capital and parliamentary legislation to entire colonies that have yet to be mentioned in the actual story.
- For Want of a Nail: Even only a few months into the new timeline, things have taken a very interesting turn. Within a year, Earth has gone to war with the Vulcans, and within two years, Earth has mostly united and created alliances with the Romulans and the Andorians.
- Half-Human Hybrid: Retired Marine General Malcolm O'Dowd, whose mother was Vulcan. There are implied to be many more in the offworld colonies, but he is the first and oldest.
- Legacy Character: Several, including Major Vos, Captain Monroe, Navigation Officer Mr Knight and the aforementioned General O'Dowd all had ancestors mentioned in the first book.
