In 1863 confederate president Jeff Davis outlaws slavery in the confederacy. Despite talking about doing the same, Abraham Lincoln does no such thing in the Union and three months later the British Empire declares war on the Union on the grounds of stopping the save trade.
In 1865 the American civil war draws to a close with much of East America once again under British rule.
By 1960 the world is split between the British and German empires. Global tensions are at breaking point and it seems nothing can prevent the world's first truly "world war".

The Anthology of Heroes
This anthology features various stories set in the fandom universe of the original manga series, Fairy Tail. If inspiration for new stories in this fandom runs dry, other fandoms will be incorporated. A personal favourite that seems to receive little recognition is the fandom of the original movie, How To Train Your Dragon, specifically the version released earlier this year featuring real-life characters. This fandom captivates with its rich world-building and engaging character development, exploring themes of friendship, courage, and the profound bond between humans and creatures. The real-life adaptation offers a fresh perspective and greater depth to the beloved tale, making it even more captivating. It portrays the story of a boy once ridiculed by his peers who ultimately earns their respect and admiration. Hiccup, the protagonist, transforms from an awkward, underestimated youth into a courageous and respected leader. Along his journey, he embraces his unique perspective and strengths, demonstrating that empathy and understanding can bridge the divide between humans and dragons. His growth is reflected in his ability to inspire others and foster harmony between the two worlds. Readers are encouraged to share their thoughts in the comments section of each chapter, as constructive feedback provides valuable insight into what resonates and what may need improvement. Such engagement helps refine storytelling techniques and deepen character development, enhancing the narrative's overall quality. In addition, interaction with readers fosters a sense of community and connection, encouraging more dynamic, participatory storytelling. Ultimately, Hiccup's journey underscores the transformative power of empathy, courage, and self-discovery, inspiring both personal growth and communal harmony.
When the Blue Meets the Gray
America's greatest conflict. The Civil War. 1861-1865. Brother against brother, father against son. Elizabeth Hawkins is only 19 when war breaks out. She must make the biggest decision in her short life: Does she join her brother and nurse those in need, or does she live comfortably in the peace of her own home? Note: The battles and commanders are real events and people. I tried to be as accurate as possible with events of battles. Other than those, this is a completely original story. Also, the picture above is an illustration of the attack on Fort Sumter April 12, 1861; beginning of one of the bloodiest wars in American history, if not the bloodiest.

The World Of Steam
London, 2068. This is my personal account of the events that had happened. A crisis had taken over the entire world. Gas. Steam. It was the industrial revolution all over again. War machines were powered by gas furnaces. Cars ran on coal. It was choking us. Slowly killing us. I could not breathe, the only thing that my tongue could taste was charcoal and ammonia. I realised that I had to do something about the situation that I was in, lest I die a slow and horrible death. No. It wasn't just me. 18 million lives were at stake. Time was against me. But then again...when was time ever my friend?Complete
