For Want of A Sandwich - A Franz Ferdinand Lives Wikibox TL

The World in 2020
  • Hello all,

    The endeavour for this TL started back in 2013, when after the abandonment of my Ross Perot TL, I searched for the ideas of my fellow members of Alternatehistory.com in redacting a new timeline - Having Archduke Franz Ferdinand survive his fateful trip to Sarajevo on June, 28 1914 seemed perfect, as this event had numerous consequences for the whole century. The TL had a few missteps, yet I pursued the redaction of a complete timeline, country by country, year by year, from 1914 to 2020 : in the end, it seemed that it would be impossible to make a linear TL as I had first imagined, and the great TL Our Fair Country and the success of the edited Wikibox persuaded me to launch a new format, as a history atlas illustrated by Wikibox, showing the whole perspective of the world from 1914 to 2020 and leaving the reader to find the marks of the world. Without further ado, let's begin for once this completed TL, in collaboration with you !

    I must acknowledge the many readers of A Giant Sucking Sound ; one could find a few similitaries with the Kaiserreich TL, on which I once participated in my younger years for Mexico and France.

    World Democracy Index
  • DemocracyIndex.png

    Classification definition :

    Full democracy (level 9, darker green) -
    Political debates and citizens' representations are guaranteed by the insitutitions, as well as the separation of powers, freedom of speech, information. Gender and race equalities are enforced. For example, United States.
    Full democracy (level 8, dark green) - Same as above, but limited issues arise, such as bureaucracy, reunion limited corruption and some restrictions on equality and media representation. For example, China.
    Flawed democracy (level 7, green) - Overall good democracies but corruption is more stressed, as well as some media freedom infringement and minor suppression of political critics. Underdeveloped political culture, low levels of participation in politics, civic representation and other issues can be issues. For example, Germany.
    Flawed democracy (level 6, light green) - Same as above, but more widespread : corruption is endemic, electoral fraud is widespread, political violence and suppression of the media and some political parties are suppressed. For example, United Kingdom.
    Hybrid regime (level 5, yellow) - Electoral fraud, political violence, corruption are widespread ; even if the institutions guarantee check and balances, they also tend to discriminate and limit freedom of speech, media or enforce discrimination against certain populations. For example, Italy.
    Hybrid regime (level 4, orange) - Democracy is nothing but in name. The institutions are officially democracies and guarantee some political debate, but rule of law and pressure against the opposition avoid any true democratic spirit. For example, Mexico.
    Authoritarian regime (level 3, dark orange) - "Light" dictatorship, the basic rule of law and prior institutions are maintained, but political repression, suppression of opposition and media are enforced. For example, France.
    Authoritarian regime (level 2, crimson red) - Dictatorship. All individual freedoms are repressed, as well as all opposition, but return to democracy is an option. For example, Angola.
    Authoritarian regime (level 1, red) - Regime that tend to be considered "totalitarian". For example, Bharatavarsha.

    PS : of course, the Canadian Arctic Islands aren't a dictatorship, it's a bug when converting the file :)
