Introduction
In the beginning, there was a virgin Earth, an alternate universe where mankind never existed. Prehistoric mammals of all shapes and sizes inhabit this world; the absence of humanity has given them the freedom to roam about unmolested, never having to worry about extinction...except when there are tar pits around. The rivers of the world are teeming with fish, the earth filled with minerals, and plants bearing the fruits of Mother Nature--all waiting to be discovered by newcomers to this empty planet.
These newcomers aren't just humans, but rather people, locations, objects, and territories brought from different points in OTL history and the multiverse. It is not known who or what sent them here, but what we do know is that their purpose is to create a new kind of civilization from scratch. However, with said civilization being a hodgepodge of people/places from both real life and fiction, expect all kinds of shenanigans to follow.
Welcome...to Terra Nova.
As the description says, this is a remake of an ISOT TL I've been working on before Alternatehistory.com crashed. This is to keep me busy until the site comes back on and everything returns to normal.
The rules are the same as in the original: there will be six ISOTs per chapter, which can be from either OTL or works of fiction. The first group of ISOTs will be handpicked by me, but for the rest of the future chapters you may suggest what I should ISOT and where.
Please keep in mind that I will not allow destructive or controversial ISOTs. Villains are okay as long as they aren't too powerful, and bad guys with genocidal tendencies like Adolf Hitler will be rejected.
Now that the rules are out of the way, let the fun begin!
