Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'colonial history'

Colonial history examines the establishment, expansion, and administration of territories by foreign powers, particularly European empires from the 15th to 20th centuries. This period fundamentally reshaped global demographics, economics, and politics through conquest, settlement, resource extraction, and the imposition of foreign governance systems. Colonial relationships created enduring legacies in cultural identities, national boundaries, and power dynamics that continue to influence modern geopolitical realities and alternate history explorations.
