Scenarios about 'comedy'

Comedy refers to a genre of entertainment and literary works intended to amuse audiences and provoke laughter through humor, wit, and satire. Throughout history, comedy has evolved from ancient Greek theatrical traditions to modern stand-up, serving as both entertainment and a powerful medium for social commentary, political criticism, and cultural reflection. In alternate history scenarios, comedy often provides a lens to explore how humor might have developed differently under changed historical circumstances or to satirize familiar historical events through counterfactual perspectives.
