The Progressive Earth Wiki

Welcome to the The Progressive Earth Wiki
The Progressive Earth Wiki is a Constructed World Wiki which deals with the idea of rewriting human history from the very beginning.

In The Progressive Earth, you will find an Earth that is, initially at least, exactly the same as our own was at that date; geologically, technologically and biologically an exact duplicate. The point of it all is that from this point on, we build as we wish, writing history forwards. For more details see our Policy of History, which is essential reading for contributors. 'Imagination tempered with possibility' is a good way of describing what we will create here. You may create anything that is physically feasible given the current level of Progressive Earth's Development, so long as it does not directly contradict or preclude something in an article which already exists. For example, you could design your own civilisation from scratch, or add to an existing civilisation's history, even having them invent something new. Create new peoples from existing ones, design new ideologies, cultivate conflicts, tame animals, build cities. As long as you justify it, it can happen.

Now let us deal with what this world is NOT.

■This is NOT an alternate history - alternate history is a study of the 'what ifs' of the past, not the recreation of history from scratch. See the AltHistory Wiki if that is what you are looking for.

■This is NOT a science-fiction or fantasy world. Sci-fi plotlines (aliens, parallel universes etc.) will not be tolerated, and neither will Fantasy creatures or Magic outside a mythological sense.

For further guidance, see our Development Guides:

■Presentation Guide

■Collaboration & Continuity Guide

'''Note: Me the maker of this WIki Alexanders, did not create the idea. This project was made by a certain Beowulf on Con-World Wiki who abandoned the project two years ago.  I am reviving it.'''

The Base Register
Our Progressive Earth needs a clear starting-point from which users can begin to invent. This is a realistic world, to be set at a certain point in human development. The Base Register is going to be a collection of 'starting-point' articles for our users to base their work on. See the Introduction to the Base Register for more information on the register and a list of contained articles

The Second Base Register
This is a second list of nessecery technologies, towns and cites can begin with just some techs but large civilzations cannot form until ALL are done
