Wish I had seen yours though, cause I would have had fun with that as the Visigoth's became the ruling class there (early Spain). Ignoring things that happen within ruling classes (usurpers, other court intrigue, etc.), prehaps it could be claimed that the Visgoths ended up with world wide conquests including Central and South America. Friend of mine sent a copy of someone's paper on that a zillion years ago. Footnoted nicely. A variation on things that cause history. Battle of Covadonga (that name I did have to look up).

But back to the thread:
