Salidan Altiverse
The Salidan Altiverse, commonly referred to as the 'SAverse', consists of all territories, companies, people, and events that were created by and for the Salidan Altiverse that take place in a slightly altered world. It does not include territories, companies, people, or events that were created by other colleagues, ie those of Austellus Hemisphaeria.
The SAverse was created by Ethan Goin.

Differences in SAverse vs IRL
Most everything is same as in the real world, but there are small differences that are present in the Salidan Altiverse. Some are a result of Salide itself, while others constitute minor changes in history.
Americas
Texas (SA) has been independent since its independence in 1836 and did not join the United States. It is in a close alliance and partnership with the Rio Grande (SA) Republic, which gained its independence in the 1840s.
Pan-American Highway is completed, including that at the Darien Gap. The Highway in Texas goes from Laredo, San Antonio, Austin, DFW, along 287 to Amarillo, up 87 to Dalhart and across the border to Trinidad.
United States
Since Texas is not a part of the Union, Puerto Rico is the 50th state.
Nicaragua
Nicaragua has a canal and railway, which was built by Salidans in 1900 (canal completed in 1911), preceding the Panama Canal by several years.
Europe
The European Union is a bit different than its IRL counterpart. The highest powers of the EU are not appointed, but elected. Rather than being elected by the people, they are instead elected by the members of Parliment of all member states. As well, the European Union is not as restrictive as IRL and not every nation is forced to follow the rules of the Union.
United Kingdom
The British Confederation (SA) is an alternate to the UK, consisting of a united and independent Ireland, an independent Scotland, an independent Wales, and an independent England.
