Alternate history (also called "alternative history", "allohistory", "uchronie" (French)) is a subgenre of SF that takes Earth history and changes some aspect of it.

Works of alternative history have been written almost as long as works of history and fantasy. Modern science fiction has added time travel and parallel universe stories to the panoply of "what-if" stories.
