Glory to the Carthaginian Empire! Glory to Phoenicia! Just hope that they don't get swallowed instantly by the other American empires.

B, because I want a B-C tie. Kongo and Mali as colonisers, Carthago Nova Nova already there. (Bonus points if they reclaim Cartagena and Tunis!)

At the risk of being unpopular, A as I have the same reaction to Prester John as other people seem to have for Carthage.

I also vote for Black Power, because an alt-hist timeline with Africa not sucking would be pretty awesome. Oh, but keep some of the Prester John stuff from A if possible because it sounds fun.

Meh, we got Greyhunter and the Ghanan Empire. If we keep making everyone advanced there will be nowhere to expand our colonies.

Okay!

So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

WUB!
C sounds like good fun, plus a way to add some more competition for the Tawantinsuyu in the New World.

Although elements of A would be nice. Pagan resurgence in Africa thanks to strange, universe-displaced writings telling of the Snake in the Well and the Ogoonu who are its favored servants.

Just remember, in the likely event that C wins, that the ancient Phoenicians would have hybridized with the Mapuche by this point. In other words, they should be tough customers on land as well as at sea.

B, though if we go the Carthage route we might as well go whole hog and add a Jewish culture bloc in Darkest Africa around the abandoned mines of Solomon for maximum eurocentrism

Why do you make me choose between C and B. I want them both.

Guess I'll vote C.

Then vote B to create a tie, which would lead to a compromise.

Going to dodge the bandwagon and go A, just for the literary references.

There already is/was one. we're onto the sixth Carthage at least. (Three of which were in the Americas in the original timeline.)
