Uchronia
The term ''uchronia'' refers to a hypothetical or fictional time period of our world, in contrast to altogether-fictional lands or worlds. The concept is similar to alternate history, but uchronic times are not easily defined but are placed mainly in some distant or unspecified point before current times, and they are sometimes reminiscent of a constructed world. Some, however, use ''uchronia'' to refer to an alternate history. The word is a neologism from the word utopia (Greek ''u-topos'', meaning "no-place"), replacing ''topos'' with ''chronos'' (time). It was coined by Charles Renouvier as the title of his 1876 novel ''Uchronie (L'Utopie dans l'histoire), esquisse historique apocryphe du développement de la civilisation européenne tel qu'il n'a pas été, tel qu'il aurait pu être'' (''Uchronia (Utopia in History), an Apocryphal Sketch of the Development of European Civilization Not as It Was But as It Might Have Been'').
