: Where we developed technology, that world develops

Or an alternate Marathon universe. Sleeping god crashes at the Great Devoid site instead of the Yucatan (as in Forrest's theory); this sends evolution onto somewhat different tracks and so assorted species like Dwarves and Myrkridia arose which were never seen in the Maraverse.
And the Trow? Maybe they existed in the Maraverse too--but had the bad luck to live in the Yucatan. :-)
