I am really curious how would the Americas turned out.
The USA might not existed today if Arabs and North Africans discovered the Americas before Europeans and then convert the Injuns to Islam. Would Islamized Injuns ally with Arabs to defeat and kill British, German settlers in what is now the USA?
Latin America might also not existed today if the Muslims reach the New World. Would phenomena such as Islamized Amerindians ally with the Arabs and North Africans to fight the Spaniards happen? Would we also see massive settlements in the New World of various Muslim people from Arabs, Berbers, Persians, Turks, South Asians?
The Americas might still turned mixed race and multiracial though as a result of mixing between Muslims start to intermarry with the Amerindians in big amounts. Or if the Arabs brought Africans and then up creating Muslim version of triracials lol. I want to see how a Muslim Mestizo would look like- a mix between Arab/North African/Turk/Persian and Amerindian -would they look different from the usual Iberian and Amerindian mix?
Or the mixing might not happen as much and the it ends up similar to what happen in parts of Africa and South Asia ; the Natives were Islamized but not Arabized.

But I want to see opinions here.
