MFAH
MFAH, short for Maps, Flags, and Alternate History, is an independent Discord server for exploring various aspects of worldbuilding and real-life history. Before a name change on October 9th, 2018, it was known as MFLAH, with "Linguistics" fitting into the middle of the acronym, though this was removed following the creation of the Conlangs and Linguistics server.
MFAH is currently owned and operated by XO, with the help of 7 other mods.

Main article: History of MFAH
MFAH was opened to the public on May 3, 2017, under the leadership of Bro. Prior to this, it had been a relatively inactive private discord server. Its userbase at the time quickly became comprised of users of alternatehistory.com, in which a link had been posted.
Current Administration[edit | edit source]
Main article: List of admins
MFAH currently has 7 administrators, with XO as the lead admin / owner. Other mods include Bain, Henry, May, Leah, Ridley, and Sapaa.
Unique amongst many other servers, MFAH's server organization is led almost entirely by democratically-elected officials. Its structure is bicameral, with power shared between the admin team and the Council, the server's legislative body.
Every solstice month, a vote of confidence for the admins is held, as well as elections for seats on the council.
