Pale Champion Atom596 is an Australian-American YouTuber who makes Alternate History and map videos.

History
Pale Champion Atom596, or just Atom596, is an Australian-American alternate history youtuber. He created his channel on February 6, 2020, but didn't upload his first video until May 23. His first videos were Minecraft playthroughs and building timelapses, but these have since been made private. The oldest public video on the channel was posted on August 14, 2020, and it was his first alternate history video. It has since gained over 10,000 views.

Alternate History
This is Atom596's most prominent series, with 3 videos total. These videos cover alternate history scenarios, where he changes an event in history and then tries to follow history from there. These videos tend to focus on storytelling, especially during major wars in the timelines. All three videos so far are about the Byzantine Empire, but scenarios featuring other nations are in the pipeline.

Bad Flags
Bad Flags is the second series that Atom596 started, and it only contains one video. In that episode, titled Bad Flags: USA States, Atom596 went through the state flags of the United States and redrew many of them. The video severely underperformed, so it is unclear if another episode will be produced.

Map Review
The newest series on the channel, Map Review is a monthly series where Atom596 looked at maps submitted on his subreddit, r/pcatom596. He then tries to ad lib an alternate history scenario based around the map. There is only one video in the series, but it has been made clear that Atom596 intends to continue the series.
