How would you change history?

[Lord Baal]

He was a great teacher otherwise he just had a bit of the old misty eyed romanticism for the Greeks. Perfectly acceptable considering the man was 90 years old.

I've come across that too. Old British guy?

For a major world changer; have the colonies not rebel, and not have independance from Britian. What would happen after that, nobody would know.

Old Indian Guy, oddly enough.

Bah, Indian and British are the same nationality.

I've had five different philosophy professors at university - not doing philosophy as my major, before anyone wonders about my total lack of philosophical knowledge, they just tend to take history classes dealing with Athens and similar topics as well - three of whom had hard-ons for Athens. All three, to a man, where old British guys.

I would make communism stay and grow in power. According to Warsaw Pact military doctrine, polish tanks were supposed to conquer northern Germany and Denmark. I would join the tank force and look for my favourite danish poster

In'cheon landing fails; South Korea falls
...
or the United States winning at Vietnam would be interesting.

Wait, you guys lost Vietnam?

 

[Vandal Warlord]

Techniclly, it was a tactical withdraw due to those damn hippies.

That would be a pleasent way to chage history, get rid of the fricken' hippies.

You would probably have also found yours truly for a good part of the time that the warsaw pact was around - cue world war 3!

Duh we lost. We pulled out of their, and then the North counqured the South!

I'd kill the first human.

Grandfather paradox!

I wonder what would have happened if Brian Boru wasn't killed after the battle of Clontarf in 1014 - would a centralised monarchy have been formed that didn't give the Normans an opportunity to invade?

 

[Ansar]

Wait, you guys lost Vietnam?

Uh, uh we didn't lose!! We just...decided to not win

 

[Dumanios]

Send the hippies to Vietnam.

A world without hippies would be a beautiful thing.

Duh we lost. We pulled out of their, and then the North counqured the South!

I suspect you have trouble with sarcasm.

Grandfather paradox!

You're assuming that Quackers is human.

Uh, uh we didn't lose!! We just...decided to not win

I like this rationale.

Send the hippies to Vietnam.

They tried that, most of them hid in Canada.

Some people shouldn't be allowed to teach.

My religious education teacher told us straight-faced that it made sense that bible folk apparently frequently lived 100+ years because life was less stressful back then.

 

[Huayna Capac357]

Wow.

 

[bestrfcplayer]

Wow.

I know right?

 

[West 36]

Puh. I'd make hippies the norm!
