With a PoD that is reasonable(no "Hellenistic Scientists scale up steam toy and suddenly it's zepplinpunk in 1500") speed up the development of atomic energy and research.) Assuming development sped to a reasonable but noticable degree what consequences result? Do we see changes in disease rates, or different procedures for atomic waste containment? Does this affect the use of oil or other fuels, and what consequences does that have? I'm curious both about the economic effects of oil becoming less important, or used primarily for automotive transport, as well as peripheral uses(does radiation therapy become common earlier, and what public health effects does it have. I'd also be curious about the effects on Africa and other places with important uranium and similar deposits. Do said African areas gain geopolitical importance? I'd be curious if this affects colonization or possibly decolonization. I would be curious as well about similar questions applied to other areas with similar resources.
