Earlier inventions thread Inventions that could have changed the world What invention or discovery happened oddly late or early ? Alternate Science History How would technology advance in a continuing Hellenistic Age ? Better technology exchange between China and Europe WI pre-Columbian ideas and tech were universal in the Americas ? Challenge: Arabian Science Continues Pre-industrial era inventions that could have been invented in the middle ages How to advance pre-Columbian America ? Challenge: American natives technologically even with Europeans by the 15th century AD Challenge: Earlier Scientific Revolution Challenge: Western-style 'Englightenment' era in the Middle East WI: Assyriology instead of Egyptology How far can Western technology advance with a POD prior to 1900 ? Challenge: Retard technological development in the 20th Century Technology level by 1945 in a world where WWI never happened WWI with more progressed technology Technology after a German WWI Victory ? WWII with more progressed technology Technological progress without WWII or Cold War Britain's technological lead in the 1950s Challenge: With a POD no earlier than 1950, make humanity more advanced than in OTL in all scientific fields by the year 2000 How advanced could we have become by the year 2000 Overrated technologies Not-invented-here: Successes and Missed Opportunities Overlooked Technologies, Unusual Effects, and Forgotten Weapons The "Introduce a little invention at some point in time" thread ASB WI: Dreams can be recorded —- ==== See Also ==== Points of Divergence : Agriculture Points of Divergence : Economy and Trade Points of Divergence : Society and Societal norms Points of Divergence : Arts, Architecture and Monuments —- ==== Navigation ==== Points of Divergence Main Directory**
