Join the conversation to see if you could lead humanity to greatness or if we are all just doomed to be eaten by predators.
You wake up in an ancient, pre-industrial civilization. You can't bring anything with you—only your knowledge. How far could you advance humanity?

Selective advancement
Level 120 mabye
Dr stone
reinvent bread
selective🤔..
go on..
W.
but u Gotta invent flour and other ingredients
agriculture came first mate ..im just min maxing it yk
tf is that
I would only allow the invention of things I find fastinating
Could even bring an era way earlier than it was about supposed to be
Ngl we'd all probably die from a plauge
Buttttt if I don't die to a plauge early on (or just don't get it) I could probably help with things such as the literacy rate. Mathematics and biology?
Realistically.
All of the stuff I could contribute has already been made by the romans. 💀
can I get a specific year?
I learned a lot of history to impress a girl(didn't work out), so now I have a lot random shit stuffed in my noggin, so If I'm placed somewhere I researched, I could pretend to be a messenger from god.
will we be placed in a place where the people even speak our language too lol?
cause old english is wayy diff from modern english.
Only language that I can think of. (That I know, and can write/speak) is latin, and even then, my latin is bunsss.
we're talking "barbaric" ..
like.. fvcking no-cutting tools-yet ancient
bad communication, no music, no whatever the fuck
is our survival guranteed. or do we gotta work for thattoo.
I mean.. depends on if, 💀
where are we placed?
like, on the map.
Rand.
random
💀
damn can't complain about bad leaders
yeah we're cooked.
tribal era humanity = we're being eaten by either animals, or by other humans.
but you know how animals behave.. you know how to kill, you can make tools💀
ah yes..
you're good at maths?
that could take u a long way building bridges and stuff
Better then most people were back then at least
Since yk education wasn't exactly standardized?
wasn't even a thing if we're talking.. back back in time
I'm gonna be fr.
I don't think most people know how to prepare an animal.
or make tools.
None, hoard it and become the apostle of some made up god.
I think we will reach the stone age at some point using horses to fight in wars will be common again....
THAT FAR?
Oh I'm cooked
even before he gets there u can predict Jesus would come.
damn right..
one thing is for sure you gonna rule them.
anybody that studies herbs and stuff will be like..god.
you mean.. we, asin our civilisation? I doubt.
that far.
u might not be lol..
I mean besides from things like plauges and such, there are wild animals and I have no idea where the beginning of civilization is starting so I can't exactly get help either
Not what i meant...
Nah. There would be no leaders
There would just be one leader
That's gonna be me
Not really neither, plant species have evolved massively.
