There you go, that what I meant, shall you care to read.
-Well, Iberia was invaded by muslim around the 730AC that conquered all the region but Asturias in a decade, them Chisitian took the region back turing the table to fully dominate in by 1500AC. Spain was formed because of marriage that united the two larges realms in the region to create superpower. Cristobal Colon went to the portuguese king before when to Spain to find funding to reach india and found America. Portugal survived centuries of hungry expansion mostly alone against Spain and only got under Spain ifluence because the king of Portugal died in combat in Africa and the PU of Spain created the largest empire in the world ruled by one king, be it Filipe II of Spain, or Filipe I of Portugal. Cortez managed to beat more than a miliion aztec with around 300 Spanish conquistadores. There are more, but the point is trough by now...
-The democracy of ancient Greece could not have reborn in the more modern world, or not in Grece at all in the first place. The light of democracy could never catch on later on and be a failed ilucion that never hit big, kinda like comunism is nowdays. Therefore, democracy was unlikecly to ever existe at all in the grand scale of history since was a exeption that became a rule.
-If Julius Ceasar had not crossed to into Italy, and if the Punic Wars turned out difrently, the history would be difrent no doubt. . And are many moments like that where against odds roman prevailed, it was not unlikecly on itself, but events add up to make history, and the brick or history is luck and Romans left many bricks behind.
-The pyramids of Egypt could be a tower, and could be tiny w and still served as tombs. However they where massive building that even today could hardly be replicated. Manage to endure in the deserts to tell us much about the ancient Egyptian culture. Probably not my brightest exemple amoung these, but I do like piramids.
-The profects of new religion could have been mocked or executed like Jesus did in his time, and the religion died with them to never even be heard and spread. The largest influence in the past was religion and if a single other religion "appeared" in place of other we had very difrent world. Imagine if whole Europe heard the teachings of a Aztec like relegion from the roman instead of catholics church. If the whole of Europe did ritual sarifices, the history would be changed to very difrent way.
