Larry of the Lawn Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Would be cool to see someone ride into battle on one though. A llama could probably bear a lightly armored little person into the fray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A llama could probably bear a lightly armored little person into the fray. They would also have been breed into larger animals if they were going to be used that way. The really sad part is that the Aztecs had wheeled toys but never thought to make wheeled carts. All the pieces were there to make North and South American civilizations able to compete technologically with European invaders they just never came together.

No. But... those who did survive might have had a better chance at fighting back against the newcomers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they certainly can, because in the long-run our modern states can only be weakened by globalization. But it's a type of social organization that is incredibly resilient, no doubt because it is deeply rooted in human history. At the same time, the State has evolved so considerably that I'm not even sure how you define it. I'd say before humans move past the State, it will become barely recognizable. Nowadays, states have lost much of their power over economics. If the trend continues, it could turn states into empty shells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
