One Tiny Detail.
Think about it. If one minuscule detail were to change, just one little thing…all of history would be different. If a young Adolf Hitler had decided to follow his teachers’ advice and pursue a career in architechture, there wouldnt have been a World War 2…no holocaust, no berlin wall, no east and west berlin, which in turn might mean that JFK wouldnt be seen as such a great president. If the Wright Brothers allowed themselves to be discouraged by multiple failed flights, theres a possibility that powered flight might not have existed at all. If Abraham Lincoln or even Buchanan had found a way to resolve the American Civil War without hostilities, many leaps forward in technology like the Minié Ball, predecessor to the modern bullet, and the Ironclad Warship, predicessor to the modern warship, wouldn’t have come to prominence. Going back farther still, if the Julius Caesar had not made a side trip to the then primitive island nation of the Cassiterides, hadnt seen fir to conquer the nation of Gaul, or the Carthaginians, then the 3 powerhouse nations that would essentially rule the world for the next several CENTURIES (Britain, France, and Spain) wouldnt have even existed. This means that incredible advancements in guns, sailing, tactics, government, and religion would never have happened. Moreover, they wouldnt have been around to expand colonies, meaning there would be no New Zealand, no Australia, no America, no Mexico, no Canada, no South Africa. it really makes you wonder if the tiniest decision you make will eventually have an effect on the world so incredible that it changes the very course of human evolution.

Going back farther still, if the Julius Caesar had not made a side trip to the then primitive island nation of the Cassiterides, the nation of Gaul, or the after his conquering of Gaul, there may have never been a decision to annex them as the new nation of Brittania, meaning Great Britain would never have developed into the world’s most powerful nation for almost 500 years. Guns and naval warfare would be severely different…even further, Colonial Britain wouldnt have been there to expand,
