Ahead of its time

[IceMan30]

Compared to other humans elsewhere in the world..
How far ahead would this be, considering that its the Pleistocene and Wooly mammoths, Cave lions and Saber Tooth cats were still strong and walking around..
And we still shared the earth with the Neanderthals and Early modern Homo Sapien Idaltu humans, and things like the Short faced bear and dire wolves.
and so on...

If I got a bunch of people...
Maybe 5 or 6 thousand people...
To colonize the area that is now modern Britain...
The purpose of course is to separate ourselves from intense competition in Southwest France..


And we made row houses, and buildings from logs.

We Codified a language, a very crude but simple mathematical system.
Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division, and a system of units based on a certain type of leaf to judge distance, and wood blocks to judge weight.

And standardized time.

After codifying and practicing the language, we actually conducted a public gathering of sorts...
And actually declared the place our "homeland" roughly meaning "nation" or country in modern language.

And we gave the place a name... something roughly meaning "Pine Land"

And we wrote a constitution of sorts, probably something along the lines of a Charter or a Bill of Rights or something.


We made canoes from logs... capable of fairly long distance travel to bring things from other places to our land...

And we brought back from the Americas..
Wood, Peppers, Pineapples, Oranges and Bananas...
Coffee beans and Sugar cane
Animals like Wild Turkeys, baby horses, infant cats, and wolves..

And materials like Gold and Silver.
Update: And from Asia we brought back home with us, things like cotton... and tea, and Junglefowl birds and whole apple trees.

And we sent our kids to an early form of "school", and we made paper and used drawing and language to make the first idea of a "newspaper" to spread information with.

We made simple red, white and blue flag, and used the Pinecone as a Symbol.

We paved our roads with wood, and created a wood deck to make sidewalks and stairs and simple ramps with...

We used the wheel, to make wagons to transport kids to this early form of school and back home again.


We began to pay people with paper money and metal coins for doing work.... the first jobs was construction, and planting and harvesting crops...

We made a simple indoor hospital based on plant based medicines and cotton bandages and small log and twine based casts and wooden canes and crutches..


We manufactured things like canoes, clothing, bows and arrows and wooden furniture..
And opened things like restaurants and stores, and a bank and simple post office.

And we started to give our villages and roads a name, and put numbers on our log cabins.

We had a zoo with animals in there to learn about the animals around us...

And we made our first boot-camp based army with a wool uniform and name tag and spears and bows and arrows and canoes and horses.


Then we made a wooden rail road... and turned the basic horse and buggy, into a horse drawn train with 3 long wooden stage coach-like cars.
Then progressed to being able to power it manually by cranking it with a seesaw like wooden mechanism.

lmao !
