If they have anything like an airborne early warning they will be able to see this thing hundreds of miles off. Let alone orbital surveillance. And something of this much value is worth throwing many missiles at. An airbase can be quickly brought back up to operation by patching up a...

That still doesn't solve the biggest source of conflict which is the expanding white population demanding more land. The natives don't have enough population and power behind them to stop individuals or small groups from moving beyond the borders and setting themselves up. Once they do the...

I don't see how you can get such large numbers of mixed Native and other in the U.S. as the population of natives in the U.S. was drastically smaller than in Central and South America. At the time of independence the white population was two orders of magnitude larger than the native population...

It also not like they lasted all that long as a significant power in the area. As soon as the white population of Texas started to grow the power of the Comanche quickly faded. The United States also never fought the natives with all of its power. Most of the fighting was done by local...

My question to this is what stops the settlers from just forming militias and taking care of the problem themselves. The British have no where near the administrative capacity or will to disarm the settlers.

Except which islands are so isolated from the others than can't be reached with air cover from another island.

Which developing countries would need aircraft far enough away from their own territory to justify a carrier?

Also Europe is shattered and almost completely destroyed.

So unless they get lucky they are going to maybe produce a "battery" once but will be unable to reproduce it.

Did the ancients even know what zinc was? I believe it was discovered during the enlightenment.

It reads like it was written by an Iranian nationalist. But on the topic of slavery I figure that it existed in the empire before the conquests of Alexander and after and would continue to do so with all of the successor empires until the modern era.

They were used. Examples of other types have been discovered.

That only works if the many people working at a base are from one area. In the U.S. at least they have long discarded units only raised from a single state even let alone only one city. The only part that works that way is the national guard which doesn't handle strategic weapons.

I can see it. Most modern firearms end up with very similar systems just due to the fact that all designs will converge after a long enough time onto a generally most optimized design for each roll.

But let's not imagine that no one else could come up with this. As Forgotten Weapons has demonstrated over the many years he has made videos there are many people who designed firearms. Many of them were perfectly fine but were not successful for often small reasons. If Glock doesn't do it...
