Re: Alternate history[Here's my Timeline](long)

However, if we take all the fancy military hardware found in the games,
and 
extrapolate (There I go again) that similar technological advances are
being 
applied to most areas of life, including agriculture, we could suppose
that 
those regions would find ways of producing food using far less intrusive

methods.  Also, if we see large shifts in population to colonies, and a 
decrease in demand for foodstuffs on the homeworld proper, we can see
this 
happening. Furthermore, not all the Native Americans who receive these
lands 
back are going to be interested in returning to their 18th & 19th
century 
lifestyles - they like modern life, they just want autonomy.

      The economic value of the region is to important to the nation
and world to allow this major producer of the worlds food to be allowed
to 'return to nature'.	 JTL
