It seems the fact that the old world came to the new world instead of the other way around was overlooked. The incubation time of any potentially fatal new world disease would most likely be shorter than the trans Atlantic crossing time limiting the spread back to the new world. Like wise if in an alternate timeline the new world came to the old, the return trip would have limited the spread of these diseases as they died returning to the Americas, and when a ship returns from a far way land with many of the crew & passengers dead or dying, I don't think it takes a rocket scientist to want to quarantine them before letting them back into general population.

Wow. So good.

Really great video. However, horses actually evolved in North America and went extinct in North America between 7,000-10,000 years ago, sometime after human arrival there. The reason isn't known but it might have been humans. :/ So the North Americans possibly could have had horses. Otherwise though they definitely had a worse deal for domestication. Guinea pigs and llamas; it can't get much worse than that.

i would add that the americas actually had horses, but they were massacred by native americans. i would also add that the americas had some variety of sheep, but were never domesticated. so there were some tools that the native americans possessed but never domesticated. was it because these north american varieties were like the zebra?

While europeans had the right animals, americans had the right plants (potatoes, corn, etc.). Why didn't this play a role?

Bubonic, Septicemic, Pneumonic, Justinian, and other types of Plague even today thinking about the matter Plagues our mindsets.

So it is smart that i don't want to be around animals (and some people like niggers, jews, etc.).
-
here is a interesting follow up question to this idea of moving the animals around. if the people of north america had rinses to power and dominated the world would that mean most of the world languages be poly synthetic
