It's one of the great occult films of the twentieth century

it is a system similar to democracy but much older. simply it is a system where anytime even the smallest decision is made it requires a vote from every citizen of a country. the up side is the system guarantees all people have a voice in the government but the down side is it is enormously inefficient and nothing ever gets done. I think ancient greece had this system in place for a very short time back in the pre-roman empire period.

I think you are getting democracy mixed up with absolute republic, which greece did give the world

Like the list, but have a problem with number nine.
it incorrect to call Peyton Randolph a president due to thew fact the united states had not yet formed when he was incharge, and by definition a president is the elected ruler of a country, not a territory. So although it is arguable, but if you go by the strict definition of a president Peyton Randolph is not a president he was more of a territorial senator at his time.

Like the list. Kinda gives perspective that a lot of people haven't learned anything over the course of the last eight hundred years.

Curious to know what the modern dollar value on the fall of Rome is.

Like lists that are informative about our histories thought, keep more like this coming!

I like the idea for the list,but however , most of these technologies were at least thought up in theory already by science fiction authors by the 1960's. citing the works of Orson Scott Card, Issac Asimov , Larry Niven, and the multitude of other writers from the golden age of science fiction.

Think it would be a good idea to make a follow up list of the things people in the modern times think is immpossible.

anyway like the list!

Like the list, very interesting subject matter.
Definitely the german campaign was the most successful campaign ever. It was really amazing due to the fact that the german economy was nearly collapsed after the first world war and in only ten years or so they got together enough military power to combat the top three most powerful countries in the world at the same time.

on a side note could the Japanese pre world war two expansion be considered a great military campaign?

Anyway good list. keep them coming!
