Exploring the various technological, social and cultural revolutions attributed to the incredible development of the human civilization. Were these events the results of a fortunate series of polymaths with the right financial support at the exact right time?

The Roman Empire is attributed to over a thousand years of existence, yet they never experienced an industrial revolution? However, they did innovate superior forms of construction material for buildings and roads that endure to this day.

The Renaissance enabled a nationally, culturally and socially divided land to advance from horse and wagons to supersonic aircraft and artificial intelligence in five hundred years.

Is there another explanation behind these extraordinary events? Could they be the result of a different series of events on a different timeline with a focus on salvage, reverse engineering and efforts to restore ruined machines and lost technology?
