Easy Answer: Godzilla Minus ZeroHard Answer: Watching two dozen movies produced during this period and taking place in it

It's crazy watching those old videos about Hiroshima and Nagasaki with just miles and miles of broken rubble. And those little japs just cleaned it all up with shovels and wheelbarrows and made it better in a few years. Who else could do the same, really?
>>222537334A lot of functional civilizations. Think about it: an atomic bomb has a core that can fit in your hand. Do you think the 'fallout' from such a thing is really that bad? It isn't.

>>222536053Nobody was interested in full-scale investment in Africa. The extent of their interest is basically mines and cash crops, both of which being resource extraction fields that use basic labour and don't necessitate economic advancement to be effective.
The world would have been better
