Create What If? Faceless Videos

What if the Library of Alexandria had never been destroyed? This ancient wonder housed hundreds of thousands of texts from across the world, serving as a beacon of knowledge and wisdom. Had it survived, we may have had advanced innovations centuries earlier. Imagine a world where the Renaissance occurred in 500 AD, where we set foot on Mars in the 1800s, or where we discovered clean energy millennia ago, all because our ancestors had access to this trove of wisdom. A world where the Library of Alexandria survived could have been one of limitless possibility.

What if the Mayan civilization hadn't mysteriously disappeared? This remarkable civilization was an epicenter for advanced mathematics, astronomy, and architecture. If they had persisted, we could have seen a notably different New World. Imagine a world where Europeans colonizing the Americas faced technologically advanced societies, where Mayan glyphs were a third global language today or where Mayan astronomical insights had accelerated our understanding of the universe. Life today could be drastically different.

What if the Vikings had remained in North America? These Norse seafarers established a colony in Newfoundland around 1000 AD, but didn't stay long. Suppose they had, we might have seen a Europe-North America axis of power centuries before Columbus. Imagine a Scandinavian-influenced America, where Old Norse mixed with Native American languages, Viking longboats cruising the Mississippi, or Norse mythology entwining with Hollywood culture. Truly, an alternate reality worth fantasizing about.
