    It was, the light from the alpha event (aka the Big Bang) reached where Mageddon is, because it reached everywhere. It's just no more light has reached this location since that time, which means it's so far out that no stars are visible from there. This doesn't really make sense but thats...

    From the sound of it, it's so far out that the light from the first stars hasn't reached that point yet. Given that the first stars are believed to have formed roughly 100 to 400 million years after the Big Bang, or as Paul calls it the alpha event. That means that Mageddon and Wonderworld are...

    Heh. Going "I'm not here to fuck [insert local animal]" implies an Australian background for the general, or perhaps he has\had Australian friends and picked up some lingo.

    Warlords are typically somewhat more stable and reasonable people than supervillains, as if a warlord is completely unhinged they tend to come down with a sudden case of knife in the back from one of their more reasonable subordinates.

    No, no they are not. They often bring together Buddhist elements, but the worship of the local land gods or "thần" and the shamanism of Đạo Mẫu is very much not just an alternate flavor of Buddhism. You are probably thinking of Cao Đài, which combines worship of the thần with Buddhism...

    About 76% of the population are either irreligious or follow local folk religions, Buddhists are about 13% and Catholics are about 6%, with some Vietnam-unique syncretic religions like Caodaism and a scattering of other religions like Hinduism filling up the rest. The Buddhists and Buddhism...

    She'd have had to basically abandon her entire culture and family; by the standards of the ancient Greek culture she was 'born into' so to speak, Hades did everything he needed to do. The ancient Greeks were patriarchal as shit and if you wanted to marry a woman you didn't need the woman's...

    One of the most effective ways to force two parties to put aside their differences is to menace them with a third party that neither can deal with alone.

    Only if the power armor has anti-laser coating, which most in the wasteland does not as the coating degrades fairly rapidly when exposed to the elements. Though in this specific case the Black Paladins probably do have the coating, as the Brotherhood and Enclave are the factions most likely to...

    In addition, the way power rings work is the further away they are in the spectrum from the balanced green of will, the more crazed they make their wielders but in exchange the greater the power they grant. Red is one of the extreme far ends of the spectrum, and as a result it grants both the...

    Well its one of those technicalities arguments, because there is no real worldwide agreed upon definition of slavery. But if you accept the modern definition of slavery as defined by the United Nations, then there are absolutely still cultures that are perfectly happy to engage in certain kinds...

    Saying that all the human civilizations on Earth have moved away from slavery would definitely not be true IRL, but this is a world that has gone through two major apocalyptic events that killed a... lot... of people, so its possible it is true now.
