Many things are happening right now that never occured in my Worldline. To us, this is an education in what we might have done differently, and what we still might face in rebuilding Europe.
For instance - ISIS? We never had an ISIS terrorising Afghanistan and the Muslim nations in my 2014. By 2014, the US government in it's current state did not exist. It certainly was in no position to fight a war with anyone.
Northern Ireland was the nation vying for independence from the UK government in 2014, and with widespread civil unrest and the British £ dying a death, the last remnants of UK government were in no position to try to hold it. Ireland regained N Ireland in early 2016, at which time Britain adopted the Euro as it's official currency.
Another area I've been sent to study is the Royal Family. See, by 2012, the Royal Family had all been evacuated to Canada, which had a small semblance of stability as it was able to secure it's borders against the American Civil war, whilst Britain was still a broken country.
So Prince William and his wife Kate having children? Never happened for us . In fact, there was no Kate Middleton. Understand, we knew this Worldline differed from our own before I was sent here, but we couldn't be sure how or in what specific area's. My assignment is to use my knowledge of our own history to look at the political landscape, make comparisons and record, and try to predict what the events occurring now, that never occured for us will do to the future of Europe and the UK.[DOUBLEPOST=1410899080,1410898503][/DOUBLEPOST]Sorry Halovesya, didn't see you there. We can only assign as many missions as there are Displacement Devices in our possession. I'm afraid the UK is still in no position to begin manufacture on our own Displacement technology, but we are working on back-engineering the ones we have, so far with limited success.
When I left, there were 4 other missions being launched, to different worldlines. I know at least one was a historical-study assignment. The other 3, I was not privy to the nature of their assignments. I can tell you that the sophistication of the displacement technology differs, as does how much power it can handle and the size of the field it can generate. My device can travel accurately to a range of 50 years, or so I was told. The further back I try to go past the 50 year mark, the wider the divergence between worldlines and the more risk I could renter into a Worldline drastically different from my own. The unpredictability of that alone would be pretty dangerous.
