As an experiment, say you gather a group of 50 - 100 volunteers to create a modern village in a reasonably sized plot of land from scratch. How long do you think this would take? How capable is the human race?
The goal is to set up a village of homes relatively modern, with electricity, running water, heating, and plumbing, all the necessities of modern life, from complete scratch. Also some basic electrical devices such as a vacuum cleaner. No tools are provided. Everything will have to come from the land
Unlike history as we know it, in this experiment, the people involved will already know the goal, and have the rough knowlege on how all these things work. This means technology should come at a much more rapid rate. Also the absense of military technology will make more rapid the rate of technological growth.
