If given a chance, would you love to go 200 years back?

I haven't really thought about it, but I might. Just to see how things were back then, and make changes if they elected me president:)

No. We were serfs 200 years back and a lot my ancestors faced discrimination in the Russian Empire...and I like how clean things are today.

Hello Phillip!

Yes, I would like to go back 200 years back. Life was a lot simpler back then. People make things so complicated these days. As far as missing cell phones, internet and all these high technology, if you don't have it, then you will not miss it. LOL...:)

Take care my friend...Happy mylotting!:)

I have always give that a thought. but i don't want to relax, I want to change history and seek victory against the colonizers. i would go back with all the knowledge i have from my time. not to mention, weapons and technology that would defeat the invaders,and future occupiers. our history is also part shame and betrayal. if that happens, maybe my country would have strong nationality and patriotism in their country. .but that's just a thought.

hello, phillip. naaaa.... i don't bother going pack to history because i know life in the past is not easy. I don't want to witness how my country man struggle and shed blood to fight for our freedom and most of all i don't want to be part of that war.lol It scares me a lot. It will be a traumatic experience for me and for sure I'll end up in asylum.Grrrrr...!!

200 years back.. so 1800..hmm that's not a bad period to go back to.. there's lots that have happened and i'd probably be in the united states around then.. before slavery was a big issue and yet right when the nation was starting on the east coast.. i think it would be pretty neat to live back then and experience things as you know they would turn out.. (would i/ can i change it?) .. it'd be scary though because that means there's the possibility you can change history.. but 500 years back is too far back i think.. and i would probably last around 2 - 3 weeks before going crazy and wanting to go back to the modern world with all the technologies and stuff..

good topic that u have started .if get a chance to go back to 200 years then i want be a king of one island with lot jewels and more so that we can see diamonds on road as olden days ....i want play with them ...

Good day phillip_shiny,

Well for me, based on the stories that I have heard and from the history books that I have read, I think I would love to go back to that time 200 years back. The life before are pretty much simple than we have right now, but I think it is pretty much easier to live during those days . And I think it is very interesting to know how is the life of our great great ancestors have been during those days .

God bless.
Happy MyLotting .

My grandparents often tell us life was really simple back then, even if there's no TV's, mobile phones, computers, and all these modern technological inventions, and there's very little or even no pollutions at all. Children went out in the streets and played without thinking they would be kidnapped. People were happy without this or that thing. Sicknesses and diseases that become epidemics today were very few or absent during those times. They were content with their simple lifestyle. I even thought about it before but I can do nothing about it. I believe it is no accident I was born and grew up on this so-called technological and information age. Even if life is complicated nowadays, I believe, I still can make it simple by my way of life.

No, I would not want to go back in time. From whatever I have read in my history books, those times were definitely the dark ages of human history. Apart from the lack of technologies, I think the very society was more harsh and poorly developed. Communication was a big problem…going from one place to another was a big uncomfortable journey in itself. There was practically no freedom for women, education was restricted to the privileged, no infrastructure so to speak of. Lack of proper humane laws and strict punishment codes are really something I would be scared of. And then we had those kings and landlords whose every word was a command…I would have little freedom as a common person.
Even if I was born privileged, I would still not like to go back to those dark times.
