ISOT What if The entire US military is ISOT to Rome in 300 AD

Alright, all assets of the US military outside of nukes? Our sat network? GPS net work? Internet network? Comms network? Phone network?
All of these things are a pivotal part of the US Military. And I would assume Chinese military, life boat on how everything works.
 
All assets except nukes.
So you basically give the US military NSA, DIA, NGA, etc etc, since they are DoD. They then use a carrier to provide power and you have a network so powerful China and the US combined here could have the whole planet mapped and basically be unstoppable.
Because we have access to everything.
We also have more then enough capabilities to fully start an industrial revolution a thousand years or 2 earlier...
 
US military personnel is down to looting locals - they have no money recognised as such in 300AD. Of course, there are beads and other trinkets to barter with the DTs ...

Most US military personnel are nominally Christians - and all belong to sects yet to be invented, in some cases over 1500 years into the future. Some sects are just around the corner, though ...

As the locals have already used a few passing mentions to invent murky concepts like e.g. the Trinity and are eagerly killing one another over details of the Nature of Christ they will eagerly wrap their minds around even more convulted ideas like the Holy Wafer, Predestination, etc.
Lots of fun!

Jesus might never be born in this timeline

And the Jews will be VERY confused as to how an offshoot of their religion got so much recognition and lots of theological and scientific debate
 
I guess I mixed those up

Hopefully they theologically argue against slavery many centuries/millenia in advance

No need for that.Jews had nothing against slavery,but christianity from the start teached that slaves are as good children of God as their masters.
They only never supported any kind of revolution.

Thanks, reminds me of talks with two of our old Religious-Social-Conservative types, I tried pointing out how the Ancient Jews and Christians and offshoots took a real long while to be against slavery even back in Rome
 
The UTs will be against slavery because they are UTs (and from the USA). and not due to religion.
EDIT:
And the US military - with the gift of 10 years of supplies - will rule the world, let alone the Roman Empire.

I imagine that Latin quickly evolves into something like Castillian (i.e. Spanish). Roughly 1/5th of the UTs are Native Speakers, plus there are those who know it as a 2nd language.
