Fan Theories Nine

The Klingon empire.....
.......almost joined the Federation but left as a result of a military coup which ended their brief experiment with democracy. Planets conquered by the Klingons either joined the Federation or became part of the Klingon Neutral Zone

The series "Humans" and "Space: Above and Beyond" are set in the Star Trek universe. The AI War was later referred to as "world war three" and was an attempt by the Synths to increase their number.

The Klingons are really Augments, genetically modified humans who left Earth during the Eugenics War. These Augments conquered a number of planets and created the Klingon empire. Elements of the conquered culture's religions ended up becoming adopted by the Klingons. 

Vulcan Intelligence deliberately started the Earth-Romulan_War

This was done by providing Earth with Vulcan technology. When Earth ships started exploring and setting up outposts near the Romulan border, the Romulans attacked believing they were preventing a Vulcan preemptive strike. 

Vulcan-Romulan hostilities (presumably previous?) had been established in Star Trek: Voyager.  

Vulcan's reasoning was that this would have prevented a greater conflict between Earth and Vulcan on one side and an alliance between the Romulan and Andorian empires on the other.

Considering the common Vulcan disdain for humans and Starfleet, is Vulcan really a Federation member?

Ditto Trill and Betazed as they clearly have caste-based systems.

The Federation and Starfleet came up with the Prime Directive after Earth was contacted by the The Culture.

The United Federation of Planets is really the GFCF from Surface Detail. Like the Culture, the United Federation of Planets uses alien mercenaries, but in this case as diplomats (i.e. Vulcans, Trills and others).In return, members of these species are allowed to join Starfleet as if they were Federation citizens.

Westeros 2

One thing which bothers me about ASOIAF/GOT  is the height of the Wall and the fact that people have been able to cross over it. Not just stone-age Wildlings but that the (supposedly under-manned and under-funded) Night’s Watch were not only able to get to the top of the Wall but actually place defences on the top!  The Wall is actually so high that people would get blown off by the wind on a regular basis! It is established in the books that the Wall (which is 700 feet high and 300 miles long) protects itself, so perhaps this is more of a plot hole. OK, so let's imagine that the Wall is, actually (more like) 300 feet high and 150 miles long, while some parts of it have fallen down. At these parts the Night's Watch have their fortifications. Specifically Castle Black, Mole's Fort which basically contains a trebuchet and Eastwatch, where the Wall is a consistent 200 feet high and extends 60 feet into the Narrow Sea  There are a number of abandoned castles on the W...

Fan Theories

Family Guy is really set in Hell! Specifically one of the Hells in the  Culture  novel "Surface Detail". The television programme "American Dad!" is also set in one of these Hells, but different to the one Family Guy is set in. Think about it. The characters never age and most would end up institutionalised if they lived in a normal society. It also, perhaps, makes sense that the creators of these Hells would consider early twentieth century North America, Earth, a suitable place to set these Hells. In Surface Detail the Hells are terrible places where the downloaded  personalities of the dead are maintained. It's denizens are routinely raped by demons (one of whom may be Glen Quagmire ) or forced into arbitrary wars. All rapes result in pregnancy (Hell is a pretty horrible place of course), which is reminiscent of certain Family Guy episodes where unexpected or bizarre pregnancies occur.

This doesn't reall...
