Fan theories 13

The Culture existed in the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

Warp entities are what remains of a disastrous-and quite literal-"war in heaven".

Some time after the setting of the "Culture" novels, this war occurs in the realm of the Sublimed. It affects the ability to travel in hyperspace and creates what is later simply known as "The Warp".

The Eldar are what remains of the Culture.

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 Eight

Q both created and manipulated the Borg. They/He did this in order to prevent the version of the Federation in the Mirror Mirror  universe from coming to power. Without the Borg , the events of Star Trek:First Contact  would never have happened and the United Federation of Planets would become the Terran Empire. The Borg also made an alliance between long-time Federation adversaries the Romulan Star Empire. This allowed the Borg to invade Federation space by passing through Romulan space (the first time round) and is the reason for the Enterprise-E being ordered to the Romulan border  in  Star Trek:First Contact . Elder Romulan politicians and officers who opposed the alliance were ousted (and probably assimilated) in a coup, allowing ambitious officers like Sela to come to the fore. It makes a weird kind of sense for the Romulans to ally with the Borg, if only to keep the Federation on its toes. This means t...

A History of the Pokémon W orld/"Earth" (by way of "Watchmen", the "Culture" novels, "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "Warhammer 40,000") c.12,000,000,000 years BCE Sublimation of first civilisations and Minds c.350,000,000-300,000,000 years BCE  Mew culture/civilisation/society develops on Earth and,later, on Venus also They possibly colonise Mars Mew eventually terraform/"Mewform" a variety of planets in other solar systems  The "starter" Pokémon evolve at some point It is possible they were bio-engineered by Mew (singular or plural) to re-terraform the Earth in the case of another die-off  c.4-3,000,000 years BCE Monoliths visit Earth They take various proto-Hominid tribes to other planets around the galaxy to observe their evolution in different environments-I'm tempted to use this as an example/explanation for the prevalence of human/humanoid societies in the Culture galaxy. This doesn't reall...
