Fan theories 18

Hi there, this is Elench-San and I have more Dragon Ball theories!

There is a lot about the franchise that is either contradictory or shouldn't be taken too seriously. For example the anime often shows a realistic globe of the Earth or a view from space with identifiable continents. 
But a map of the "Dragon World" is slightly askew.

This perhaps lends to two completely bonkers theories: Dragon World is basically Arda  (as in Middle Earth, Hobbits and shit) or Planetos (as in Wars of the Roses, continent-sized empires, dragons!)
OK maybe not, but one can actually connect Toriyama's world with Tolkien's. Both have dragons, gods, werewolves and vampires as well as collectible jewels!

The map often given is reminiscent of that of "Planetos".

The reason a fantasy world maybe set in the distant past of Earth is to do with those titular dragon balls. This is also why the world is also so apparently depopulated. 

Someone wished to be 
King of the World!!!! 

A World Government would require advanced technology or at least a global communication network.

What would you do?

What would you do if you knew you had a hundred years to live? Perhaps you wouldn't care. What if you knew you had a hundred years to act before you knew society would collapse? Perhaps you are obsessed with the threat from Russia, overpopulation or migration? Perhaps you know about climate change but don't care. But imagine how our government would act if humanity's biggest threat wasn't itself but another species? All governments, yours and mine, would be on a perpetual war footing. So why don't we all REBEL? Because twenty years ago we collectively had a hundred years to live. Twenty years ago it would have been reasonable for: 1. The Pope and the Catholic Church to embrace contraception 2. Ditto the American Right 3. The UK government to ban people from driving a petrol-driven car on a Sunday 4. The UK government to give free bus travel to everyone under 25 and the unemployed 5. Governments around the world to replace coal powered methods of ge

Pokemon are real!

Because  Jigglypuff's song  makes people fall asleep  and she gets angry ...............................and writes on people's faces when they are asleep! The result What the $%*&????? and this poor victim: So if Jigglyuff is real then Pokemon have to be real too!

UFO

Time to debunk the extra-terrestrial hypothesis? Yes. Let's use our imaginations and consider non-ET explanations for this phenomenon. 1. UFOs are an aerial plasma phenomenon similar to ball lightning. This explains why they appear to follow aircraft and apparently interfere with electronic devices. 2. UFO phenomena are a result of individuals witnessing top-secret military technology. By deliberately associating the phenomenon with aliens, the government can discredit any witnesses and keep any technology it wishes out of the public domain. They could even have access to free energy but believe this would disrupt the economy if it were ever revealed. By promoting the Extra-Terrestrial Hypothesis, the government and the corporations that support it stay in power at everyone else's expense. Presumably this is a CIA-style psychological operations programme. 3. UFOs are intelligent entities in of themselves. The abduction phenomena could be a kind of vision by the abducte
