Also Russia being taken over by Rasputin, if I recall correctly. I still remember the last line from the Russia chapter, because it makes no sense. It's something about "and you know what the word tzar comes from". Which is like, okay so he's calling himself Caesar? How does that matter.
The racism is kinda funny in a way, because it's just every single stereotype you can make up. The Brits fight with longswords and love the queen, the Russians have Rasputin, the Canadians don't exist.
And there's some cool stuff like the french catacombs.
The Palestine chapter should get him executed.
All of the DPRK disappears into mountain bunker complexes for no reason and the book acts like its some mystery whats up now, like they wouldnt just all starve to death like that cause theres no agriculture going on.
The book doesn't really ever answer the question of where all the foods coming from. It has people transporting goods and people rebuilding after, but like I don't recall any interviews with farmers.
There's one chapter where a government bigwig (iirc) is happy now because they spend all their time growing crops. That's all I got
Yeah there's a chapter of a guy being proud they can make root beer again because global trade is returning, but there's not a lot of detail about how peiple procured food during the war (apart from "the government flew supplies to camps, but like where did the government get supplies from?)
This book about a global zombie apocalypse is unrealistic!
