https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prodrazvyorstka The problem of early XX was that the artifical fertilizers started being produced in 1913. As well, the conveyor belt for machinery production in 1912. So, if the events happened a decade later, things would go easieer. As now they see what and how to, the urban areas would just keep the countryside under control with no options. -

Survives, but not him. Unless he sits 300 m deep inside a suspended armored hull. Who wasn't holding on to something massive or hiding in a room. Also, making a dog from fingers is as traditionally highly recommended, to keep your spirit brave and to burn a funny figure on the closest wall. And don't forget the 7/10 rule. After 7 hours from the badaboom the radlevel drops by 10 times, at 48 h by 100 times. That's why you should sit in a vault for 2 days and then get out and optimistically walk away perpendicularly to the GZ direction (to cross the fallout, which is 45° wide). Of course, any simple rad-meter is highly recommended to be sure that you aren't walking into the contaminated sector from a clean one. Sitting longer only irradiates you more than on top, that's why thou shalt not take a bag of food and sit inside, and why the vaults are for 2..3 days, not for living there like in postapocs. 19,000 of which are cheaper that a warhead even including the citizens and don't deserve it even on their request. At least, first < 9 months, while your blood keeps carrying red blood cells produced before the bone marrow had been irradiated and stopped producing them. But it gives 3 months of optimism and good feeling, so enjoy it while you can. But if you have survived 9 months and still here, your marrow stayed enough undamaged. They do, because 3/4 of modern agricultural productivity is provided by industrial products (nitric fertilizer and machinery). Also US agro depends on artificial watering, cuz it's at Central Asia latitude. Without it, the productivity falls down for 4 times, down to the early XX 500..1000 kg/ha. On the bright literally side, the number of food consumers got also adjusted to. The way from 1900 first cars to 1970 oil crysis was done in 70 years and nobody knew the way, and they twice destroyed the whole economics and industry during that time. With a roadmap, literature, and examples from the future they would run in two or three decades. Twice longer if cleaning the radiation. Especially when motivated by total mobilization and food control at the beginning. Bigger chieftain - deeper vault. In a year they would be visited by the government issues and report that the territory is under the gov control. 1920s clearly show: it would be restored asap. At least because the external neighbors look and feel much more different. Also 1920s clearly show that it's much better to live in a city but have some food for a year or two. Because the cities always take over, the countryside doesn't. Much greater amount of resources, industry and educated people are concentrated in the cities, that's because they appeared. With the government dollars, telegraph and railroad companies, banks and lawyers, and shells for guns, which are typical signs of anarchy, lol. Why "pseudo", when you are actually a.... well, that's they are calling you so, not you do it yourself, you just let them appreciate you. -

Widely varies, but the usual one is from hundreds to hundred thousands Grays, especially microchips and capacitors, and the "special" materials arren't from unobtanium, too. -

A nuke doesn't devastate the territory, and most of fabrics are reinforced against it. Also there is nothing special in the arms fabrics of XX. They wouldn't need to produce submarines with SLBM and stealth bombers. The civilians would either rely on the army or be forced to rely on it. Because any authorities would first of all take under control any available resource, including food. Also they would need working arms to restore the territory. And everyone who doesn't rely, would automatically become their competitor and declared an out-of-laws bandit. That's why any survived individual postapocaliptic survivor is just a romantic hero of fantasy movies. The system of the state/province/nation authorities is exactly the form which had forced the people work together widely, not locally. The Wild West was just a peripheral rural area of industrial civilisation, populated by lawful farmers and bartenders, and was far from the cinematographic lawlessness. (Also, the spaghetti westerns were filmed by the Italian director in Spain, lol.) Also it was serviced by the railroad built exactly for that. The purpose of the Wild West was to herd Lawful Good cows instead of Chaotic Neutral bisons on the grassland useless to the date as plowland due to the climate. Nothing like anarchia was there. -

But there would be a lot of authorities requiring army, so weapon, so industry, to protect their resources from the neighbor authorities. So, everyone would be immediately forced to join one and work for it. While the tribes, gangs, and lonely rangers would be quickly eradicated as those who "is stealing our resources, eats snacks while we are hrdly working, and is definitely spying for the competing gang". So, irl any individual and tribal survivalism would end very soon. (But of course, Fallout is nice, and other postapocs, too.) The Wild West is not a survivalism. It's a colonisation of steppe for cattle herding performed by a developed industrial urban civilisation. The WW colonists were not lonely romantics, they were excessive human resources expanding from the industrial areas of Europe and... Transatlantic Europe, Ciseuropeans and Transeuropeans. Their cowboy attitude is just a showing-off. They were wearing the European clothes, drinking whiskey, and using guns instead of arrows. -

A two-month lunar expedition is proven. But regolith isn't. It's like a glass wool. They can mine the lunar ice, of course, but should turn it into lunar snow. On the other hand, that's the way to supply an interplanetary ship, a snow making machine. They were suffering, others enjoyed. One woman has a greater sunk tonnage than a wolfpack of subs. Achievement achieved. But her ambiguous luck has a simple and clear explanation. Leprechauns. Either among the ancestors, or a familiar one. They redistributed the total luck in favour of their protegee. *** Also this makes to look at the Titanic disaster at another angle. As we can remember, it almost missed the iceberg, but just almost. Not rammed, but scratched a meter deep. If it rammed, it would probably survive. Isn't it how the leprechauns work? While others blame gremlins, they forgot about the leprechauns, and weren't forgiven.
