Game: you get to start out in 1499, January. Any country of your choice.
You are allowed to bring as much as you can carry.
Wat do?
England because I speak the language. Bring a few lenses, beat Galileo and Kepler to the telescope, build optical telegraph, profit immensely.

Have fun getting burned at the stake.

You are actually retarded
As an American I will put the 2nd ammendment to its best use by travelling to Japan and fulfill my weaboo dream of becoming shogun trough superior firepower.

China. I bring a camera obscura and silver nitrate, both which could be made at the time. I invent photography early, profit immensely. Use the profits to build a boat and buy a lot of food and guns and prostitutes and a few trusted d00ds.
Travel to Australia with Chinese prostitutes. Impregnate them. Start a culture. Invent Pantheist religion with pro-logic/science dogma. Assimiliate abbos. Make based Black/Asian superrace. Before I die I encourage them to spread to the Polynesian islands.

Spain
1000 copies of the world map w/
currents
Sell to Spanish armada, collect muh Quetzalcoatl gold
Some liveable, uninhabited island with fresh water.
I can carry three pubescent girls of differing ethnicities (Euro, East Asian, African), a machete, a firestarter, a decent modern gun with some ammo, and two weeks worth of ready-made astronaut-style food packs.
For the next several years, errbody gets to work making shit, figuring out the island, locating reliable food sources.
Once stability is achieved, and when the females of the island come of relative age, start to populate. Hope that the variety of genetics minimizes the results of eventual inbreeding.
Expolore the nearby oceans for more people. Encourage them, by force if necessary, to join the tribe.
Start exploring for copper/iron ore.

The Philippines.
Nothing but my knowledge.
Teach them how to beat the Spaniards and make better cannons.
Then I carve out my own Kingdom and keep the Christian religion, but always keep the filthy white devils at arms length.

Never going to happen.

I doubt that.

I said minimize, not eliminate.
Besides, consider the people living on Tristan de Cunha today. They came from just a handful of settlers of the racial stock, and with latent genes for asthma.
Today, even with all that inbreeding, they're living and doing well -- but for the asthma. I think the scenario above would have a good chance of faring at least as well. Especially if neighboring tribes are brought in to diversify the genetic pool. Small-scale population transfers (both by force, and voluntary) are not unknown even today among tribal societies.
Carry 2 maps of current world, whiskey, lighters, m1903 on my shoulder, and food. Arrive in Spain and try to destroy Spanish navy with the whiskey and lighter. Try and make my way to Scotland and then give them one of the maps. Then try and wait and live until Kalmar Union then try and give them the other map.

Tiger Woods would like a word.
And what about the rest of my plan?

Aren't filipinos basically Abos+Chinese?
>>1329276
England with a laptop full of anime. Bide my time as a barrel maker until I can meet young Bill Shakespeare. Introduce him to anime, change literature forever.
