Give me some historial details
I love history and the history channel, but I dont have time to watch it.
The Roman Empire is really interesting, but Im sure life sucked back then.

I would go back to 1755. From that point on I would spend the next 30 years or so engaged in the following activities:
- advising Austrian Empress Maria Theresa to either educate her daughter Marie Antoinette, or else choose a more serious daughter to marry Louis 16th
- advising Gustav III not to take Baron Armfeldt on the trip to Italy, because although Armfeldt was loyal and dedicated, he often showed off and acted immature
- advising Gustav III never to trust Catherine II
- advising Louis 16th:
>to never trust his brothers or cousins
>to never let his wife advise him about politics
>to not hunt so many hundreds of animals because the hunting party would end up trampling the peasants' crops
>to stay with the same finance minister and avoid Jacques Necker
>to keep a close eye on anyone named Herbert, Robespierre, Bonaparte, or Polignac

i wish i can go back to time when the pyramid was made. the mere picture of the pyramid facinates me. i wish i could see how did the egyptian did the near impossible work and why did they do it. the other thing i want to know more about the tower of babylon. in my state of Sikkim, India there is a place called Daramdin where the same sort of structure was created as in babylon. it has always been close to my facinates how is it that two different places but the same motive behind the construction.

If I could go back in time I would want to only stay for about one to five days and not longer due to the health conditions back then. I would travel to the City of Atlantis before it was submerged under water. To Greece to view their worshiping and culture. I'd like to see King Arthur and the knights of the round table. I've always wanted to see what they called a dragon back then as well as to be able to wear the real clothes of that time period. To travel back to the time of England in the early 1600's. To be there when Ben Franklin discovered electricity. I could go on and on ...
It would be even cooler upon my return from traveling that there was no time lost in the present.

Id go to the days of teh prosperity of Babylon - the life seemed to be easy and interesting back then. Also teh prosperity of hettites, just because of their language, which is the language having eldest written memorials in indoeuropean language. Germany just after teh French Revolution - to be able to communicate with J. W. Goethe.

If you could go back to Roman times with the formula for gunpowder memorized you might have a winning combo.

i hate history..and geography...and social studies...but if i could go back in time i would go to the indian times. But in my lifetime I would go back to May of 2005. Sooo many things i could have saved myself and friends from. But i would rather go into the future, past where my life span will take me.

if i can travel back in time, i think dynasty Ching would be my choice...the period of KangXi and QianLong Emperor. Especially QianLong Emperor, i think he contribute a lot in China History...and it is modernize than the other dynasty.
