If you could travel back in time to any era to live for the rest of your life what era would it be and why? What country would you choose? And if it's possible who would you want to spend time with?

hmmmm either 1400s when knights and chilvary existed. to see richard the lionhearted
or 1700s when old shcool pirates kicked ass. go see black beard
I think I like living in my own era. Maybe a few years earlier, like if I was born in 1983 or something. As many complaints as I have about our society today and how its going to hell, there are a lot of things that I love and enjoy that weren't available so many years ago. Not knowing what I know and being born in centuries past, I would probably be dead by the age of 40.
As much as I hate to say it, this time period is pretty great overall.
I'd live in the 1870s as an aristocratic gentleman of the Junker class and play poker with Bismarck and Wilhelm on tuesdays while discussing the acquisition of Alsasce and Lorraine. Bismarck would be like "If we have another war it will be because of some damn foolish thing in the balkans." and i'd be all like "Well the French are still pissed about Lorraine, man." and he'd be like "They won't do ****, i'm working on an alliance with the Russians." and I'd be like "Ya but Wilhelm won't make it happen so we'll be stuck in a two front war, lol, Plus you gonna get fired LOL." and Bismarck would glare at Wilhelm awkwardly.fidosim
I smell a sitcom.

I'm trying to think of a title.Otto and Friends?
Any time between 1607 and 1865, as a citizen of the United States. That would be grand.FuriousGeorge08
Let us ponder what your citizenship would be during some of those dates...

Let's BUMP this a little.
If you could be a fly on the wall (so to speak) anywhere or anytime where and with who would you want to be? Note***You don't necessarily need to be a fly. You could a picture, or a pet,or whatever you can conjure up.

Now that's tough. I dunno, Voltaire, Socrates, Einstein, DaVinci, Newton, Franklin, Jefferson, FDR, Elizabeth, Che, Marx, Lenin, DuBois, Malcolm X, Descartes, Ghandi, Lincoln, Dickens, Shakespeare, Poe, Shelley, Thoreau, Douglass, MacArthur, Eisenhower, and many others. That's way too unfair to narrow something like that down to one person. As to what I would be, could I be a human? Not someone very close to them, just someone they're comfortable enough to have intellectualdiscussions with.
No one has gone along with my BUMP. Imagine if you could (Example) be in the room with Heath Ledger, Marilyn Monroe, Kurt Cobain or Elvis Presley in their last days to see what really took place. Maybe being a playboy bunny back in Hef's prime. Let's go way back and say watching Sparta Kick major A$$ against the Persians. ( I do realize that someone did post being alive back when Sparta was around). How about watching asMoses lead the Israelites out of Egypt to see if the Red Sea was really parted. Being in the same room as Jack the Ripper to see how menacing he really was. How about if you could be a pet in the same house as Albert Einstein. There are so many cool events that one could witness.
If I could chose to jump into the body of a random person, I'd be a random person during the crucifixion of Jesus. I would yell to the guards "Guys, this REALLY is not going to work out in the way you intended."No one has gone along with my BUMP.
