Badass alternate history

Unlike technologies such as the light bulb or the telephone, the internet has no single “inventor.” Instead, it has evolved over time. The internet got its start in the United States more than 50 years ago as a government weapon in the Cold War. For years, scientists and researchers used it to communicate and share data with one another.

Baba has played too much hoi4

Then Neo Liberal globo homo vs Communist Globo Homo

Germany vs Britain part III

Theyre claiming some net created for science divisions to communicate is the first instance of an internet

That's true.
