just a thought, and a good idea for a disscussion.

yeah i got a good topic to start with what do you thing about the ablitiey of being able to make a person bent to you at will with just the sight of they're eyeball me personally i thought it was cool but what do you think?

Code Geass is set in an alternate history. I thought that was pretty obvious... The first episode etablishes the date with "a.t.b. 2017" or "Imperial Calendar" if you watched the American dub.

Quote from Wikipedia: This divergence in history causes many other differences: the retaining of absolute monarchy, the suppression of the American colonies' rebellion in 1776 and the conquering of the American continents.

Fixed the thread title from "Gode Geass" to the right title of "Code Geass".

my apologies, i didnt realise i goofed up the title

well, the "empire" could have had their own calendar, created during the time between now and 2015 (or whatever).

and i think a monarchy like that would be cooler than a democracy, it not as if our "voice" matters anyway, but thats besides the point.
