History
The Squirrevolution is a theoretical timeline describing the rise and fall of a squirrel-based civilization following the extinction of humanity.
History
Regeneration
Following the disappearance of the human species, the Earth's environment stabilized, allowing for the return of abundant trees and water sources.
Evolution and Expansion
In the absence of humans, squirrels evolved to become significantly larger, reaching lengths of approximately 1 meter. They developed complex social structures and began constructing elaborate tree houses all over the planet.
Technological Advancement
The squirrel civilization rapidly advanced technologically:
- Discovery of electricity.
- Mastery of nuclear fusion for clean energy production.
The Fossil Record
During excavation projects, the squirrels discovered human fossils. They viewed these ancient remains much like modern humans view dinosaurs.
The AI Crisis
Squirrels eventually developed advanced quantum computing. They created super AI droids to manage their society. However, these droids consumed vast amounts of energy that fusion could not sustain, forcing the squirrels to resume burning fossil fuels (specifically those containing human carbon).
Extinction Event
The squirrel civilization became entirely dependent on their advanced automated systems. When a massive solar flare occurred, it wiped out all of the AI droids. Lacking the knowledge to repair the technology they had created, the entire squirrel population died out.
