Scenarios about 'cultural evolution'
Cultural evolution refers to the process by which cultural traits, ideas, behaviors, and technologies change and develop over time within and across human societies. This concept encompasses how cultural information is transmitted through learning, imitation, and innovation, often adapting to environmental conditions and social contexts. Understanding cultural evolution is essential for exploring alternate histories where different cultural developments might have led to dramatically different societal structures, technological trajectories, or belief systems.
