I'm a young Italian noble in the late 14th century. I'm interested in becoming a better fencer and I've heard of this fencing instructor Fiore dei Liberi. How would I get instruction? Does the master own a school? Do I pay for private lessons in person? What do my fellow students look like?

In 1858 California passed a series of laws that made life (even) harder for African-Americans. Some of them decided to migrate, ending up on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada. What was that journey like? How did they end up in California in the first place?

Could a jetliner like the Boeing 737 be retrofitted for remote-piloting in the same way that the military use drones? Would there be any disadvantages?

I'm an African American who recently arrived at Salt Spring Island in British Columbia to escape discriminatory laws that were passed in California around 1858. How did I get here? Do I have a profession? Am I a free black or a former slave? What do the following 10 years look like for me?
