A set of $30 walkie talkies and a value pack of AAA batteries delivered to either the South or North could have ended that war in a few weeks.

Cheaper and more common items get bonus points.

Some footage of BLM riots would have had the south sinking every slave ship that came close to America.

Slavery wouldn’t have been an issue and the civil war may not have been fought.

Also, no mumble rap

Any college science or engineering textbook from today dropped into the hands of 18th century scientists.
