You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to wonder if there is life on other planets. In fact when you consider that every star could potentially harbor an Earth-like planet, the idea of finding another life breeding Earth is not a matter of if, but a matter of when. Finding this Earth-like planet is definitely a long shot when you consider how far these planets are from us, but how exciting would it be to hear on the news when scientist confirm traces of intelligent life on another planet?

Let’s theorize a scenario.

What happens when we do find Earth-like planet that is freshly developed? Imagine if this planet has people that look exactly like us, but are still in their undeveloped primitive days. Now imagine how it would be like for those onboard the space craft that just traveled years across space to land on such a planet. As the team from Earth exits the space craft, they will most like be surrounded by people that are extremely curious as to who they are, and why we have come. Since this planet is undeveloped, the team from Earth will promptly begin their process of gathering resources in order to build their foundation on this new planet.

While the people of Earth get busy making everything from scratch, some of the primitive people will become very interested in what the Earth people are doing. Many primitive people will follow and closely examine the methods used by the people of Earth to see how they work. The most interested of these primitive people will be willing to offer their labor free in return to learn firsthand how to not only build tools, but also how to use them. Only a small few of these primitive people will be observant enough to closely understand and even document what exactly these people from Earth are doing.

As the Earth made establishment begins to grow into something that is much greater than any primitive person has ever seen, it will gain the interest of many primitive people to gather from further distances. As more people line up to help, the establishment that is being built soon becomes a city. Note that at this time everybody is working for free in order to create a new place they can all call home. Considering the Earth people will be using their power of persuasion to convince people to work, it might seem as though the Earth people have enslaved the primitive people right from the start. Since the primitive people don’t know any better, the idea of slaver has not yet even been considered on this new planet. It will however pave the way for slavery to begin.

Since at some point the people from Earth will have to pass on their legacy (and possibly their genetics if they can breed with the primitive people), only those who connect personally with the Earth people will become the most privileged. The people of Earth will leave all of their science and scriptures with only the most favored and intelligent of the primitive people. With that information, a small group of primitive people will quickly advance into an educated group of individuals that will then have the rest of their planet at their mercy.

At first everything will go smoothly considering the planet is still inhabited by mostly primitive people, but as time goes on that will change. Despite all efforts of the advanced group to hide the knowledge given to them by the people of Earth, the primitive people will eventually get their hands on scriptures and share the intelligence amongst one another. Once the primitive people find that the advanced group has been holding out on them, a large mix of emotions that may have not yet existed will begin come into play. This is also where a great deal of corruption and hate will begin.

Considering the advanced group will have so much more already established in their favor, through force, the advanced group will do all they can to silence those who dare try to bring down their empire. As time goes on and the population begins to grow, other groups will form and eventually take over the original establishment. From there nations will begin to develop, and for centuries they will fight to conquer one another for land and valuable resources.

As this story progresses doesn’t it begin to remind you of what kind of happened here with Earth? If you go backwards in Earth’s history, it points to there being an influence of knowledge that has always empowered a small percentage of the population. From there this small percentage of the population has done all it can to maintain its power. It is as if those people know something that they don’t want the rest of us to know. So how did they get that information? That is a conclusion I will leave up to your imagination.
