There was a poodle walking the old Roman wall in Ljubljana, and it reminded me of a story; I can't remember when in history, when the Chinese court (here represented by the poodle, a Chinese hunting dog), having heard of Rome's glory sent a delegation.

They travelled for a long time, but not far from the Roman borders, they were deceived by locals into believing that Rome was still three months journey further, and thus dissuaded, they returned without making contact.

I suppose we'd still be in the Pax Romana if the Romans had acquired gunpowder and secured world domination.
