Quoted By:
My wife grew up in the third world surrounded by jungle. They went hard on "primitive survival" crafting and forts. Made their own dolls out of grass and twigs and mud type stuff. Ran around pretty much feral half the day. Biggest family around, they could more or less bully the other kids by sheer numbers, as could their semi feral family dog pack that would occasionally hunt down and murder other dogs (before getting sold to the butcher themselves kek).
They had marbles and anime trading cards. Apparently rubber bands were the primary currency (?).
After midnight on full moons the whole village would wake and the kids would run around playing hide and seek and tag and CTF and cops n robbers in the dark jungle and among the farms without any electric lighting (paraffin until the late 90s). Apparently the tales of medieval euros having split sleeping schedules with midnight being a wakeful time aren't wrong.
>Americans thought they could beat these people on their home ground
It was the children's favorite game to play VC at night lol.
