Here's a fantasy for you. Each of us has our own idea of what the perfect world (for living mortals) would be like. What would yours be like?
For me; an earth-like planet which lacks metals and the ingredients for producing gun powder. A world in a perpetual state of stone age life for people. People would live in clans (which are family units) and the gathering of clans is basically a family reunion - the tribe. Of course, there are other tribes about. Human population would never reach any extreme numbers. Wildlife is always plentiful.
I would live during one of the warm periods (between ice ages). Our hunting tools (weapons) are all of wood and stone. Dogs are the only domesticated animal. All people are hunters, fishers, and food gatherers. We hunt and kill no more than is needed. Life is good.
