* ArtisticLicenseReligion: The first universe shows what the world would look like if Christianity never existed, in which the [[DarkAgeEurope Dark Ages]] never happened and science was able to progress by 1000 years compared to us. However, the Dark Ages weren't caused by Christianity being imposed on other cultures, but rather the fall of UsefulNotes/TheRomanEmpire. Not to mention Christian monks preserving knowledge is the reason why a lot of information was not lost after Western Rome's fall, and while the Catholic Church stifled some advancements (an obvious example being the Inquisition), it also facilitated them, especially in the Renaissance. Furthermore, the non-existence of Christianity would also have implications for the existence of Islam, and Islamic scholars themselves were responsible for numerous advancements in science and math in the Middle to Renaissance ages. The Crusades were also a big influence on the Age of Discovery, so it's doubtful the Americas would have been colonized just the same. Overall, the absence of Christianity would be such a major change that the world would look completely unfamiliar, much less a futuristic utopia by our standards.

* ArtisticLicenceHistory:
** In the Japanese universe, the Griffins live in a Japanese-style house. In real life, Japan had Westernized during the Meiji Restoration (though Japanese-style houses can be found in some parts of Japan, albeit not as widespread as what's depicted in the media, both Western and Japanese).
** Stewie mentions that "Japan never quit" WWII because America never dropped the nuke. In reality, other factors like ''the Soviets'' invading Manchuria also contributed to Japanese surrender, and the allies were not about to let Imperial Japan go unpunished with or without a nuke. Also, there's the implication that [[JapanTakesOverTheWorld Japan took over the world]] without nukes, even though the Point of Divergence was when Japan was practically defeated and on the brink of ruin, and would be in no position to invade anyone for years.
