So given the popularity of "shipwreck/lost colony" tales has anybody
ever put together an actual instruction manual of how to build a modern
technological society? What are the actual steps needed?

Step one: Find some flint; this lets you start fires and make flint
tools/weapons. (Instructions on what flint looks like, how to start a
fire, how to knap flint)

What works best is business and trade. Breweries and spice were
historically of import.



Step three.. profit!



No, no. Step one: Crush your enemies. Step two: See them driven before you. Step three: Hear the lamentation of their women.
