* TheSocialDarwinist: In both the ''Tarzan'' series and his lesser-known sci fi ''Venus'' series Burroughs depicted what we might call "eugenics utopias", societies that strictly regulated heredity. This ranged from rewarding "fit" births, forced sterilization and even ''killing'' people deemed unfit. In the ''Tarzan'' example, this has gone on for over 2,000 years, with the result that no crime exists. Burroughs firmly believed that all criminal behavior was caused by hereditary traits, and strongly supported eugenics, writing a nonfiction essay called "I See A New Race" which made clear this [[AuthorTract reflected his own views]].

* LostWorld: In ''Beyond Thirty'', a.k.a. ''The Lost Continent'', a group of shipwrecked American mariners in the 22nd century explore the savage lost continent of Europe. In this future history (the story was published in 1915), World War I never ended because eventually no organized government was left to make peace. The United States never entered the war, and in fact made laws forbidding any ship to cross certain lines of longitude (hence the original title).

* MamasBabyPapasMaybe: In ''Beyond Thirty'', a savage tribe is advanced enough to recognize paternity, but matrilineal because of this trope, and not being advanced enough to pull off any monogamous marriages.
* MilitaryMashupMachine: The protagonist of ''Beyond Thirty'' (alternate title ''The Lost Continent'') is the captain of a Pan-American Navy "aero-sub" -- a submarine capable of AntiGravity flight. Sadly, he doesn't have his vessel throughout most of the story, having been thrown overboard by a mutineer in the first chapter.
