Will it give me an anime gf ?

>>2810212
Its a form of animism that has been mixed with elements of Buddhism and standardized though the japanese imperial court and later the Meiji government. As such its theology tends to be more refined than most types of animism. it centers around the worship of Kami, normally translated as "Gods" but it can really be any nexus of power. it also has a strong focus on ritual cleanliness

Wait, if I have no Knowledge of the Plague, then surely I'm not the same person. As somehone who does have knowledge of the plague, how could I possibly predict what I would do if I did not have that knowledge. I would probably panic and die, or else run like fuck.

VLAD WITH THE OPENING GOAL

Communism doesn't have any practical application in the current world, and when it did it collapsed or became capitalism in time.

Anyone who has been through any policy class can tell you it is incredibly easy to criticize policy, coming up with viable alternatives is far more difficult

>>2809669
To sum up my point, communist criticize everything endlessly because they can't do anything else

Savoyards were the original shitposters.

Why wouldn't they ?

>>2809563
Many reasons exist, but I can't answer with any certain authority on the matter beside what I know.

The one reason that comes to mind is:
>Loose formation
>Shoot one round
>Begin to reload
>Cavalry, an injun, some Hoodoo, or General Custer himself begins to charge me
>Forget about reloading and just run and drop my shit
>Enemy gains all that ground that I just retreated from

In a formation:
>We all fire at once
>Their forces fall by 5%
>Kneel
>Line behind me fires
>Their forces fall by another 5%
>Line behind THEM fires all at once
>Their forces fall by another 5%
>After all that, we're finally done loading, so we can just straight up continue shooting again until they all either rout, surrender, or die

>>2809563

The first row would shoot, then duck to reload while the line behind them fired over their heads. This is the only way they could press fire continuously considering the reload time. Order is important in carrying out military operations, if you gave a bunch of dudes guns and told them to charge it wouldn't turn out well.

>>2809563
>Another bizarre opinion is that Volley fire was supposed to offset, again, the inaccuracy of muskets. Could you explain to me how that works ? How I see it : 100 shots in one volley have the same firepower than 100 staggered shots. The only difference is, if not waiting for the order to shoot, everyone reloaded at different times, which could cause problems, I suppose, for the group to be able to maneuver as a unit.

Because again, as you've pointed out, melee combat, or the threat of melee combat, was still an important part of line battle. Sure, you want to kill enemy soldiers when you shoot, but that's not all, you want to kill them in the most efficient manner to either force them to break and run, or to set them up for a decisive follow-up, possibly in melee. To that end, killing specific sections of their army is more useful than just randomly killing people all over their formation, ideally, you want most of your firepower concentrated at a small section of their group, break that, and then flood through the gap.

But, as noted, muskets don't have great accuracy. Getting that sort of pinpoint concentration is hard to do when your formation is scattered, because they can't fire all that far and hope to hit anything, and it's hard to direct them in an era where signalling was done by flag or by shouting.

It's not about maximizing overall deaths from musket fire, it's about breaking a specific point of the enemy, which you are better served by tightly packing your men.

It's a subdivision of African culture that was carried upwards through the Sahara, into North Africa and eventually made its way to Europe. It broke off long ago and slowly transformed into its own thing, European culture.

>>2809591
Do you have examples of transitional points? I know we are talking about prehistory mostly.

>>2809614
Lots of it has been erased from history thanks to Eurocentrism, however the evidence lies in basic understandings of geography and the out of Africa theory.

It's tough to refer you to exact sources but if you do proper research you'll come to the same conclusion as I have. Good luck with your findings.

Of course not, there's no evidence of the Israelites ever being in Egypt in any major capacity.
