huh that's interesting and I'm not the fascist type

Majority of Americans consider Jews to be white so they feel no need to differentiate between them

>>2800737
All this proves is that there were at least fifteen ships owned by Jewish people that carried slaves. That doesn't change the fact that there was a thriving slave market in the US & Caribbean for centuries, and that slavery was the cornerstone of the South's economy until the Civil War.

Didn't read the previous thread, but the question is dumb. It is a social construct, but it is obviously rooted in the biological phenomenon of sexes.

>Those material associations are a direct product of gender structures, they're the manifestation of it.

Yes, but a community will have a unique approach to manifesting gender based on what is available to them in their environment. Clothing will not be the same across cultures but gender structures seem to be. Why are you having trouble separating gender itself and its material iteration

>Males and females are distinct biologically, and those differences shaped our culture and dictated different behaviours for males and females, that after thousands of years ended up becoming our current version of male and female bevahiour. Founded in a biological basis but ultimately dictated by our subsequent culture

I can meet you by saying gender is PROPAGATED by culture/society, but in no way is that 1) bad or 2) signifying it need to be or CAN be removed from human nature.

By modern standards, Nixon was one of the more liberal presidents we've had.

I'd say Ike was better though.

you cant just build walls to protect from foreign invaders, thats pretty racist

because the water table was too high to build the massive underground fortifications seen in the maginot line

why do you think they call it the low countries, there's water everywhere

Belgium complained about it and took it as a hostility for them so they didn't. The French didn't argue with it because they assumed the German tanks wouldn't be able pass through the Argonne forest.

What France should have done was financed a better eastern Belgium border supplied with the best french weapons.

not really

Putin has literally accomplished jackshit though, Russia is still poor and corrupt

>>2799714
Yes

Islam

>>2799697
Because iconoclasts thought that icons were graven images. It was a matter of whether or not the use of icons was sinful. In the Latin Church, Egypt, Armenia, etc. this controversy never really happened and so they have much fewer rules governing use of icons than Byzantines.

>>2799697
>Theological reasons:
Because their religious texts forbid worshiping other deities / spirits / etc and certain iconographic practices can be considered to do this.

><contextual reasons:
-influence from Islam
-general political and economic uproar and decline in the empire from the 7th to 9th century caused upheaval, which spilled over in religious conflict

All right, let's do this.

First choice anons, difficulty.

We have 4 separate categories we can choose from, which make the game harder or easier, dpeending on which of 3 choices we make.

The first category, ancestors, has
>Creators, recommended for beginners, +30% production
>Warriors +10% soldier growth, +1 score
>Scholars (Historical) +2 score, -10% culture.

How did we get here?
>Resettlement -10% cost to workers and buildings
>Wandering (Historical) +1 score
>Survival +2 score, +10% cost to worker and buildings

Environment
>Land of Antelopes, high values to tiles
>Land of Elephants (historical), medium values to tiles, +1 point
>Poor ground, low values to tiles, +3 points.

What spirits live here

>Good spirits. Good events happen more frequently than bad ones, enemies 20% weaker
>Neutral spirits. Random events balanced +1 point
>Bad spirits. Bad events happen more frequently than good ones. +3 points.

Points do nothing except let you feel good about how hard of a game you won. Other resources will directly help you win.

Oh, and what do we want to call ourselves?

>Scholars (Historical) +2 score, -10% culture.
>Wandering (Historical) +1 score
>Land of Elephants (historical), medium values to tiles, +1 point
>Neutral spirits. Random events balanced +1 point

The main reason we don't have a board-tan is because we don't have any drawfags that stick around long enough to get a consensus due to how slow the board is.

Here he is again, from a different angle.

Probably BBC racial quotas.

I don't see a single Roman in that image OP. Kind of strange for a series named ROME.

>>2799335
Mongols are to Turks what Greeks were to Romans. It's no suprise that they associate themselves with another party that have a shared culture.

>>2799353

Turkic people were relevant outside Mongolia before Mongols were though.

>>2799378
Yes, but those great men you talked about existed in a post-Mongol world. The majority of the army of the Mongol Empire for example was made up of Turks and Turkic rulers like Timur and Nader Shah stylized themselves after the great Khan.

Robert Nivelle for the Nivelle Offensive which almost cost France WW1 is a good runner up.

But Enver Pasha is the undisputable worst of all time. No person has ever destroyed their own armies so quickly and thoroughly as that man.

>>2799126

He's top 5 for sure

>modernizes army, makes France military power
>proceeds to send his tanks all over France
>"this forest surely will be an impassable barrier"
>builds Maginot line, leaves it undefended
>literally knew the exact date the Germans would invade, "nuh muh Dyle Plan, send EVERYONE to fucking Belgium"
>Battle of Belgium complete rout, Dutch surrender immediately
>French in fucking disarray, strung out across Europe

how can one man make this many fucking mistakes, he's pretty much singlehandedly responsible for the defeat of France in WW2

>has the fucking bare faced cheek to call his postwar memoir "Servir..."

fuck you OP I'm triggered now

None of the WW1 guys, as boobs as they might have been, are a patch on William George Keith Elphinstone.

>tl;dr
>British occupying Kabul as part of Great Game shenanigans
>Upsetting the locals
>Feel a need to fort up.
>For some reason, split up your water sources, your ammunition stores, and your men.
>Quickly find yourself in an untenable position because you can't safely get your men to your water and ammo because you were a dumbass beforehand.
>Find yourself forced out of Kabul
>Decide to march over the mountains back to India in the middle of the winter while getting shot at by tribesmen.
>Of your initial 16,000 people, about 2,000 go back to Kabul to be sold into slavery, about 21 actually make it back to India, and a few hundred are taken captive by the locals. Everyone else dies.

>Did a historic Abraham exist?
Most likely not.

>Does Judaism and Islam fall apart if he wasn't real?
Clearly, they haven't.

>>2798641
>Did a historic Abraham exist?

Yes. The proof are the Israelites and Ishmaelites that remain here.

Yes.

There are Egyptian and Phoenician papyrus records of a Mesopotamian priest call Abraham.
