Alistair Horne's books are great for English language readers. His book on the Paris Commune (I know it's not the Revolution but still) was ace.

I wonder if militarylulz.com is full of shitty wermacht memes.

I don't think Britain would declare war.

>Britain/France declare war on Germany

The only country that was willing to back up Czechoslovakia was the Soviet Union. And their assistance would be limited given the lack of a land border.

>>2753856
Nothing, war is entirely symbolic until Germany decide to act.

one mistaken order, the charge was actually a considerable feat of arms, successfull carrying the russian position, driving back a considerably larger russian cavalry force and generally fucking shit up.

pity it was directed against the wrong target and decimated the formation in the process, but rasher charges have been ordered deliberately as opposed to by accident, in terms of stupid it rates with Neys attack at waterloo

>>2753259
That painting is not of the charge of the light brigade.

It's 'Scotland Forever!' by Lady Butler and depicts the charge of the Scots Greys at Waterloo.

So what was Russia's war aim? Did they just want to end Ottoman control over Romania or were they going to go straight for Constantinople?

god he looks just like Mitt, or vice versa

because it doesn't deal with the adaptions of individuals but the evolution of large groups

>>2760281
But from what I understood the group doesn't "evolve" it simply adapts to the current environment.

I found this informative.

evolution (n.) Look up evolution at Dictionary.com
1620s, "an opening of what was rolled up," from Latin evolutionem (nominative evolutio) "unrolling (of a book)," noun of action from past participle stem of evolvere "to unroll" (see evolve).

Used in medicine, mathematics, and general writing in various senses including "growth to maturity and development of an individual living thing" (1660s). Modern use in biology, of species, first attested 1832 in works of Scottish geologist Charles Lyell. Charles Darwin used the word in print once only, in the closing paragraph of "The Origin of Species" (1859), and preferred descent with modification, in part because evolution already had been used in the discarded 18c. homunculus theory of embryological development (first proposed under this name by Bonnet, 1762) and in part because it carried a sense of "progress" not present in Darwin's idea. But Victorian belief in progress prevailed (and the advantages of brevity), and Herbert Spencer and other biologists after Darwin popularized evolution.

Yeah leftists are pathological liying scumbags. Too much of that "dialectic" is sure to erase every sense of truth.

He was the Obama of republicans. Didn't actually get anything done and only liked because of charisma.

>>2759396

He got plenty of done. I don't like him because he normalized irresponsible deficit spending while masquerading as a small-government libertarian, but he definitely got stuff done.

>>2759414

Pretty much this.
Of course there was a 2nd battle not long after the first one in which the French won, but it the initial victory was pretty impressive.

iir it was made a holiday by Porfirio Diaz, in what I imagine, was just a way of stroking his own ego.
