Planes, trains, automobiles, and the internet have changed society forever. Imagine if the printing press, use of horses for transport, and boats were all "invented" within a century or so. Society would evolve incredibly quickly.

In most ways the 18th century is closer to ancient times than it is to today

Who has been more detrimental for European civilization: the eternal Anglo or the eternal Kraut?

In terms of damage caused, easily the Anglo.

In terms of potential, we will never know, as the Anglo tends to attack the Kraut as much as anyone else.

Could a nation exist with just a bureaucracy alone with no democracy or a king or despot?
12 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
It's be a pain in the ass.

Legitimization is a key aspect of a government. Mesopotamians did it by building temples and stellae, democracies do it by holding elections.

Without a monarchy, a theocracy, or a democracy to provide legitimacy to the power structure, there would be a substantial risk of instability.

And without elections to provide some accountability for abuse of power, the government would likely become less and less interested in the rule of law over time.
>>
>>2663841

NO.

A BUREAUCRATIC GOVERNMENT IS A GOVERNMENT IN DECAY, AND A DISINTEGRATING NATION, THUS, A GOVERNMENT THAT IS A PURE BUREAUCRACY, NECESSARILY ENTAILS A VIRTUALLY NONEXISTENT NATION.

I don't think it can, because capitalism requires fiat curreny

>>2663749
Depends on what you mean by state. It can't exist without some sort of power structure, to enforce sanctity of private property. It also depends on your definitions of capitalism.

>>2663902
It really doesn't, though. Capitalism existed long before fiat currencies.

>I have no idea what I'm talking about, the post.

YOu do realize that bench trials are a thing? Are in fact quite common in civil trials, which are enormously more common than criminal trials? And that even before you get to trial, you have an enormously long and complicated pre-trial setup about what you can and can't bring in trial? Don't let TV fool you, those motions are where the battle is won or lost, 99.9% of all trials are foregone conclusions.

Probably. Gommunism collapsed in Russia largely because of the mis-steps of Gorbachev, it's perfectly possible for Germany (or Russia) to have remained a dictatorship down to the modern day.

they weren't fascist, they were National Socialists.

Almost as bad as calling all radically left-wing governments "gommunis"

How did the Romans view the Egyptians? I'm talking about Egypt in both the ancient period (preceding Rome) and Egypt under Rome. Did they look up to them like people of the Middle Ages looked up to the Romans? How were they treated in the empire? I know Aegyptus was one of their richest provinces but were there e.g. any high ranking Romano-Egyptian officials?

idk much about this but i do know the romans kept the system the greeks had going on before them for citizenship so a native egyptian was treated harsher than a greek egyptian
they also had their vision of egypt completely molded by the greeks so
they did see them as an amazing ancient civilization of course
>>
Greeks saw Egypt as a mysterious land full of sages. This is why of many Greek philosophers we have legends about they visiting and learning in Egypt.

I don't know what the Romans thought of ancient Egypt. About the Roman province of Aegyptus, though, we know it was considered as source of food.
>>
>>2663534
They considered Egyptians to be effeminate homo sissies

They were utterly shocked at just how soft and prissy Egyptians were

How was Matthew a tax collector when his own Gospel clearly shows he couldn't count?

>12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
>13 And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
>14 And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
>15 And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
>16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
>17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.

That's actually 13, but ok.
