Bronze Age collapse. Likely a combination of the same climatic changes that hit the civilizations to the West so hard fucking with agriculture and the collapse of trade routes wrecking their economy. For all the memes of the indo-Aryans coming in and killing them off, the Harappan civilization was already pretty much dead by the time they came along.

To get an idea of how important Bronze-Age trade was, look at the locations of tin and copper sources in this map. International trade was invaluable to the survival of many of these Bronze-age civilizations, the Harappans included.

The collapse of the Russian Empire was a weird time, but one of my favourite oddities was the Brits arming the remnants of the Finnish Red Guard in East Karelia in order to fight the incursions of Finnish pan-nationalists from adding East Karelia to Finland, with the thought of protecting it for the Russian Whites.

>Josef Hofer and his two brothers were South Dakota Hutterites whose faith forbade any involvement in war, including wearing a military uniform. They were arrested in March 1918, and a week after the armistice they were sent to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Arriving at the military prison around midnight, they stood naked for hours in a 17-degree November night. Then they were suspended naked from the bars of their cells, their feet barely touching the ground, refusing to wear the uniforms left in their cells. Fed only bread and water, after two weeks David Hofer was allowed to telegraph to Josef’s wife, telling her that her husband was dying. He died the morning after she arrived. Prison guards mocked his corpse by dressing it in a uniform.

>The African Americans from around the nation who joined New York’s 15th National Guard Regiment, the Harlem Hellfighters, included Leroy Johnston from Phillips County, Arkansas. He spent nine months in French hospitals recuperating from wounds suffered in the Meuse-Argonne, then in 1919 returned to an Arkansas seething with fears of an African-American insurrection because a returning African-American veteran had formed a union of black sharecroppers. The narrator of The Great War says that as groups of white men “roamed the countryside, killing hundreds of black people, a train pulled into the station. A crowd rushed aboard and dragged out four unsuspecting black men. They were Leroy Johnston and his three brothers.” After a melee, “the mob shot the Johnston brothers to pieces.”

Because Serbs need self promotion, and it's easy to pitch an underdog genius that got screwed over by his employers and was probably not completely sane to austists on the internet.
>>
>>2645767
It's projection. They like to see themselves as struggling artists or geniuses who would be famous and successful if not for jerks like Edison keeping them down. What they don't understand, however, is that Edison was actually alpha as fuck and Tesla was a beta pushover. It doesn't matter how intelligent or skilled you are if you can't promote yourself. Edison knew this and took full advantage of it. Tesla believed that if he took the blows life gave him that he would eventually be rewarded for his struggles with success and fame. Edison knew that success and fame isn't something that can be given to you; that you have to grasp it yourself and there's only so much to go around.

So yeah that's why they hate him.

The Bonnot Gang originally consisted of a group of French anarchists centered around the individualist anarchist magazine l'Anarchie. The group was founded by Octave Garnier, Raymond Callemin, and René Valet. It was Garnier's idea to use automobiles in the service of a daring criminal act. Jules Bonnot joined them in December 1911.

The gang's political and social perspective was heavily influenced by Mikhail Bakunin and Pierre-Joseph Proudhon as well as Max Stirner, Ludwig Büchner, and Friedrich Nietzsche. Bonnot's ideas were more part with late anarchist Ravachol.

Born in Fontainebleau, Seine-et-Marne on Christmas Day 1889, Garnier worked as a butcher and baker at an early age. He took up theft at the age of thirteen and had served his first prison term by age seventeen. Garnier later wrote, "prison had made me even more rebellious."

Following his release from prison, Garnier dabbled in, and then became disillusioned with, both union syndicalism and revolutionary politics before turning to anarchism.

Following two additional stints in prison (one for assault), Garnier fled to Belgium in 1910 to avoid France's military draft. Abroad, he learned the art of burglary and counterfeiting from anarchist associates. In April 1911, Garnier and his partner Marie Vuillemin moved to Romainville to live with future gang members Raymond Callemin, Jean De Boe, and Edouard Carouy as well as Victor Kibalchich, then editor of l'Anarchie. Within this group, Garnier's political sympathies grew rapidly towards illegalism, a radical form of individualist anarchism that was heavily influenced by German philosopher Max Stirner.

Following an ideological split within l'Anarchie, Garnier and Vuillemin moved to Paris and he began work as a navvy, participating in strikes at Chars, Marin, and Cergy. Working as a burglar on the side to make ends meet, he was unhappy with his lot and dreamed of bigger heists. It was at this point that Garnier, in consultation with Callemin, began to plan the activities of an anarchist gang – a group that would be known in the press as first, "The Auto Bandits", and later, "The Bonnot Gang".

Étienne Monier was born in a family of winegrowers in Estagel, in Pyrénées-Orientales, a small town with a strong anarchist tradition since the local population resisted to Napoléon III taking power in 1851.Monier started by learning to become a gardener and a florist, before deciding to move to Paris in 1909. At the end of 1910, he refuses to go for military service and is forced to flee abroad. To be able to come back in France, he then uses the papers of an anarchist friend, Samuelis Simentoff, born in 1887 in Turkey. Back in Paris, he meets Victor Serge and Rirette Maitrejean and, later, Jules Bonnot, leading him to become a member of the Bonnot Gang.

Étienne Monier then worked some time in Antoine Gauzy's shop in Ivry-sur-Seine. Gauzy gave shelter to Bonnot later, sent by Monier and not knowing clearly his real identity. When the police came to Gauzy's shop on 24 April 1912, Bonnot killed Louis Jouin, the vice-chief of the French police, and escaped. On that same day, Monier was arrested in Belleville, in Paris.

Just to clarify, you are talking about swords that were made after the intrduction of the basket hilt, correct?

Well, obviously any form of closed guard is impractical on a two-handed weapon such as a long sword. It's extra weight and bulk which may or may not be worth the extra protection. It's also undesirable for cavalry who may have to swap weapons quickly.
