because women are fucking bored cooking in the kitchen and they want some thrill in their fucking,boring lives that they started to push this feminist bullshit, because muhhh equality.

>to love, honor and respect her

>>2491896
What greater honor, love and respect can there be than fucking her?

>various countries such as al-the US, UK and France have openly (even formally) declared war on the Middle East
>all have used weapons of mass destruction against various civilian targets
>each has made actual biological or nuclear weapons and United States is considered to already possess 'neutron bombs'
>wmd threat is real and credible: "nuclear war is the single most important national security threat that we face. one nuclear weapon exploded in a city - be it New York or Moscow, Tokyo or Beijing, London or Paris - could kill hundreds of thousands of people, and it would destabilize our security, our economies, and our very way of life." - President Eisenhower
>Alt-Right demands tolerance

Probably a noble/monarchical thing. You know, keeping it in the family.

Something like Child Harold (fiction character made by Byron)

Cousin marriage was so common in almost all societies as to be literally unremarkable. It's really only in the last 50 years maybe where it's become taboo. In the West, at least. Surely someone has the map that shows in the Middle East and Indian subcontinent it's still common today.

Cousin marriage is not even really that bad genetically, especially if it's just once off. If you do it for a long time in a small community, then freaky genetic disease most certainly will become more common. That's bad. The benefit is that you keep wealth/property in the family.

I have a friend whose parents are cousins. This is in Germany, they married in the early 80s. They grew up in different smallish towns not too far from each other, but both families were also good friends, and it just kinda happened. No one cared. He has one grandmother who also the product of cousin marriage.

>vast glorious kingdoms/empires that has fallen into shit of walking husks
Iran, India or Indo-Iranian places in general

it even fits with the whole "fire allegory" since they used to have a big thing for that and need to rekindle that bonfire or bring forth a "Age of Dark", or do neither

hell, Indians/Afghans might aswell be hollows

africa.

Also probably shit like Atlantis or Hyperborea.

Pretty much anything from before 500 BC could be consider the "Mythical" era, since details are scares and legends are aplenty.

Ancient mythologies could also be compared to DaS, as the Gods and creation mythos play a large part in the lore.

Why do people make these pseudo intellectual posts?

>>2491553
I think the trolls want this board deleted. Which would be a pretty good thing considering the board has a hard time staying on topic.

>The market seems kinda cornered already.

Really? Because besides the great war I can't think of a single decent history channel. I mean, there's a lot of shitty history yt channels, like crash course, but the good history yt channel isn't cornered.

You could do most things extrahistory and epic history tv have done in their shows on windows movie maker or if you want to be more professional, get [spoiler]pirate[/spoiler] sony vegas pro.

>>2491866
This
I am not aware of any decent history channels

just center around Crusades and you will be swimming in /pol/scribers

>>2491313
French pilots were much better for sure but I doubt that was the reason behind it.

>>2491313
>Was that because there were defined sectors even for planes and Manfred was operating in a British one,

Certainly this one. You think they just wandered wherever they felt like?

>>2491313
>Was that because there were defined sectors even for planes and Manfred was operating in a British one

This obviously. Please stop baiting /int/ tier responses

>Be frog
>Have revolution against unelected monarch who holds all power
>10 years later, have an unelected monarch who holds all power

It's really sad to watch them squirm in trying to claim Napoleon was defending the revolution.

It was always ok. Being a slave to popular opinion isn't.

Case points:

Industrial revolution

It never did.

This. Never let a stemlord anywhere near non metaphysical philosophy

Mathematics IS a form of language, albeit accepted and unchanged in most of the world.
If we choose to represent the number 2 as "XE" in one country, and as "JH" in another, then mathematics would have the same language problems.
For reference, look at bullshit like X * Y / Z + N making people interpret it differently due to the rules being taught differently in different countries.

He would've won if he only waited a bit more

>>2491124
Possibly.

Although, as I understand it, the supposed fatigue of the Anglo-Saxon army was not as deleterious as the death of Harold Godwinson himself. Up until that point, the English were holding their ground quite well and might have been able to grind the Normans to a stalemate or even eke out a victory. Once word of the King's death had spread through the ranks, however, the shield wall collapsed entirely as the fyrd fled and the huscarls who held their ground were surrounded and finally overrun.

I'm sure it could be argued that the English might have held after Godwinson's death had they not just come from Stamford Bridge, though. I don't think anyone can know for sure whether Harold's death was the deciding factor or merely hastened the inevitable.

Alternatively, what if William had died? He allegedly had multiple horses killed from underneath him during the course of the battle, so one can assume he was close to the front.

>>2491124
yes, the battle was close anyway, if the anglo-saxon army had been a little fresher, and a little larger, both almost certainly the case if it hadnt just fought another major battle and then force marched to hastings, it would probably have stood, it certainly managed to stand off several norman charges during the course of the battle
