Ah yes, the """"Auld"""" alliance lmao. What a glorious frien-

>The Battle of Verneuil was a strategically important battle of the Hundred Years' War, fought on 17 August 1424 near Verneuil in Normandy and a significant English victory. It was a particularly bloody battle, described by the English as a second Agincourt. Altogether some 7262 French and allied troops were killed, including 4000 Scots. English losses were 1600, including two men-at-arms and "a very few archers".[2] The Scots army, led by Archibald, Earl of Douglas and John Stewart, Earl of Buchan (both of whom were killed), was almost destroyed. Many French noblemen were taken prisoner; among them the Duke of Alençon, Pierre, the bastard of Alençon, and Marshal de La Fayette. After Verneuil, the English were able to consolidate their position in Normandy. The Army of Scotland as a distinct unit ceased to play a significant part in the Hundred Years' War, although many Scots continued to serve in France.

Are wars between great powers simply inevitable? Neither Rome, nor Carthage, had any great hatred for the other. In fact, they had a long and mutually beneficial trading relationship. At one point, there was even an agreement between the two cities where merchants from one city would have the rights of citizens while operating in the other city. There was even an incident where, upon triumphing in a local war, the city of Rome received a golden crown as a gift from Carthage, which the Romans adored so much that they had in displayed in the Temple of Jupiter, their most holy temple. And to hammer in the point just a bit more, Carthage even sent soldiers to Italy to defend Rome during the Pyrrhic War.

All of this only changed when Rome became so powerful that Carthage began to see Rome as a threat to its own power.

>Until I was eleven or twelve, I didn't realize there was a second set of labia on the inside, since you couldn't see them. What's even funnier is that I thought urine came out of the clitoris…When you're standing up, all you see from the front is hair. Between your legs there are two soft, cushiony things, also covered with hair, which press together when you're standing, so you can't see what's inside. They separate when you sit down and they're very red and quite fleshy on the inside. In the upper part, between the outer labia, there's a fold of skin that, on second thought, looks like a kind of blister. That's the clitoris.

Someone needs to change this. Because this is pure bullshit. Jesus was not a "Jew". He was from the Tribe of Judah. Which was from the Tribe of Jacob. This wiki is pure bs. Also, it is WAY too obvious at this point, that the "Jews" were doing the exact same thing to Rome as they are today to America and the Commonwealth.

>The split of early Christianity and Judaism took place during the first centuries AD. It is commonly attributed to a number of events, including the rejection and crucifixion of Jesus (c. 33), the Council of Jerusalem (c. 50), the destruction of the Second Temple and institution of the Jewish tax in 70, the postulated, and largely discredited, Council of Jamniac. 90, and the Bar Kokhba revolt of 132–135.

>The financial crisis under Caligula (37–41) has been proposed as the "first open break between Rome and the Jews", even though problems were already evident during the Census of Quirinius in 6 and under Sejanus (before 31).[5]

Laconophile here, does anyone have any information on what happened in the city of Sparta following the Roman conquest? How long did their ancient traditions last if they did last beyond the conquest, and is there any specific information of Spartans serving in the Roman legions?
