>by giving the RSFSR such small area under the Soviet Union?
you have a really fucking funny concept of small

>>3228097
>They could have drawn the internal borders so that all ethnic Russian areas would be theirs
they did

borders of RSFSR indicated areas populated by russians

at that time

>>3228097
>>3228117
Also to follow up on this, I'm just going to throw in that borders of Russian soviet republic hardly reflected areas populated by hulking majority of ethnic Russians. Russia itself has quite a few sizeable ethnic groups with their own republics (Komi, Buryatia, Udmutria, Dagestan, etc), most of them established under Soviets in 20's and 30's

They drank it diluted in a lot of water, retard

>>3228050

No, they drank water with alcohol, not alcohol diluted in water.

In rome they always mixed wine with water

>What happens /his/
Operation "Unthinkable" had a really fitting name. There was no way for this operation to succeed. There were millions of Soviets soldiers in Europe and the USSR had superiority both in manpower and vehicles. The Red Army had more tanks than the Americans and the British combined. Don't forget the fact that the French communist party would also help the USSR by sabotaging allied infrastructure in France.
The only real advantage the allies had were american nukes. However, the bombs would have to be transported by plane to their target and the USSR had total air superiority in Eastern Europe.

That's not Winfield Scott. That's the guy who had the Army of Northern Virginia's nuts in a vise at Antietam and didn't crush them utterly.

t. edgelord 12 year old who read his first civil war history book and decided to be contrarian.

He could have ended the war before it dissolved into a bloody slaughter, but didn't, because he was a fucking coward.

Excellent organizer though, his army he built won the war.

>the planet is overpopulated
XDD STFU FAGGOT OVERPOPULATION IS DEBUNKED!!

I've always thought that the reason Zombies are popular is the same reason Nazi's are popular as bad guys- it's a villain you can unleash the most brutal, violent urges you have in a guilt-free way. People like feeling righteous indignation, the feeling that you are completely justified to use violence, and zombies and Nazi's fulfill this as bad guys who are totally morally reprehensible. The same reason why ideologies like Communism and Fascism are so appealing, because it paints it's adherents as crusaders in a holy war against a despicable evil.

Zombies are even better than Nazi's though, because we don't even rank them as human. For example, chainsaws and other melee weapons are so e of the most popular weapons to use against zombies in media, because they are so ultra gory, but even when used against Nazi's, the sheer brutality of them against a living, breathing human who was once a child can turn people off.

How are you defining "good" "okay" and "bad" in regard to monarch performance? Are you two even using the same set of definitions?

>>3226626
hi mister, can u tel me were my fren charles is?

>>3226629
I'm saying "okay" as in average performance, he's saying "bad" as in shitty performance.

>>3226279
Probably not. You're talking about starting WW3 on the ashes of WW2 against an even larger economy. While it's probably ultimately doable, the cost in both blood and treasure would be fucking colossal.

Would it have been worth it to drive the capitalists out of Germany and Europe after the liberation of Berlin?

>>3226294
yeah

I know I sound like a conspiratard, but I want to know if it's worth my time digging into this. So tell me if it's bullshit.

Dig into the Business Plot. Do it before /pol/ delets all the evidence.

Anti racketing laws

>>3225871
Without prohibition, it was much harder to tap into a market that was simultaneously illegal (meaning that you could have people susceptible to their extortion rackets who couldn't just go to the police), profitable (So they could pay out) and considered a harmless vice (limiting the willingness of people to crack down on them and cut into their own booze supplies). The decline in prohibition led almost inevitably to the decline in the mafia's revenues, and then in turn to the decline of their power.

I imagine if you pitted 100 soldiers from the Civil War against 100 modern US Army infantry in hand-to-hand combat (i.e. no shooting, bayonets only), the Civil War infantrymen could overpower their modern counterparts because they had more experiences in actually fighting hand-to-hand (as opposed to just training for it), were trained to fight together as a cohesive formation, and their weapons were designed with it in mind, whereas the modern infantryman's rifle is design with use in hand-to-hand as an afterthought.

>>3225709
Probably would have had higher test, also,

>>3225522
Yes. People back then were skinny little Manlets. Soldiers nowadays train better. And actually want to fight unlike those poor bastards who were forced to. A modern marine could easily take out 10 soldiers from the civil warr

I agree, I unsubscribed from his media.

he can't stop talking about how barbarians are better than romans, mongols better that caucasians, russians better than germans, etc. it's fucking tiring.

America was a mistake.
