Why do I see in re-enactments they always have this exceptionally ornate and detailed helmet?
There was only one found and it was specially made for King Rædwald, it was a crown not a helmet.
Anglo Saxons where not wearing these.

I guess because it looks cool as fuck so everyone wants to wear one.

Because it looks cool and that's what 90% of reenactors care about.
The group you posted looks like Wulfhodenas. They're specifically portraying high status warriors.

If Jesus' depiction as long-haired and -bearded is based on Greek expectations of how philosophers and teachers should look, why don't statues of Greek philsophers have long hair?

Why have these countries failed to unite?
Many of the countries have been united in unions before multiple times in various forms, but they never lasted. Even today there is a somwhat small group which aims for unification of the countries.
So why have they failed to unite?

Who would be the leader in a union of those countries? Where would the capital be? Also, don't forget that Finland was a part of Sweden for a long time and probably wouldn't want to be tied to them again.
>>
Because Sweden is as large as 2 of the rest 3 combined. And everybody agrees Sweden is ass while not having any animosity towards each other.
>>
>>3181750
All of them hate Sweden. Sweden left the union first, then broke the union and stole Norway. Finland got spat out of Sweden and most likely doesn't want to unite with it again.

They needed resources with which to feed their expanding industry and saw colonialism as something that would give them more prestige in the international community after they westernized.
>>
>>3181304
They saw everyone else doing the same thing and thought ''hey, wouldn't this be fun!''
Then everyone else reee'd because they weren't white.
>>
>>3181304
They needed resources to continue industrialization and international trade wasn't mature enough yet. Also they just tend to try to kill everyone else on earth every 100 years or so.

Why did Pan-Slavism fail? Czechslovakia divided, Yugoslavia disintegrated completely, with even Serbia and Montenegro disunited, and attempts at union between Belarus and Russian Federation have been reversed.
Did a history of communism in these areas have something to do with it? I can't see decades of communism being good for pan-nationalist feelings. Are these ideas simply flawed and impossible from the start regardless of government type?

Yes.

Because Slavs are a meme. There are parallels to the situation in the US: although they share the same religion and language and have similar cultural background, whites and blacks turn at each other in disdain at any given opportunity. They were alienated from their true cultural and ethnic background, and what it's being replaced with is a joke.
When France conquered Germany and Germany conquered Slavs and Balts, their situation was actually improving. But living in Slavic countries ruled by literally crazy autocrats? Hell on earth.

Why is he so revered in modern Japanese society? And why others samurais and/or Ronin like him are not on the same level of reverence as him despite some of them having actually participate in battles and are important retainers to their lords.

In my opinion the greatest duelist in Japanese history.

Because he won.
Then he wrote a book about him winning.
