What happened to K-129? What happened to SSN-589 Scorpion? Is there some connection between the two disappearances? There are many interesting theories about what may have happened to the two submarines, but nobody really knows for sure what happened. On particularly interesting theory suggests that the captain of K-129 had gone rouge, and the Soviet Navy was searching for their rogue submarine when they happened to come across the USS Scorpion, which was probably draw to the area by the unusually high Soviet presence. Mistakenly believing that they'd found K-129, the Soviets deployed depth charges and sank the American submarine. K-129 had managed to slip away, but it was later destroyed by a secret self-destruct mechanism designed to prevent unauthorized missile launches. The submarine had attempted to fire nuclear missiles at Hawaii, triggering the self-destruct device. Another, more mundane theory posits that K-129 collided with Scorpion and both submarines sank as a result of damage incurred during the collision.

Militarist swine with no culture. They produced a string of autism which can be traced back linearly from Hitler to Wilhelm to Bismark to Hegel. Frederick the "great" was a homosexual autistic that tried to upstage Bach and was humiliated. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUHQ2ybTejU

Think of all the noble and dignified Germans that have graced the world: Eschenbach, Goethe, Beethoven, Schiller, Bach, Hesse, etc. It's it a tragedy that the specter of Prussianism still stalks the German consciousness? I'm glad we dealt with the P*ussian menace once and for all.

nice OP, did you like Hoskings? I read substantial excerpts of him in college, but I hope to read his book in whole some day. I liked it better than robert conquest's history of modern russia, for example.
>>
>>3134388
Nice dubs.

Yeah, I really liked it, though it was a fair bit ago; very good explanations of the rationale behind Imperial Russian policymaking, as well as the failings of those policies, and makes those explanations in a way that is accessible to students and people who don't already have a background in Russian history.

I reckon it was neither. Allies are allies not friends in all cases and whoever is willing to die for your cause, should you turn them away? Of course not.

This is what most people don't understand, Liberalism and the French Revolution brought on the cancer that today says there is no such thing as French people and French culture.

When I was a kid (hell I still do it now) I would dream about going back in time and becoming a great inventor.

The caveat is that your invention has to be made with the local technology. You can't bring a gun or iPad into Rome because you wouldn't have the technology to manufacture it.

So things like inventing the compass in Ancient or bringing the Arabic numeral system are fair game for Ancient Rome.

After many years I thought about it, and I think I would go back in time an invent French Fries in Ancient Rome.
