Byzantium is actually well liked by many on /his/. The people who hate it are usually only doing so because it is already popular.

How did Roman border forts work? Why wouldn't Germanic tribes or other groups slip inbetween such border forts? What was the distance between each fort?

Germans were like Native Americans. They didn't understand the concept of borders.

forts didn't exist to enforce borders, they they were QRF garrisons

Like every other forts: the enemy can't ignore them and walk into your territory without being surrounded. If he want to secure his advance, he have to take the forts as he progress.

Traffic light

Invented by Garrett A. Morgan in 1923? Nope.

The first known traffic signal appeared in London in 1868 near the Houses of Parliament. Designed by JP Knight, it featured two semaphore arms and two gas lamps. The earliest electric traffic lights include Lester Wire's two-color version set up in Salt Lake City circa 1912, James Hoge's system (US patent #1,251,666) installed in Cleveland by the American Traffic Signal Company in 1914, and William Potts' 4-way red-yellow-green lights introduced in Detroit beginning in 1920. New York City traffic towers began flashing three-color signals also in 1920.

Garrett Morgan's cross-shaped, crank-operated semaphore was not among the first half-hundred patented traffic signals, nor was it "automatic" as is sometimes claimed, nor did it play any part in the evolution of the modern traffic light.

Peanut butter

George Washington Carver (who began his peanut research in 1903)? Nope.

Peanuts, which are native to the New World tropics, were mashed into paste by Aztecs hundreds of years ago. Evidence of modern peanut butter comes from US patent #306727 issued to Marcellus Gilmore Edson of Montreal, Quebec in 1884, for a process of milling roasted peanuts between heated surfaces until the peanuts reached "a fluid or semi-fluid state." As the product cooled, it set into what Edson described as "a consistency like that of butter, lard, or ointment." In 1890, George A. Bayle Jr., owner of a food business in St. Louis, manufactured peanut butter and sold it out of barrels. J.H. Kellogg, of cereal fame, secured US patent #580787 in 1897 for his "Process of Preparing Nutmeal," which produced a "pasty adhesive substance" that Kellogg called "nut-butter."

Wait, so the nazis were boy fuckers?

>Strength, passion, lack of hypocrisy, utilitarianism, traditional family values, and devotion to community were valued by the Nazis and first expressed by many Romantic artists, musicians, and writers, as well as, among the Nazi elite, the ancient Greek habit of same-sex relations between the military and young boys praised notably in Plato's works, and favored by German sensualists such as Röhm, Bielas and Wessel. German romanticism in particular expressed these values.

Are the iberian peninsula inhabitants iberians, celts, romans, moors, or germanic? Or at least releated to any of those groups?

Pic kinda unreleated

>using the word moors
A mix of all of that anyway but mostly iberians, and probably no significan roman admixture.
>>
>>3090072
we still call people from north africa moors, even in school they call them muslims/moors.

Also the iberians/celts of the peninsula were heavily romaniced
>>
>>3090054
When the Romans came they established colonies throughout Spain and eventually assimilated the Iberians and the celts. The goths contributed little to the genetics of the population since they were just the ruling elite. When the mudslimes invaded they destroyed some cities like Valencia and rebuilt it with mudslime colonists. Portugal was colonized by Berber mudlsimes. After the reconquest the moors of Aragon, Valencia were allowed to remain while the andalucians and portugalese moors were expelled to either Granada or morocco. The after Spain conquered Granada and they revolted to reinstate shariah law 2 times in 1490s and 1570s the Spanish king relocated them throughout Castile where they assimilated. The expulsion edicts of 1609 expelled valenciana and aragonese peasants to Tunisia, morocco, and Algeria.

Is it safe to say that Modern Europe was built upon social democratic values? Or atleast social liberal? Most goverments have social democratic tendencies like welfare and some state owning. Most of Europe was social democracies before neoliberal politics

Yes, post-1960s western european countries became social democratic welfare states.

I still believe in social democracy, but the movement isn't in good shape right now.

Union membership and working class identity is declining.

>>3089707

Because God wills it, as is right for a thirsty blood god.

Think about the "miracle" of transubstantiation. It's a ritualistic sacrifice of blood and human flesh on a scale that would Huitzilopochtli green with envy. That wine and bread literally turn into the flesh and blood of Christ through ritual magic, like a level 6 blood ritual in Dominions 4, but for realsies.

Of course such a god would revel in suffering just as he makes his followers do the most amazing mental gymnastics to square that with his benevolent reputation.

There was a red scare just before WW2. They put it aside to take down the more immediate threat before resuming hostilities

>>3089620
Yea but we didn't hate the soviets enough to not hook them up on lend lease before we were officially in the war. Seems strange we went from being on OK terms to hating them seemingly over night. Within a year of the war we were much friendlier to Japan and Germany than we were them.
