What went wrong, /his/ ?
>>3067865
Polish noblemen whored their kingdom's rightful heiress with some pagan fuck
>>3067966
seems like a right move considering the duchy was much larger in size than poland
>>3067974
Yeah, a sparsely inhabited conglomeration of swamps and plains with a huge indefensible border with mongols and muscovites was a truly great addition to the p*lish crown.
I want to get into Roman history.
Where should I start? Recommended reads?
start with Caesar first
then you have an easier time moving backward or forward
>>3072053
Get Caesar by Adrian Goldsworthy, It's great and explains the political institutions. You can get Caesars writings about his campaigns online for free. Then read up on all the empire stuff.
>>3072053
Historia Civilis on youtube has great stuff.
Why do white people try to cover up history so much?
>>3072001
>1 mummy
>real egyptians were black
Really sears my steaks
>>3072005
There are 0 white mummies
Meanwhile ALL mummies are black
btfo
>>3072001
I know this is bait, but I nevertheless couldn't give any credit to "Black History Breaking News Environment"
>the Bohemian Grove that I attend from time to time... it is the most faggy goddamned thing you could ever imagine
What did he mean by this?
>>3071903
It's not really a world-controlling cult, but rather a bunch of rich guys doing shitty fraternity hazing rituals.
>ywn relax with Jack London in the BG
> They put the Jewish interest above America's interest and it's about goddamn time that the Jew in America realizes he's an American first and a Jew second
but what did he mean by this?
What are your thoughts on the medieval hanseatic league?
>>3071869
Least favorite start date. All the could shits already happened and there's only a few hundred years left.
>>3071869
Only time Plattduutsch/low german was actually relevant
>>3071869
Judging by the name of it, it was supposedly lead by Hans.
>we must stop germany from taking over the world
Germany was bullying Europeans though and only they matter
>>3071536
if this was true then the ottomans would have never existed
>>3071544
99% of the time they only bullied eastern euros, and those are considered subhuman by anglos
But wait, weren't we Europeans subhumans living in huts when Arabs were undergoing their "golden age".
So how come our architecture during the Merovingian and Carolingian periods was so advanced, comparable to Arab Mosque??
I don't understand!
>>3071495
I'm talking Merovingian mind you!
500-700 AD, and then Carolingian: 700-1000 AD
Not 1100-1300 AD with those gothic cathedrals
I'm talking dark DARk ages!!
>>3071498
Yes!
This structure was built by retards!
>>3071495
That´s cause you are really dumb.
Is Islam just the next dominant religion?
Like how Christianity did Islam has been growing and expanding since its inception, is it possible it will overtake Cheistianity?
>>3071435
>Is Islam just the next dominant religion?
Atheism is
>>3071435
Yes, God wills it.
>>3071435
In number of souls yes, dominant in the sense of being in a dominant position, not necessarily.
Imagine being a Byzantine, imagine you lost more than half of your clay to Bulgarians, Arabs and other barbarians, but then you manage to recover and reconquer northern levant, Bulgaria, Balkans and Armenia.
Then this guy appears
>>3071398
High test as fuck. Would gladly be cucked by.
>>3071398
That's just a native Anatolian, the average Byzantine probably looked like that.
The Turks looked like this when they first rolled in
>>3071417
Actually wrong
Turks descended from Turkmens, not Kazakhs. That means Turks were enriched by Persians. So the look varied from persian to half mongoloid. Like pic related.
>Nazis = racist antisemitic totalitarian socialists
>Marxists= racist antisemitic totalitarian socialists
Literally the same thing.

>>3071081
Marxists are internationalists, so no. Try again.
>>3071081
Yep. Tankies and Nazis btfo. Left libertarians are fine, but really they need to quit the weed and wisen up.
Charles the king of Sweden

Now what if Charles had been born in the modern era, the era of femminism

CAIRO – 10 July 2017: Khaled El-Anany, Minister of Antiquities announced Monday during his visit to Damietta governorate that the coming days will witness the announcement of an important archaeological discovery that will astonish the whole world.
Anany refused to disclose what the discovery is or reveal where it was made. “I will leave it to speculations.’’ He said adding that it is a graveyard dating back to the Pharaonic era. Anany pointed out that the announcement of the discovery will be made in the presence of ambassadors in Cairo.
What incredible discovery is he going to reveal, bros?

pretty sure they found a Pharaoh or a new city. Anyway big indeed
What are some well-known Pharaohs whose tombs weren't discovered yet?
>>3070849
That Egyptian minister looks pretty black
Were mosquitoes a major problem for soldiers who fought in wars that took place in more tropical/jungle areas? And I don't even mean diseases and such, im talking about those tiny fuckers that you don't even feel their sting, but later on they itch a lot
Are there any videos/academic articles that mention this?
>>3070773
Yes, the French lost in Haiti primarily because malaria devastated their army.
>>3070773
Comes up a lot in Lewis and Clark's journals and North America isn't even tropical. His men used animal tallow as a lotion to keep the mosquitoes away.
>>3070773
Alexander The Great was believed to have died of malaria, and the Huns were devastated with Malaria after crossing into western Europe.
>Here below, some pray, others fight, still others work . . . from the beginning, mankind has been divided into three parts, among men of prayer, farmers, and men of war . .
Would you rather be one who fights, one who works, or one who prays in the Middle Ages? I'd rather be the one who worked because fighting would kill me and praying is boring. So ironically, I think life would be best as a peasant for me. What about you, /his/? Who would you be?
I´ve known since childhood that in the middle ages I would be a monk/clergy, even though I don´t believe in god lmao.
Advantages: study, hard work, but not alienating, can grow your own organic foods, brew your own beer, companionship, no women around.
>>3070748
Sadly you'd be praying most of the time so you're pretty much cucked to begin with imo, especially if you're a secretly atheist monk
Probably one who prays. But I'd probably be a lot like Luther during his monastic days, a completely neurotic spaz worrying all the time about whether I'm getting it right and if I'd done enough, and pissing off my confessors with detailed, seemingly-frivolous confessions.

I'm not so sure about that, the border was hardly undefended

You can hardly blame a single man

A quick wiki
The Siegfried Line at the start of the war had serious weaknesses. German General Alfred Jodl said after the war that it was "little better than a building site in 1939", and when Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt inspected the line its weak construction and insufficient weapons caused him to laugh.
I imagine Runstedt and Jodl were capable of an assessment.
