Hitler was secretly a communist and lost the war to ensure much of Europe would be communist

he learned that dead people shit their pants upon death and wished to no longer be alone so he made sure he started a war that would kill lots

This is the correct answer. Hitler was a communist.

Just got finished reading this book. Pretty interesting look at history from the perspective of different understandings of world order, especially that established at the Peace of Westphalia. Anyone else here read this? What did you think?

What should the "HRE test" be called?
I'm talking about the test which questions the validity of an entity's official name, for example:
---
>Holy
>Roman
>Empire
---
I personally like the term "three chevron test". What other names would you give it? "Voltaireposting" always works, but it sounds memey.
Onto another question - what country are you from and how does it perform on the test?
> Commonwealth
> of Australia
Commonwealth (n.) - a state formed for the common good -
Australia (n.) - the continent Australia
I think Australia succeeds the test on a moderate level at least, given it's fourth on inequality adjusted HDI and it covers what people think is the continent of Australia.

>Archaeologists have found the remains of 42 children sacrificed to Tlaloc (and a few to Ehecátl Quetzalcóatl) in the offerings of the Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlan.
>In every case, the 42 children, mostly males aged around six, were suffering from serious cavities, abscesses or bone infections that would have been painful enough to make them cry continually.
>Tlaloc required the tears of the young so their tears would wet the earth.
>As a result, if children did not cry, the priests would sometimes tear off the children's nails before the ritual sacrifice.[7]
>In History of the Things of New Spain Sahagún confesses he was aghast by the fact that, during the first month of the year, the child sacrifices were approved by their own parents, who also ate their children.[9]
Were the Spaniards justified in conquering the Aztecs?

Why did they divide land equally rather than just make the first son king of the Romans and the others dukes
>>
>>3045409
Frankish cultural customs meant that they saw land as mere property to be divided up amongst sons almost equally.
>>
>>3045409
you mean the division after the 843 treaty of verdun?

How did Roman Empire legitimize its rulership over the provinces?
Was is just a case of "Might makes it Right", or did they have any other sort of legitimization?

please respond

a mix of might make right and appeasing to the strongest warlord who would want to be bedfellows
being a roman is very attractive to people back then

>>3066800
I mean not in practice, but from an ideological perspective.
How would they persuade people in Iberia that Roman Empire is their rightful ruler?
