Does anyone here actually have a job/advanced degrees in the field of History? If so what do you do? What period/subject do you study? How did you get your job?
Is it a field worth investing time and money into?
Protip - don't do history by itself if you want to actually be successful

In what sense? You mean get a double major or something?
What would each pure race look like today if racemixing never occurred?
>>3050580
Europeans would be dark skinned with blue eyes, Asians would look like pic related but with varying degrees of hair color, and Africans would look like the Khoisan or Pygmies.
In actuality, if race mixing didn't exist, no one would be alive except for the San and other related groups. Neanderthals and Denisovans might even be still alive, though that's species mixing. Basically OP, your question is pretty dumb, you might want to expand on it.
>>3050599
If everyone stuck to their tribe and never interbreeded beyond third cousins or do anything that would create an offspring with genetic defects since the dawn of humanity until now.
>>3050580
>if racemixing never occurred
This is nonsensical since a separate "pure" race has never existed nor could exist.
Why not just call the whole thing England? Everyone has same language and looks the same, the only difference is that one likes potatoes and one wears skirt sometimes.

So to those who don't know, Colombia has had a very wild history; like holy hell they can't get a break ever since the collapse of La Gran Colombia in the 1830s. Now moving aside from that, something I have always found interesting is Colombian radio broadcasts from the 30s, 40s and 50s--- Especially because a lot of them have to do with Jorge Eliécer Gaitán at one point.
Unfortunately for me, the few broadcasts I have been able to find of this material are buried away in the seas of the internet, and I am dying to get my hands on more radio out of Colombia from that time period but can't seem to find any.
Anyone want to go looking? (feel free to use this threat for general discussion of Colombia in this time frame too; Though I really am just wanting radio)
>>3050339
Colombia is a sad shithole, a puppet of the USA and a nursery of criminals, corrupts and failed revolutionaries movements. Colombians in general does´t care about thier own history or even thier future, they only care about football and crappy soap operas about death popular singers.
t. a depressed colombian.
>>3051402
Think of it this way, you just passed Venezuela going in the opposite direction.
>>3051402
Our country is much more than that and you know it. Most people strive for a better future within their capacities but the government and bureaucracy set us back every time at every chance. The way you depict it perpetuates that stupid latin american stereotype we all hate. I hope you change your mind soon, you sound like one of those people who make the country as shitty as it is with your loser narrative. You're a faggot.
t. Colombian living abroad
Was Hitler a muslim?
>>3050289
No, it's a complete coincidence that he shared the Muslim's views on antisemitism, racism, homophobia, sexism, genocide, slavery, and anti-Christianity.
>>3050289
Of course not
Why does the Church of England consider him a 'reformation martyr' when he was a Catholic until the end and was literally killed because he refused to partake in the Church of England?
Is there something I'm missing?
>>3050285
British propaganda
>>3050285
baka dumb protestants, truly degenerate.
>>3050285
Maybe they meant reformation era martyrs?
This guy gets a lot of historical slander. What's the real story?

The "ten trillion Congolese died" meme is just that: a meme.
Plenty of academic sources linked here.
http://thealternativehypothesis.org/index.php/2016/07/24/mythologies-about-leopolds-congo-free-state/
Noble richfag who ruled over a non-country and exploited Africans in the Congo.
What else is there? You want people to tell you his mission wasn't profit-driven so you can argue I'm favour of the Congo free state on Facebook or something? Don't want to believe whites can do wrong sometimes?
>>3049945
I think it's quite obvious to anyone with a functional brain that the ten centillion number is complete bollocks, especially in an age where no official numbers of the population were present.
Either way if this meme relies on a single source as they claim in your link, then this number becomes even more questionable

I know that Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) produced a huge amount of food back in the day. It was a large percentage of all the food in SSA, and they had very arable land. Did the confiscation of white farms by Mugabe have a major effect on the food supply of Africa, and did it have any correlation to famines in Somalia, Ethiopia, etc?
Smells like homework.
>>3051639
Smells more like a pol rhodesia circle jerk to me
>>3049828
>Did the confiscation of white farms by Mugabe have a major effect on the food supply of Africa,
No, it did however have a profound effect on the food supply of Zimbabwe
>and did it have any correlation to famines in Somalia, Ethiopia, etc?
No, those where local and due to by population growth, underdeveloped agriculture and natural effects
I'm thinking of investing in Africa because I love its diverse culture. From a historical perspective, are Africans capable of sustaining a steady civilization? All I know is that there are kings and tribes who often go to war with each others.
>>3049683

Ethiopia has been a thing for like 2000 years

In the modern age, literally anyone can maintain a state. I feel like this thread is /pol/ bait tho.

what the hell was Crassus' problem?
>>3049632
"I'm not splitting the loot with the Armenians, what could go wrong?" - Crassus [citation not needed]
He hired a local guide that supposedly could lead his army around the enemy. The guide was actually am enemy agent and led him into a death trap.

So do you mean an isolated sheep farmer in Iceland? Or a member of the Hungarian aristocracy? I'm guessing you mean American """""white""""" people though so probably big band or swing or something.

Except stirrups had been invented and spread across all of Eurasia hundreds of years before the mongol empire?
>>3049454
I thought the franks invented the stirrup, hence why mongols got BTFO by the eternal hun
>>3049495
Stirrups were introduced by the huns.
Though all years of human history has anyone found a truly consuming purpose to life outside of religion. My life was Christianity up till recently till I pretty much wholly disproved it in my own mind. Now I am agnostic and I feel like I've fucked myself because now my life has 0 meaning. So can anyone tell me what the point is without God? I love Christianity with its culture and art. Not sure I can live without it and I completely regret being so skeptical. Was Orthodox btw.
Sorry for grammar but my sanity is slowly getting worse and I am getting less and less sleep. been about 42 hours since I've gotten a wink just from steess thinking.
The concept of Christ is great, but the way if the world is Greatest. Nothing can happen without the implicit will of God. And even through agnosticism towards Christ you still follow the way of God.
Trust me on this bro you need to re-think it because there's stuff going on in the un-seen that would make you realize it's not all just moralistic "philosophy" as some would claim. It' s real spiritual truth as told by the holy spirit which governs things beyond human conception due to our own voluntary sedation of the mind's true capabilities to be fully aware of what's going on around us 24/7.
Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Jesus literally cast out demons that caused insanity/sickness/etc in people multiple times it's not a metaphor what does that tell you in itself
Praise Jesus and God Bless
