Why is more than half of Europe not actually in Europe?
I thought the Ural Mountains was the agreed on border of Europe, and border of the core Russia, the rest being her empire?
Are the Europeans the true God's chosen people?
>>3037136
>Japan
>Thailand
>Never colonised
Did whitey fear the yellow warrior?
>>3037138
Looks that way doesn't it, SAD!
>>3037136
not a single country on earth has not been colonized or heavily influenced upon by europe. stupid map.
1. "For the sake of historical truth I must verify that only the Greeks, of all the adversaries who confronted us, fought with bold courage and highest disregard of death.." - Adolf Hitler (speech he gave at Reichstag, 4 May 1941)
2. "The word heroism I am afraid does not render the least of those acts of self-sacrifice of the Greeks, which were the defining factor in the victorious outcome of the common struggle of the nations, during WWII, for the human freedom and dignity. If it were not for the bravery of the Greeks and their courage, the outcome of WW II would be undetermined." - Winston Churchill (speech to British Parliament, 24 April 1941)
3. "Until now we used to say that the Greeks fight like heroes. Now we shall say: The heroes fight like Greeks."- Winston Churchill (From a speech he delivered from the BBC in the first days of the Greco-Italian war)
4. "I am sorry because I am getting old and I shall not live long to thank the Greek People, whose resistance decided WW II." - Joseph Stalin (From a speech of his broadcast by the Moscow radio station on 31 January 1943 after the victory of Stalingrad and the capitulation of German 6th Army Field Marshal Von Paulus)
5. "If the Russian people managed to raise resistance at the doors of Moscow to halt and reverse the German torrent, they owe it to the Greek People, who delayed the German divisions during the time they could bring us to our knees." - Georgy Constantinovich Zhoukov (Field Marshal of the Soviet Army: Quote from his memoirs on WWII)
I don't understand the thread
Why did Stalin and Zhukov suck Greek cock so much? I thought the whole "just invade in the spring" thing was a meme.
Were we?
What happened in ancient germany?

On a morbid topic, can we talk about West Africa and their Voodoo Alternate personalities?
A friend of mine was studying horticulture in West Africa back in the seventies. He told me that he wanted to take in the local cultures, he went to Vodun markets and such and he somehow got invited to stay at this woman's house. Everything was going fine at first until her baby started crying, and she wasn't doing anything about it. He said the poor thing was covered in shit, and she just started wailing on it. Then that night she tried to attack him the same way but he was stronger so he could hold her back, then he left and had to walk two miles where he slept at a bar stool. He later learned about Voodoo alters, where they will take something minute, like an unexpected joke, and take it as a form of bewitching and completely change. One moment they are nice and calm, the next, fucking bush warrior.
Can anyone help me understand more about this?
He had more, but he really doesn't like looking back on those days.
Pic somewhat unrelated.

Maybe /pol/ is right about black people.
drugs are usually hell of a drug to escape reality
theres no vodoo magic, just crackheads amusing foreigners
>>3036945
thats usualy a result of trauma, or its some clusterfuck of mental disorder simptoms popping up
people living in deregulated conditions of poverty and frequent violence tend to get veird and crazy
Do you have some good akademic papers on hungarian transition to democraty in 1989, like how did it started, who was in charged and so on.
when i had a class of it at uni we didnt have any books about it, im not sure such a work exists
>>3036957
I think there are books in hungarian but not available in English. I only found some papers so I can summ ut what happened in Hungary.
>1986
>economic crisis
>Communist Party in Hungary divided between hardliner and reformers (Imre Poszgay)
>Pozsgay starts a coup and removes the Hardliners
>same time intelectuals starts the Oppositional round table
>the reform communist and Oppositional round table negotiate for free elections
Did I miss some detailes?
>>3036989
yea, shitloads
are you hungarian?
Why does society generally have a zero tolerance towards bullying but if someone gets raped its the victims fault?
What kind of sociological double-think is this?
sounds like you're confusing liberal public schools and the third world
what shithole country do you come from where rapists aren't instantly lynched
>>3036907
United States of America
Have you ever been to a museum?
Have you ever been to a abandoned historical place?
Share your pictures.

Holy shit did white people really used to write in stone while the chinese were using paper? lol
Do K*rds deserve their own country?
>>3036848
Sure.
>>3036848
Yes. They're fighting & bleeding for it right now. If America is a white man's land by right of conquest, then surely the Kurds deserve a country after all they've suffered and achieved against an enemy we ourselves are fighting.
>>3036862
>>3036855
ok
why are they being erased from history?
>Do not try to treat this board as /pol/ with dates.
/pol/ is probably wrong, look up the facts and statistics before leaping to conclusions
post the greatest man of every century
20th representing
>>3036769
Pic is obvious bait.
But sure. Ill play along and top you with a late 20th century myself.
>>3036778
how is it bait?
Sorry, bruh. But it's not even a contest - Stalin wins it hands down every time.
>Literally who Georgian pleb comes out of nowhere, becomes the most powerful man on the entire planet, takes over half of Europe absolutely destroying the Third Reich in the process, and turns the USSR into one of the three global superpowers ever to exist in just a couple of decades.
Love him or hate him. But you can't deny that he's an absolute and total GOD.
Is there any sort of site or page that gives the best books to read for any given subject, era, or event?
Thanks.
i have quite a few charts/guides ive saved from his and lit and even pol, what are you looking for?
>>3036678
I was thinking the War of the Three Kingdoms, preferably something that holistically covers the war and doesn't just concentrate on the English Civil War.
Also maybe the Seven Years War.
>>3036678
Or if you want to just dump the charts I'd be a fan of that. :)
Throughout the cold war what's considered the closest the world was to having a nuclear war? (In your own opinion of course)
>>3036535
Cuban Missile crisis.
Missile on Cuba, turkey, and Italy ready to shoot
That one incident with India and Pakistan where The USSR deployed nuclear submarines to stop American and British ships from helping Pakistan IIRC
Cuban Missile Crisis is obvious.
Able Archer is another one;
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Able_Archer_83
Was there ever a greater strategist/logistician than him?
>>3036479
Grant? Because Grant is under appreciated and is forever stained because the South fucking hated him.
Alexander the great for one.
