>Catherine the Great wrote in German at least one work where she described Rurik, her viking ancestor and the founder of Russia, as a Finnish Varangian
>Catherine the Great's viking ancestor and founder of Russia

Too bad she was German.

Basically, Hitler wanted to re-arm Germany, a hugely expensive process, while at the same time maintaining a robust welfare state to ensure that he had a broad base of a support. This shit is expensive, and it was paid for secretly running a huge budget deficit which was hidden from most of the German government through fancy accounting tricks.

TLDR: Imagine somebody sealing money from his neighbors to try and pay off credit card debt.

>>2999266
Germany's economic miracle of the 1930's was possible mostly due to massive overspending on public works projects (Autobahn, Olympic Stadiums, etc) and military production for rearmament, and the country took on serious loans in order to cover the costs for rebuilding the country from the ground up.

normally that would be a case for quick rise and long crash once it came time to pay up, but Hitler's intention from the start was to conquer and reap the spoils of war to repay the debt, hence why they made such an effort to collect billfolds, jewelry, gold teeth, and other possessions from the dead in order to refill the coffers to plug back into the economy both for war and for their public works projects.

If Hitler did not go through with conquest and instead drove the economy into the ground through overspending, the economy would've bottomed out by the early 1940's.

Lmao more like the material it was made of: silver. In addition Silver has long been the interstate currency in Asia. Which is basically the reason why spics made silver pesos.

I think their greatest failure was that we rekt them constantly at naval battle.

If we're talking about diets:

>One of the most famous drinkers of Köstritzer Schwarzbier was Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who sustained himself on black beer from Köstritz when he was unable to eat during a period of illness.

Nietzsche ate huge amounts of fruit everyday, giving him stomach pain.

Tuol Sleng prison in Phnom Penh. This place was a fucked up hellhouse in which almost 20,000 people were interned. There are only 7 known people who survived as prisoners.

The prison was operated by the Santebal, the Khmer Rouge's secret police force that was headed by Kang Kek Iew.

Baby don't sperge me.

Julian was the most glorious example of the Greco-Roman Pagan ideal of a Hero-Philosopher-Priest-King who had everything going for them and then tragically fucks everything up like a fucking retard due to MUH HUBRIS.

>Beloved by everyone in the West
>When you claim the throne in the East you get shitstomped
>Retreat to a fortress, besieged by Christian troops
>Suddenly the Emperor in the East fucking dies; you inherit
>Purge the Empire of Christian bureaucrats causing an administrative re-invigoration and massive increase in government efficiency
>Slash taxes, economy on the up
>Come up with your own whacky religious system, people love it and love you for it
>Oh, the Eastern armies don't like that I'm not a Christian? I'll just bribe them.
>Consult the Oracle at Delphi
>She says not to invade Persia
>Do it anyways
>Shot by some Persian sandnigger then get murdered by own troops at camp
And then everything he worked for gets utterly undone. His only lasting legacy is his work "Against the Galileans" still blowing Christians out of the water to this day and we don't even have his best arguments, just the ones the Church could come up with counters to.

Seselj is a memester even Serbian parties from the early 90s that wanted to reinstall the karadjordgevic dynasty told him to take a walk.

Not as greedy as Israelis wanting Palestinian land.

Because that is more or less what was promised to Serbia in the 1915 London agreement, and also, while looking at the ethnic map of Yugoslavia it does make some sense, with the unfortunate point being that central Slavonia is majority Croat while Eastern and Western are not (and the whole "Muslim" national identity thing that i ain't getting into).

Does the idea/theory that North Korea and the Juche ideology are derivatived from Japanese Imperialism and rule over Korea (especially in the 30's) have any credible ground?

>>The brief shaft of sunlight that was the Carolingian Renaissance: Now you see it, now you don't.

It was brief but it was shit compared to what followed, so it's hardly a "brief shaft of sunlight".

Who were the last people in the former Western Roman Empire to consider themselves Romans and in roughly what timeframe? What about the last native Romance speakers in Britain?

Aren't the Dutch basically the descendants o the group of Franks that managed to hold on to their language?

Have the Vandals left any trace of their presence in North Africa?

A class or possibly caste of priests of the Celtic faith, based in Britain but apparently active across the Celtic world. Reportedly, they were so greatly respected that they could walk between two opposing Celtic armies and forbid them from fighting, and both sides would respect the command. Of course, like everyone about the Celts, this is an apocryphal tale,and anyone who has read Celtic mythology will know they had a great love of bombast and exaggeration.

Apparently the Druids shunned writing altogether, despite its fairly widespread use by the Celts themselves. They instead relied on their memories, which were hugely developed via various mnemonic techniques a Druid would learn during their 13 year apprenticeship.
