Why is he praised in the West, but Hitler is despised? There is literally no difference, both did bad stuff to humans who lived on the territory they controlled.
So what that Mao didn't fucking invade anyone? This doesn't exactly help his victims.

Recently had an argument with a bunch of communist cunts about how shit communism is. The fuckers said the USSR was a utopian paradise that defeated Nazi Germany essentially alone.
So, who really won it: UK, US, or USSR?
>>2902014
nobody really "won" the war, but the US was in the best condition coming out of it
>>2902014
American sweat, Russian blood and all of Europe's tears.
>>2902014
USSR, but UK & US was good moral support
Was life better for the average person in Iberia under Muslim rule than Christian?

Hitler ordered the mass killing of innocent people with 20th century mechanical efficiency.
Leopold was chilling in Belgium while his agents implemented a slightly harsh colonial policy to get rubber out of a jungle.

It's almost as though WWII was a global thing, as opposed to some crackpot king bleeding some irrelevent shithole in Africa dry.
Saged.
I was reading about the First Opium War recently, and I have to ask: how did China and the rest of the world fall so far behind Europe? In 1800 China had a GDP six times that of Russia's and the world's largest population and area. But it literally didn't matter when their military was so out of date that 2/3 of men used polearms and bows, average redcoat could engage even the best Chinese troops from three times their effective range with four times their effective firepower, British artillery could destroy their Chinese counterparts with counter-battery fire well beyond their ability to engage, and a single ship of the line carried more (and better) guns than an entire Chinese junk fleet. What exactly happened that set the Asian militaries 200 years behind their European counterparts after thousands of years of being equal or superior? And why was Japan and no one else able to quickly overcome this difference?
>>2901203
Hong Xiuquan was right, the Manchus were a poison in China. They actively weakened their own nation to stay in control, and even then the Qing were under a constant state of rebellion
They weren't exposed to the technological revolution happening around the Mediterranean and Europe.
>>2901226
That doesn't explain the rest of the world though. I only used China as an example because they were by far the most populous country in the world and the most powerful non-European country.
The future is post national. Secession will be the revolution of tomorrow.
Your thoughts?
Cant wait to live in the Neo-Shanghai Acropolis
it's post national, true, but the future is corporations and consumer blocs
There is virtually no evidence of this happening.

Hi /his/, recently I came into a bit of money. I wanted to buy a medium/high grade sword. But I really don't know what to get. I posted a similar thread on /k/ but to no avail. Please help me out /his/torians.
Here's my picks so far, but feel free to make recommendations.

You're probably not going to find much help here. I'd suggest that you go ask on a HEMA forum or something.
/k/ might be of some use, but they almost never discuss weapons other than firearms.
>>2901049
Yeah I tried /k/ already. I'l probably just pick one at random if this thread gets archived. Thanks anyways.

Which country in Europe lived up to the legacy of Rome most?
>>2900953
The DPRK?
Unironically either Ottomans or Russia.
Huge, aggressive, expansionist, multicultural lasted that way for centuries.
there is no distinct legacy of rome pertaining solely to one people, there are for instance no Byzantines with us here today
you can say whatever you like it really matters not at all, the whole of our culture is in a way colored by the achievements of that ancient state, indeed the whole of it is in a way rome
Thoughts?

Why do communists want to 'enlighten the proletariat' so badly? The average person is a <110 IQ, snivelling, mouth-breathing mongoloid. All that happens when they are 'enlightened' is usually pic related. So why bother?
>why does ideology want to convert a lot of people to ideology
Found the <110 IQ mouth-breathing mongoloid.
>>2900852
Tankies drank too much Kool-Aid and started liking all the worst parts of the things their values lead them to. That said, I'd much rather have more useful idiots for more democratized purposes than useful idiots for business interests.
>>2900862
If the only 'people' you can convert are these, your ideology might just be dead (not like it died >100 years ago or anything).
