Islam had nothing to do with it, those smart persians and indians would've existed with or without Islam.

>>3364064
but persians dont exist today

arabs and turkics raped iranians to extinction

Anon "the middle ages" is around 1000 years of history, where and when do you specifically mean? The answer is going to vary a lot depending on that.

I wasn't thinking of a specific range, but I guess between the 10th and 16th century is fine. I hope it's not too broad, I'm genuinely curious about this and I'm not sure where else I can ask.

>1) How were people with diaabilities treated? In particular, deafness and muteness. Were they taken care of, hated, treated?

By their families. Deaf and mute people were seen as being disabled, it was mental illness that would attract fear and hatred, schizophrenics in particular were often objects of shame and hate.

>2) Related to n.1, what exactly is illiteracy? Does a person who can't read see words the same way we see egyptian hieroglyphs? Do they understand words and grammar? And would a deaf person be able to use sign language despite not knowing how to write and read?

Sign language does not require written literacy, although it is a related concept. Literacy was generally poor at all levels of society, but again there were exceptions such as England were peasants achieved high levels of literacy because the Common Law allowed them to sue their masters for breaches of the feudal contract, giving them a financial incentive to learn to read so they can check up on their rights.

>3) Was there any slavery during this time? Not quite forced labor, but explicit slavery.

It varied, in the North and West not really, Vikings kept slaves but in very small numbers and this custom died out with the spread of Christianity. Of course, the Byzantine Empire still used slaves in huge numbers, as did the Muslims.

>4) Any big, noteworthy civil wars around this era?

What era? "The middle ages"? Yeah, one or two.

>5) How were different sexual orientations viewed during this time? I imagine a pair of lesbian lovers must've kept it pretty secret.

Lesbianism wasn't understood as a thing. Sodomy was against God and so persecuted, and most people lived in very small communities where everyone knows everyone else, so keeping homolust secret would have been tricky. OTOH, most people then as now didn't much care what you get up to in your bedroom, and I'm sure many homo couples lived more or less openly, tolerated by their neighbors but kept away from the priest.

He played the game right and didn't go against the US, if you're a dictator and want to live long that's pretty much all you need to do.

Didn't gas his own people like Hitler, Mussolini, Saddam and Gaddafi but he was still a fash.

>>3362397
basically this
Franco didn't waste time and risk his position going on pointless World Wars for some pipedream colonial empire (Mussolini) and instead consolidated his power home and waited things out

Why did Finland never accomplish anything?

Why do people shit on sub-saharan Africa when they're actually just criticizing Bantu civilizations?

Because they're from Africa.

>>3362271
because that's how ethnic religious groups work

Because the Orthodox church is run by former members of the KGB

Because the Russians were, are and always will be slaves.

And when you see the Western /pol/shits and Russians here talk about muh traditional values and Christianity they mean icons of Stalin and priests with wrist watches and cars that 99% of the population can't afford.
