Why did Galicia split from Portugal?

>>2745213
They were never part of Portugal.

>>2745213
It was Portugal that split from Galicia. Portugal was Galicia's vassal state.

Pretty impressive considering where they are. Then again I thought dar al islam was supposed to be this big unifying force of wealth and power. Is this mosque recent or what?

>>2741267
>The first mosque on the site was built around the 13th century, but the current structure dates from 1907.

Impossible, we're talking about tens of millions in Soviet case.

Not much of entire population is ever mobilized, not even in large wars. General rule is that a country should be able to mobilize maximum 10% of its whole population in case of war.

By 1945 it was mostly Mongolian rapists.

Daily reminder swords, spears, bows & arrows, clubs, and maces are all machines.

Obviously we must go back to the valorous days of biting, scratching, gouging, kicking and punching each other.
>Gibbon
No wonder.

Well, no, he's operating on a false premise to start with.
>as personal valour and military skill declined with the Roman empire.
This didn't happen. In fact you could argue it's the opposite of the truth, given that small-scale skirmishes were a lot more common, "personal valour" became more important. I personally wouldn't make that argument but you could. Gibbon is wrong in any case, though.

fuck you

They didn't hate you because you looked germanic, they hated you because you were responsible for socialism and the defeat of germany in world war one or something like that.

Who cares

>>2755157
I do

Over-glorified researcher who was a progenitor of neo-conservatism and proof that nepotism pervades academia and politics.

Because people like to be right, especially if it happens to be unpopular and if conforms to their beliefs.

>>2755091
Because if it's incorrect, it's just fiction.

The internet. It's such an overwhelming source of information that it has literally overloaded everyone, and with services like google who "narrow" your search to fit your perceptions, it's inevitable that different views on something will be harder to disprove.

Honestly, only by the late 1800s or so. Russia was still having trouble with steppe nomads until well after modernization under Peter.

barbarians settle down eventually

Hand held firearms vastly changed the power gradient between sedentary cultures and nomadic ones.

Before them, it was extremely hard to deal with horse archers.

The last really big example I can think of where a civilized society was overrun by nomads was the Mogul Conquest of India, although I'm sure some more knowledgeable anon will correct me.

>>2754976
Fairly accurate, but the backlash from the Germans went beyond justice into revenge and murder. Of course the Poles inflated the numbers of victims but there were definite murders.

>literally using a youtube comment to start a thread

Kill yourself.

>Bloody Sunday (German: Bromberger Blutsonntag; Polish: Krwawa niedziela) was a sequence of events that took place in Bydgoszcz (German: Bromberg), a Polish city with a sizable German minority, between 3 and 4 September 1939, immediately after the German invasion of Poland.
>immediately after the german invasion of poland

>A U.S. Infantry company in 20 utility helicopters and seven Cobra attack helicopters circled behind them. Behind these helicopters, B-52 Stratofortresses, which some described as "nuclear ready" came from Guam escorted by U.S. F-4 Phantom IIs from Kunsan Air Base and South Korean F-5 and F-86 fighters were visible flying across the sky at high altitude. At Taegu Air Base, F-111 bombers of the 366th Tactical Fighter Wing out of Mountain Home Air Force Base, were stationed, and F-4 Phantoms C and D from the 18th TFW Kadena Air Base and Clark Air Base were also deployed. The aircraft carrier USS Midway task force had also been moved to a station just offshore.

>Near the edges of the DMZ, many more heavily armed U.S. and South Korean infantry, artillery including the Second Battalion, 71st Air Defense Regiment armed with Improved Hawk missiles, and armor were waiting to back up the special operations team. Bases near the DMZ were prepared for demolition in the case of a military response. The defense condition (DEFCON) was elevated on order of General Stilwell, as recounted in Colonel De LaTeur's research paper later. In addition, 12,000 additional troops were ordered to Korea, including 1,800 Marines from Okinawa.[6] During the operation, nuclear-capable strategic bombers circled over the JSA. According to an intelligence analyst monitoring the North Korea tactical radio net, the accumulation of force "blew their... minds".

>Altogether, Task Force Vierra consisted of 813 men: almost all of the men of the United States Army Support Group, of which the Joint Security Force was a part; a South Korean reconnaissance company; a South Korean Special Forces company which had infiltrated the river area by the bridge the night before; and members of a reinforced composite rifle company from the 9th Infantry Regiment. In addition to this force, every UNC force in the rest of South Korea was on battle alert.

All this over a fucking tree.

>>2754968
Not really. It was quite clever from a military standpoint.

War is like sex.

It's all about communication.

Dude could fucking stab sharks with that face

I enjoy this theory because it's assuming Olympic and Titanic were identical both inside and out.
Which is not true.

>>2754831

except he points that out, the window layouts, the permanent lean which passengers noted

they talk about the decorations being exactly the same, only rugs added to "titantic" at the last second

also the fact that video under the water shows the riveted letters that have fallen off and the real letters which were on the actual metal underneath

as well as the undercoating which is grey and only Olympic had grey undercoat

they also can see the propeller serial number which was the one replaced on the Olympic after it was hit by the battle cruiser, also the underneath re-enforcement

Anyone who has sympathy for Japan in WW2 is a fucking idiot.

ignore them.

If you are making a claim, you are the one who has to source it

>why can't I just say whatever I want in an argument and have people accept it at face value?

lol

but you should have a source for every claim you make that is based on one. what are you, just making shit up?
