aesthetic borders

culturally we're quite different. we were historically tied to the British and only really hastily formed as a country in response to the American civil war ending as a defensive measure for their new military industrial complex that was still itching for a fight.

those borders were terrible and led to endless ethnic conflict, oppression and subjugation of entire nationalities. why is that era so idolised on here?

So what? Slavery doesn't exist anymore.

Yeawh American anti-slavery isn't about general abolitionism, otherwise they'd hate muslims then and now. It's about black people saying they were hurt, are still hurt, and deserve things because of it.

The father sent his son to die in the most painful way so we could be freed from our sin, yet you still die with sin. This is as valid an arguement as 'Gay sex isn't a sin because why would god hate gay people and allow only straight people to have relationships'

Actually Hell is more like your own choice. You reject God and you spend rest of eternity without him. That is the Hell, you without God.

>>2727637
Indeed, with god anything is possible, without god the same is true but in the form that it can always be worse

"Countrymen" is a liberal nationalist conception inapplicable to Cossack history. They saw no kinship between themselves and random settled Slavs in Ukraine or the Pontus.

Cossack is defined as free Christian steppe nomad that's it

The only people who defend it are edgy man children who think they would totally be Obergruppenfuhrer add not some human meat shield in Stalingrad.

>>2727551
They also for some reason fail to realize that in a Nazi state, they wouldn't be able to speak freely about politics online without living in fear of a knock on the door.

That's prehistory numbnuts

Mostly it gets destroyed with time. Ancient peoples didn't like graffiti anymore than we like graffiti today. If you're lucky and the structure got buried or built over with age you can find stuff still.

2000 years from now they'll be digging out LA graffiti from the preserving ash of Yellowstone

Sikh does have pretty fascinating theology. It is probably only religion where religion demands equal rights for women. Very cohesive faith, model miniority in the UK.

Their Gurus were tortured to death by Muslims, because they refused to convert. So yeah, Sikhs do not really like Islam.

Probably best warriors India ever produced though, even today they are elite part of Indian army.

The Hindus didn't persecute us

Sikhism was partially a response to Islam being Islam

ftfy

I did a quick google search and came up with this, doesn't fully answer your question but may give some insight


1.European agriculturalists lived in closer proximity to disease vectors than did most Native Americans. A number of important diseases started with pigs, fowl, and so on before making the leap to humans. The Americas had fewer large mammals than did Eurasia, and so there were fewer candidates for domestication. Accordingly, American agricultural communities picked up fewer diseases than did Eurasian agricultural communities.


2.Europeans were part of a much larger human community than the Native Americans. Europeans had already been exposed to Chinese pathogens from at least the 6th century AD. The high volume of trade in the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean over the next millennium meant that Eurasia was, from the perspective of many pathogens, a single community. Diseases like the plague could travel from Asia to Europe more easily than a pathogen could travel up and down the Americas. This is in part because the East-West axis had more similar climatic conditions than the North-South axis. Eurasian trade also involved sailing vessels, which carried rodents. Rodents were some of the nastiest disease vectors, and plagues often originated in port towns because of these stowaways. For all of these reasons, 15th-century Europeans (and their ancestors) had experienced a wider variety of germs than had their American counterparts.

3.Population densities were much greater in Eurasia, and there were more Eurasian cities than American cities. Cities were unhealthy places where diseases could remain "endemic" in the human or rodent population. By some estimates, a disease like measles can only be sustained in cities with a population over 500,000. In the Americas, only Tenochtitlan approached this. American pathogens might die out due to lack of "reservoirs." For example, there was at least one plague of American origins that killed from 7-17 million Mexicans in the 16th century. After killing 80% of the native population, the disease simply disappeared. We actually have very little idea what this disease was, or if it could appear again.


4.The long history of epidemics, plus the presence of disease reservoirs in European urban communities, did mean that natural selection on disease resistance was a larger factor in Europe than in the Americas. Europeans had better immunity to most communicable pathogens than Americans (see @MasonWheeler's excellent answer), which also made them "better" disease vectors.
