No. "natural" is just a spook word. Its also implying that its somehow a better way of life.

What is barbarism?

An insanely dangerous misunderstanding.

No. Just compare modern european secular architecture with modern african religious architecture for proof.

The cathedrals of capitalism look cool too occasionally.

builds character nu-male

Seat backs cause the back muscles to relax, and thereby place excessive pressure on the spine. They are the leading cause of back problems.

Engaging in unnecessary pain is the most nu-male way of manning yourself up.

At least joining the army gives you skills and builds your body physically, sitting on hard flooring is just unnecessary.

No. At least the Greeks could claim to be the continuation of the same Roman State, despite being culturally different.

Because they happened to be right about the 2007-2009 fiasco.

However, their fears about hyperinflation and whatnot have proved to be bunk, hence why they dropped in popularity.

I shouted out,
Who killed the Kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me

I did. Sorry about the whole thing, but he fucked my wife and a man's gotta get revenge for that.

SHYLOCK

To bait fish withal. If it will feed nothing else, it will feed my revenge. He hath disgraced me and hindered me half a million, laughed at my losses, mocked at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my bargains, cooled my friends, heated mine enemies—and what’s his reason? I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? Fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. If a Jew wrong a Christian, what is his humility? Revenge. If a Christian wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by Christian example? Why, revenge. The villainy you teach me I will execute—and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction.

Pretty average.

(((average merchant)))

Gunpowder weaponry pretty much started in the east and traveled westward with the Middle East building the first usage of it as we know it (then proceeded to use it to destroy the Byzantine Empire). Naturally the Europeans reverse engineered it with the first major usage of it being in the 100 year war.

handcannons (forerunners of firearms) weren't all that useful in the beginning. It couldn't pierce armor, bows had more range, crossbows were quicker, and it was a bitch to use (you didn't even have a way to aim the damn thing). In the meantime cannon was useful as fuck because you can smash through a castle easily so you don't have to wait in month long sieges, expand your troops on a suicide charge, or use awkward siege equipment that would not actually do anything.

>>2653967
This basically.

It started being used in the 1300s in Europe and gradually got better over time.

>>2654029
and keep in mind that it isn't the firearms themselves that made the Euros have the advantage over the world.

It was their mass-production that allowed them to pump out mass numbers of them and their ammo that allowed it to happen.

Catholics, Italians, Jews, Asians, Slavic peoples and the Irish are bad. That's about their entire platform.

Got to remember, Americans fucking hated Catholics since before they were a country. Even John F Kennedy was given some trouble by people thinking he was going to take orders from the Pope.

They were REEEing at everybody from Eastern Europe, not just Slavs.

Without them the Wehrmacht would have been thrown out pretty quick?

Soviet combat doctrine was beyond shit-tier. An enormous amount of their initial force was in a broad, inflexible (due to lack of organic transport) line running more or less from Memel to Lvov. The Germans would break through at a point somewhere, rapidly maneuver to the side, and cut off entire army groups, to be shot to ribbions now that their rear were exposed and weren't getting food and bullets anymore. Within the first few weeks, the Soviets sustained roughly 3 million casualties. This in turn made things really dicey for them ,because despite the fact that new reserves were being brought up all the time, they often couldn't present a coherent battle line, and the Germans were still attacking, so troops would get to somewhere only to find out that there's a glaring hole somewhere due to not having enough men on the spot and everything being in a general state of confusion, which lead to more encirclements and more mass causalities.

Eventually the offensive burned itself out, but it wasn't born out of any plan by STAVKA, the attack just ran out of steam before the Soviets ran out of material resources and iwll to fight.

Cyrus, no question. Alexander beat his "conquer shit" high score, but lost on the all-important actually ruling your empire bit.

I need Christ
That's the only thing I know
I really can't breath right
I'm strangled by animosity from by own people
Lately it's hard to be nice
My face is frowned up everywhere I go
And I can't sleep nights
I'm in my ride tryin to find my foes (Why You Be Trippin Z-ro?)

Already boy, I'm from Texas boy
With a fat gat to drop a nigga in seconds boy
