>tfw you'll never live in the timeline where Dr. Sun doesn't die of cancer in 1925
On the one hand, Sun Yat Sen really should have been President of china. He would have done a great job.
But on the other, I also like learning about the utter madness that was the Chinese Warlord Era. So I'm kinda conflicted on it.
Anyone know any good media about the warlord era tho? I want a better grasp of it than what I can learn on wikipedia, but I'm not spending money on a book unless I know it's good.
>>2643879
will give you a book list to look at. use bookzz or libgen to find

He was still pretty old and would have died by the end of WWII
What does exiled nobility even do?
When the French Nobility ran from the Revolution, when the Russian Nobility ran from their own revolution, what did they do in the countries they went to?
Where they still nobles? Did they just live off the charity of other nobles? Were they given power in the countries that still had nobles?
Norway's nobility also being example
>>2643053
Just because they were exiled doesn't mean they weren't still incredibly rich, some were given power and/or money by their host nation but most just bought a comfy townhouse in the city and spent their time reading books, going to the opera, theatre and parties, they were basically NEETs
For the French nobility, it depended on who they were, how much money they had overseas, whether or not they were active politically, and where they ended up fleeing to.
If you had your own money, or you were popular enough that someone (like wealthy family or friends or even royalty) would pay for your lodgings, then you just continued your existence in another country. Some of these nobles ended up going from place to place, basically leeching for a time until their benefactor told them they needed to leave.
Nobility who did not have their own significant source of money outside France and couldn't find patronage had to work. Women often began working as hatmakers, seamstresses, language teachers, dance tutors, or opened schools or boarding houses. Men worked as tailors, teachers and tutors, opened shops and restaurants, etc.
Exiled nobility from France basically created their own little "little France" pockets in areas of England and the rest of Europe.
In some areas, particularly Austria, Rome and Russia, counter-revolutionary sentiment was emboldened by the presence of exiled royalty (or rather, fled French royalty) who were building up armies of exiled French men along with soldiers from the European powers.
After a few years, most countries had tired of the presence of French emigres, particularly those who expected to be kept up by the government. Even the exiled royals ended up being downgraded to a contextually shabby old home, compared to previously being lodged in palaces and stately homes owned by European royalty. It didn't help that the shakeups of 1793-1814 radically changed Europe and made it occasionally politically unwise to house French emigres or royals.
The first ever /his/ general thread devoted purely to Zoroastrianism as a theology, philosophy, and as a historical foundation of empires. Feel free to ask and discuss anything related to Zoroastrianism as well as Pre-Islamic Iranian history.

Zoroastrianism is an interesting philosophical and theological position and is one of the oldest recorded monotheistic (kind of) religions. It teaches the core tenets of "good thoughts, good words, good deeds" with the stipulation that in order to do a "good" thing you must first have knowledge of the variables and environment involved with the said decision - enforcing a theological precedent of wisdom and patience which some historians have linked to the scientific and political boom found within the Persian Empire. The current theory of Zoroastrian founding is that the "Proto-indo-europeans" which traveled out of Europe and through northern india (creating/inspiring the rigveda) eventually traveled to the lands between modern day Iran and Turkey - this explains some similarities between architecture and more importantly as to why in Zoroastrian prayers "Pure" that is bastardized words from the "Sanskrit" language can be found within their liturgy.
Welcome and Enjoy.

Fire Jew spotted.

Zoroastrianism influenced many later religions, from Manicheaism to Judaism and Christianity. It is to Zoroaster that the Christians can find the source of their Satan as an active, malevolent rival to God.
>>2642543
Nah.
Let's put an end to this once and for all: Which kind of government is objectively the best?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_model
Theodemocracy
Absolute Monarchy. No room for the degenerates to have a voice in government and no chance of them ever getting into it. One man, trained from birth to rule; one voice; one nation. Beautiful.

What was the worst thing or event ever happened to our world?
>>2640413
The Great Flush of 1906.All those innocent babies, gone like they never existed.

Chernobyl was pretty shit. Destroyed public faith in the best method of power production.
Honestly though probably either WW1 or 2.

Why does Turkey cause such a uniquely large amount of butthurt here? Is it because of the Ottoman Empire?

Because half of us our Byzanboos, me included.
Fuck the Turks and their meme empire
You suddenly appear, exactly as you are right now, in the Roman forum in 150AD. Realistically, what do you do?
Also, your Latin is limited to whatever you currently know
>>2639082
I'm naked... so get thrown out?
>>2639082
Once someone figures out that you basically know nothing of the world at that time you're gonna be enslaved and get thrown into the arena/onto the latifundia/into the whorehouse depending on your physical characteristics.
Unless you know the Greek classics in which case you could be a tutor.

^^^ I should note that for the last thirty or forty years, there are no "uncontacted" tribes. Invariably when pics of some "uncontacted" tribe gets circulated you can go to any anth department in the country and get a rundown on what linguistic and culture family they're from, isolated as they may be.
Just about every single one of these groups DID have contact with the colonial/church forces but the ethnocides in the Rubber Boom generally pushed them as deep into the interior as they could get because fuck a whole bunch of waking up to see your river choked with corpses or every man in the village missing limbs for not collecting rubber (if they were lucky enough to get a limb hacked off rather than shot on the spot).
Who is your favorite military leader and why /his/?
-Excellent tactician, master of tanks' operations
-Did so much with so little
-Managed to turn the tide in a front where things had gone bad from the beginning
-Ignored the Commando Order
-His final was tragic

There are some of monks drawings or something that were actually funny, one was talking about the sleeping bird or something funny as hell. probably sounds like nonsense but if you've got it downloaded you prolly know what im talking about it
Does black people twitter count?
Why can't Africa just follow the developmental model that Asian Tigers did? It's worked well for Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea, Hong Kong, China, even Vietnam.

Guns, Germs, and Steel.
Then the West would support them in the same way? Forgive their debt, allow them to nationalize industries, enact protectionist measures, and so on?

Rwanda is doing it, it helps because the genocide really blew off a lot of later hurdles nations face in the process of development.
Ethiopia is doing better but hopefully Oromo will get better representative power.
Madagascar is once again a clothing manufacturing hub, hope it improves and expands.
