Probably in that or in light sandals, although greaves were common. It's not really that easy to stab someone in the foot when you're in a chaotic mess of men jostling each other and the other guy has a shield in between your arm and his foot, and is trying to stick you with his own spear.

People have gone barefoot throughout most of human existence. Even Napoleonic troops occasionally went without shoes if they lost them.

>>2635414
Greece is a stony country. I don't think hoplites would stand marching whole day barefoot on little rocks. Maybe Spartans, these guys were masos.

You sound developmentally challenged.

Also why weren't there very many French people that moved to the US after independence?

>>2635313
Because Germans and English are by nature liberal cucks (protestants) who abandon tradition and pride for quick pleasures. The bastardization that is the English language is a metaphor for the spirit of the english

>>2635313
Many German Americans gave up their traditions and things like using the German language by the time WW1 started, when suddenly the Germans were the bad guys

Bumping for interest. Seemd like the last true Roman.

I would too like to know.

>Seemd like the last true Roman.

He wasn't really a traditional Roman, since he favored Greek over Roman gods.

He also was a Neoplatonist and grew a beard. Obviously was larping as a Greek.

Quite pitiful how short his reign was and how quickly the Roman religion was extinguished in Rome.

Wikipedia's article on Germania has had this paragraph posted for a while with no source. Can anyone find out where this information originated?

>Caesar described the cultural differences between the Germanic tribesmen, the Romans, and the Gauls. He said that the Gauls, although warlike, could be civilized, but the Germanic tribesmen were far more savage and were a threat to Roman Gaul and so had to be conquered. His accounts of barbaric northern tribes could be described as an expression of the superiority of Rome, including Roman Gaul.

Seneca,Of Anger, Book 3, Chapter 26(weird i thougt it was 24)
The colour of an Æthiop is not remarkable among this own people, nor is any man in Germany ashamed of red hair rolled into a knot.

Strabo, Geography, Book 7, Chapter 1
Now the parts beyond the Rhenus, immediately after the country of the Celti, slope towards the east and are occupied by the Germans, who, though they vary slightly from the Celtic stock in that they are wilder, taller, and have yellower hair, are in all other respects similar, for in build, habits, and modes of life they are such as I have said9 the Celti are. And I also think that it was for this reason that the Romans assigned to them the name “Germani,” as though they wished to indicate thereby that they were “genuine” Galatae, for in the language of the Romans “germani” means “genuine.”10 [3]

There's literally nothing wrong with oppression of women

>>2638066
No, Tolkien explicitly stated over and over again that he hated allegories and Lord of the Rings isn't an allegory for anything.

>>2638077
what if it's an allegory for how much he hates allegories?

>>2638077
Why would you need to say it over and over again unless there is a lot more to it?

Orson Scott Card never had to insist repeatedly that Ender's Game wasn't allegory for the Nigerian Civil War.

Definitely for Aquinas. He sucked HUGE Aristotle cock.

But Augustine abandoned neoplatonism later.

More or less.

and Normans.

>implying they won't both be erased by Urdu speakers in a generation

>>2637679
Unless the government force the people to speak Urdu that sounds very unlikely.

Jews are petty and envious people. They couldn't stomach a Greek conquering all those peoples that had enslaved them.

>>2637623
>>2637627
He is. Read the Book of Daniel, you retards.

>>2637623
But he is. Except that protestants chopped out the book where he is mentioned.

Catholic, Orthodox, Coptic and the rest of the oriental Christian churches have the books where Alexander, and even the Romans, are mentioned, among many other things.

Bitch got what she deserved

I've never met a happy atheist, and her life exemplifies the fact that atheists are just born to piss in other people's cereal for some reason. Probably self loathing.

>>2637457
I have no issue with athiest although I myself would be more of an agnostic, although I am always open to faith.
I like the idea of not being forced to be religious in the same way I don't think it should be banned.

Did she REALLY deserve her fate, though? She was pretty vilified anyways.

>>2637470

No one forced anyone to be religious though. The US govt at most historically endorsed a nebulous, generic form of Christianity.

It's more like
>faith has played an important part in our society/culture for hundreds of years
>*autistic screeching*

And if you know the history behind her and AA, that's pretty damn close.

>>2637342
people who spill their pasta have no place in human history

Marco Polo probably.

Caesar, when Cateline got called out at a Senate meeting. The lad was crying and lashing out.

Religion sucks the dick of whoever is in power. It has always been like this, except now liberals are in power.

just look up the "good" emperors and you will see why it had to fail

Diocletian
>overthrow the tetrarchy because it doesn't work
>institute ridiculous economic reforms which centralised power and led to an overblown bureaucracy and the death of he weak economy
>put people in collectives and force them to work to save the economy
>cause the upperclas the seek refuge by the barbarians... by the fucking BARBARIANS
>fight against the death cult who seeks to overthrow your empire and fail
>after you crushed your own economy and failed to destroy or integrate the death cult, you decide to become a private citizen (with a giant palace) so you reinstitute the tetrarchy which never worked in the first place
>after the civil wars the reinstitution of the tetrarchy caused get ask for help with the trouble you caused
>say the new emperor that his problems are none of your business and that you will grow your cabbage watching him dealing with the problems you caused in the first place
>get rememberd as a good emperor with the only downside that you fought the death cult who seeked to overthrow your empire
