Why were and are Asians historically so inclined to totalitarianism as opposed to Africans who are more individualistic?
Why do they like to abdicate their free will and freedom to a more powerful individual and become a hivemind?
>>2612228
What the actual fuck are you talking about?
Africa has always had dictators

You can't have Confucian filial piety if you don't know who your father is.
>>2612232
Do you even fucking know what totalitarianism is, you god damn idiot? It's not the same thing as a dictatorship.
In totalitarianism the government controls everything and they even want to control your behavior and thoughts and everything that is different gets eradicated. There were maybe only 5-10 such regimes in history. North Korea is just a really good modern example.
Would Hitler have won the war if he was at least 6'1 in height?
is that up to scale?
>>2612191
how would this have changed anything???
>>2612207
maybe he would not have invaded the USSR to compensate for his lack of height
What's a good book to learn about Sardinian history and culture (especially about how they did warfare)?
>>2612149
All you need to know is that they lost.
>>2612149
"L'alba dei Nuraghi" by Giovanni Ugas if you understand Italian, but it lacks some of the most recent developments.
The archaeology of Nuragic Sardinia by Gary Webster (2015) is ideal since it's both in English and up to date.

From what I know the Romans and other invading civilizations never got in
No. They were finished by this point. And no, last resistance in Norway or the Alps wouldn't have made any difference.

What if the USSR allied with Japan in WW2?
things would be different
>>2611726
The Axis could have conquered the world if they included the USSR.
The USSR was pretty much fascist anyway, no matter what they said.
What a bunch of retards.

What makes Alcohol as or more degenerate than smoking tobacco or weed?

1. Destroyed an industry that produced a lot of taxes and gave labor to a lot of people, thus creating hobos that could start a revolution for lack of jobs.
2. Destroyed the working man's means of handling his pathetic life via means of self intoxication, thus not planning revolutions to change it.
3. Made it very obvious that the state enforces the individual to live this or that way, igniting a passion in many thinkers to start a revolution to change that.
Basically its a big wonder why americans didn't take up arms against the government at that point.
Would it be possible for a state to have a military-like structure that ecompasses all of its society?
What's the closest state in modern history to that?
Switzerland does it in a pretty comfy way.
Every adult male has to maintain a rifle and I believe they also have mandatory conscription.
We are all if us cursed, for not being born Swiss.
I hope not. Having experienced military structure, having it applied to all of society sounds terrible. Hurry up and wait etc.
>>2611398
No. Sparta and Prussia were run by warrior elites that survived off peasant labor.
The closest you can get to that is a hunter gatherer society where all fit men serves as "warriors" because there's no distinction between being a warrior and belonging to the tribe.
>What's the closest state in modern history to that?
Paraguay.
>Oldest actual civilizations in Europe were built in Eastern to Southern Europe
>None by Western Europe or Northern Europe
No wonder really. Agriculture and civilization slowly spread from the middle east and reached the most distant parts of Europe last. Not to mention those regions are much colder with only one harvest a year, making agriculture harder and less attractive in the first place. There were still hunter-gatherers in Fennoscandia less than a thousand years ago.

Meds improved culturally, Nords genetically.
At least we have Corded Ware culture
considering the whole reason for their attack was the fear of an US invasion to stop their invasion of occupation of European colonies,
But was it a legit threat or where the Jap just paranoid as usual?
>>2611287
yes

No.

I don't know
How come the oldest actual civilizations were formed by the populations descended from those who left Africa? While the ones in Africa lagged behind throughout the many years (Egypt and Nubia having Eurasian ancestry)?
>>2611286
They left because Africa was a shitty place to stay. Egypt and Nubia were lucky to have the Nile as their main water source as well as keep in close promiscuity with nearby civilizations. Genetics also have a play but it's really a combined number of reasons. Also, Ethiopia exists.
>>2611295
>Ethiopia
Eurasian blood.
>>2611320
No.
>>2611286
The formation of agriculture aligns with severe dry periods forcing populations to migrate to water sources and depending on riparian grass and other plant species.
The Sahara is the basis of African Agricultural domestication, that occurred at a different time after Younger Dryas that spurred Eurasian and American crop relations that formed the cultigens we know today.
It occurred about 5-7k years later after the end of the Neolithic Subpluvial from whence pearl Millet, sorghum, rice, Bambara bean, cow pea, pigeon pea, finger Millet, ensete and a host of other cultigens arose.
This of course was also after cattle both local species and Eurasian species formed creating a cattle based agro-pastoralist society connected to cattle cults one of which being found near the Sudanese-Egyptian border Nabta Playa. This created socio-cultural environments that shifted away from just riverine towns and more so mixed use spaces utilizing the vast Sahelian grasslands
