How come the Iroquois were the only Native Americans to have something close to a nation or empire? Why didn't other Natives try to do the same?
I'm assuming you're excluding Native South and Mesoamericans

OP is American so obviously has a very limited perspective of history.
>>2582505
Yeah I'm talking purely North Americans
I don't get it. Isn't Jesus also part of the Father? How can a part of himself be greater than himself?
>>2582424
Jesus's "power" is equal to that of God, the 3 parts are seperate but also one,
>>2582424
Hmm maybe because jesus was just a man? Poor arius

What race was responsible for building one of the most complex super structures of the ancient world? Using in depth mathematics and precise measurement. Today, eygypt is an Arab country with no ties to its past but what is its racial past? Were they Africans or middle eastern? If there is no definite answer, what is the most widely accepted theory?
>>2582319
Egyptian race but closely related to West Asians and unrelated to Sub-Saharan Africans.
they were proto-turanian
arabs genocided literally LITERALLY every one of them and filled the land up with pure bedouins from yemen, just as they did to persia, the levant, north africa; none of those places have ANY pre-arab blood left.
Probably a mix between middle easterners and North Africans, so kinda close to Arabs probably?
There were a lot of nubians who were pretty dark as well as Syrians who are portrayed as more white
Reminder that Constantinople would had been a major Christian city today were it not for the Perfidious Albion
France instigated the conflict. Britain just joined in to build an alliance with France and limit Russia.
Furthermore, Britain then supported Greece against the turks in 1919 to take constantinople, only the Greeks fucked it up.
Are talking about the Crimean War or what?
What is Constantinople worth? Fucking nothing.

Over 130 million people have been killed in state authorized purges by a long line of atheistic leaders: 72 million people killed in China, 40 million in the former USSR, Hitler 15 million, 2 million in North Korea, 2 million in Cambodia, 1.7 million in Africa, 1.5 million in Afghanistan, 1 million in Vietnam, 150 thousand in Latin America by leaders such as Mao, Stalin, the Cambodian communist leader Pol Pot, the Albanian communist leader Enver Hoxha, Prime minister of Cuba Fidel Castro, Romanian president Nicolae Ceausescu, Kim Jong-il
… On and on the list goes.
It is understandable that atheists are not at all comfortable with these facts of modern history. They shy away from such conclusions and tell us that the evils done by such leaders were, in fact, merely secondary to their atheism, and not because of it. In other words, the fact that these leaders happened to be atheists had little to do with the evils that they perpetrated upon the church going. This is the false and deceitful claim that Richard Dawkins champions. It is an argument without any basis or grounding in history but is rather pure atheistic fictional fundamentalism.
Atheistic philosopher Nietzsche was the first to say that God is dead and not long after that a bloodbath ensued because in a humanist system there is no law above man and no one to be ultimately accountable to. As one man put it: “In the 18th century, the Bible was killed; in the 19th century, God was killed; in the 20th century, man was killed.”
>>2580702
Hitler, Mao, and Stalin had religions. Hitler's religion was called National Socialism. Mao and Stalin's religion was called Communism.
Hitler wasn't an atheist
Atheist dictators killed more people in the 1st half of 20th century than all of the world's wars throughout history combined - hundreds of millions - a mountain of bodies and a river of blood!
North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un considers religion an opiate of the people – and what he means by this is a chemical sleep inducing, dull numbing narcotic; of course this is not an original thought for Kim because he is the by-product of a savage barbarous inhuman atheistic system that brutally murdered 130 million people in the name of extracting this so-called narcotic from people by beating them to death and smashing their skulls against concrete walls. It was Karl Marx that helped Kim to realise that God was the opiate of the masses, for Marx, the solution was simple - religion had to be eradicated so that the creation of the new man and the new utopia, freed from the shackles of God and religion, could emerge, leading to the liberation of man and the advancement of civilisation, and 130 million slaughters later the only thing that emerged was a mass grave and a dictator that hated God and controlled his own people like worthless puppets that had no freedom of speech and no recourse to even raise that as an issue. Kim, not wanting to be out-staged has decreed in his own little dictatorship of human robots that owning a Bible is grounds for execution or a very long holiday in one of his own body-breaking, soul-destroying labour camps. In fact, North Korea’s persecution of Christians knows no equal, and being a Christian there is considered one of the worst crimes possible.

What went so right /his/? Hard to believe that some random horse fuckers overthrew their masters and became kings of the world. I think if the empire wasn't so short lived, we'd all be speaking Persian right now.
>banning of slavery
Acktually, there's records indicating the house of the emperor owned slaves.
>first human rights charter
The Cyrus Cylinder has nothing to do with human rights.
>professional army that conquered the strongest powers
Except for Athens and Macedon.
>first real empire
Akkadia, then Assyria
>loved by Greeks
Except for Athens and Macedon.
I'm sorry, but I love nitpicking.

>Acktually, there's records indicating the house of the emperor owned slaves.
True. But it wasn't as widely practiced compared to other states. You see stories of Cyrus and various kings condemning slavery so it's still notable
>The Cyrus Cylinder has nothing to do with human rights.
It was the first time the conquerors didn't impose their religion and culture on the conquered. People were free to believe what they want and as indicated by the Satrapy system, rule on their own accord.
>Except for Athens and Macedon.
They weren't powers like Egypt, Assyria and Babylon.
>Akkadia, then Assyria
It was the first global power.
>Except for Athens and Macedon.
They were heavily influenced by the Persians. Herodotus and several good things to say about them.
>>2580120
44%!?
Population estimates from 2500 years ago? I don't trust population estimates from 100 years ago.
Don't know enough about the Achievements to question their achievements though
So were they raped by Ancient Greeks or were the ancient central asian Aryans literally Aryan?
>>2580115
clearly the greek theory is very unlikely, considering they look nothing like greeks.
Aryans are ancient north indians and iranians
it is a very diverse place
Why do they claim to be such a great mix of culture when vast majority comes just from the British culture?

When did the Mexican National Identity change from one based on association with Iberia/Spain to one based on LARPing as Aztecs?
I've heard it was the indigenismo movement that pioneered this in the 1960s.
>>2570683
It was when they figured out that they can get more gibs if they didn't identify as "white", so yeah, the 60s.
>>2570683
Because the Spaniards only contributed to their identity, whereas they are Mexicans.
Saying they LARP as Aztecs is like saying americans are British people who LARP as Americans.
>>2570683
Consider that in mexico indigenous culture makes up the base of the country's culture. It's like the vanilla ice cream to the toppings which is hispanic (spanish) culture. If anything they were larping as spaniards. It's good to see them embracing more their ancestors and where they come from.
i come to the conclusion that the underlying insecurity among leftists is ambition
they simply lack it, they never inspire to be great, they never inspire to be a somebody
maybe the don't have the ability, maybe they are simply mediocre...mediocre in intelligence, mediocre in life in general
that's why their ideology is the ultimate cuck...
a real man is an individual, with ambition and the ability to change the world
They could of been this man....they could of been the next Elon Musk, or Steve Jobs....
but no they decided to be fucking losers..and thats what they will remain, fucking losers
marxist are just fucking lame in general

>Nazi Germany: "Japan my son, the year is 1941 and you can either invade the USSR creating up a second front and ensuring our victory in the war or attack a neutral superpower that will certainly be the end of both of us if enters the war, which do you pick?
>A little while later (pic related)
One question. Why?
meant to post this. oh well ill try again another time
>>2584246
Because
A) It wouldn't ensure anyone's victory, as the ability of Japan to effectively hurt the USSR was almost nil, especially after the oil embargo.
B) Japan, for some reason that is hard to fathom, wanted to pursue its own national interests rather than being a vehicle for the pursuit of German ones, and was not entirely interested in owning acres of frozen tundra with no oil (that they knew about at the time and was their major strategic bottleneck).
C) War with the U.S. would primarily be using naval and air assets, which were in relatively good shape. Opening up a second land war while you've already got a stalemate in China on your hands stretches the army too thin while your navy boys sit around and fuck each other in the ass.
