You mean suffer FROM elitism, you fucking plebian.
It disgusts me that someone of my level has to share this website with lowlifes such as yourself.
I, for one, do not suffer from elitism.

The fact that she worked from secondary sources instead of archives disqualifies her.
Hey /his/! I just found this m1 helmet in my basement but I can't figure out what era it's from. I know it's not ww2 because of the chinstrap so I'm thinking Vietnam era. What do you guys think?

Never had it in all honesty because Byzantine history is kind of boring. WRE collapses, then it's 200 years of autistic arguing over monophysitism before they spend 800 years very slowly getting their shit pushed in by goat fucking desert barbarians and constantly calling on Western Europe to save them.
The WRE as a whole, even the final century, is more interesting to learn about.

The dismantling of the Ottoman Empire and the rise of Arab Nationalism is the biggest disaster of the 20th century.
While Arabs were kept under the turks, religious stability in the middle east was at a decent level. Jews, Muslims and Christians lived in relative peace. The first world war and the subsequent sykes-picot agreement led to borders being drawn that could never be agreed upon and has led to constant struggle in the middle east, be it between kurds and arabs or shia amd sunnis.
I think this is a fair interpretation.
So my question is, do you think there will ever be stable borders in the region, or will the conflicts simply continue until one dominates the other?

Christians had it worse than Blacks and Asians had it under European empires.

There has to be some kind of internal impetus to develop something other than yet another despotic state to keep them quiet
but unfortunately even if there were, they're currently engaged in a battle to the death with literal crazy people that execute hostages with detcord

borders were a lot less defined amd generally based on the local count's loyalty. the borders of counties were based on individual villages and rivers.

While it can be true in some philosophical way, but you need highly esoteric and truly elaborate cosmology to support it in purely physical sense.

>but you need highly esoteric and truly elaborate cosmology to support it in purely physical sense.
No you don't.
You need a Big Bang, after which the Universe keeps expanding until it reaches a point where it can no longer do so and so the Universe contracts once more into an infinitely dense point (the so-called 'Big Crunch').
The Big Bang occurs again, at this point.

>>2568816
You need hard determinism on top of all that for events to repeat itself or it would be just another universe with barely anything same.

Could it be that we don't know their names?
What were the names of the people who 'invented' agriculture?
Who knows what person had some small, yet very significant influence on how things turned out.
Not a bad list OP, but I think Einstein deserves a honorable mention
