Alright, but how would you suggest I structure it? One thread per week, or a single ongoing thread that has to be bumped but has all the information in one place?

Is it really accepted, though? Seem's it's more accepted by pseudo-intellectual normies rather than academic authorities.

All my History professors have literally shitted on that book whenever its brought up....

>>2314672

But this book is a laughingstock in academia.

It was killed by the combination of outside forces and Hungarians being short sighted imbeciles.

Contrary to popular belief it seems that if the allies had accepted the peace from Karl the empire would have federated and survived.

It seems that the fragments really fought to the end and that even the slavs would have been happy to have a triparte kingdom and remain a great power with the Austrians and Hungarians united.

At the peace conference everyone but Italy thought they would keep AH together but then realized it was too late. Which made things hard because AH industrialized with empire in mind.

Vienna was a center of trade and commerce and had all the rail lines.

Bohemia had some factories but not enough farms.

Hungary had many farms but little industry.

Croatia had all the ports and maritime trade.

etc etc.

when they all declared independence there was no fair way to give each country the ability to work independently from the other.

Hitler asserts in mein kampf that Germans were the only people capable of actually ruling an empire and by giving the slavs power had thus hurt the administrative capabilities of the emprie and also just left the slavs wanting more power.

Its true that the administration in AH was big and full of waste. In the Slavic areas it political trouble makers were usually bribed with high paying beaurocratic jobs that were created just to get rid of political problems.

Personally I think if the allies had made peace it would have stayed together and for everyone's benefit to work against the Bolsheviks that would later destroy the area.

Italy blocked that action though because it wanted to grab as much land as possible.

How chaotic was the period of the early Republic for the average peasant in the countryside? Did things continue much as they had in the past or were they pretty fucked?

I'm more or less an agnostic from a Muslim background, but have made studying Islamic history and theology a major hobby out of pure academic interest rather than faith.

Yale has an awesome history Program over here in the states, so any Books published out of their name are bound to be legit. They also have a variety of textbooks you can find on amazon, a simple google search of Yale history text books should help you out.

The reason i say text books is because they are very general and tend to be more informative instead of bias.

Things to know about U.S History that will probably interest you.

>The Prohibition
>Civil War
>The Industrial Revolution and rise of immigration to the States
>Anything on the Western Frontier and of the "old west"


Some things you should take into consideration.

Depending on where you're from, especially if you're from the UK, you'll find topics on the Revolution to be probably a bit obscure from what you may know.

American Patriotism is stoopid!! Like even for Our greatest Historians over here, they are still biased towards America Being the best place ever. So any books you read about souly the American Revolution, or the U.S's greatest hits like WW2, War of 1812, American Development and all that stuff that has to do with America growing, it's gona sound like the U.S is the best.

If you want to take a break from reading, and watch some short movies, the History Channel is usually not a good place to start. Though entertaining, some of it is bs and sounds like America is just gloating again.

You'll find that A lot of the U.S History has been influenced y foreign nations, so where ever you're from I'm sure you'll feel proud at one point to read up on the History.

Unless you're Irish.

Is this b8?

If it's stupid and it works, it's not stupid.

That's really not what he meant.

Read the world as will and representation before talking out of your ass.
He litterally says that every man could say and must say "The world is my will".

>>2323540
Yeah, thanks, my wikipeducated friend, but I have read it, and to say that the universe is anyone's personal will is an embarrassingly retarded mischaracterization of what Schopenhauer says in that damn book. You're an idiot.

Don't see why bongs should have to die for non-countries desu

It was a combination. Lee basically GOAT, and nearly every general the Union threw at him was absolutely fucking retarded. McClellan especially.

>has an army of 100,000 well armed men and a shit ton of artillery
>facing army of 35,000 men weilding paper clips and sharpened sporks
>Pinkerton says he's facing 80,000 U.S. Marines with ar-15s
>automatically assumes Pinkerton is being conservative and rounds to 150,000 Hindu gods of war and all the beasts of the land and the fishes of the sea

Burnside

>Lee cuts him off, slaughters him
>takes 20,000 casualties

Always feel bad for McClellan, People called him the Young Napoleon till the Civil War broke out. Thought he was gonna be a genius. Ended up choking and going down in history as a scared fuck up.

they're all wrong, read Friedman

Read Marx

>>2322889
Good for a laugh, I suppose.

It's funny because true, Marxist socialism is something that exclusively happened in poor, backwards countries.

>>2322605
I don't know if there's a single country that went from feudalism to socialism.

>inb4 dumdums saying "Russia"
Russian feudalism wasn't a thing for 60 years by the time revolution happened.

>>2322605
The "marxist" interpretation of history is more of a stance taken by Marxist-Leninists.

Marx's theories are not deterministic, rather he was more focused on how the dynamics and dialectical nature of class struggle shapes and changes societies.
