Can we get a thread for photos of soldiers or people during wartime (without depicting actual fighting) here. Always liked seeing people just kinda hang out and possibly even have fun during such times
same pic as before but with no colour
What would you say is the saddest point/event in history? What do you say is the biggest thing lost?

Fall of Constantinople without a doubt
The beginning of existence itself.
Obviously the Holocaust

Why do people act like IQ tests are some universal and undeniable way to measure intelligence? Intelligent tests are always skewed (despite the better efforts of the test makers to make them more universal) towards the culture that made them. For example Alfred Binet made an intelligence test, which was then put into use in the U.S. but before it could be used it had to be modified so that it could accurately describe an Americans intelligence, hence the Stanford-Binet test.
I don't think IQ tests are taken very seriously anymore. The only people who seem to bring them up are racially motivated or teenagers trying to brag.

I have absolutely no idea about what was happening in Persia and Central Asia post Islamic Conquests besides what Paradox games have taught me.
the Teutonic Knights or the Knights Templar?
Nobody outside of the Balkans and Germany knows what the Teutonic Knights were
Almost every depiction of the Crusades was the aesthetics of the Knights Templar. Not to mention the millions of conspiracy theories surrounding them, plus video games and the like.

Why do Stormfags think that that Indo-Aryans created a caste system to avoid mixing with the native population in India and elsewhere? It's obvious that the point of it was to ensure a high rank in society for their descendants, not to segregate themselves from the rest of the population. Ancient Indo-Europeans practiced exogamy with women from other tribes very early on, after all.
Thoughts, /his/?

>ensure a high rank in society for their descendants
So basically to segregate themselves from the lesser men in other societies.
Right.
I think Reddit is more your speed.

You're talking about people who literally cite Adolf Hitler as a historian. Who cares what they think our why.
>>2272222
Read the entire post, retard. They still took women from other tribes, and ancient India was no exception, because they were only interested in the continuation of their lineage rather than purity of blood.
Prove me wrong (you can't)
Was Napoleon really a brilliant military commander on the level of Hannibal, Alexander, Ghengis Khan etc.

Frederick the Great
>Made an eastern european shithole into a great power
>defeated the primary german power at the time with a population of 2 million
>fought off France, Austria, and Russia with only the eternal anglo as an ally
>secular, enlightened based dude who modernized Prussia
But he lost
>>2271845
This is the meme version of the 7 years war. Frederick was saved by luck.
>Queen of Russia dies and a fanboy of Frederick takes throne and pulls out of war
>France gets bogged down helping Spain against Portugal
>Austria is Austria and can't beat Prussia alone
>Austria and France are tired and basically just think 'Fuck it' and let Prussia have Silesia
Frederick is a fucking meme.
