How different would history have been if a European peasant living in the high middle ages stumbled upon a fully-functional M60 general-purpose machine gun with multiple crates of ammunition?
Nothing, it probably would have been jammed with Vietcong mud kek
>>2186138
How much ammo are we talking here? We could go through a lot of peasants and ammo before someone figured out what the fuck was going on...
>>2186165
Couldn't really settle on a number, so just assume a fuck ton.
What was the golden age of Europe?
19th century
people will say enlightenment, renaissance, Roman empire, and even retards will say crusades
but lets face it, Europe conquered the world in the 19th century, can't get higher than that.
Europe doesn't exist

Was Ivar the Boneless really a cripple? Latin records may have been mistranslated, as the latin "exos", meaning "boneless", was very similar to the latin "exosus", meaning hateful. What's your take on this, /his/?
>>2186060
Doesn't matter anymore.
Viking show made him a cripple and impotent. Everyone will remember him like that now.

What else is 'beinlausi' supposed to mean?

flexible is one theory, like made of rubber
Thread for the history of the Germanic group of ethnicities. Saxon, Norse, Goth, doesn't matter.
Religion, kingdoms, migrations, relations, victories and defeats, influence from and on others, arms and armor, arts and crafts, ask questions and I and certainly others will answer.

Aren't Celts Germanic?
>>2186016
lol, no.
it's just krauts that are celto-scandi-slav rapebabies
>>2186018
Well, the English are, like, 70% Celt.
It's just their language that's Germanic.
Or, at least, that's what I heard in some documentary.
Is it accurate to label the belief that men and women should have clearly defined roles in society as a right-wing ideology?
It depends upon what you mean though.
Because any citizen of a country regardless of gender or race has "clearly defined roles", e.g make money, pay taxes, don't break the law etc.
But if you mean, "Women should stay in the kitchen because wombs" then yes, obviously that would be right-wing, at least in my eyes.
>>2185958
Based purely on gender? You'd say it was a conservative viewpoint since traditionally women and men did have clear roles, but neither left nor right really in an economic sense.
Who was more responsible for the Japanese war crimes? Him or Tojo?
the man actually in charge of affairs of state of course
one can't expect a fancy hood ornament to have given the direction of the military's goals
all of them
Tojo most likely, but Hirohito seemed to be complicit with the events happening or at least was powerless to stop them

What the fuck was his problem?
>>2185677
At least he didn't download the same photo twice.
>>2185677
He was literally an ancient redditor.

What a fucking loser!
Why did they have to kill her, /his/?
because muh oppression
>>2185662
because she was bourgeois scum.
Do you think she would have given half a fuck about your peasant ass if you were brutally bayoneted ? get over her.
>Thinking about all the lost history because some asshole invaders decided to burn all the books/artifacts during a raid
>>2185646
>all the history lost to Chinese chimpouts from Confucius to Mao
>all the history lost because Injuns couldn't write and then had their culture suppressed/died en masse from disease
and, hopefully not the case
>all the history lost due to a massive data wipe because everything is digital now

>You will never read the Cypria
>You will never read the Aethiopis

Be grateful the Iliad and the Odyssey still exist
>>2185646
People don't burn books flames do.
What are some of the most common myths that even people on /his/ believe even though they're thoroughly debunked horseshit?
For me it has to be almost everything about Rasputin, from him cucking the queen (zero evidence for that) through having a 20 inch cock (complete hoax, including that dick in St. Petersburg) to surviving poisoning and shooting (myth started by his assassins to make him appear demonic, autopsy clearly proved he died of a gunshot).
Pic not related.

>Soviets and germans counted their casualties the same way
>>2185629
So a dead german and a dead commie arent the same?
Figured /his/ would be the best place to ask this question, since gangs and crime has been around since we started making rules to this shit.
A cop told me today that he was working in Chicago and remembered that every time a gang leader was arrested, within a few months or even weeks there would be a spike in violence as folks fought for control of the gang, and it has gotten to the point that most "gangs" are really just groups of 10-20 people living in the same neighborhood who get into it with other folk from the neighborhood, which increases the violence drastically.
How true is this? I mean we could look at the fucking Balkans and compare it to some of the situations in the ghettos of the world.

I mean the data speaks for itself. What else did you want from me? Leaders do it all the time. Look at Russia with the "communist" leaders. Power corrupts most people. There are exceptions though.
>>2185346
It's an honest question. If I asked /pol/, then I would get a bunch of meme answers. I want some real answers! Hitler tried to "Free" the white race but got fucked on both sides by the USSR and the allies, clearly the jews outsmarted the proud aryan once again.

They'd probably find kinship with us, much like how we find kinship with those Roman shitposters in the town of Pompeii.
What if the Ombos (Naqada) the followers of Set (Seth) untied the lands of Upper Egypt instead Nekhen (Hierakonpolis) followers of Horus?

Egypt would be chaotic evil-aligned, instead of lawful-good aligned. This would have led to Egypt putting more talent points into warfare techs, and favoring hammers over smiley faces, leading to a military victory.
