Title speaks for itself, post factoids or ask questions regarding the most important time periods of African history.
Its my specialty so I don't mind answering questions.
Pic related are Kiffian reconstructions found in Niger and Libya and part of a more extensive indigenous North African population.
fun fact: before the expansion of Middle Eastern livestock people similar to Kiffians penned and raised barbary sheep

Oldest representation of psilocybin mushrooms found in what is now the Sahara and estimated at 9k years old
1k years older than the oldest known mummified remains in Egypt was found Uan Muhuggiag Southwest Libya
Tashwinat Mummy aka the black mummy by the Italian archaeologist who found him
Why was it called the GDR and not the DDR?
Because in English the term for the central European state is Germany, not Deutschland.

USS Indianapolis...sunk by a Japanese torpedo. 900 men went into the water...317 were rescued. The rest were eaten by sharks.

Why do we give so many of our ships such boring names? Naming them after presidents and pioneer folk heroes is pretty cool, but cities and states? Boring as fuck. And I'm still waiting on the USS Paul Bunyan and USS Jackalope.
fuckin' right!!!
>>2063891
Its the reverse for me.
I think states and cities are a way better naming scheme than political figures. That type of shit is how we ended up with the USS Gabriel Giffords.

Is the US an inverted totalitarian state?
From wiki:
In Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt by Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco, inverted totalitarianism is described as a system where corporations have corrupted and subverted democracy and where economics trumps politics.
This is in contrast with a true totalitarian state like nazi Germany or the USSR, where the state has coopted the various industries and the economy of the state exists to serve state policies.
>>2063729
Totalitarian is a meme anyway as all states are total save when their power is checked by another state. The US just happens to be ruled by a less centralized bureaucracy than other nations like the USSR. The only possible check on a total bureaucracy is democratic mechanisms, which the US obviously doesn't have much of.
So would you say there is no difference in state power over the industries between, say, nazi Germany and modern new Zealand? I fail to see how "totalitarian" is a meme label
>>2063779
The label totalitarian typically refers to state power generally, no idea what the reasoning behind the emphasis on economic regulation is.
Still a meme though as there's also a lot inbetween Nazi Germany and New Zealand and there's no definite point between them where an economy can be objectively labeled totalitarian. The term can only serve to mean "anything I don't like."

Hamilton knew how to run a country.
Would his "perpetual revolution" involve using the USSR to takr over the world or couping and shit stirring in an extremely Jewish way? Would he remain a homosex degenerate like Lenin or denounce it as bourgeoise individualism? Would the workers actually engage in government as they were supposed to or would they still be represented by party officials?
>>2062991
Far less repression than under Stalin, but potentially more macro fuckups caused by his insistence on radical economic change
>>2063036
>his insistence on radical economic change
Can you elaborate on this? Stalin's 5 year plans were pretty damn radical, killing shit tonnnes of Ukies, what did Trot plan to do?

Why did people refer to the Germans as "The Hun" in WW1?
Allied/Entente propaganda compared them to the Huns due to their ravaging of Europe.

Wilhelm said they should be as fierce as the Huns in putting down the boxer rebellion, so yet agains Wilhelm's autism fucking him over
