Living conditions & wages for the working Joe were somewhat better than in most neigbouring countries (Denmark, Austria-Hungary, Russia). In terms of science and industry Germany was at the forefront of the European chemical & pharmaceuticals industry, since they pretty much managed to invent chemical synthesis of medicines (aspirin) and also had huge dye-manufacturing/petro chemicals sectors located in industrial hotspots (primarily Ruhr and Upper Silesia). The Eastern Areas of Germany (Mecklenburg, Pomerania, East & West Prussia, Posen) were generally more rural whilst the West (Ruhr, Lower Saxony, Saar) thrived on industry.

In what ways could Germany have been considered backward at the time? Certainly in some respects, like giving workers healthcare, they appear positively progressive.

Because they're rich.

Opposing forces

It has been a long standing evolutionary question why the human pelvis has not grown wider over the years.

The head of a human baby is large compared with other primates, meaning animals such as chimps can give birth relatively easily.

The researchers devised a mathematical model using data from the World Health Organization and other large birth studies.

They found opposing evolutionary forces in their theoretical study.

One is a trend towards larger newborns, which are more healthy.

However, if they grow too large, they get stuck during labour, which historically would have proved disastrous for mother and baby, and their genes would not be passed on.

"One side of this selective force - namely the trend towards smaller babies - has vanished due to Caesarean sections," said Dr Mitteroecker.

"Our intent is not to criticise medical intervention," he said. "But it's had an evolutionary effect. "

Future trends

The researchers estimated that the global rate of cases where the baby could not fit through the maternal birth canal was 3%, or 30 in 1,000 births.

Over the past 50 or 60 years, this rate has increased to about 3.3-3.6%, so up to 36 in 1,000 births.

That is about a 10-20% increase of the original rate, due to the evolutionary effect.

"The pressing question is what's going to happen in the future?" Dr Mitteroecker said.

"I expect that this evolutionary trend will continue but perhaps only slightly and slowly.

"There are limits to that. So I don't expect that one day the majority of children will have to be born by [Caesarean] sections."

The research is published in the journal, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Commenting on the study, Daghni Rajasingam, a consultant obstetrician and a spokesman for the Royal College of Obstetricians, said other factors, such as diabetes and obesity, are having an impact on the number of caesarean sections.

"I think what is important to take into the [question of] evolution is that things like diabetes are much more common at a younger age so we see many more women of reproductive age who have diabetes," she said.

"That has consequences as to whether or not they may need a caesarean section.

"In addition, the rates of obesity are increasing so more and more women of reproductive age have a higher body mass index and this again has an impact on caesarean section rates."

Pascal Wager assumes that only Christfaggotry is right.

If you take into account other religions then Pascal's Wager turns into Pascal's Russian Roulette.

Assumes that only one is correct. And since Blaise Pascal is from a Christian background, then Christianity it was by defaut.

But what if you believed in Jebus and all of the sudden, you go to Norse Hel instead because you're unheroic as fuck. Sucks right?

Nope. The poorest Americans are the fattest. It's the fact that McDonald's is cheaper than buying vegetables and other healthy food. Also if you're working long hours and raising kids, you want to avoid any extra work possible, aka cooking

Those other European countries wouldn't have had the tens of thousands of Indian allies--a force larger than both the standing armies of the US and UK at war's start--equipped by the crown and supported by the Indian Department. Veterans of five decades of Indian Wars and, for the most part, residing not in Canada but in the United States from the Great Lakes to the Mississippi.

>The employment of Indian allies by the British crown during the War of 1812 was the single most important factor in the successful defence of Upper Canada.

No, but a belief in "conservatism" and that the past was better generally does. If you want to make something great again then it means it's fucked now, and empires and civilizations only get one shot before the power compass shifts towards some other place.

Depends what you mean by white.

Most accounts seem to describe them as fair haired and red haired.
I think I saw one account of grey eyes, a chinese account of yellow eyes which could've meant hazel eyes.
Iranians can have those kinds of eyes though.
