Which city was worse
NYC in the late 70s
Miami in the Early 80s
Or
LA in the early 90s?
Why do American cities degrade to 3rd world conditions? Detroit and other Midwest cities are going through it now.
I'm personally biased, but 70's NYC was the worst
90's LA was kinda the heyday of the whole "dope slinging gangsta" meme, but if you avoided certain neighborhoods you'd be relatively alright
80's Miami was only dangerous for cokeheads or people who asssociated with them
D.C. when crack was happening in the 80's deserves honorable mention for fucked upness
But 70's NYC was fucking Gotham City without the Caped Crusader
New York is fucking Disneyworld now
>>3265084
That's because new york has gone full dystopian police state. I shit you not the projects look like they are being occupied by a military force, moblie observation post, constant patrols and flood lighting make it look like something out of a movie.

I was at a militaria fair earlier today and picked up a little bag with coins and some letters, some cards for service and coins. It's hard for me to translate the cursive from German but it looks interesting
>First line: Warten haben wir ja gelerut heir im Rusland-- We have been waiting for him in Russia.
It looks like the next few lines are saying "We'll take care of you."
Will be posting pictures hoping someone takes an interest. If the writing isn't clear I have a better camera but the wartime paper is thin.
This is the front, the back starts saying that they've been waiting for him in Russia. It looks like it's from 1942.

Will be trying to keep the camera straight now
Back of the letter
Next card in the series, the ink on this is at least darker, but even harder to read
Has postmodernism produced even one significant, universally acknowledged conclusion?
>>3295165
What do you mean by conclusion?
what even is postmodernism I still don't know
By "universally", I mean, in the Western World.
For example, the Enlightenment produced many conclusions that the Western World takes as a given today. That you should question your perceptions, that God existing is a possibility and not a doctrine, that you should question authority and government -- and many others.
What about postmodernism?
Why did no country conquer Antarctica, did they fear the penguin warrior?
But in all seriousness, why was there no real attempt to colonize this place
It's too cold retard
>>3294850
There's nothing there. It's just ice and stupid ass birds.
Colonies generally turn a profit, and Antarctica doesn't, that's changed now with the autistic muh omega 3 kirll oil shit but now all you need is long range fishing trawlers so a colony still makes no sense
Why did the Prussians preform so poorly that they were conquered by Napoleon ? What changed between then and the times of Fredrick the Great?
>What changed between then and the times of Fredrick the Great?
Napoleon
>>3294332
>Why did the Prussians preform so poorly that they were conquered by Napoleon ?
Not only that, but in merely 19 days!
The only country to have done worse during that era was Portugal (conquered in 11 days a year after Prussia)
They tried to solo France, bad idea
Had poland given up danzig and the polish corridor, do you think war could have been avoided? Would hitler have made any more territorial claims?
Posen was next, and even if he got that too he'd fuck with France over Alsace-Lorraine
>>3294045
Poland didn't own Danzig at that time. It was under German administration.
Poland offered Corridor to Germany much earlier but they refused.
I keep seeing posters who claim that swedish annexation and rule over Finland is comparable with african and new world colonization.
How bad was it really for finns under swedish rule though?
>convert or die
>local leadership killed or replaced
>political disenfranchisement
>forced conscription
>crushing taxes that caused numerous famines
>cultural heritage ruined, artifacts tolen and cultural character replaced by Sw*dish ideals
>>3293822
>local leadership killed or replaced
Not really. More like ennobled.
>How bad was it really for finns under swedish rule though?
Culturally Finns were oppressed. For example Finnish language wasn't used in higher education or administration meaning that to be able to climb social ladder you had to speak Swedish.
Was it autism or psychopathy?
>>3293779
Its just a more autistic version of the Eastern Land Strip plan by the German Empire.

I am excited because it looks like this game will focus on the civil war in egypt which means they will make five sequels about the end of the roman republic with at least one where you go to rome to kill Caesar. The only downside is that it's made by ubisoft and will feature the retarded "future" storyline with the animus and all this bullshit. The repetitive gameplay and hack writing won't do it any favors either.
>>3293532
>The repetitive gameplay
The combat system is retarded this time. Literally chucking spears and jumping backwards, with bows that shoot satellite guided arrows
Why are Israelis so obsessed with this one dude.
>Ask for help from literally the only major world power opposing the colonial power occupying you
>get no help and only some sympathetic platitudes
>"HURR MUFTI WAS LITERALLY HITLER!! ARAVS DID THE HOLOCAUST!!! FAKESTINIANS KILLED 6 GORILLION JEWS!!!"
It's like the searched and searched till they found one Arab dude that met Hitler once, and rolled with it. Kinda like Stormfags obsession with Genrikh Yagoda.
>>3293178
Yagoda was head of the NKVD and managed the Gulag system you uneducated mong.
>>3293238
What's ur point, kike?
>>3293178
Are you unaware of the history? He was the original Palestinian leader, the first Arafat. This man incited the 1929 Hebron & Safed Massacre, which mostly killed Anti-Zionist Native Palestinian Jews. That created the Irgun and the Stern Gang. No person has set back the Palestinians more than him.
Why didn't Amerindians set aside their differences and BTFO Europeans?
Don't worry my nigga, we're going to unite with all non wh*Tes from Blacks to Asians and genocide wh*Te subhumans
>>3292842
Eurangatans were literally armed apes shooting up an unarmed university campus.
>BTFO Europeans
Couldn't happen. They would've won eventually; they were far too advanced in comparison.
Which 3 countries have the most tragic histories? Which 3 countries have lived on easy-mode?

We had to beat the strongest empire in the world to gain our independence and had a civil war in which we still feel fallout from. Also, we've had high racial tension almost since our conception.
>spain
??????
>>3292465
Was Britain even truly committed in btfo of American rebels?
Everything else you said is child's play to most other major countries.
>tragic
Russia.
China.
Congo.
>easy
Canada.
Sweden.
Iceland.
I'm currently doing a school project on what the Third Reich would look like in the XXI century if they won the war. Do you guys have any ideas on what would the world look like today ?
>>3291877
The honest truth is that it would be almost exactly the same as what we have today, just with a few aesthetic differences, like Nazis suddenly being the good guys in war films etc.
>>3291877
>Do you guys have any ideas on what would the world look like today?
They never had a chance at winning WW2, so the scenario is redundant.
Also, read In The Presence of Mine Enemies by Harry Turtledove,
>>3291889
I'm also analyzing the military mistakes they made during that war and thx for the reccomendation
Who was the biggest badass in the big four ? And the most influential ?
Clemenceau was the most badass motherfucker out there, the dude was called "The Tiger" or "Father Victory"
>Officers had to pull him down in a trench after he jumped out and threw insults at the Germans less than fifty meters away, his fist raised in anger
The most influential was definetely Wilson though, but Clemenceau called him a pussy
Clémenceau's moustache is top tier
biggest badass: Clemenceau
most influential: Wilson
