Alright /his/, help this baka anon out.
I have kinda subscribed to the idea that Italy has been shit at war.
That for some reason they have always retardedly gone into battle with stupid tank designs, half assed plans, low morale, and no strategy.

Is it as BS as I suspect or does it have any validity? At the very least the holy crusade to convert the whole earth to liberalism isn't a peaceful process.

Just like any political science theory, it's not inherently falsifiable or determinative of the future.

As for the extent as to which a layman political analyst/theorist should believe in the validity of the theory, I'd say that one should look at the chronological order y which the theory was developed.

Hint* The moral judgement came before the theoretical judgment.

It depends on what you count as a conflict or not.

By the industry standard, if you will, it is thus far a valid as two democratic nations have yet to be in conflict with each other.

I go along with the four race thing; Caucasoid, Mongoloid, Negroid, Australoid.

Afghans are a nationality and they are made up of around 15 ethnic groups, which are either Caucasoid or a mixture of Caucasoid and Mongoloid

By early 19th century standard, he was much more democratic than most European rulers

Definitly in the top five

I am reading History of the Civil War 1861-1865 by James Rhodes

I read before that 1776 by David Mccullough.

Both good books. After I read Rhodes' book I am going to read The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich

>>1966651
I'm reading Stalingrad by Antony Beevor.
Good read, got a fair share of maps and photos.
>>
>>1969245
Beevor is excellent, particularly if you're American. Because he's a Brit, it's nice to get a different view. He was also a student of John Keegan. His book "The Second World War" is really, really good. Covers the war in its entirety, all over the world with a lot of primary sources.

>Post-war Germans living in Eastern Europe were targeted for retribution
>Boats containing German refugees were attacked by allied submarines
>Mass rapes
>Mass deportations of ethnic Germans occurred
>Property and possessions of known Germans were seized and given away
>Germans were shipped off to concentration camps in cattle cars
>Disease and starvation rampant in the camps
>Young and elderly died from exhaustion
>Some were shipped off to the USSR as slave labour
>Partisans were allowed to murder and attack ethnic Germans with little fear of reprisal
>600 thousand - 2 million died
>Ethnic Germans still living in Eastern Europe are discouraged from practicing their language
>Not considered a genocide

They got to keep the krauts down otherwise their natural efficiency predisposes them to dominate the world. You can't give them anything to feel sorry about otherwise they'll tueton all over everything.
