Sup faggots, who is your favourite PM? Doesn't have to be historically significant necessarily.
Mine is Harold Wilson.

Too Bulgarian in nature to want to be with Serbs, but also not wanting to be apart of Bulgaria at the same time.
The name of Macedonia wasn't some revisionism thing but reflects how the borders of the region changed overtime by how the Empires that ruled over the land crafted Macedonia as a 'province'. Originally, Macedonia had a lot of the territory of Greek Macedonia after the Ottomans got kicked out but Greece took it back.
No one wants to divide up the country because it would too much of an effort.

Innovation is more important than inventions. It doesn't matter who first made it because innovation will always take over.

Are you suggesting objective accomplishment can't be quantified and compared? Odds are you're butthurt because you're from a country that has invented little to nothing.

Honestly i mostly need information on type of hat worn by pic related, couldn't find it anywhere. I recently got more interested in the Napoleonic wars (Thanks Cossacks II) and would love for people to most more uniforms, especially more unique and less known regiments/states I really didn't know where to ask this question so i figured i might start a thread.

The hat is called a shako.

Thats a shako? Is it a specific type, because the shako looks more square to me?
>>
>>1949196
I don't know much about the type of hats. Shako seems to be pretty much a catch-all term for that type of cap. But yeah, shakos can have a sloping back, look at American Civil War era USMC shakos, for example.
I got into an arguement with someone last night over communism. I argued that communism never works, and countries that practice it end up poor and in many cases have famines and mass murder. This persons said I was brainwashed by western education, and that communism was invented before Karl Marx. He said that parts of communism was found in Ancient Greece, which proves that communism has worked and can work again.
This seem wrong to me since communism is largely based around the industrial working class, which Ancient Greece did not have. Am I in the wrong here? Was parts of communism enacted in Ancient Greece?

You're definitely brainwashed by cold-era propaganda, Anon. Communism is about bringing a worldwide classless and stateless society. It cannot happen in a single country and the USSR/China/Cuba etc. all were totalitarian states when the revolution got hijacked by assholes.
Pic related are countries where the CIA had to intervene most often to stop democratically elected communists through coups.
The idea of socialism letting workers own the result of their work, instead of having very few individuals hoard all the wealth and distribute crumbs. It's democracy applied to the economy, nothing more, nothing less. Ancient societies/tribes therefore were socialist up to a certain point when men started to divide power in a way linked to industralization (fordism for instance).
So I'd say you got it the other way around, industrialization brought today's capitalism to the world, with all its consequences.

>>1949031
Nope, this is simply communist wewuzism.
Ancient Greece was oligarchic as shit.

There is nothing wrong with western education. In fact i'd rather be "brainwashed' by western education than enjoy beauties of freethinking found in Russia or China.

Are Anglicans protestants? I was raised anglican and my grandparents always talked about being protestants, but Ive done some reading and apparently Anglicans are basically non papal Catholics.
What's the difference between Anglicans and Catholics?

Anglicans do not acknowledge the pope and traditionally saw the King of England as head of the church.
They also accepted several theological innovations spurred by the protestant reformation, but never adopted sola scriptora.
