Pakistan is the heir of the mughal empire.
India should hand itself over. It is only proper that the green flag of islam fly over the red fort.

Ps. Pakistanis are white and based.
>>
>>1928392
I traveled to Pakistan just a few months ago and was surprised to see a lot of white people. I always imagined them looking like a mix between Arabs and Indians. But they were pretty based. Nice people too. Poor people who look like they were starving to death was always offering their food to travelers. The government is beyond corrupt though. Many people from Europe go there to bribe the police and kill people, either a cheating wife case or just greed for bloodshed. We had armed guides with us everywhere.

The Mughal Empire was the responsible of the Decline of Buddhism in India and Central Asia. All the people who are currently Muslims in that region have got Buddhist forebears.

> From 986 CE, the Muslim Turks started raiding northwest India from Afghanistan, plundering western India early in the eleventh century. Force conversions to Islam were made, and Buddhist images smashed, due to the Islamic dislike of idolarty. Indeed in India, the Islamic term for an 'idol' became 'budd'.
—Peter Harvey, An Introduction to Buddhism

Before Buddhism, those peoples probably practiced some kind of shamanism with Zoroastrian and Greek influences. Pretty much like nowadays Kalash people.

Alright, /his. Let's get the low down.

I am looking to extensively study the history of warfare, primarily focusing on the tactics, strategy and battles of military leaders throughout the centuries so what I'm looking for is this;

A comprehensive list of military generals and leaders etc. who you deem to be worthy or capable or influential in some form.

Books about these individuals or books about the entirety of the history of warfare in general.

I am a novice in history and some people I have in mind right now are;

Napoleon
Charles XII
Caesar
Alexander
Khalid ibn al-Walid
Hannibal
Charlemagne
Augustus

Are there any kinds of books on warfare that span the history of the world?

I was hoping someone could help me understand how much the weight could differ between a c. 13th century harness like in pic related and a 15th century harness, let's say about 1450-1475. Was a chainmail hauberk covering the whole torso and arms down to the fingers as heavy as a breastplate/backplate, spaulders/pauldrons, rerebraces/vanbraces, and gauntlets?

How did German citizens and German Jews react to each others presence after they moved back to Germany circa 1946/47?

Was the whole thing really awkward, given that their neighbours had essentially sent them to death? Or did they just try to gloss over everything?

UK and France were desperate to avoid another war, and the sentiment that Hitler's requests were somewhat legitimate was widespread.
After all, in that period, communism was seen as a far bigger threat by many. Though people like Churchill saw through Hitler's plans, many did not and many even saw him positively as a man who saved Germany.
And while this modern propaganda about how Putin is new Hitler is ridiculous, it's kinda easy to see where is that coming from.

Could America have thrived without African slaves? Or were African slaves a necessary component of European expansionism and the industrial revolution?

African slaves taught us many things. I'm too lazy to get on my laptop to cite sources from my pdf book collection of /his/ but there's many things about agriculture that they taught us.
>>
>>1926431
Easily. It wasn't Brazil where slaves were almost a necessity for manual labor thanks to the climate and shit like malaria. In fact, slavery was almost dead when the U.S. was founded. Most of the crops grown weren't conducive to slave labor... at least until the advent of long staple cotton and the invention of the cotton gin. Slavery in the U.S. as most people know it was a consequence of King Cotton, not some inevitability.

As for this
>>1926443
>African slaves taught us many things

Bullshit. Most slaves really couldn't tell their asshole from their elbow with little exception. There's a reason their farms all fucking failed after freedom despite doing nothing but farming their entire lives.
>>
>>1926464
Cotton was the true evil all along. Should have just shipped all black people back to Africa.
