That's the Zatoichi trope.

Watch Hyougemono for Japan, and Three Kingdoms (2010) for China.

that's a pretty broad question, can you be more specific

The institution of marriage is dead.

Shifts in socioeconomics and culture in modernized countries have destroyed it.

Why do people cling to such broken idea?

The institution, yes. The idea? No.

Segregation of church and state.

I'm not sure what you are asking. Why do people cling to most things?

What do you propose as the alternative?
>>
>>1882466
I wouldn't say it's dead. A lot of people still want to have a monogamous long-term relationship.

Nope. Severely btfo by history and common sense.

Take this one: men in harsh climes create civilizations. While Junglefaggots aren't inclined to do so because muh food is available everywhere.

Doesn't really answer India or Southeast Asia and honestly sounds like a theory someone who hasn't lived in a Jungle made up. In addition it doesn't take on several factors such as meme jungle tribes growing in population and necessitating more organization.

The way societies lived is determined more than their meme environment. I'm not saying that the environment has no major bearing on human societies - it fucking has- but it doesnt take into account other factors such as population growth, culture of a given group, the influence of other societies, nor random fucking chance.

I don't understand the point of revisionist history

What does it matter?

What does it matter if the holocaust didn't happen, you can't uncreate the state of Israel.

What does it matter if the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki weren't fully justified, you can't unbomb Japan.

What's the point?

>What does it matter if the holocaust didn't happen, you can't uncreate the state of Israel.
you can uncreate the holocaust, and then after israel is gone, someone else can uncreate it.

>What does it matter if the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki weren't fully justified, you can't unbomb Japan.
after sufficient time passes, a historian may be able to unbomb it.

what's the point of unrevised history?

This channel (The Great War) is one I highly recommend for those who are interested in the First World War, he goes through the war on all fronts week by week on what happened, as well as giving information on life in the trenches and for soldiers during the war.

To be fair Versailles put the country into a depression that caused many to die of starvation which would only cause more discontent against the Allies among the German people, obviously fueling a second war

>The Port of the capital was also transformed into a free port to encourage trade.
>By the early 1960s, Liberia began to enjoy its first era of prosperity, thanks to the policies put in place and the efficient use of resources to implement postive development.

there weren´t much trenches there, armies had more space

>>1881186
The western front lasted the whole war, so I believe that's why it gets the most coverage. Still deserves attention.
>>
>>1881186
Because it was all sorta nullified
The front ended because Russia had a couple revolutions and the government backed out
But all the gains Germany made as a result were overruled when they lost in the West
also Russian logistics are cringeworthy to talk about

Yep. He only produced them.
German uniforms in WWII were just evolutions of previous German/Prussian military attire.

They did look great though.

So I recently watched a series of videos from a guy with about six subscribers on Youtube. He was a very conservative Christian guy talking about how upset he was about the state of the world. In some of his videos, he would say that Jesus' return is imminent, definitely in our lifetimes.

I'm curious, for how long has this claim been made? Are there quotes or documents going way back of people saying Jesus will be showing up again any minute now? I've found such statements to be pretty common, but I can't seem to find out if there was a recent boom in this shared belief.
