What exactly was in the library of alexandria?
I know the actual texts burned, but is there a catalog or something floating around out there?
It was said to have housed 700,000 rolls together with all the books of the Gnostic Basilides, Porphyry’s 36 volumes, papyrus rolls of 27 schools of the Mysteries, and 270,000 ancient documents gathered by Ptolemy Philadelphus.
Is it true that the majority of the library was aristocratic dissertations on the Illiad?
>>1863019
it was when I was there,
It might have changed though
>Warring states
>Three kingdoms
>Mongols
>Qing
>Opium wars
Can the history of China basically be summed up as "the bad guys won"?
>>1862925
Also, the Chinese civil war.
>>1862925
Yes, just look at chinese cities now, They look like a cartoon villain hideout
>>1863075
T. Never been to a Chinese city
All the coastal cities look like a mesh of Californian business districts and Vietnam just with less advertising
>>1862925
You could say that about literally any fucking country.
Also, the long term effects of literally everything you said has contributed overwhelmingly positive for humanity and in that China as a whole.
Without the warring states, there would be no Han dynasty, and thus no multilevel bureaucracy until the Byzantine Empire
Without the Three Kingdoms, there would be no Three Gorges Dam because there would be no delineation of three general commercial areas
Without Mongols, there wouldn't have been an elongated Silk Road nor a thorough subversion of Islam, which would've perpetuated the mess of the Abbasid Caliphate and would not have kickstarted European colonialism through the importation of compasses and printing press and would thus probably see the industrial revolution delayed if not abolished entirely within England, which in turn would mean that modern China wouldn't have so much modern medicine and agricultural methods to sustain a large and relatively well-off population
With the Qing, you could call the Chinese phenomena of imperial bureaucracy as 'cucked' but its' functional, literally half the Chinese dynasties were ruled by minorities, mostly aggressive, Nomad type ones who would assume Han customs towards the point they're for all intents and purposes reskinned Han officials, the same with the Qing except the ugly ass braids. Without them and without the Opium wars there would've been no breathing space for modernisation or reform, unlike Japan, a country the size of China and with the rooted legalist and Confucianist forces of China could not have modernised peacefully
The holocaust is a real event that really happened guys
>>1862799
Yes, you are correct.
Actually its dumb because it implies jews voluntarily went to the labor camps with almost no resistance whatsoever, and thus collaborated.
>>1862799
I can't believe your mom conceived you either
>tfw your children are going to rise once again
>>1862774
I'm okay with this :)
Just don't make the same mistakes we did -- stay on the straight and narrow as a people. Remember that genetics is king and that asthetics matter, and don't be enticed by utilitarian materialism or fall into the nihilist trap. Good luck.

What did people do before these were invented?
Chew them off?
>>1862571
Same as with everything else there probably was a (now) retarded, less efficient, early version of it.
>>1862571
They used a toeknife
>>1862574
How did they cut their hair before scissors were invented?
Were the Irish(and Italians) really discriminated against in the old USA or is just a "We wuz discriminated" meme?
Irish and Italians were never really discriminated nor lynched in mass.
Only a couple of Italians were lynched because they killed a cop, so it was justified.
Irish and Italians are not white
t. Polish
They were, but not to the extent that blacks were (not even close) and it ended way too distantly for anybody to even claim any sort of compensation from it.
Also indentured servants not as bad as slaves.
Why was Islam obsessed with military campaigns westwards while just sending meme missionaries to the East?
inb Battle of Talas. It was a frontier war and the T'ang was the aggressor party. There is no Muslim military incursion into China I can name of while shitloads have happened into the west.
>>1862500
Because the East doesn't tolerate them like the West does.
You give them an inch and they take a mile
>>1862500
East was pretty tough for military expeditions for the Mooseleems. The formidable T'ang Dynasty aside, you had Steppenigs to worry about. Byzantweaks and Iberian Visigoths can't really compare to the two.
Also the East is the Moneymaker. You do not attack the people who are making you rich.
>>1862504
>East doesnt tolerate them.
>T'ang Emperor: So i herd u liek tade. Come have embassy in capital and let's talk money.
Also amongst the most loyal sodliers any Chinese dynasty ever had were soldiers from the Hui Minority. Who were Muslim.
What is the mughal empire
Do enlightened people get depressed?
Marginalization creates enlightenment, so many times the answer is yes.
>>1862370
Yes
>>1862373
Then what's the point of gaining enlightenment?
Who is your favorite history bad-guy?

What can /his/ tell me about the first and second Congo Wars? What factions were involved, what were they fighting for, what were geopolitical reasons for war breaking out?
Sorry if this is against the 25 year rule but this is pretty much the only place I can post this besides /b/, as I doubt this thread would do very well on /pol/.
Firstly I recommend buying the book Dancing in the Glory of Monsters for an in depth assessment.
The Rwandan Genocide between the Hutus v Tutsi and Tutsi sympathisers ended with the Tutsis victories and Paul Kagame's government taking over the country. The genocidaires fled to just over the border in Mobutu's Congo. This freaked Kagame out who threatened Mobutu with war if he did not stop harbouring the genocidaires.
The old dictator refused and so an insurrection was created by Rwanda in conjunction with a proper and successful invasion.
Fucking read a book or something jesus christ.
>>1862328
It was more or less the Rwanda-supported militias versus the locals. The US started giving Rwanda lots of guns in the 90s, blocked UN investigations into the Rwandan genocide, and funded the war to spill over into the Congo. The second congo war was more of a true civil war where external powers were less involved.
Why is there a memorial on every street corner for the Holocaust, where it's estimated between 5 and 6 million died, but no memorial for the estimated 20 million (or more) Russians that died?
Also, why do most memorials ignore other groups who were killed, such as Poles? Honestly, wasn't even allowed to take photographs or notes in one memorial I visited.
*5 or 6 million Jews, that is.
>>1862294
Not even /pol/, but Jews.
Why are you asking us?
Why is this a thinly veiled /pol/ thread?
>entire empire collapses because a crazy homeless man seduced a Tsarina
How does that even work.
>>1862249
Carefully
>>1862249
#thats not what happened
>>1862249
>implying the empire's failure wasn't due to Nicholas II being a cunt.
What would've potentially happened if the Ottomans, Safavids, and Mughals joined forces and marched on Europe in the 1700's?
Aggressive expansion penalties.
>>1862238
Probs suffer the same fate as Rome if things went well. Heavy losses and brutal cuter attack if it went bad
