I felt, that in the mind of Hitler there was much of spiritual matters, transcending material plans. When I met the Führer he said that since boyhood he had been attracted by Japan. He read carefully reports of Japan's victory over Russia when he was only 17 years old and was impressed by Japan's astonishing strength.
—Gen. Tomoyuki Yamashita (1940)
>>1858969
The same reason a lot of Westerners are weebs.
A love of Japanese's civilization.
It's confirmed: if you are a weaboo, you are just as bad as Hitler.

That's not an explanation, that's a definition
What was their problem?
do you mean western and eastern gokturks?
>>1859503
if you ask it, when a ruler die the country would be shared between brothers. These counties that owned by brothers would depend to eastern counties that owned by big brother. That's the way of ruling in old Turkish countries. Ofc that cause to game of thrones because of that country began to decline
>>1859517
I'm not sure btw.
How did the Turks with such low manpower managed to fight in the west against the Gallipoli invasion, fight in the east against Russia, fight in the middle east AND murder 1.5 million Armenians all at the same time?
Sounds impressive.
home advantage and generals were capable
Considering Turkey is the second only to Serbia in % of population lost i don't find it impressive, rather sad.

I have only read a few of his ideas, and to me he seems like a grounded, educated and intelligent person, focused on economic thinking.
Hitler on the other hand was a racist socialist, whose only economic understanding was deficit spending and robber economy. Hitler was also a loser, had a micropenis, and was intellectually clearly leagues below Mussolini.
Mussolini even disliked Germans, and said stuff like
>Thirty centuries of history allow us to look with supreme pity on certain doctrines which are preached beyond the Alps by the descendants of those who were illiterate when Rome had Caesar, Virgil and Augustus.
So, how on earth did he choose to cooperate with Hitler? I know Hitler helped him Spain, and Mussolini abandoned Schuschnigg, and Mussolini had ambitions to restore the Roman Empire - yet all of this is not enough to ally a belligerent fool like Hitler, especially since Hitler was the stronger party. There must be more to it.
>>1858885
I heard that he sided with Hitler out of survival, his country wasn't ready for war, and he worried that Hitler may go for him.
I do agree that Mussolini seems like a much more educated and grounded person than Hitler, who is essentially a cartoon villain.
>>1858885
Back when Chamberlain was appeasing him, Hitler was quickly expanding an empire and Mussolini wanted to be on the winning side.

For my daily autism need I browsed flags by colors and found that green in a national flag makes you invariably a low test nation. Just a tiny drop of green is usually enough to turn you into a 3rd world shithole. Why is that?

Seriously, where did Slavs come from? Until the later part of the Migration Period, all Roman sources just tell about Germanic tribes all the way from the Danube to the Baltic Sea. Then suddenly, Slavs rule half of what the Romans used to call Magna Germania and they even have kingdoms on the Balkans. Meanwhile, there is no record of a large-scale Slavic migration of conquest of Germanic territories.
What the hell happened? Maybe Slavs were there the whole time, but Romans just called the Germans too? Not very plausible imo, Romans were usually noted the difference between Germanic tribes quite accurately, I doubt that they didn't notice that half of "Germans" have a different language and culture. Maybe they only lived in a small part of Magna Germania, but too many Germans left from there during the Migration Period and the Slavs just colonized the neighboring empty lands?
>muh russian subhuman = all slavs

Germanic-speakers were not the original IE inhabitants of territory which is now Poland, they came during middle-to-late Iron Age as immigrants or invaders and in relatively small numbers.
There is a biological population continuity in Poland since the Bronze Age until nowadays - neither Germanic immigration nor Slavic immigration altered it considerably.
Language & culture of population of Poland were changing few times, but population - in its main core (not counting quite numerous admixtures from migrating peoples) - is similar as in times of Biskupin-builders:

Even today people in eastern Germany and in Austria have a lot of R1a haplogroup, which was most common among Medieval West Slavs.
Also I2a haplogroup is very typical for Slavic populations. Of course it would be a mistake to associate haplogroups with ethnicities, but are there are certain statistical correlations, which allow us to arrive at certain conclusions and generalizations concerning their origins.
Also Slavic surnames are common in Germany - some of them are Polish in origin but some are from other Slavic groups.
For example here is surname "Janke", distribution of which indicates that it is Obotrite-Veleti rather than Polish, Pomeranian or Sorbian:
What exactly is Nazi Germany as a state? It was ruled by a party that called is called "National Socialist," but calls the state "Reich" which is literally "Empire," in German. So what is Nazi Germany as a state? A pseudo-monarchy? A republic? A fascist oligarchy? What?
Also provided that either the Germans won WWII or atfer the war, in a stalemate or something, Nazi Germany survives, was there any discussion to who replaces Hitler? Any institutions in charge to pass on the leadership?
No /pol/ answers please.
Basically an Empire headed by a Leader. Also there was a replacement for Hitler during the last days of WW2, Lutz Graf Schwerin von Krosigk, who served as the role of 'Chancellor'. So it could be assumed that in a world where Nazi Germany survived, the successor to Hitler would have been a Chancellor, and the poisition of Fuhrer was for him only.
>>1858757
Nazi Germany was a dictatorship, a monarchy in the truest sense of the word. No one approached the power of the Führer (perhaps Bohrmann did).
I think Heydrich was seen as the future of the party and state, although not the Reichstag or armed forces.
>>1858772
So was Fuhrer like some North Korea style "Eternal President" pseudo-monarchical title?
>Blessed are the poor in spirit
What does "poor in spirit" mean?

They got assimilated by the Teutonic Order, and their culture was rooted out. After that, the demographics of that region was culturally German up to the end of WW2.
There is no such thing as a German "race".

True.

Your picture depicts Russians aka Tatars.
Go to /balt/ and call them slavs.
See what happens.
Seriously, I've seen some pretty convincing stuff about it. Red pill me please.
>>1858658
It happened and your an imbecile if you don't think it happened. WWII killed 60 million people and you don't think the guys with the most powerful and aggressive military could kill 11 million who their leader had specifically stated they should kill? Come on now.

15 million*

Was Lawrence of Arabia as important as portrayed?
>>1858650
He's overblown like almost everything in Anglo history.
What he did contribute to was how betrayed the Arabs felt after the Brits and French fucked over the Middle East.
>>1858652
Sort of off topic but wtf do people mean when they say Anglo? Do they mean English/British or all the Anglosphere countries?
>>1858656
I meant Anglosphere in general. All those little things in the history of English-speaking peoples is blown over proportions by the prevalence of English-speaking culture today.
I do not want to diminish Lawrence, but Lawrence is known only because he was a Brit. Other nations have their own similar figures that sometimes changed history in way much more evident way that are completely obscure today.
Is this true?
>>1858640
Yes. An entire town's population where I live (Ireland) was enslaved and taken away by Corsairs a few hundred years back
>>1858640
This stuff happened but it wasn't done by Subsaharan Africans. It was done by Berbers and Arabs.

Intellectual discussions are impossible on /pol/ so ill make a thread here.
Situation seems really tense right now, do you guys think war could start soon?
Would Russia be alone or get support from China?
The war is just around the corner.
>>1858553
Putin and the current President and EU politicians aren't stupid enough. At best we could see a small war involving Duterte and Xi Jinping. Things are getting somewhat tense though as Russian weapons are in Cuba and Vietnam but it will probably just stay as economic embargo's and not full blown war.
Russia is not prepared for war. Putin is just grandstanding to distract the Russian people from their massive problems.
