Battles that make you swell with pride
I'll start.

>2000 people total

It's remarkable how the fate of such a powerful region was decided by such a small battle
>>
>>1751926
It really is interesting how small the battles were, but how big a deal they were to the region. Texas history is actually fairly interesting and full of tales of heroes (just like any other war, I'd wager, but being a 7th generation Texan makes you appreciate them more)

Why has France never recovered from the Franco-Prussian War?

They've really become a third tier power ever since.

Even after WW2, they had a semi-coup to change to a presidential system, and then a bunch of disgruntled army officers tried to kill De Gaulle because he wasn't militant enough for them.

This is incidentally why they hideously botched WW2, and why the wars in Indochina and Algeria were such clusterfucks compared to the ones in Kenya and Malaysia

They haven't recovered since the 100 days.

Can anybody help me understand this?

Pretty much all Jewish people have German names. Yiddish is literally German with the Hebrew alphabet.

From like 1800 to the Holocaust it seems like a ton of important Germans were Jewish. There were less Jews in Germany than there are in America, but we have Marx and Freud and Einstein and Fritz Lang and Walter Benjamin and Walter Rathenau and Mahler and Mendelson totally stealing the show.

Why were Jews so important in Germany despite small numbers? Reading Ulysses suggests everybody associated Germans and Jews with each other, and the Dreyfuss Affair suggests that just being Jewish meant Dreyfuss was believed to have German sympathies.

they couldn't own land
they had some protection in the hre after huge massacres during the crusade times
due to the jobs they were allowed to do they became a part of the urbanized merchant class so they were affected by developing ideas relatively fast and had connects in business and social circles just because of the jobs they were allowed to do such as usury
>>
The majority of Ashkenazim lived in the Austria-Hungary region when surnames became commonplace, which is why Yiddish surnames are most often Germanic. They migrated East as conditions became less hospitable for Jews in Western Europe.

As far as the Jews in Germany proper, they became quite segregated from the Eastern European majority. The Easterners stereotyped them as pretentious and unfriendly, while the German Jews considered the Easterners superstitious boors with no class.

Jews in Western Europe tended to be much better educated than the working class ones who came from the East, particularly in England and Germany.

> the Dreyfuss Affair suggests that just being Jewish meant Dreyfuss was believed to have German sympathies.

That actually had more to do with Dreyfus being from Alsace. Dreyfus' Jewishness made him a target for accusations of espionage, but officers in his position were chosen for their knowledge of German language and culture. Alsace-Lorraine was annexed by Germany at the time Dreyfus moved to Paris, and it was only after that that he enlisted with the military.
>>
>>1748134
The urban part is what's really relevant. Jews were 5-10% of the Berlin population before the war, even if they were only about 1% of the total German population.

Most Germans still lived rural lives in the early 20th century, insulated from cosmopolitan turbulence.

I'll start us off:

>used to think Rome was still a real culture/empire because when I was 6 my friend's parents hired two actors to roleplay legionaries on his birthday
>used to think that George Washington chopped down a cherry tree given to the US by the Japanese because I lived in DC and we have cherry trees that were given to us by the Japanese and I assumed Washington lived in Washington DC
>used to think the Queen of the UK could still order people's heads cut off because of Alice in Wonderland

I used to think that the figures at Pompeii were actually just the real people "frozen" in ash, not plaster fills of the imprints they left behind.

What are some good books about the migration period? I'm interested in how the different groups of people moved around and assimilated/conquered existing peoples, as well as the origins of Slavs, Ango-Saxons, etc.
