The North did nothing wrong, the Southern North Sea empire had no right to secede

The Icelandic sagas sometimes hint a bit into the life of the people in the backround of the grand tales, for example Auðuns tale is about a farmer who bought a polar bear and traveled to the pope to show him. It shows some customs and looks into the life of the Norse

Keep in mind that most Viking seafarers were traders, not raiders.

They did for Northern Europe what the Italian merchant states did for Southern Europe.

Is facebook filled with discussion about the inspiration or lack thereof of the letters of Paul the Apostle?

I don't really disagree with your point but just fyi Ramsay MacMullen has a very poor academic reputation. There's a reason none of his recent works were submitted for peer review.

>MacMullen, Ramsay has a very poor academic reputation

>"When MacMullen was honored for a lifetime of scholarly achievement at the 2001 annual meeting of the American Historical Association with the Award for Scholarly Distinction, the award citation called him "the greatest historian of the Roman Empire alive today."[1] With important new books published in 2006 and 2009 and 2011 at the ages of 78 and 81 and 83, he remains a powerful voice for scholarly accuracy and lucidity among students of the Roman world."

Angry Christcuck detected.

It's a shame we'll never get to read just how badly Julian the Apostate BTFO of Christianity.

Austro-Hungary and Russia bear the majority of blame, but all the powers were only too happy to let a war start.

I'm saying the British Isles have historically been a factory of great theatre, even compared to Greece, where the whole thing got started.

That's your Anglo-centric perspective factoring in though, as I can guarantee that albeit for Shakespeare (though only for having becoming the inescapable flag-bearer for theater), germans are very unlikely to be knowledgable about Beckett, or Gilbert and so on... They would tell you that Goethe is the world's second greatest playwright, as the french would with Racine.

That said,
>Beckett as your proof for England being the home of fantastic theatre writing
>litterally the guy that wrote his masterpiece in french, then translated it into English

They were basically rolled over by german tanks. A lot of belorussians hid in the woods and participated in guerilla warfare

>>1705480

in some former soviet republics like Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, and Ukraine there are people who to this day think that the Soviet tyranny was worse. I want to know if there are similar thoughts from Belorussians.

there was a lot of anti jew propoganda and most germans were brainwashed to think that jews were less than people. Most wouldnt have known aabout the death camps only work camps.

Most fought for nationalism. Many simply enjoyed the army life - as in any country - with nationalism being secondary. Few fought for the supremacy of the white race.

By the outset of the war:

Everyone knew jews were being treated like second class citizens and of the racial laws that were being enacted.

Nobody knew of the holocaust or extermination camps, because that hadn't happened yet.

Lots of people knew about concentration or labour camps because believe it or not, that was kind of a thing in early 1900's european empire building.

By the end of the war, pretty much everyone knew that something was wrong with how the jews were treated. While there was no official information on it, soldiers on rotation to the front and to other forms of occupation duty would spread gossip at home. The gossip spread. Add to that the suppression of various ghettos and it doesn't take a genius to figure out that jews were being treated like vermin. But by then it was too late - you were already to caught up in this war business.

>I feel like maybe a large driving force behind recruitment was "revenge" for WW1's outcome?

quite likely. Butthurt is main fuel of modern nationalism

nope, german always wanted to include austria into german empire, but that would mean that all of the other nations of austrian empire (namely hungarians and czechs) would revolt

>>1704836
what, thats not true at all.

The hapsburgs loved being apart of the HRE germanosphere when they had hegemony, it wasn't until the rise of prussia that austrian dominance was questioned, checked, and austria in turn grew an identity separate from being a HRE substate into her own culture, austrian or southern german as opposed to german or north german.

There is no such thing as a "national" armor since Knights bought their own shit and that could be locally made or imports ordered from craftsmen in far-away lands.

Crusaders even wore bits of middle eastern armor.

They wore whatever they could afford/scavenge. And often times the armor was "outdated" because the cost of commissioning a new suit of armor is as expensive as buying a fancy sports car today.

>>1704785
>>1704795
Oh, so when the great helm was a thing in Germany, knights in France probably just wore whatever? Armies looked really rag tag?

Fall of Constantinople. Goes to show that none can stand against the might of a righteous army of God.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mallian_Campaign

>Alexander quickly became impatient at the pace of the siege, so he grabbed a ladder and went up it himself.[30] He was followed by only two soldiers. The rest of the soldiers, nervous about the safety of their king, crowded the ladders to get up so that they could protect him. There were too many of them, and the ladders collapsed under the weight. The Mallians realised who Alexander was, and focused their energies on him. Many of Alexander's men held out their arms and called for him to jump down to them.[31] The King, however, would not.[citation needed]

>Alexander leaped into the inner area of the citadel.[32] There, he killed the Mallians' leader.[33] But an arrow penetrated Alexander's lung, and he was severely wounded.[34] The Macedonians believed Alexander dead. After gaining entrance to the city, they planned to kill everyone in revenge.

Crazy fucker

Sounds pretty similar to me.

Catullus has a poem in which he complains about his saturnalia's present.

The Book of Mormon has already annotations on top of every chapter summarizing them, which were added later by Church ministers, but the writing is already straightforward as it is. You may also want to get Pearls of Great Price to go along with it.
