>Making a last effort, Charles formed a new army and arrived in the dead of winter before the walls of Nancy. Having lost many of his troops through the severe cold, it was with only a few thousand men that he met the joint forces of the Lorrainers and the Swiss, who had come to the relief of the town, at the Battle of Nancy (5 January 1477). He himself perished in the fight, his naked and disfigured body being discovered some days afterward frozen into the nearby river. Charles' head had been cleft in two by a halberd, lances were lodged in his stomach and loins, and his face had been so badly mutilated by wild animals that only his physician was able to identify him by his long fingernails and the old battle scars on his body.

Why did did leftism become anti-nationalist?
>>1701788
It isn't.
I think a successful Nationalist nation would eventually move leftward financially. You can't have too lefty leaning economic policies when you have parasitic outsiders who will take advantage of them, and put strain upon the natives. The whole left vs right view is massively flawed.
>>1701788
> He thinks you can't be a nationalist without being a dick about it
>>1701813
Yep.
Left-right is used in two ways: on social stances, and on economic stances.
Nationalist is by default often left in economic sense and right on social issues (ignoring American ''nationalists'').
Why is it that other European languages have dialects that are fairly far apart, but English doesn't? In Italy, Spain, the German-speaking countries, etc. you have so many different dialects that there needs to be a standard register for people to understand one another. Meanwhile an American, a Britbong, and an Australian all basically speak the same way barring minor differences in vocabulary and spelling.
Are continentals just special snowflakes or is something else going on?
>>1701780
American media effectively acts as homogenizer force, creating a standar example.
>>1701780
There used to be a lot more dialectal diversity, but massive migration from the countryside into the cities in the 20th century caused them all to coalesce.
>>1701780
Aren't some Scottish dialects fairly apart from the correct english?
This is what Hitler did. History has shown him to be a scandalous tax evading trickster.
>>1701691
That was probably the real reason why he wanted to be a president. The world war should just cover up his true intention

I have recently read an article stating that a great financial condition and lack of unemployment of the Third Reich were myths. Why? It is stated that jews and women were not included in official data.
Why did old cities have roads like this? Did people build their homes and buildings wherever they wanted and just say "Fuck it"?
>>1701555
>Did people build their homes and buildings wherever they wanted and just say "Fuck it"?
Yes.
>>1701555
Some ancient cities had city planing tho so your question makes no sense.
>>1701555
The oldest cities in europe, especialy central europe, growed out of villages thus never really had planed streets like in the us. It was more an Ad Hoc thing.
>So... did they expect it?
What makes the Spanish decided to do this? Was Jews the main and only target?

How terrible exactly did the Italians perform in World War 1? and why? I noticed that they won more battles than they lost, but they had many humiliating defeats especially at the Isonzo River and when lead by Luigi Cadorna.
Not too terribly considering they were trying to push through one of the most defensible borders in Europe.
>>1701357
Rommel has said that the average Italian infantry was good but the officer corps was lacking.
they were italian
Is anxiety, depression, and alienation among the general population higher today and in the last 50 years or so of industrialized civilization than it was in the past, particularly in relation to pre-modern or pre-industrial societies? If so, why is this the case?
real depression ends up with a trip to the psych ward and treatment with transcranial magnetic stimulation or electroshock.
pcps handing out antidepressants to every post menopausal women and edgy somewhat sad teenager shouldn't be taken as evidence that rates of depression are at a sky high never before seen in history level.
>>1701282
There's no real evidence for this. We don;t think of primitive people having the incidents of mental illness we have because among primitive people, the mentally ill are typically kept isolated and housebound, and not talked about because of the shame associated with it.

This is a Ptolemaic map drawn by someone in 1300 based on Ptolemy's writings. How does one create a map based on writings? Isn't it very likely that this is nothing like Ptolemy's original world map?
>>1701041
Ptolemy included coordinates for all the places he covered, and directions on the shapes of coastlines. This is what a Latin translation of the Geographia looks like.
>>1701041
is that south america in the bottom right?
>>1701041
>How does one create a map based on writings?
Geometry. If city A is 100 km from city B and 50km from city C, and city B is 70km from city C, there are exactly two places city C can be relative to A and B. This drops to one places once you include more details, like the general direction or another reference point. Capturing precise details is obviously harder, but not impossible if the said details are present in the writings.
How did the study of Indo-European languages spawn the concept of the 'Aryan master race'?
Probably the fact that PIE-derived languages are spoken by half the world and have a single homeland, likely Ukraine. Also the fact that blue eyes originated there.
This narcissistic cunt.

Why were suits so common in the late 19th and first half of the 20th century?
They were worn by people across most cultures and seemingly very often.
Would you bring back the suit wearing fad /his/
>>1700931
They became less popular because t-shirts are cheaper.
Only clothes sold in the market.
Men had class back then
not like today with their pants around they're knees

Is psychoanalysis bullshit?
If so, why do so many people take it so seriously?
It is hard to take serious things seriously as you need a real effort or at least talent to do that, the same reason, why people aren't causally discuss abstract math, but always ready for religion debate.
It's a pseudoscience.
