Wouldn't Islam make their better warriors?

A die hard spirit and a tighter organization.

Because they stopped being "The Mongols" and started being this, that and the other Khanate. A few centuries later, Timur styled himself the heir to Genghis Khan, and went on a conquering spree, but his army was little different from Persian armies before or after in composition, and he held court like a Persian Shah.

I hate to use a video game comparison, but it's too perfect: They got culture-flipped.

"In the ancient world" covers thousands of years of history over the entire planet, so of course it varied a lot like everything else.

But despite that we can still say "a lot less safe than us," since modern industrialized countries are the safest societies ever by a wide margin.

>in the ancient world?
Elaborate

Lol, USA wasnt that influencial by that time.
It was strong and the first superpower or near to be yes, but Europeans still didint give lots of shits about them.

The major causes for WWII were the human devastation of Europe and economic troubles, particularly the Great Depression. The compounded effects of those two factors, human and economic destruction, on Russia, Germany, etc. is what helped idealist demagogues to take power there, not the United States' intervention.

Did the idea of the great war being an "ideological war" between Democracy and Autocracy even exist at that time in Europe? I'm pretty sure it may have been part of US propaganda but that's about it.

>>1667727
You can notice that before WWI the tradicional monarchies were way more influential. When the USA intervenes and ends the war decisevily they, as the winners, tell the story with a lot of propaganda. And then the Austro-hungary empire is dissolved, Austria, a country that was one of the greatest european nations in all terms is simply reducted to its modern size and states that are no nations like Yugoslavia are created instead. Democracy took all Europe, and it may be explained by USA's influence as the winner.

Power will almost always be used against that member in the name of protecting him.

Suicides?

Which isn't a rightful exercise of power.

>>1667482
How is preventing someone from committing suicide a rightful exercise of power? A suicidal person isn't harming anyone but themselves.

French mutinies. They stopped revolting when the military command stopped being pants-on-head retarded and kicked it down a notch to plain retarded.

>>1667399
Russians did exactly that but they didn't have trenches to begin with so it doesn't count.

>>1667399
Short answer?

Class structure
Propaganda/indoctrination
Honour/Fear of being branded a coward
Religion/Peridition

Now stop being an Bolshavik, anarchist COWARD and climb up that ladder private!

At least Islam has it book dictated direct from heaven while Christians had a council and it was debated what books when in.

Abrahamic religions are real, it's just that god doesn't exist.

I meant real as in their supposed "relation" with God.

No matter what. Christianity is not compatible with being a libertarian.

You can try to spin it all your want, but doing economic actions out of self interest will not get you into heaven.

>>1666967
Germans are an intrinsically evil and destructive people. They see stability, wealth, happiness, functional, developing and growing societies and they just get these urges to tear it all down, burn it to to ashes, gas it, and just do everything in their power to make things worse.

I think I'm more saddened by the old videos.

The people who were filmed may have never seen their faces on a silver screen.

>Cleopatra lived closer to today than when the pyramids were built

Here's one I think about sometimes OP: despite everyone who was alive at the time of this photo's taking, we still believe in and follow many of the concepts at the time. We have agreed to maintain many of the nation-states from the time, many of the same systems of laws, constitutions, regulations, etc.

Based on what ground do you make these claims

because his art wasn't appreciated at the time

He received only one review in a newspaper during his lifetime, and he was pleased enough to write a letter of thanks to the critic

More than anything, Van Gogh wanted human connection, but he was utterly socially inept. If he knew how much he is admired today, he would almost definitely cry

Assholes during the 30 Years War.
Europeans started founding centralized, standing armies.
Nationalism looked down on foreign soldiers.

They're not, Blackwater-type organizations exist and operate all around the world.
