You are teleported back in time into the body of Mao Zedong. Your objective is to avoid the mass deaths of Mao's reign. You cannot take a 360 by restoring democracy and becoming a capitalist, your decisions have to be in line with Maoist thought.
How do you accomplish it?

If my decisions have to be in line with Maoist thought and -I- am Mao then I can make whatever decision I want. I immediately organize the People's Liberation Army and attack the traitor state of Taiwan regardless of the international response. I then demand Hong Kong from the UK, which I know I'll get because I've proven I am not afraid of a military reprisal by the weak capitalist dogs. With HK's economy now under my control I claim to have been 'enlightened' by its methods and declare something to 'socialism with a human face' and partially integrate Western ideals about human rights and economics with Communism and make the entire state a giant corporation that offers cheap chink labor to greedy American industries.

Don't let the media pit you against your fellow man for airspace and viewer bucks. He is a fine Pope and is making the adjustments too the church that should have happened 10 years ago.

>making the adjustments too the church that should have happened 10 years ago
Because the Church should change what it considers to be the eternal truth in order to pander to atheistic NYT readers.

I would say something like "If they think history is boring, dump them" but I would never even begin dating someone if they didn't have an interest in history, so that'd be a moot point.

As long as they have an interest in history as passionate as mine, there really wouldn't be anything /his related to break up with them for. It'd be incredibly autistic to dump one of the incredibly rare and mythical "women who are passionate about history" just because she disagrees with you on it. I might think communists are literally evil, but if she's into USSR history and larping as a commissar, I'd do it with her. (unless she actually is a communist in real life, but htat would be a political reason)

Just because your spouse has different /his/torical opinions than you is not a good reason to break up with them, because unless you are a woman, you will probably never meet someone else with as deep an appreciation for history.

Russia was the only country who gave the oh so feared Ottoman Empire a solid beating for several fucking centuries.

I know nothing of ancient Chinese history but when I read a little I notice there's eunuchs being mentioned EVERYWHERE.

Why are there so many eunuchs in China? Why were people castrated and why/how did they serve the emperor?

>Why are there so many eunuchs in China?
Emperors needed somebody close to them/his royal family that could manage their harem but not fuck his wife or concubines. If you had a dick the potential to humiliate the king was always there.
>Why were people castrated and why/how did they serve the emperor?
Mostly with the royal harem
Often a concubine would give birth to the next emperor so they were pretty important. A kid that was the son of somebody else but thought to to be the child of the emperor could be brought under his biological dads influence which could destroy the entire empire if he was shit.

How did the ones being castrated feel? Was it honorful or a punishment?

When you sit down to actually consider it, Mahayana makes much more sense than Theravada (i.e. HINAYANA)

Nagarjuna changed the game and made Mahayana viable. It was getting bullied on all sides before he BTFO the opposition.

>>3265339
Hinayana reference is referred to the dead buddhist schools whom Mahayana were speaking of. Theravada is not part of Hinayana as its newer than those Hinayana schools.

They're descended from the original Australoids of India. They have no claim to Japan and should fuck off back to their brown shithole IMMEDIATELY!

I guess that the hairy part is probably the result of evolution, helps with the cold of the kuril islands. What I found intriguing is the tattoos the women had around their mouths

Wow OP, you're such an oldfag for digging this shit up again. Difference is – it was funny back in the day.

Why did so many peasants revolt to bring back the monarchy and nobility? What had the Republic done that outraged them?

In a majority Catholic country, do you really think abolishing Catholicism, systemically murdering Priests, abolishing religious marriages, and trying to create your own "cult of the supreme being" is going to work out? On top of all of this, the King of France was a semi-religious position that competed with the Pope for control of Catholicism, was appointed by God, and the republic EXECUTED him.

How extensive were the attacks on the Church? I don't know much about the French Revolution itself compared to the Napoleonic Wars that followed.
