Who was more powerful?
Stalin, an ancient pharaoh or an ancient Chinese emperor?
i don't think any other ruler has ever exerted as much power and control over their state as stalin effectively did
>>1556667
>Pol Pot
>Turkmenbashi
>His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Alhaji Dr. Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, CBE
Do you mean relative to their time period? Because technology meant Stalin had a far greater grasp than the Emperor physically could.
Who else thinks Pikes and Guns don't go well together in warfare?
They went well together for like 3 centuries. That's longer than Macedonian Pikemen were about.
>>1556502
other morons, i guess
If only you were born in 16th century, you would revolutionize warfare!
As historians, should you ever deny >muh lived experience?
?
who is denying
>>1556476
Yes of course
Of course not, it's not like they experienced distorted reality. Taking these experiences into account and then comparing those with contrasting ones helps establish history and infer under what conditions (i.e. biases) they had those experiences.
So what do you suppose happened to all of those communists and socialists that got into street fights with the SA in 1920s and 1930s doing everything they could to oppose Hitler?
Did they all end up getting drafted and dying in the eastern front fighting the Soviet Union?
If so, kek.
Some ended in Spain or France
Some found death in Germany before nazis went cool
Some found death after nazis went cool
Some served their time by betraying their country while fighting along the russians
Maybe some of them ended up being assimilated by the nazis

Political opponents are the reason concentration camps were created in the first place.
>>1556409
Some, particularly some of those who'd spent time in the concentration camps joined the Nazi party. Not because of a genuine change of allegiance but because it was a way of making a demonstrable show to the Party that they had 'reformed' which would then enable to get a job and get on with their lives.
And some of the most devout supporters of the Nazi's never joined the Party.
For example a teacher from a small Hessian town by the name of Hilderbrandt and a NSDAP party member recounts that he had joined because he was an anti-Nazi, a former member of the Social Democratic party and the Nazi's had the records to prove this. For him, party membership meant getting a job, it also meant lessening the risk of persecution. He could claim to have relinquished his previous convictions.
>“After the war every non member of the Party was an 'anti-Nazi hero'. Some of these heroes weren't Nazis because of the sixty cents a month dues and for no other reason.”
”What does opposition mean? Employers opposed the Party because it raised wages, capitalists because it cut profits, loafers because it found jobs;..."
If Nasser had been successful in his ambitions, would the world be a better place today?
>United Arab superpower from the Atlantic to the Gulf
>strongly secularist, Muslims, Jews and Christians all have equal rights and equal religious freedoms
>being a united state Jews have full citizenship and the freedom to settle and live wherever they want, whether Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Morocco, or Baghdad
>Christian and Muslim Palestinians can live freely in their homeland and visit holy sites
>Suppression of all forms of islamism, no wahhabists, salafists, Muslim Brotherhood, or ISIS
>none of the chaos we see today
>Arab is the dominant language and culture, everyone of all religions united by language

He's honestly my greatest hero, I wish he had been more successful
>>1556329
Panarabism is bullshit and you know it. Moroccan Arabic is hardly the same language as Iraqi Arabic.
>no Muslim Brotherhood
no way that could have ever succeeded, they're too powerful
Arabization is cultural genocide.
Who was the best member of the triumvirate?
>>1556322
Caesar
>>1556322
Pompey was pretty based. He hid his ulterior motives well and, at least nominally, defended Republican values.
>>1556322
We all know who was winner at the end. But at the beginning Pompeius was probably the one with the biggest power and influences. After all he was already The Great one. Krassus money had a lot of impact on keeping this trio together. Caesar exploited benefits from the triumvirate most efficiently. I wonder how their story would roll on if not the death of Krassus.
How do you, personally, reconcile your every day conception of reality with the understanding that nature is most likely probably nonlocal and performs some kind of action-at-a-distance
>implying things exist outside of perception anyway
Wew lad.
I don't get it. Is this something I'm just too stupid to grasp? Why would this have any effect on my day to day life or views about reality?
>>1556323
Simply put, there is some mechanism that produces nonlocal correlations at space-like separated distances between entangled quantum states, destroying any classical conception of locality and separability in nature. It does not transmit matter and/or energy, it does not make use of superluminal matter transport, but it does seem to invoke some kind of superluminal causation and information transfer

It's Caracalla.
What was his greatest contribution?
>>1555944
Nothing, he's a meme and a lightweight. He criticized Rousseau but he is eons away from him in terms of influence and, in my personal opinion, substance.
>>1555944
He fucked Frederick the Great.
banter master supreme.
/lit/ was Hitler an atheist? Please give proof to either argument.
>>1555937
He came from a Catholic background and was praised by the Pope, but at the same time Italy was fascist and friendly to the NSDAP, so I don't know.
Yes, he blamed the Jews for killing Christ.
>>1555960
The only thing I could find was this but it's about the Nazi party as a whole and I'm not sure how credible this is.
