If he hadn't been shunk he may well have lived long enough to see rome become stable and give his princepts/dictator powers back to the senate and consuls and shit instead of his adopted boipucci. this by default would have made him a better ruler, although octavian was pretty brilliant. i wonder if rome would have benefitied from being a republic or if the overall economic benefits of the imperial system made life better...

Caesar was already 66 years old,
Augustus was about to succeed him either way. Nothing would have changed in the long run.

Of course they aren't. What a stupid opinion.

OP, probably te single best book you can read is "Tractatus Logico Philosophicus", by Wittgenstein. It's not really "heavy" math but based on your post, it should be plenty heavy for you, and it literally contains the other two things in your post.

Despite its big scary name, it isn't even long - it's all of 75 pages. Moreover, it's directly related to this >>1442010 and later results of Gödel, but the tractatus has the advantage that it can actually be read by a general audience and they can actually get something out of it if they try. Have fun!

Hatred for germans was pretty high during both world wars
They weren't put into concentration camps unlike japanese but were still hated

> Funny enough, the guy who listed Prussia, always kept Prussia, even during WW2
Probably because american people didn't have the capacity to figure out that Prussia was part of Germany

How do I do this? I have a family tree with around 20-30 registered births/deaths of my family, but how do I check the validity and go back even further? The document which outlines my tree has many sources all listed in a bibliography, complete with a coat of arms, including descriptor and which family it would have been awarded to.

They actually used Nobel 808 plastic explosive that was captured from SOE operatives.

Superior British engineering.

Huh that looks like "Ben Ri Da" which I think should mean like "Da Ri Ben" or something, or big Japan in Chinese. My Chinese is rusty. If we go by the same rules the other part should read "Zhao He Shi San Nian" which means something thirteen years. Sorry my Chinese sucks. I think this might actually be Japanese.

I'm only beginning Japanese, but from what I can make out it says Nihondai、sensanjyu. Can't make out the last characters, but the first one is Shi - to know.
Japan Big Year Thirteen something. But the Big Japan makes me think it's Chinese.

>they knew more than you'd think, but had huge blind spots when it came to x, y, and z
Same as every other retrospective look at a civilization.

Dont know, but you should do some reading on the Venetian and Genoese banking families, often known as Europes "Black Nobility". The Guelphes are one such dynasty. These families bankrolled the Amsterdam Central Bank, Dutch East India Company and made Britain into the financial merchant banking powerhouse that became the "British" Empire. Rothschilds too.

Because China had a huge army that could crush them if they really wanted to.

second because Chinese technology, literary culture and everything else was often genuinely more advanced than their neighbors, at least during the early period

>>1439865
>Why would any elites allowed themselves to be cucked, and why did no one claim superiority over China?
The Japanese certainly did or at least viewed China as a equal early on.

To Sinicized cultures civilization was synonymous with Sinic culture.

You might as well ask why Germanic speakers claimed to be legitimate successors of Rome.

bump, im also interested in this

also, nice dubs

Why bother, it's obviously all wrong and made up. No one knows, his father is meant to be God for fucks sake.

>OP is the faggot

I know this is way less in depth than what you're after, but no and as far as I'm aware - no.

There are certainly movements that call for a less strict interpretation when it comes to women though. For example, no Quranic verse actually calls for the burqa - it just calls for women to show 'modesty' - and there's a fairly identical passage calling on men to display modesty as well (24:30 and 24:31).

But for a version that might align with western concepts of feminism? I can't see how its possible, you'd have to interpret things so loosely and shake it up that it wouldn't be sunni Islam anymore.

Absolutely

One Muslim feminist in particular, Hassan, has some fantastic arguments on the egalitarian nature of the Qur'an. I can upload the pdf later today if you're interested

>>1439049
It depends on how you view western feminism.

Thanks to 250 years of isolation, the Japanese managed to preserve a lot of styles, some that date back very far.

If you want some surplus reading on how Stalin rose to power and a great depection of his personal life and how it changed over time I'd recommend The Red Tsar by Simon Sebag Montefiore.
Communism is pretty dead in this day and age, the chances for it to return outright are pretty much nill. Many of the same people are still in power though.
Can't comment on the book as I haven't read it.

Yes, the communist party of the Russian Federation is the second biggest party in Russia.

Ironically given the 4chan perspective of global politics it's probably more likely to return to Russia than to come for the first time to anywhere in the western world.

Bumping before bed, for great justice of course.
