What if Lincoln was never assassinated and went through with his plan of deporting former slaves? How would the history of America and the world unfold if the US was a completely white country after the civil war and there was never any civil rights movement?

I hate this meme. The CRM wasn't just niggers. They weren't even the most vocal group, but they're cherry picked to shit by historians. There still would've been a CRM. It probably would have gone a lot smoother. Things probably would have been a lot better in the U.S. had Lincoln survived. Reconstruction certainly would have gone better, but I'm not going to make speculation about anything later than that.

Did the mutual choosing of time & place for battle actually exist, /his/, during the Ancient/Medieval ages or is it just a running meme?
Seems pretty stupid that party A would meet with party B and say "GREETINGS, FOEMAN, LET US AGREE TO MEET HERE ON THE MORROW. WE'LL BE ON A HILL. YOU GUYS GET THE FLAT GROUND."
"Ok."
Like, one party would hold the advantages while another wont and then they'd just agree on it.

I think it was more like army A marching to siege somewhere and then army B marches towards army A where then a battle happens.

How come half of the Sunni Arab world was unable to stop an army a fraction of its size hailing from a strip of land not much larger than New Jersey? Was this loss as completely humiliating as it seems, or was there a silver lining?

What's the name of an ideology that argues the ideal society is one where the authority of government belongs to every paterfamilias, and that culture should go back to being largely based on kin and kith?
I came to this conclusion independently when I realized every problem in the world can ultimately be attributed to the decay of the family. What other thinks have contributed to this sort of line of thought?

/his/ I have a question about my ancestors.
A few years back my grandmother had one of those ancestry DNA tests to see where your ancestors are from. Her parents were from Wales so I guess she was expecting them to have all been from the British Isles or Western Europe. According to the test however she had family in North Africa (I'm pretty sure it was modern day Libya) that ended up migrating to the Britain at the end of the Roman Empire. So my question is was there any reasonably large migration of North Africans to Britain around this time? If not for what reasons may my ancestors have moved from North Africa to Britain?

him, ghazali and wahhab are the only one with enough balls to bring islam back to its root, free without any kuffar influences. even now his teachings are still relevant and practiced by various mujahideen

I like how they projected modesty by strategically placing the hands. Now we will never know if Jesus was a plus-size model.
Joking aside, calm down. We may not be able to explain how it was made yet, but how would a shroud wrapping a body make a projection on a plane.

Does anyone else, when reading about the English Civil War, get the ISIS vibe from the Roundhead iconoclasm? They ransacked houses looking for all religious images and burning them, they literally shot up statues with guns, they smashed stained windows, they burned all crosses they could find, they sliced up all religious paintings, they made alters into roads, shit was insane.
They also just seemed crazy in general
>The Harleys made sure the vicar of their local church at Brampton was of their kind. At the end of the 1630's a man called Stanley Gower was the incumbent; on arrival in 1634 he had set about overlooking those regulations of the Laudian Church offensive to the godly. He wouldn't let his parishioners stand during the Gospel, nor bow at the name of Jesus; he left the absolution out of the prayer book's service, he refused to rail the alter, still treating it as a movable communion table, and he told his congregation not to kneel in prayer and not to remove their hats.

Of all the heroes involved with the Trojan war he was pretty much the one who did the least bad shit.
There is some irony in the fact that troy's best fighter was a peace loving stoic man who just wanted to defend his home. He was bound by family duty to defend his brother despite what a douche he was.
Under any other circumstances he would have probably been good friends with Achillies.

doubt it. Achilles was such a sublime egomaniac that he didn't and couldn't really have friends, just followers or enemies.

Why was Aztec religion so fucking nightmarish?
We all have our war gods and gruesome stories but gods that are threatening to destroy the world unless you constantly feed them rivers of blood is horrific.
How do you even maintain a society built on such a ghoulish spiritual foundation?

And they're still like that, the murder rates in Mexico and central America (a side question, why isn't Mexico considered central America?) are through the roof, the cartels use chainsaws and razor wire as execution tools and even after they converted to catholicism they had to come up with macabre shit like Santa Muerte. Those retards literally worship the grim reaper.
