Must be mentioned of course. They have good entry level YT-videos on philosophy, art, psychology, etc. Very simplified and somewhat cult-like, but a good starting point nevertheless.

Know nothing about art? This documentary series is a well-made introductory course with some of the most famous artists. Make sure to check out the Bernini-episode in particular.

Remember, entry level means it can be pretty shitty but still serve as a good starting point, if only to get one interested in learning more.

Could Europe have defeated an all-out Mongol invasion?
Say by Kublai Khan? Would Crusaders and knights and all that even stand a chance?

History is usually written in an incredibly Eurocentric manner so I'm curious if Europe was even that powerful in the 13th century or if it was second rate compared to east Asia (was already second rate to the Islamic world since it was beaten in the Crusades).

Well, the late 13th century invasions of Hungary and Poland failed pretty hard. I'm pretty sure that was only the Nogai horde, but it was still a major Mongolian effort.

So, probably. Not to mention that Mongolian unity had cracked pretty hard by the time of Kublai Khan, and without it, they aren't nearly as tough.

Can you give the actual reasoning and evidence of people who say the holocaust happened and those who say it didn't? Both seem to make a lot of claims but neither seem to provide much evidence.

I know this sounds like a /pol/-esque question of why Asians are bad at warfare, but I'm genuinely curious. The famous conflicts of the Dark Age to Renaissance era Orient are factional wars within their own territory to establish control. You see this with the Three Kingdoms and Warring States.

Meanwhile in Europe, established kingdoms routinely fought each other for various reasons and also engaged in the middle east against Islamic forces.

The reason I'm asking this is because I've been looking into historical weaponry and Asian armaments are far more static than their European counterparts -- and seem much less practical.

What gives?

Probably because the far East is just that: far. To get from China to another major advanced civilization you'd have to either cross massive inhospitable mountains, traverse arid deserts and massive, nomad infested steppes, or sail across large stretches of sea e.g. The Indian Ocean.

Meanwhile, for Europeans to contact middle eastern civilizations all they had to do was sail across the Mediterranean. And of course the Middle East was a gateway to India and to a lesser extent Africa.

Basically it's just geography. If the mountains west of China or the deserts to the north didn't exist, or if the Pacific Ocean was just a narrow sea with Iberia and Africa on the other side, I'm sure at least one dynasty might have tried conquering a land further away. China did conquer its neighbors on more than one occasion, and the Mongols obviously engaged in conquest. The Japanese are a modern example of eastern conquerors though in the age of aircraft carriers and jet engines geographic limits became less important, of course.

Its because Japan Korea and China saw themselfs as some meme tier civilization and everyone else is a filthy barbarian who doesn't deserve their time

Also Vietnam Conquered the Champa
>>
>>1364883
Another factor is the fact that Chinese culture sort of discouraged the idea of independent nations. If I remember correctly, the very idea of "China" for most of history has been a vast empire ruled by an emperor ordained by heaven. This mandate of heaven is their equivalent of the divine right of kings, from which they derived the leader's right to rule. Most wars in China therefore were not fought to establish independent kingdoms, but to stake one's claim to the Mandate of Heaven - and thus make all of China accept your rule. Even outside invaders worked within this system and were eventually "Sinicized" - that is, made Chinese. The Mongols and the Yuan/Qing dynasties are the primary examples of this.

Meanwhile in the West, the idea of Rome was a bit similar. There was a great and powerful empire, and the one with the right to rule it was chosen by God. It's no coincidence that so many rulers styled themselves with variations of Caesar.. But for whatever reason, the Imperial system didn't hold up over time in the West. Perhaps the peoples were too diverse to be absorbed into a uniform empire too easily. Perhaps the great migrations aggravated that problem. I'm no expert so I don't know.

They do and usually fail, because some workers are simply more intelligent than others

Just what are materialists saying, really? That all of this is just matter? Okay, sure, but subjectivity is obviously real, it's obviously not JUST physical bits and pieces bumping around, they obviously contribute to a mental component even if we don't posit a "soul".

Are physicalists this fucking dumb? Either they're denying consciousness exists, or they're accepting the material has a mental, subjective aspect as well.

The mental component is "just" physical, yes. Magic is not real.
>>
All matter is only a temporary formation of particles. All conditional things are subject to change so when the physical body dies, the energy (which can be scientifically calculated) must go somewhere and or change into something new.

A dead body has no life, so where foes the energy that keeps it alive go? It cannot just disappear into nothing because matter is not created or destroyed
>>
>>1380601

The "mental" component is 100% physically unnecessary, and yet it remains.

Give reasons why the Roman Empire was the greatest ancient civilization
85 posts and 21 images submitted.

From 800 BC to 1 AD the western world experienced massive geographical expansion. In the 8th century BC italy was just a bunch of villages around the mediterranean sea with a population of a few hundred thousands, by the 1st century the Western World covered 5 million square kilometers, had thousands of cities, including some of several hundred thousand inhabitants and massive social and economic change. Living standards improved for a population that reached at least 60 million upwards to 100 million people. In terms of population and territory the western world expanded by a factor of 100 times over these 800 years.

Rome 1 AD had 1 million inhabitants, in 1500 AD, it had 200,000 inhabitants.
