Sahara desert is an inevitable geological structure, due to its geographic position.
Lake Chad loss is a combination of climatic and human factors.
Great Rift valley is a tectonic formation.
Lake Victoria is the most visible part of a huge hydrographic basin.
North Africa is attached to Africa (unfortunately).
The rest can burn in nuclear hellfire

How come short fantasy peoples are so often associated with gold? Dwarfs, gnomes, leprechauns etc.
>>3243321
>Greediness=bad
>Shortness=bad
Where does gold come from? Mines, mostly.
Who'd be great miners? Short people, because they don't need big tunnels.
Pretty sure those three examples are all related. If you look at other small mythological creatures, they weren't associated with gold/jewels, whereas other creatures are. I think the more relevant characteristic is living underground. For example, Hades is associated with wealth in Greco-Roman mythology (where the prefix "Pluto" even means wealth).
How does a libertarian society deal of the shitting-on-the-beach problem?

How exactly was Josip Broz Tito able to capitalize on, and maintain the unity of Yugoslavia?
>>3242851
Based Göring
>>3242851
Through a secret police called the UDBA, that killed everyone that sympathised with the old Yugoslavian Royal Government or the Croatian Nazi Emigration.
There was no unity in Yugoslavia, Serbs hated the Croats because they betrayed the alliance, sided with the nazis and slaughtered around half a milion of Serbs in concentration camps. Croats hated the Serbs because they were treated as their vassals and Serbs considere everyone that speaks their serbian language (croatian is VERY similar to serbian, identical even) but doesn't identify as a Serb, for a kin traitor. Same shit with muslims, Muslims hated the Serbs because Serbs killed of the Ottomans in the wars for liberation, but those Ottoman Slavs that survived became the newly coined muslims (later Bosniaks or Bosnian muslims). Serbs considered them kin traitors as well because they spoke natively serbian, but considered themselves first as Ottomans/Turks, then muslim, now Bosniaks or Bosnian muslims.
When Tito died, the shit had to be settled, once and for all. However Burgers intervened with NATO, so it's still not settled.
>>3243094
So apparently the whole Yugoslavian conflict is based upon Serbs considering others as traitors of kin and trying to integrate them into their own nation, eventhough they are of different religion and/or culture.

Are there any sources on the structure and organization of the roman army?

Absolute shit load.
Notitia Dignitatum is the most famous source for the later Roman army, and is a unique document. It details command structures, ranks, shield designs for each unit, fort locations etc.

There is a lot that could be said about the writings of Karl Marx, whether it be The Communist Manifesto or Das Kapital. However, when his ideas are brought up, they're usually bogged down to being nothing more than the ramblings of a crazy old man, with many of his societal theories being placed on the losing side of history, due to their practical applications. Which isn't something that can be disputed.
However, I wish to know how the philosophers of /his/ feel in regards to his critique of modern capitalism and society. Did any of his criticisms ring true? Do you feel that his ideologies are an important lens to view modern society through? Should we interpret Marx at all?
His greatest problem if you ask me is that he was a radical Rousseauean, e.g a radical social constructionist.
I find it hard to believe that humans are tabula rasa, given that we are primate apes. The fact that we have language, seems to me to give us the illusion that we are perfectly malleable because our language is perfectly malleable.

When did you realise that globalisation has had a profoundly positive impact on human beings?
>Globalisation, more than anything else, has reduced the number of extreme poor in India by two hundred million and in China by three hundred million since 1990
Jeffrey Sachs, “The end of poverty”
The only people who think economic globalisation is a bad thing are commies and the alt-right. This is fortunate, however, since these two groups of people are completely irrelevant. La Penn was destroyed in France, Britain is floundering in its own mess, and Jared Kushner has sidelined Steve Bannon completely.
Do what you will, for we neo-liberals have already won.
>>3242531
The problem with Globalism is that it benefits the global poor at the expense of the local middle class, and is therefor always going to be opposed in rich countries.
im brave enough to say it:
"globalism has a mixed legacy".
What do you think about German WW2 paranormal weapons like this ? Could they exist ?
I found some info about project called Die Glocke (The Bell).
It was supossed to be 4-5 metres high and it should have 3 meters in diameter and made out of unknown metal. There were 2 metalic cylinders in which was unknown liquid called "Xerum 525". "Xerum 525" should be purple colored liquid that was radioactive and stored inside lead containers. Because of that during the tests , it could be active only for 2 minutes , because the bell was generating sort of radioactive or electromagnetic waves.(also few scientists died during first tests). Room in which was the bell tested was covered in ceramic tiles and rubber mats. The mats had to replaced after every test because they melted down . Then prisoners from concentration camps had to clean the room with salt solution.
It was supposed to be tested and created in occupied Czechoslovakia (my home country <3 ) , in Silesia to be correct . At the end of WW2 it was moved somewhere else by the leader of the project SS general Hans Kammler.Most of the people beleive that it was moved to nazi base in Antarctica.
I will post more of the pics in the replies.
This is how the testing area looks today. It look like ones that nazis used at their rocket sites

Are tanks the most retarded, pointless weapon in history? I can't imagine how anyone ever thought they would be a good idea, they're literally steel coffins.
They are a situational tool

You are right, tanks were a meme from the start. Every military on earth was scammed into adopting them and the jig is still not up 100 years later. Only you can see the truth.
