Daladier and Chamberlain were knobs who never took the German threat seriously.

France went full retard with their maginot line and Britain....well, Britain is Britain, don't expect them to fight a land war without a strong ally to do the heavy lifting for them (France had this role in WW1 but failed to be that in WW2)

>they won't go through Belgium this time, trust me

How can you be sure that those are real Roman coin?

On ebay you should assume that everything is fake unless proven otherwise.

>>1357764
>Are they really that easy to find?

Yes. A few hours with a metal detector in some places in Britain will get you a dozen or so.

Most won't be very good quality though.

>>1357764
Most are Chinese fakes

Not OP but IIRC that doesn't really say much. He essentially says he's biased but doesn't do anything to actually prove RCH wrong.

>>1357302

I dunno. He has real historians on the show with him and he uses legit historical sources. How valid any of these are? I don't know, really. It would be fun if somone did a point by point debuking of his videos instead of just screaming about islamophobia.

Then how the hell did Georgian alphabet originate?

>>1357300
That's a fascinating question but I have no real idea..

Two things I've noted about computer fonts though:
- as you said, East Asian scripts were made to be painted on scrolls and such, so they're basically giant characters and thus they're really hard to read at low font sizes (the most complex characters can actually show up as black squares.) Other scripts are easier to read at low font sizes without straining your eyes or zooming in, on top of being simpler to draw and print, and I expect a native internet alphabet to be like that.
- characters having similar widths matters little when they're written by human hands but very important for the text to look good on screen, and ideally two lines with the same number of characters would have the same length with the characters neatly lined up (irrespective of case too). This is something Asian scripts generally do better than Latin scripts by the way. There are equal-width fonts for all languages.


I also expect the internet language to be camel-cased.

With computer screens, pixels can take not only inumerous shapes, but also colours.
In adition to that, information on a screen can move.
When you write something on a sheet of paper, the text is static. But with the internet, you have access to .gifs, videos, .webms and so on.

I think that every word or idea would be expressed by a square that could be as small as a pixel, and each of these units would flash different colours in different sequences.

So for example, a pixel (or larger square made up of other pixels) could flash the sequence red-blue-green, and this would mean "dog".
Then the next pixel just right of the first one is flashing green-blue-red, and that means "barks".

Something like a very long text would look like a lot of squares alligned, and each of them would be flashing different lights.

Depends what kind of politics. The Republic is a necessary starting point. You're better off if you come to terms with the fact that Thrasymachus was right about everything.

No, it's a Jewish heresy's heresy.

>>1356946
It was seen as such in the middle ages, at least by some. But I don't think that a religion that doesn't consider Jesus Christ to be God can be called christian, not even heretically christian.

Judaism + christianity + zoroastrism = Islam

Forgot to add: The Allied countries should have been prosecutors only, not judges.

Because neutral judges couldn't be trusted to give the correct verdict of "guilty."

Probably how quick the Japanese adapted to the changing world despite not being European and being isolated.

Also China being China

Nice b8 m8

Come on. What novel contribution did they make that really enhanced our search for answers that wasn't "just roll with it;suffering is lyfe"

>>1356700
There are millions of people in China alone? The civil war basically stopped and everyone averted their eyes to the Japanese menace. Japan probably would've eventually succeeded had they not pissed off the European powers.

>The civil war basically stopped and everyone averted their eyes to the Japanese menace.
Get a load of this guy lol.

>>1356700
A full campaign into China would require resources that Japan couldn't make on its own. When the allies made it clear they wouldn't be supporting Japan in any manner by embargoing their oil, they were doomed from the start.

The Victorian Era interests me a lot due to the huge amount of change going on throughout the time period. Also I like reading and learning about the Great Game which occurred during that era.

What period are you talking about? "historical" doesn't really tell us much as there is a lot you could be talking about.
