What caused the hippie movement and counterculture to start right after the assassination of JFK? Up to the start of 1964 early 60s society was the same as it was in the 50s

inb4 someone posts the discredited meme of Irish people being descended from Iberians
>>
Darker Irish are descendants of the original population that came from Middle east/Iberia the others are later Germanic's.

The only one in that picture that looks middle eastern is the third guy on the bottom right. The rest just look tan or more Iberian.
What did they do with bodies of dead soldiers during WW2? In prolonged urban battles such Stalingrad for example did they just let the corpses lie there or what?

They left them there and depending on the occupying force they burned them

Dead soldiers were usually retrieved if possible, even urban battles didn't consisted of 24/7 non-stop fighting after all

Seeing as I'm the only person who really exists and you're all illusions created by my dying mind to occupy the milliseconds before it shuts down forever, leaving no trace of human existence left to the vast, uncaring universe, I'd say alone, really.

Muskets outranged the shit out of bows.
There's a reason Nomadshits stopped being a problem by the late 16th Century.

The Old Decanter Globe Mistery

Hi guys, i've been trying to find this for a couple of hours but it was in vain. Maybe you could help me.
This old decanter globe has been in my family even before my grandfather was born (He was born here in Argentina in 1922 from Italian fathers)
His fathers were from Italy and came to Argentina in 1882 from the port of Havre in france, they where (I think) from Turin or someplace in the north of Italy.
I've found that the decanter is very similar to what you could find in Google as "French old globe Limoges decanter" Limoges is a place in France where a type of porcelain is made and maybe this globe could have been made there. I think my grandfather grandfather could have bought this in France before embarking in 1882 (The father of my grandfather was 7 in 1882).
The decanter has no trade mark, labels or whatsoever.
But this is the kind of weird part: The political division of the countries in southamerica doesn't correspond to any map of political division I've seen or studied in school or college.
In Europe you can see the Austro-Hungarian Empire wich was disolved in 1914, so this globe must be from before that year.
There's no Paraguay or Bolivia. So the territory is similar to the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, but Uruguay is already formed, Uruguay as part of the Viceroyalty of Rio de la Plata and Uruguay independence was signed in 1820s.
The contour of the place now called Argentina is very similar to the United Provinces of Rio de la Plata, but I think this decanter can't be from bofore 1825. (To be continued...)

Part Two: Argentina is divided in two Argentina and the Patagonia, were indigenous use to live, so this say that the globe must be from before the Conquest of the Desert (The Conquest of the Desert was a military campaign directed mainly by General Julio Argentino Roca in the 1870s with the intent to establish Argentine dominance over Patagonia, which was inhabited by indigenous peoples. So we killed al the indigenous from the Patagonia during the campaign).
The intrigue is killing me, is this map wrong? it was originaly painted like that? or maybe a kid did the political division just for fun, but if a kid made it I'm sure he would have commited more errors and it wouldn't finish painting the entire globe. Can some help me with this?

What is the greatest human virtue? Is is faith? Is it courage? Is it hope? Is it wisdom? Or... maybe something else? What is your opinion?

Greatest as in its most useful from a biological perspective? I would argue that it is persistence.

Definitely a good choice. Other alternative is being an intelligent, but without both it's a very dead end.

Lenin promised Finland its independance before the revolution started. Of course he did it with the expectation that Finland would turn communist and come back to the communist fold eventually.

Why there is so much population density in the Benelux area? Was it always like that? Was there another regions in Europe that had a very large population densities like this regions, but now have decreased values? If so, why?

It lays on the Rhine delta making it superb farmland. The Netherlands ecspecially is a major producer of food and Dutch are the tallest ethnicity in Europe because historically speaking they've suffered very few famines. Places like the Saxony that touch the Elbe might rival it with Hamburg and Bremen being examples of this. It's also a major hub for seafaring trade due to its location in conjunction with the English Channel and the North Sea.

Pretty much this
>>1330525
These lands are incredibly fertile, to the point where we're in the top 10 agricultural producers on the planet to this very day despite our size.
Also, if you want regions that match us in population density, try this: London, Paris and Mexico City have a total population comparable to that of the Netherlands or Belgium. And they're CITIES.

Has anything replaced God? Some people say money, some people say sex. Of course, science is always a possibility--on that subject, should "science" and "technology' be used interchangeably? When people put science on pedestal, are they really just putting technology on a pedestal? Or this is distinction itself of no importance?

Possibly secular humanism.
>Putting science on a pedestal
The teenagers and redditors who put ""science"" on a pedestal typically just like looking at pictures of an andromeda or a random fact shared by a "WE LOVE SCIENCE" type page on FB or Twitter.
