Pakistan minus the Iranic areas is India you fool.

Pakis are literally Muslim Indians.

>>1301380
Most of it was literally India even after islam. The only thing that makes modern Pakistan not india is the fact that the Republic of India claims this name and Pakistan doesn't want to be part of it. That's the only reason we have to use words like Hindustan, South Asia or Indian Subcontinent that were direct synonyms with India in the past.

That said, India/Hindustan is massively varied and in no way monolithic. In this aspect it's better compared to Europe than a single european country or region. The regions of Sindh and Punjab were one of those indian cultures and arguably where it all started for the indians.

Balochistan and Afghanistan (both the paki and the independent part) are more like a border region between iranic/central asian world and the hindustan.

>By what process were the Germans able to overcome their tribalistic nature and unify into more centralized kingdoms?

IIRC, the ideological shift went something like

>I hate Krauts who disagree with me, but I hate other countries even more

>By what process were the Germans able to overcome their tribalistic nature and unify into more centralized kingdoms?

Good question. I assume like a lot of civilizations. Tribal societies become more efficient, with the development of more efficient infrastructure with a more concentrated societal hierarchy, and develop an army. Pretty much the same process that a lot of ancient societies had to undertake.

Also, if you're really from Central African Republic, I'm surprised your English is at that standard.

He probably speaks French, and English is just a peasant dialect of French.

>>1301209
According to the book he wrote, he's got perfect judgement and is literally always right
So I guess those tribals had it coming, or something

Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the New Millennium by Bart Ehrman.

I found it to be fantastic, and I was pleased with how much of the sayings and radical theology of Jesus were found to be consistent with the historical analysis by Ehrman.

He's one of the foremost New Testament scholars and historians.

I also recommend How Jesus Became God, also by him, on the subject of early Christianity.

Another book I recommend is When God Spoke Greek: The Septuagint and the Making of the Christian Bible by Timothy Michael Law, based on the usage of the Greek translation of the Old Testament by the early Churches and New Testament writers themselves.

>>1299829
Thanks. I think I'd already heard his (Ehrman's) name, but I don't remember the context. I'll look for those books.

>>1299764
Nothing by that cunt Bart Ehrman. He's an absolute fraud.

Peer-review, mostly.
Also, if you can translate other texts, without sounding silly.

Often in a language we already know exist merchant vocabulary lists for those we don't.
From that few words you can usually reverse engineer other words and the grammar.

Often Languages as well are close enough that you can transfer stuff over. Hebrew and Arab are for example REALLY close and it easy to learn the other if you know one of them.

There are some ancient languages where neither is the case. And guess what: We don't have a clue what they say.

Today I learned that Cape Horn is named such not because it is pointy and resembles a horn, but because the Dutch ship that first went around it was called the Horne.

I learned about a ship named the Cape Horn and that Baltimore is apparently in Maryland.
