I'd be surprised if any of it was real in the first place tbqh

i'd feel dead inside

>>1291933
Depends on what turned out to be real.

If it was something I'd never heard of, or even considered, I'd probably just stand there dumbfounded.

Because of a lack of a large body of water to facilitate trading

Probably the same reasons Europeans didn't advance until middle easterners came.

>>1291657
"advance"

They were fine as they were. This "civilization" crap is destroying the earth

They fell into the "oldest alliance" meme and were betrayed by the Eternal Anglo.

The idea of a "Portuguese empire" is a myth.

The entirety of Portuguese success was caused by Brazil, which they only got by a stroke of pure luck (also known as Spanish being retarded). After they lost glorious Brazil there was simply nothing of value in their entire empire, including in the European part.

fun fact the first romans was ruled by kings who was black. Tarquinius superbus the last black king of rome was overthrown by the whiteys who ruled rome for a couple of centuries. Until sulla the great black general overthrew the whiteys and exterminated them in the social war. Now blacks was running rome again and a whitey wasnt seen in the region again until it was sacked by alaric and the whiteys eventually killed or sent the black romans to africa. Julius caesar was black.

Ancient warfare, where you actually have to destroy someone's body with your own body, while they are desperately trying to do the same to you.

If you look at the found bones, medieval combat was more than horrific, getting beaten to death with a mace is a lot worse than dying quickly from a gunshot

>single dominant power?
>18th Century

pick precisely one.

The whole point of the Congress of Vienna was to establish five powers, none of which was meant to be strong enough to dominate the others.

>>1293060
Looking for single dominant world powers before the age of superpowers is fuck stupid. Only the US was able to pull that off and very recently.

>>1293079
That's the 19th century. And it only worked for a few decades. And Britain was still the clear "winner" of the 19th century.

Can you show me the website where /his/torians make these collages? I've been trying to find it again since these threads stopped being made often.

The first depiction of Tanit weirdly enough are found in pre-punic Sardinia and date back to the XIII-VIII century bc, while Tanit only appears around the 4th century bc in the Punic world.

Fabians, and reformist at large, will say yeah.

>>1290040
Is it true Karl Marx said that? Lmao, no.
Is it true that democracy is the only road to socialism? Debateable but I would say no, historically reformism just gets you deposed by the CIA whereas revolution can potentially put control into the hands of workers even if it's been a struggle to keep control in the hands of workers.

No. True revolution will be only achieved trough the bloodshed of the bourgeois.

How can the humanities be obsolete if humans still exist?

>>1283566
The ultimate goal of a technologically advanced society is to make humans vestigial.

Outdated =! Obsolete

You're not explaining me why can't state allocate resources effectively though.

>>1291066
I think once we've maxed out our technology far enough it can be possible. The problem with the USSR, the most famous example of a planned economy, was that a lot of the consumer goods we take for granted today after decades of research (which, admittedly, was driven by firms doing research but also with hefty american govt funding as well iirc). The other problem is that the soviet union got wrekt by Germany in wwii economically and demographically and then had to continue directing investment into heavy industry, a legacy of Stalinist development, to compete with the US during the Cold War, which always assured that the government, even if it wanted to, had little money to channel into producing solid consumer goods that might have increased the perceived quality of soviet life and halted the sense of stagnation in the final years of the USSR.
