Bubonic plague?

As we know from the enlightenment, in particular Hume, there is no arguable moral basis. Therefore your question is meaningless tripe.

Assassinate the Kaiser and hope it only causes a dissolution of the Reichstag

Fuck my great-great-grandmother.

Probably something like "muh Jeusus was like son of himself so you are wrong and I'm right".

Not all of us religious people believe in fasting.

>>1219364
What religion are you?

It's just a metaphor, bro.

I'm pretty sure they do, unless you're talking about liberal Protestantism.

Nope.

While the Germans had excellent small unit tactics with the introduction of the Sturmtruppen, I don't really know if I can say that any one army was the best for WWI. But one thing is for sure, it wasn't the Austro-Hungarians, Italians, or Russians.

Yes, but he would lost his god powers because of that rock, so it is a one-way road.

Yes.

But then he'll again destroy the laws of the universe so that he may destroy it, and so on, and so on.

Yes.
I don't see why he wouldn't.

You stake out the place and wait for a hole in patrols obviously.

You don't have to be a competent fighter if you're raiding. Presumably they were average armed men in that respect, considering professional armies were not the norm.

Vikings were recognized to be good fighters. They were widely sought after as mercenaries. In the 11th century there were three countries outside Scandinavia recruiting Scandinavian troops, England, Russia, and the Byzantine Empire.

There's not much use in distinguishing between Norsemen and vikings. Raiding and seafaring was a huge part of Norse culture and most Norsemen would have went on a viking expedition at some point in their lives.

During the raiding their combat strength was complete shit. Perhaps because of bad leadership, or perhaps it's true that vikings weren't soldiers at all.
However the viking countries (Norway and Denmark) proved time and time again that, if need, they could muster up an impressive and competent army.
The best example, in my opinion, is the danish conquest of England in 1013.

>some reactions I've seen online makes me wonder why Amerifats think Pearl Harbor was one of the worst things that happened during WWII?
Who the fuck thinks that? The 'Remember Pearl Harbor' thing isn't about "one of the worst thing of the war" happening. It's about getting attacked unprovoked and teaching some slants to eat crow.

>but it was a military target at the end of the day
So were Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Cry more weeb.

you get really good at guitar and then die mysteriously

It means humanities was a mistake

It's what Esau did, selling your birthright for lentils. If you masturbation, you are doing that every time

I think he study as an Orthodox priest, or something along those lines.

I don't really get this either. Why can't he just make people who have free will but are naturally content and peaceful because their minds were designed to like good and really really hate evil?

The only rational explanation is that God allows evil for his amusement, with the handwave'y excuse of

>How was living in the Papal States?
Depends. Certain areas lived the same as the rest of northern italian city states, the rest lived the same as the feudal south. Romagna and the Rome area were fairly prosperous through self government and centralized government respectively, but the rest were very rural and undeveloped. By the 19th century it was a very antiquated place from a cultural, administrative and economic point of view, but it wasn't exactly poor.
It was more oppressive than the more liberal monarchies and the italian republics, but it was no realm of obscurantism either.

For the average joe it was much the same as everywhere else in mid/northern medieval Italy. It wasn't until around the 10th century when the papacy started to consolidate its territory

By lancing them.

Though I'm willing to bet it was much, much less frequent because their endocrine systems, diets and air quality weren't completly fucked beyond repair like ours.

Just imagine the infection rates.
I do believe herbal remedies and compresses were much more common than outright lancing shit.

Whi ch occasion specifically?

Yes.

Library. Visit it.

No.

A. Acceptance of Christianity.
B. Reliance on foreign mercenary armies
C. Unwieldy size. When Rome was just Romans, it was fiercely nationalist expansionist and virile. As its borders expanded Romans within the perimeter got soft and impotent.
