They were never fully integrated and relied on the popularity and will of a strongman to hold the disparate states together.

The same thing that always happen

Polk is such a meme president. Only a fool would think the measure of a president's greatness is measured in the acres of territory he acquired.

>>1164944
I'm pretty sure he does rank in the top ten on most lists. He only served one term which is probably why he doesn't get as much memorializing. I grew up near his birth place so we learned shit ton about him so we definitely learned a lot about him in school and he was always one of my favorite.

Polk was a mistake.

Populating the southwest stretched whites out too thin and left us defenseless.

Southwest is becoming mexican in all but name.

That's a nice girl.

of course, it is impossible to answer the question if truth doesn't exist

i don't know

Possibly

No

>How credible would be an alternative history, where the western roman empire survived in north Africa?
Not credible at all because that isn't what happened.

It would feed us with more we wuz kings memes and funny BLM posts on Twitter.
I approve.

>>1164835
There were Romano-Berber kingdoms in North Africa that were basically Berber chieftains with Roman cities who feigned loyalty to the ERE. ERE Africa survived for alil while.

North Africa was a heavily profitable and Romanized area. Its completely plausible in some alternative hisfuck that Italy is taken and the remnant rump state is in NA. Happened in Dalmatia and North Gaul.

Pop history serves a purpose I guess. Nobody under 30 watches television anymore anyway.

>>1164723

History channel has always been crap. When it was "good" it just showed documentaries that they licensed to show on their channel. You can now find all those docs on youtube. "Great Minds" is actually funny, and probably the only show I've liked that they produced themselves. Even that I just watch on youtube.

TLDR; Go to sleep Spencer we like your show.

>>1164723
I love dan harmon, but this is not all that great, but certainly better than the history channel standard. I could enjoy watching this, the reality shows are actually cancer.

>>1164470
no. if that were true they would be called the protesters, not protestants retard

>>1164470
Yeah, Rome likes to make everything about her, as most whores do.

>>1164470
No. contrary to the popular belief, Protestant are not at any way different to the Catholic teachings, rather they're a denomination which formed after Luther expressed contempt at the state of Catholic monasteries in Germany. They found they were swarming with Hymenoptera, thus naming their brand of religion

>Protest
>ants

Luther knew that in order to stop an influx of further heresies, such as dreadful Paraponera clavata, he had to act fast.

Way better.

It is just a name.

No Asian or African involvement.

The real answer is: the term World War was created by narratives that favored nation-states.

As the Seven Years War was fought by non-nation states, it didn't count.

That's what I read at least.
>>1163533
Indians & Flips were involved.

And before you say: "But their colonizers made them" note that India wasn't yet colonized though Allied Princes fought in behalf of European partners in India while in the Philippines, when the colonial capital of Manila fell to the Brits, the natives declared a capital in the northern Philippines and continued fighting the Brits guerilla style, independent of Spanish leadership since they saw it as a holy war versus Protestant Heretics.

Because the CoE is still triggered by the Pope and the Irish are Catholic, so it's the only way to direct there anger.

>>1163332
Did they try and convert them? They could have forced Catholics to pay more in taxes until they eventually converted like Muslims did with Christians.

>>1163317
Because they aren't people and will never be

They didn't know about germ theory or basic hygiene for that matter.

Well for one thing they had no concept of germs.

Not OP but don't you think in the millenia-long history of warfare, someone somewhere must've thought "hey, let's put shit on our arrowheads and see what happens"?

It was mostly just LARPing faggots like Himmler that gave the Nazis an "occult" image. It gave them some pretty cool imagery/iconography but that's about it.

>>1162911
It's Himmler's bullshit. Even Hitler made fun of him for it.

>>1162911
What the other posters said, Himmler had a boner for occult stuff and was into pseudo-archaeology that backed up his beliefs. There's no evidence for Hitler or any other high-ranking Nazis being interested.

Diogenes is the best philosopher desu. He totally BTFO Socrates (or was Aristoteles, I don't remember) all the time.

>>1162780
Socrates has some of the most twisted logic ever.

"If I'm not corrupting the youth why haven't they come forward and told everyone =D"

"You say I am the only person corrupting the youth. Well than things must be pretty good if there is only one bad egg in the whole carton!"

>>1162635
Hitlers command structure is inherently fucked just by the fact that the SS exists and it can overrule Army commands.

How and why a bunch of German elites with Vons in the middle of their names got memed into obeying a fucking Clerk and his Austrian Peasant boss is beyond me.

>>1162650
So yeah, do you think if Hitler and his retardedness wasn't there could Germany have won the war?

I think if they had focused on taking out Britain, and then had supported Rommel they could have launched a two-pronged invasion into Russia

I can also provide provide further information if that would be helpful.
It is from Ryuichi Hotta's paper on "s-Pluralisation in Early Middle English and word-frequency".

I'm going to attempt to explain box plots and be of no particular help since I'm just working off my own notes and might be wrong.
The center line is the median value and divides 50% of the values from the other 50% of the values.
The box encompasses 25% of the values on either side of the line and is the interquartile area.
The pinched area is a 95% confidence interval for the median.
Whiskers vary I guess. Generally they're 1.5* the interquartile area and end at the last value in that range.
Circles represent outlying values.
Cross probably represents the average value.
The chart would probably be easier to read if it included a strip chart as well to represent every value and C12b doesn't particularly look like the size of the chart was chosen properly for the range of values. I have no idea what's going on at the bottom of C12b.

Hopefully that helps marginally better than other tutorials since I can't find the paper online so I don't understand the context.

Thanks very much for sharing your notes.
Maybe I'm trying to interpret it based on that and you can tell me if this makes sense according to the mechanics of a box-plot.

So the paper is about how plural markers in Early Middle English developed from things like -um, -es, -as and such to the today known -s. Hotta wanted to research which kind of nouns were effected from that change first, high-frequency or low-frequency nouns.
Earlier in the paper he stated pic related.
So when now looking at the box-plots I assume that the amount of data above the median are the high-frequency nouns and the ones below are the low-frequency nouns. Makes sense, right?
So when I now look at how the data changes over the periods I can see, that at first high-frequency nouns in C12b had a way higher amount of innovative s-types and throughout to C14a both high and low-frequencies became more alike and decreased (which makes sense since mostly all words have by then adapted to the s-plural).
But somehow this doesn't really make sense when comparing it with what he stated in pic related, when he said high-frequency nouns were much slower adapting to s-plural.
So I must be misinterpreting the diagram, right?
