Well, if the Moscow bydlos can claim they are Romans, why can't some Germans do that as well?

Checkmate, heretics.

the holy roman empire was the greatest and most longlived unironic wewuz in history

Traditionally slightly less so, due to the huge participation of German nationals on both sides.

In the German Empire, Jews were usually unable to find work in experimental or practical physics. In Nazi Germany, they were outright banned from those fields before being deported. So when the German field of rocketry came along, it was entirely gentile.

But there are thousands of historical buildings in Sub-Saharan Africa

This is just making excuses for things that don't need to be excused. It's like the old "Africans could just hunt and gather because food was so bountiful so they never developed agriculture" meme, even though they had millet coming out of their ears

I actually love the history of pre colonial Africa, but to blame the Europeans for all of Africa's problems is reverse /pol/ tier stupidity. Put it this way, the bornu empire collapsed when a Sudanese slave trader left Sudan with 1000 men and invaded. That shows you how weak some African states were. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabih_az-Zubayr
Pic related the Sudanese guy's head on a pole after the French fought him.

Pretty sure it's the polfags who are obsessed.

They fucked up their mobilization.

Shit railroads, shit organisation, bad officer core, multinational, very hard to relay orders in so many languages, outdated tactics, marching troops up mountains in winter, attacking Serb fortified positions, underestimating a chance of Serbian counterattack as they went to capture Belgrade, Slavic soldiers defecting.
General Oscar Potjorek got a letter from high command that literally said "lmao, kill urself". Just as the high command was sending heaps of soldiers to die from Russians.
Oscar also rambled something about the Serbs fascination with plums in his memoirs

That is actually an issue that whole books have been written about.

Read Holger Herwig's excellent First World War book on the Austro-German war effort.

Yes.

But it wasn't a genocide. Unless we're expanding "genocide" to include economically induced famines now.

>>1155235
good chick, would "holodomor" her t b h

>>1155246
The inventor of the concept said it qualified. Submitting a population to conditions menacing its very existence and causing destruction on the population is a way to do a genocide. The controversy is about the intentions of Stalin. Did he intentionnally make in sort that so many people would die ?

Knowing the character it wouldnt be surprising but I dont know enough about the subject to prove anything

I don't really understand 'murca's obsession with founding fathers. I mean, BF seemed like a cool statesman and all that, but who cares what these dudes thought? They're more than 200 years out of date. That's like if Britain obsessed over what Walpole and his ilk thought.

>>1155111
I read his autobiography and I was so underwhelmed. This guy allegedly had mistresses in every major city of Europe and he couldn't write about something more interesting? It is just him the whole time talking about local politics.

Thomas Jefferson seems cool though and I think Madison was a really good political theorist.

>In my chief work I have explained the only valid reason existing against suicide on the score of mortality. It is this: that suicide thwarts the attainment of the highest moral aim by the fact that, for a real release from this world of misery, it substitutes one that is merely apparent. But from a mistake to a crime is a far cry; and it is as a crime that the clergy of Christendom wish us to regard suicide.

Would you support "benevolent world-exploder" then?

Look, not an expert, but I'm well-read. I seem to remember reading somewhere that the tactics of medieval armies of Europe only changed when technological advances required one. Tactics were stagnant otherwise. Why change? Sure, some brilliant commanders came up with clever ambushes and sieges, but those usually lived and died with that commander or became the new standard.

>>1154801
I meant to add that you should specifically look into books on technological advances to really get a feel for why the tactics changed. Think gunpowder. That changed the game, sure. But that wasn't it. Guns were firing stones back then, if they were firing at all, or if the commander even thought them useful!

>>1154815
That's why Im interested in this period. The development of firearms and the political restructuration of the kingdom must have affected its military. And the technological innovations must be interesting as well
