>in the Middle Ages it was widely accepted in Britain that Britons were the descendants of Troyan refugees, they sacked Rome sometime before Julius Caesar and Briton kings, refusing to pay tribute to Romans, first annexed Gaul and marched down to Italy
You can't make all this shit up

>were the descendants of Troyan refugees
but Romans also had that same story
>Rome was founded by Romulus and Remus after being raised by a she wolf
NO WAIT
>Rome was founded by Aeneis after he headed west following the fall of Troy
Well....which is it?!
>>1143326
this is very clearly explained in Livy's Early History of Rome
but I forgot how he explained it
>>1143334
Damn. I'm sure there is an explanation but I don't know it.
From what I've read Aeneis' ancestors reach down to Numitor who was the grandfather of Romulus and Remus....but then that doesn't explain how Rome was founded twice
Someone please tell me!
Are there any plausible pre-Columbian trans-oceanic contact theories?
Or are they all conspiratard garbage?
>>1143256
Nice homework question.
Well, the Vikings are documented to have done it.
That's academically accepted fact.
It's probable that the Polynesians had contact with the peoples of South America. There is linguistic and genetic evidence to suggest this.
Other than that, it's mostly pseudoarchaeology

Bulgaria
Nothing really, maybe some old commies might think of WWII, the same way they refer to the USSR as "the Union"
Brazil.
Nothing at all. We haven't been in a war in eons. We got Paraguay pretty good back in the 1860s though. Fucking slaughtered them. Good times.
>>1142776
USA
Prob Afghanistan, unless in the deep south. Then maybe the Civil War. Ive never heard anyone really say "the war" abstractly
Whats so "great" about this dude?
He seems like a big fag and his empire didn't even last
>>1142765
You seem like a bigger fag and you don't even have an empire
t.b.h
I know jack shit about history but isn't his legacy the Hellenism period?
>>1142765
he was the only man in history to successfully conquer afghanistan
his empire probably would've lasted much longer if he wasn't gay and had kids
>Albertus Magnus was said to have had a robot that could move and greet visitors with the salutation Salve! ('How are you!'). Thomas Aquinas, his pupil at the time, is reported to have attacked and broken the gregarious android when he came across it unexpectedly in the night.
this fat son of a bitch whacked a robot
>>1142620
So your saying we should take anything we read about these two with a grain of salt?
>when he came across it unexpectedly in the night.
I like to think that would have been my impulse rather than hopping out a window or something.
>>1142626
that's not very christian of you :^)
Imagine that you are the leader of a Socialist Revolution in a capitalist country of the west.
The revolution wins.
How do you organise the political system? Do you use ''the dictatorship of the majority''?
How do you organise the industries? Self Organised or not?
How do you treat the elit of the capitalists?
Show me your plan as a LEADER who wants to prove that Marxism can be beneficial for the proletariats.Your plan must be realistic following the majority of Marxist theory.
>>1142400
Bumping for significant interest
>>1142400
I implement capitalism.
>>1142400
I'd balance capitalist and socialist policies, so I may achieve an economy similar to that of Sweden.
I would try to create a culture in which people should not be judged by their class, gender, race, culture.
But the strength and the skill of their character.
I would emplore that classes work together to help one another, so that even the poorest man may feel a degree of comfort.

Yeah no.
which assertion triggers HREaboos the hardest?
That they weren't holy?

or that they weren't an Empire?
>>1142204

FUCK YOU
Voltaire's HRE observations, ranked:
1. not roman
2. not holy
3. not an empire
The whole world except an irrelevant area in north america has adopted the metric system.
Why didn't anybody convert the the metric religion?
Your post is proof that the metric system's advocates are fools.
Because it's associated with Napoleon and I really, really detest manlets.
It would be really expensive now and take a long time. Most people are taught it in school though.
We should learn philosophy to:
Aquinas: understand God
Sartre: understand freedom
Popper: understand science
Hegel: understand Hegel

Happiness is:
Plato: knowledge
Aristotle: virtue
Epicurus: tranquility
Aristippus: pleasure
Socrates: showing people how stupid they are
>>1141914
Fuck bitches, that's happiness.
>>1141947
Assuming you fuck bitches everyday for 4 hours a day.
Thats still 20 hours of unhappiness. Is this really the answer? Just before you "forget" about it, doesn't mean its not there.
What's its name /his/?
The holt Roman Empire, no matter what jelious losers and hater will tell you.

The Koreans caught him, figured he was a Finnish spy, and killed him.
Do you think you're better than other people? Why?
>>1141457
Yeah, because I am, unless someone wants to prove me otherwise.

>>1141457
I'm definitevely better than some people at some things
