I guess any of the semi-mythical figures.

Greek: Trojan war heroes and the Argonauts
Russian: Ilya Muramets (confirmed historical figure) and other Bogatyrs

Probably that fucker who killed like 50 Saxons on the bridge at the battle of Stanford bridge

David in The Bible.
Starts out trying to save his people from invaders, becomes a brave and noble warrior king.

Everything is predestined. You will dwell on it for a while, but that is important to do. Any argument you will find that is against this is very ridiculous

Take >>1036532 for example

By explain do you mean you want us to tell you why it is not true? Because it definitely is true. Our consciousnesses are just passengers/prisoners locked in a brain locked in a body.

>Didn't even contribute much to Waterloo

No, the meme is that only 1/3 of the army was British but he still commanded the entire army (except for the Prussians, who are always counted as a separate army).

He wasn't incompetent, although we can agree that British propaganda propped up his image.

Americans will never admit that the Russians hate them for forcing Neo-Liberalism on them.

>>1036438
Nothing was forced on them, it was will of people.
Eastern bloc was going through recession by the end of 80's and it wasnt going to get better.
Find some map that has years up to present and see for yourself how much it has grew.

The stats are accurate?

What is this "I" you're talking about? You sound like a Cartesian dualist. The first thing to do is stop being retarded.

Russia takes modern day America's place. And instead of the west being the powerhouse the Eastern block is the center of the world.

*China never goes through a socialist shit-hole phase and resembles a bigger Japan.
*Japan probably adopts a great deal of Eastern Orthodox religion and Russian culture instead of Western.
*Australia is even more chinkafied.

We live in a dystopic world.

Ok, no memes.

First of, you need to make sure the Russians WILL be able to hold Alaska, the sign of gold may lead to the bongs to launch the Crimean War decades earlier. Also in 1800 connection between Russia proper and Alaska were pretty bad, it'll take a few decades to become reliable.

Second, industrialization isn't like a video game where you build a factory and "plim, we rich now :DDD" in 1800 Russia lacked the economic conditions that lead Western Europe to the Industrial Revolution (like widespread Serfdom)

And third, which reinforces #1 and #2, Russia lacks accessibility to external markets because >lol no ports.

So, you gave them A LOT of advantages, but for the Russians to dominate they have to overcome a lot of problems, can they succeed? Yes, but it wouldn't be certain.

Piety is the process whereby a holy Being discloses itself to Dasein and is disclosed by Dasein.

>Canadian Shield

Google that

Half of Canada is basically a frozen wasteland

there wasnt really any eras of mass migration other than the chinese during the gold rushes, i think

plus, the south was always urban and densely populated and industrial because of the railroad while the north remained sparsely populated and rural

>unruly animal that can rek your own formation if startled is incorporated into the army
>only one survives to the final showdown

Meme platoons are the worst. Given me one example of a meme platoon that worked in history, that won a war, not some obscure battle.

Medittos never learned how to use an Ephelant in battle properly desu.

They looked at them and saw cavalry, instead of fighting platforms.

There you go, OP.

(relatively) expensive labor made it worth to invest a lot of capital in labor saving machines instead of simply hiring more labor to achieve a higher production. On top of that a lot of capital is needed to build certain types of machinery, coal is also quite good to have.

All in all i'd say it's typically just the maturation and growth of pre-industrial economy.

Britain has relatively little natural resources

they simply had to invent efficient ways of using what they have

Thanks for the bump

Assuming you are the same guy from the last thread, "connections" should not be your motivation for wanting to become a Freemason.

At least not in the financial networking sense anyway.

don't join a lodge full of weirdos who just wanted to be in a secret club and don't really care for each other

find one of the cool ones full of guys who like each other and actually hang out / drink after meetings.

I joined the first kind before moving and joining the latter and it was like the difference between night and day.

Jack Chick thinks it was the Jesuits
I think it was the Zionists
Just like with Kennedy

So I literally just looked into it more, I wasn't aware of JWB's political beliefs, I think it's very clear this was a plot hatched by the Democrats. Probably Andrew Johnson was in on it too. Thoughts /his/?

>>1035500
Definitely wasn't booth alone; there was definitely a higher up involved, either from the confederate side or someone on Lincoln's cabinet.
