Yeaa.... They will.

what >>977868 says.

Riot police have a very strict order of operations regarding the escalation of foce. They are not immediately gonna switch to live ammo and start massacreing civvies. At least, that's from what I understand.

But let's humor OP for a moment. Which weapons are you gonna select and from what time period?

If we're talking generically, crushing weapons like maces and warhammers are useful if your riot cop is wearing hard armor. As are swords from the era of heavy plate armor.

You do have to realize that being proficient with a medieval melee weapon takes a long time. Time you don't have.

Which means crossbows and pikes. Lots of them. And if your mob has a bunch of crossbows, well...

Yeah, I think if you're gonna hit them with fucking crossbow bolts, they'e most likely gonna spray the mob with gunfire. And not rubber bullets.

wow

>germany takes moscow, stalingrad and leningrad with limited casualities
Impossible. The Germans did not have the manpower or logistics to do so. Even a stronger drive to Moscow alone would have left the southern flank exposed to an entire Russian army group, which is why forces were diverted south to destroy it.

>japan sinks US carriers in pearl harbor, does not lose half of its navy at midway
First half is possible but ultimately only extends the war in the Pacific a year at the most, the Japs still lose regardless
>and destroys the panama canal
Impossibru. Not counting the fact the Japanese actually couldn't have made it that far because of a lack of fuel ships and fuel in general, they would have been utterly ravaged by land based aircraft and bombers and the amount of damage they actually could have done with aircraft alone is questionable. Coming in close enough to use their main guns would have definitely ended in the Japanese navy being sunk by land based defenses and land launched aircraft.

>italy sends its troops to fight alongside germany in the eastern front
They did.

>d-day fails
On what condition?

>I think this would have been enough for the Axis to win WW2
No because even if all of this happens the US and UK still win the air war, still bomb Germany to shit, and still get the Nuke first and turn Germany into a radioactive wasteland.
Japan still loses because the US still turns out more tonnage in one year (1943) than they do in six years combined. The US economy was eight times larger than the Japanese economy in 1938, by 1943 the US economy had quintupled.

all formal education is basically independent research, what you pay for is someone to point you in the right direction.

>>976739
>independent research?

Just ask an academic question on 4chan and you'll see why that isn't always a good idea.

>>976739
>that cannot be replicated through independent research

What the hell are you talking about?

It made significant headway amog the szlachta initially. Something like 25% of nobles in the Sejm at one point. But the Kings remained Catholic and so when the Counter-Reformation go along by the late 16th Century they promoted the new orthodoxy and suppressed protestantism or at least discouraged it to the point that a lot of nobles converted back to the cathlolic church

Is "it" Protestantism?

Yeah, literally

They're shit at defending against direct combat. Good luck protecting a city when horse archers is all you have.

Why did money carry the various Persian, Turkic, or Semitic empires in this area so far compared to other places?

The desert is ours. It is my home. Invaders come here, but they do not leave. They do not understand the desert; they do not understand how it gives life, and how it kills. So they die, and we grow stronger. The dead, now, the dead cannot pass on their newfound wisdom...so invaders keep coming, keep trying to take our lands and our wealth. But then, wealth flows through this land. And if our people have one thing, it is the love of wealth. It is sweeter than water, it is more powerful than the sword, for any sword can be turned aside with a gold coin. Gold will buy a thousand warriors...and a thousand warriors, why, they are the start of an empire!

He's not a historian.
[spoiler] Memes aside he's actually pretty entertaining to listen to, great presenting voice. His podcasts provide good introductions to the topics he discusses. I love his WWI series. Great for listening to on the road. He's not always accurate or might not represent the topic properly sometimes but its not a lecture or anything, just entertainment. [/spoiler]

I'm sorry. Didn't know this was a common thread. What is the general opinion of past threads?

Sedentary hedonism makes you worthless.

Overcoming is where it's at

A NEET can hypothetically seek to overcome himself, but this is rarely the case.

A career can be an avenue or self-affirmation, or even a mundane job, but the mileage varies.

>>974519
you would overcome to find yourself in a mundane job that you resent in the end

Is there any point in looking for a job you enjoy or is that a fool's errand?

>slowly invading the region around them, which was Polish
It was Baltic, and it was a very quick invasion

>>973215
>It was Baltic
It was Polish. The place has always been Polish, always. This is why it belongs to the Polish people. You're just trying to undermine the Polish claim on the land because you're a Nazi sympathizer. No, it does not belong to the Germans, and it never has. Fuck you.

He betrayed a bunch of guys that betrayed another bunch of guys because they refused to betray the Indians and allow the first bunch of guy to continue expanding into their land.
It was at least not the worst thing you may do.

>>972302

Well desu, he was betraying the betrayers who the British Empire betrayed through fucking them over with high taxes and no representation in Parliament... So no, it wasn't justified.

He's still a villain and will always be one, even to other Westerners besides Britbongistanis

>>972302
>He's still a villain and will always be one, even to other Westerners
"Other Westerner" here.

We don't even know who this guy is.

Norway: oil money
Sweden: weapon money
Finland: soviet money
No idea on danish or iceland. Danish might be beastility porn.

>>972015

No you slant eyed mongol

>>972015
Denmark is basically: Oil money, but not as much money as Norway
