exactly, non-european lives have no value and are of no importance..

I think the world wars and chinese internal wars were a bit more deadly than 600,000 people anon

I meant in percentage. Some historians say that up to 75% of parguayian population was lost during the conflict.

What would have happened if the Teutonic order won the battle on the Ice?
Would they expand into Siberia or just use the Russian lands as marches against steppe hordes?

It's importance is overplayed by Russian nationalists. The order had already more or less reached its limits with prussia and livonia. It simply didn't have a realistic chance of expanding into Russia

Battle on the Ice was a small skirmish which wasn't even on the ice.

So I learned that the Spanish Inquisition was more than likely exaggerated by protestants to use as a beating stick against the Catholic Church, what other events were exaggerated for Political reasons?

factoids are not historically useful
it's always the whys and so forth, just because he glossed over a long period of history in 10 minutes does not mean his "students" can think critically about the subject
there is no "learning" here, only words that sounds familiar but probably could not be reused in another setting

Right, anon. Back then if you wanted to live in a nice clean place you lived in the suburbs outside the city. If you lived in the city you were to poor for other options or you didn't care/ it was just part of every day life.

Do you grieve the death of the classical world and the beginnings of Christianity? I'm reading about it in philosophy and history and it's hard to be impartial.

No, because all that was good was retained, except a few things in the West, which were recovered in the Renaissance.

Yes, although the classical world was already over as soon as Socrates started his bullshit about ignorance being the source of all evil. Christianity closing off the entire cultural world from anything other than divine justice just wrapped up the inevitable end of the classical world
