What did Keegan and the (admittedly outdated) Tuchman do to deserve being put on this meme list?

No, but it will cover you for that cheeky wank you had last night.

Remember, the Lord was watching.

Gee I wonder where the profits from this website go

You can see how the faces of the Spanish kings became progressively more deformed

Are they a meme dynasty?

I like how this is the only example people have when they say all nobles were inbred.

you are worst norman, housecarl will get you.

Ireland is a meme country to be honest.

>>541664
Not even the first time I've heard this.
I heard the following things worthy of mention:

>Ireland preserved knowledge or writing for places with bigger dicks which helped prevent some sort of disaster
>Ulster kicked ass in the First World War with some dickass rifles

I only know the latter to be widely accepted as true.
Other that, I see very little. Apparently the IRA were a force to be reckoned with at one point.

Dal Riada and the Irish kingdoms in North West Wales and the tip of Cornwall.

The lengths at which the white man will go to put himself in the spotlight.
They arent europeans. They arent even indo-europeans yet. But some of them may be one day, so best mention it!

the best way to acquire a skill is to submit to someone's authority
usually a book written by an expert, or a tutor
point is: true authority is natural
ideally those who are best suited to lead should lead
but it's difficult to implement any such system in practice

They're poorly defined as "victimless," when in reality, they have victims, its just not obvious to many who see these crimes as only affecting the individual. Consider how illegal drug use is usually defined as a victimless crime. That drug had to come some where and most likely came from an organized crime syndicate who is financed by the drug and who are also associated with other, more major, crimes.

>>541366
Also, illicit drug usage ->loss of self-control -> potential damage to society.
It's very utilitarian, maybe even excessively so.

>>541334
No such thing as a victimless crime, it's an oxymoron

>>541324
It's heavily based on written Church Slavonic language as opposed to spoken dialects due to colonial nature of Russia. First person who laid the foundation for modern Russian language was Lomonosov with his High, Middle and Low styles - modern one started to be developing around Middle style.

Alexander Pushkin is generally considered the first person writing in proper modern Russian language.

Is Polish more influenced by Germanic languages?

Are Slavs in Western? Huntington lists Orthodox as a separate one.

>>541178
Human beings are the only species that need to feel important

>>541387
Western Slavs are indeed Western. The Czech were associated with HRE since the beginning and later just the Habsburgs alone. Poles went with them and later they irreversibly turned to West thanks to Napoleon.

Journalism.

if you want to know about the rise and fall of the third reich then I'd say it's a pretty good place to start, you just need to get over the awkward bits where the author complains about homosexuality for a sentence.

Bump

I don't know what effect it had on European culture and demographics, but considering it killed 2% of the world population, it probably had some effect.

Honestly it's surprising how little people know about the flu, I have only recently heard of it.

After Justinian's death is when the Empire started to become less 'Roman' and more Greek. Though they called themselves Romans till the very end in 1453.

>>540522
I'd say after the Arab invasions. They lost a huge chunk of their territories (Italy and the Balkans had been slipping from their grasp even before), the emperor formally changed the administrative language to Greek, and the legion system essentially disappeared.

>>540623
I agree with this, the reign of Heraclius is the most obvious turning point.

Though the "feudalization" of the army, in the form of the pronoiai and increasing Western influence on arms and tactics, is a much later Komnenid development and was the result of losing much of their traditional recruitment territory in Anatolia to the Turks.

Pretty good, the straw-man arguments from both religious and atheists are annoying. But just how 'new atheists' don't have a good grasp of the actual arguments in favour of God, neither do many christians.

Pseudo-science.

Free association is pretty good.

Freud's fantastic, Freudians are shit, no idea what in the name of God Lacan's on about (and have no desire to find out, honestly).
