it can be used as language

but in itself, it is only language as much as sounds that come from the human mouth or etchings on paper are.

Only when it has good lyrics (^:

>sounds that come from the human mouth or etchings on paper are

Why not sounds from an instrument?

Or to put it another way, is Bach a philosopher?

>tribes

>>533495
Yeah it's fucking cringe worthy to call populations of 10+ million with history of kingdoms and empires tribes.

It's like calling Icelandic people tribes.
>>533457
I believe it's from the Neolithic Subpluvial period in the Sahara and spread as a result of the "Saharan Pump" fluctuations.

>>533457
Originated in Africa, obviously.
>How did it end up spanning from ancient Middle Eastern civilizations to tribes in West Africa?
Africans migrated east and in turn took their language with them, would be my best guess.

because this shit is too much work and impractical. if you don't work in an office you'd only be inconvenienced having to wear a suit everywhere

Because wearing a suit every day is a pain in the arse

Having a well-defined dresscode is more practical than picking out stupid outfits every day.

Herodotus. He merely lists what he has heard and allows people to judge if it's bullshit or not. Thucydides just tells you the narrative that he believes is closest truth, and rarely brings up secondary accounts while telling his histories.

>>539522
Thucydides is more like a modern historian than Herodotus, though.

>twists facts in to supporting his own narrow perspective of events
sure is

>It turns out that the anglo-saxons for them most part assimilated the celts, rather than displace them.
It was quite logical seeing as the same happened in France.

>>538569
>However, modern genetic studies show that the English are almost entirely celtic by genetics.
They do?

>>538569
I'd hope not. It annoys me to no end when people get all "muh hurritage" about genetics, when identity is much more about culture and inheriting the worldviews, rather than the genetics, of various groups in the past. Whatever their genetics, the English Anglo-Saxon culture was more based on continental Germanic traditions than Celtic ones, and that's whats important.

Out of Africa. There is only one race. The human race.

Both seem to have equal credibility at this point in our knowledge

The multiregional hypothesis does no longer receive credence in anthropological circles.
Besides, your picture alone is enough to invalidate it: when has evolution ever happened so cleanly and symmetrically? At the very least, Asians and Europeans should share a more recent common ancestor.

Yes.

This probably wasn't even news to Columbus.

Yes. This is well-document and generally known, taught in grade school in most places.

This is the angle that doesn't get enough attention. There's evidence he may have been to Iceland and at least had some contacts with Icelanders.

Approximately half of Brit's ancestry comes from across the North Sea

Because they were girly heathens

Brest-Litovsk was even worse. Any if Germany had won ww1, you bet your ass there would have been massive annexations, a fourth partition of Poland, and generally the rule of Empires continuing in Continental Europe.

>>536938
Yeah, it's not like Germany imposed literally the exact same conditions on France at the end of the Franco-Prussian war.

Take social history courses instead.

Just do zoot suits. You know you want to.

That's all pretty broad, I also really like that period of time, but need to narrow it down to some specific event.

Mindless idealism about creating a Europe that would have no war in the future.

As it stands now, the EU and Schengen is more likely to cause another war than to stop one.

>>535788
"Globalism" of the rights-of-man variety.
By shutting down regional tendencies in European states, bureaucrats went full retard not acknowledging the European Union was made for white free men. Instead we got non elected nanny state with subversive tendencies like the passion for regulating things and importing muhammadans.
