Dying

I would say so, yes.

I'd say no don't be silly. Unless you have a loose definition of conflict.

>>516545
Birds lose the ability to fly in an environment without predators.

Realistically speaking, conflict is probably helpful to, but not a necessity for progress.

Sure thing. In the early 15'th (~1400/20) century russians were still using old slavic levies which consisted of basicaly serfs called to arms and asked to bring anything they could. Such levies usually had no armor and were wielding pole-arm weapons,hand axes and bows. In addition to these levies their nobility fought like boyars. Boyars were basicaly russian knights of that period but with a twist. The boyars had fine light or medium armour so they could retain high mobility. As weapons they used a spear,sword and a shield. As for their tactics: have in mind that russia is a vast land dominated by the grassy steppes so cavaly was very important. They used the serf levies as a mobile platform for their boyars to manuver about. It is easily imaginable why they lost to the mongols who were faster on horse and used their horse archers to gain an upper hand.Have in mind that before the mongols russian states fought mostly each other (they were all from the same dynasty) and had no real reason to update their army somewhat like the condotori in Italy.

The Muscowites were the first state to start the military reformation. Their main goal was defeating the Mongols and their military thhinking was based on that. This is the middle of the 15'th century (~1450)
They still used serf levies but that mostly carried pole arms called bardiches. These
bardiches were similar to helbards but varied in shape and lenght. The word is used to describe any pole-arm with an axe and a pike. Such units ware far more suited for fighting cavalry charges but were still unorganized and their equipment unregulated. The cavlary still formed the most important part if the russian armies. They were still using boyars and will continue to use them for a long time but in addition to them they used mercanery cavalry bands called "druzhina" which in eglish means the company. These mercaneries were formed from soldiers of the overrun principalities on the south. They were hardy soldiers used to war and were skilled in using any equipmeny including bows. This was the composition of the Muscowite armies that started the liberation of Russia.

No. It had support from France. It also had uninterruptible supply lines.

Covert America-hate thread?

No. It had support from Spain. It also had its own territory to fight on

1. "TRANSHUMANISM" —THE ALTERATION OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY, AND/OR BIOLOGY, VIA TECHNOLOGICAL MEANS— IS "SATANIC", LEADING TO THE OPPOSITE OF SOUL EXALTATION.

"TRANSHUMANISM" ENTAILS THE NEGATING FIXATION OF THE SOUL IN THE MATERIAL ZONE; THE TECHNOLOGICALLY ALTERED PERSON MAY AS WELL BE DEAD, BOTH IN BODY, AND IN SPIRIT.

2. WHAT IS MEANT BY "TO BE AS A CHILD TO ENTER THE HEAVENS" IS THAT ONE MUST BE A PURE BEING; ID EST: COMPLETELY NOBLE, AND INCORRUPT, PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY, AND SPIRITUALLY, TO BECOME ASCENDED.

ALTERING HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY, AND/OR BIOLOGY, OR THE FUNCTIONING OF THE NATURAL WORLD, VIA TECHNOLOGY, IS CERTAINLY INDICATIVE OF IGNOBILITY, AND CORRUPTNESS.

I love to discuss about the end of times. The point is: will we live long enough? When the armageddon comes, I will sure be already dead

Very cyberpunk. Resembles a sort of superorganism.

Yes

Like most African cultures they were more advanced and prosperous than they get credit for, but again, like most African cultures the impact they had was fleeting

>>520618
Probably the most advanced "black" African civilizations- along with Mali. They were heavily influnced by Islamic culture. unfortunately, this didn't deter their "Muslim brothers" from Morocco from sacking their capital city.

Just more evidence that Arabs post-Abbasid era are treacherous scum that only attack when they are backstabbing or against the weak. Honestly, the Islamic world would now be better without them.

oh and your question OP... they were pretty ebbin I guess...

>The cold war was just a north hemisphere thing, wasn't it?
No. There were a number of proxy wars in Africa and South America.

The cold war was wherever the US felt they needed to get rid of the communism boogeyman, no matter how many people had to get kidnapped, tortured and killed.

>>520308
muh US is evil! never mind Soviet atrocities though.

The Japanese selected their own Idealized version of themselves, and "they" settled on the image of the Katana toting muh honor samurai, for their contribution to history.

all warrior cultures selected either directly or indirectly, to identify their self idealized history

Its pretty easy.

This was because they all had their guns taken away by the gubment, and they wanted to make it clear it was not because they were pussies or anything.

>>519153
Because they are Protestant Christians who add race to religious issues.

>How do enlightened /his/ fedora fags ignore this verse?

>/pol/ is one person
if you actually brownsed /pol/ you'd actually know opinions are very diverse there you idiot. there are atheists, christians, jews, muslims and hindus. i've met a jap who called himself shinto too. theres leftypol, there are lolbertarians and conservashills. those who are pro israel and pro palestine, those who support both and those who want to watch the both kill each other.
