For example, i'm from Moldova, anyone interested can ask about it's history, and so on.

Moldova's an eastern european country founded in 1359. It's etymology comes from the germanic people who named the current river of Moldova "Mulde" from which the name of the country comes from.

>And how are you not just special snowflake romanians?
Why should we? All contributions to present romanian literature and philology were done by moldovans, who identified as part of the moldovan nation. We also have no common language or history.

Where are you from?

Tell me what's the beef you have with Denmark. Under which circumstances did you declare independence ?

Why do right wing dictatorships usually have such lower death tolls than left wing dictatorships?
323 posts and 37 images submitted.

They generally support existing power structures, including the elite. Thus there is little need for massive institutional revolution, which is often what leads to many deaths in left wing dictatorships.

They're both immoral. Pinochet was every bit the bloodthirsty murderer as Stalin or Mao.

Timur was one of the greatest military leaders ever, right in the same league with Alexander, yet you never hear from him.

Not by using traditional military forces, no. Even in '45, the States had too few nuclear bombs to just eliminate the Soviet war machine through bombings alone.

Why didn't Luther consider Orthodoxy? Why didn't the Reformation in general not consider it? Was Fasting really too much to ask?
78 posts and 3 images submitted.
>>
>>509077

IIRC, it was considered at one point early on, but rejected for some reason.
>>
>>509086
Why? I know Protestants hate fasting, but that doesn't seem like the substance of their faith.
>>
>>509086

The protestants contacted the Orthodox Church in order to determine whether they might merge together, but the Orthodox felt the need to "correct" the protestants on some of their theology, which the protestants didn't take too kindly to.
