Also why didn't castles have a metal bar across their wall like this to prevent people from using ladders?

>>280568
Because that would ruin the aesthetics.

This moment now, because it occurring necessarily means everything before it occurring.

But what's wrong with incest? Was it just sinful or something? Was all of Europe ruled by religion?

>But what's wrong with incest? Was it just sinful or something?
They have a lot of defects because of inbreeding
It's sad to see desu

I think all attempts to settle and integrate them degenerated gypsies even further

I've heard, but never with like an actual citation behind it, that one of the "mainstream" Islamic beliefs is that the Tanach and the Gospels and whatnot aren't accurate recordings of the teachings of Moses and Jesus (among others), and that such religious leaders "really" preached Islam.


Is this an actual Islamic belief? If so, what basis does it have?

Cuius regio, eius religio

There was already a sitting emperor in the actual real Roman Empire at that time, so the HRE is an impostor state crowned by a heretical church.

Meme empire tbqh

It just amazes me how people did things at such a younger age back such as jobs or parenting. Jules Andre Peugeot, the first French soldier to die in WW1 was 21 years old. He was a teacher. Crazy that he gets shot in the shoulder with a pistol and dies from that.

Albert Mayer got his shit pushed in. Shot in the stomach, then the head.

"V R A QVEER LOL" - Brvtvs

Pretty sure guys have been fucking for all of history.
How widely accepted that was, however, varied wildly.

Most common and simple answer I can give you is that Christianitys and Islams spreading made it immoral as time went on.

I'm pretty sure it's San Marino

The Vatican's less than a hundred years old m8.

I think San Marino and Japan are the best answers. Japan was conquered and occupied for a few years, but it was still ruled by the same Emperor that whole time.

The Grand Piedmont Empire- They originally tried to unify Italy but the temptations of imperial expansion overtook their foreign policy, thus causing them to be a formidable power in the Mediterranean.

Fúsāng Guó

Millennia of Chinese and Japanese shipwrecks, carried drastically off-course by the storms of the North Pacific Current, established a series of ad hoc colonies along the Pacific coast of North America. Cut-off from their motherland, most of the settlements quickly assimilated with the native peoples or died off – only in the deltas of Suisun Bay, where cultivation of salvaged rice took hold, did a lasting civilization emerge. Merging with native tribes, the Chinese settlement of Fusang became the foundation for a number of city-states, petty kingdoms and principalities in the environs of the fertile central valley. Though clearly Sinic in origin, many cultures of Fusang retain their indigenous character, some even introducing innovations of their own, such as the domestication of the Tule Elk.

Although superficially similar to its progenitor in the Old World, centuries of independent development and native influence have created a unique composite culture. Although traditional characters are still used by the elite, provincial developments have reduced and simplified the character set into a demotic-esque syllabary – similar changes have occurred in the languages of the peoples, though the lingua franca remains a relatively conservative dialect termed Fúsānghuà. Cultural differences are too numerous to list, though the Fusang generally recognize their common heritage.

Disposition of Fusang states, Wúzǔni 12 (~1500 AD), by their English names:
>RED – Independent city-states and principalities
>BLUE – Da Fusang (joint kingdom of Bei and Nan Fusang)
>BROWN – Tule Confederacy (Sinified native states)
>GREEN – Tsumas Iyaanga (semi-Sinified native states)
>YELLOW – Wintu Kingdoms (Sinified)
>PURPLE – Sasti Province (semi-Sinified)
>PINK – minor states of the Willamette (lately semi-Sinified)
>GREY – area of cultural influence (var. "barbarian" tribes)

>also added Lake Tulare because it should exist before the 20th century

Serb here. I'm afraid not. He really was the only thing keeping shit together. The nation was destined to fall apart due to ethnic strife the moment he got out of the picture - and he knew this. The resulting chaos was really just inevitable.

We all miss you Josip. ;_;

>>279706
Damn. Well that's kind of a shame to hear. Though I've been curious for a while about as to why the ethnic tensions are as high as they are in the Balkans; I know religion played a big part, but not sure what else lead to it. If you don't mind, can you help explain it to me?

>>279747

The Balkans has always been a powder-keg ready to explode on a moments notice, and its been that way for as long as anyone can remember. The ultra-nationalism of the Balkans has almost entirely to do with the fact that it was conquered and occupied by the Ottomans for many centuries (this combined with the mountainous terrain not only isolates cultures from each other but makes partisan-warfare very viable)

Religion of course had a major part of it - but there was also the leftovers of World War 2. Croats were Nazi collaborators and Serbs even to this day cannot forgive them for this. Many Serbs were genocided by the Croats or forcibly converted to Catholicism. Mix muslims into this and you just get a complete clusterfuck known as the "Powderkeg of Europe".

what the hell was even in the slightest way interesting in Arabia at that time? I think it would have been a retarded move, he should have invaded Italy

>what the hell was even in the slightest way interesting in Arabia at that time?

Arabia was rich as fuck, a land of spice trade and caravans.

>>279572
Sabaeans. There's a civilization there you know. And the Ayyrab raiders were messing his routes.
