If they weren't Mexicans. The primary job of Latin American politicians is fighting each other.

Reagan amnesty

Another question, why did Mexico survive as such a large country, but Central America fractured? Geographical separation because of mountains?

I know some East Africans on /int/ who consider themselves black witch is weird

The grammatical and syntactical structure of your question already begs the question. What "is" truth assumes that truth is a substantive. Furthermore, you also presuppose the meaning of "is-ness." So before we ask the question of what is truth, we must answer the question of Being.

Well, earlier in on in John, Jesus had said to God that 'thy word is truth'. Pilate was a dick and didn't give Jesus a chance to respond before leaving to address the crowd.

Then English language would still be Germanic

England remains in the 'Scandinavian' sphere but is too powerful for any other major 'Viking' invasions. There is still probably an influx of castle building and Romanesque architecture in the late 11th century, though obviously on a smaller scale. Recent archaeology suggests several motte-and-bailey castles (mostly on the Welsh Marches) that were previously assumed to be Norman may come from the reign of Edward the Confessor. Other than that hard to say really, it depends on how stable the Godwinsson dynasty proves itself to be. This has wider implications on the continent as well, especially for France depending on how bad a state the Normans are left in

>>90963
Sweyn (?) Or some other northman threat attacks and takes advantage of Anglo Saxon weakness. William had to fight (well scare) them off in the north soon after he conquered. The Normans were strong enough to keep their win, otherwise the island keeps trading hands.

There had been that plan to turn the whole deal into a Federation of sorts. The problem really was WW1 more than anything, since its economic strain and resulting WW2 made it unfeasible to maintain a lot of the colonies, many of which didn't make much money to begin with.

If they had gone federal, I'd expect a good deal of the english majority territories would remain together, but distance would likely have made even that a bit unfeasible. It's hard to say.

>>90090
Brits should have industrialized and commercialized their colonies a lot more so they could become self sufficient blocs within a World British Federation or whatever.

Also massively increased their anglo populations so the natives became minorities. It worked for America.

This too, becuase of WWI the Irish home rule bill which had been approved was delayed, and being a bunch of a impatient manchildren the Irish Republicans decided to try and get it during the war through force

Is this thing considered a Genocide? Because it should be. Although most victims were KIA.

Was it necessary for brazilians to fucking kill every single male in that country?

they were the situation it was SO BAD the only surviving men were either too young or too old to marry.

>>89822
Some facts

>begun in 1864 ended in 1870

>Causes varies from Brazilian intervention in the uruguayan civil war of 1864 to the apprehension of the boat that was bringing the governor of the Brazilian province of Mato Grosso.

>It's was great factor for the abolition of slavery in Brazil.

>The parguayan dictator Solano López died in the last battle of the war, and it's sister married the brazilian general that led the battle.

>>89856
The genocide was a consequence but not the intention. Dom Pedro II could not allow Solano to remain in power after all the years of conflict.

His people decided to stick with him to the end and unfortunately paid the price.

>why didn't the industrial revolution happen before it actually did?

Printing press with movable type expanding the general intellect?

>china had quite some production line like processes happening before europe,

Rome had these also, IIRC

Although left alone for a bit longer China might have gotten to industrialization

This board is already finished.

Don't bother with the middle east

Britain learned it, then Russia learned it, then somehow the uk forgot and made the same mistake again, this time with the us

Never get involved in a land war in Asia

Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line

If someone claims that you are being slowly genocides by outsiders who have come to steal your wealth, you are being lied to and are almost certainly on the brink of a civil war.

You will know when you are being legitimately inavded. If people aren't dying in the streets, that rhetoric is being shouted exclusively for political gain.

Please keep it politics free, I am only looking for an historical perspective not race baiting

Ennui?

Thought of that. Article blames the heroin epidemic as a contributing factor along with ending career goals and lower standard of living from competition from overseas slave labor.
Anomie would be closer, what the Japanese feel today.
That suicide rate is shocking so is the death rate from heroin among upper class young whites.

>every second thread is about ancient LGBT bullshit

nobody saw that comming

So we get a better perspective.

Historians always ignore lewd parts and there are some very lewd and good parts in history.

This book specifically or the series as a whole? Series as a whole was nice, and this book was pretty interesting. Actually said "You may feel sorry for the Incas and the Aztecs being conquered by invaders, but how do you think THEY became empires? THEY CONQUERED AND INVADED!" instead of saying "WAAAA POOR NATIVE AMERICANS WHITE PEOPLE ARE SUCH BULLIES!"
Terry Deary's a pretty nice writer, and Mark Brown's illustrations are ok, if a bit simplistic.

>>89309
great for the kids, and those who can't be bothered reading a big dense history book.

>>89361
I feel like it can be good for casual reading as well. I like sitting down in a restaurant while eating a nice meal and reading about toad eaters and victorian era begging, involving eating rotten bread. Really works up an appetite.

>tfw no temple

god damned Romans.

Shame it can't be rebuilt because Muslims appopriated the temple mount

The city of Jerusalem was called the city of peace, however, it has been quite to the contrary for the past 4,000 years; it has been defined by war and religious strife and political anarchy. The Jews, Christians and Muslims have fought bitter wars over the right to claim ownership and custodial entitlement to Mount Moriah. All three Abrahamic faiths have assembled theological and dogmatic authenticity to explaining why King Solomon’s Temple personifies the Jewish, Christian, and/or Islamic religious worldview.

King Solomon's Temple was built on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem and some have maintained that the Ark of the Covenant where Prophet Moses received the Ten Commandments is somehow connected to this land and Mount Moriah as it pertains to Moses and the Tabernacle.

The Muslims and the Christian claimed that God (Allah, Yahweh, Jehovah, etc.) instructed Abraham (2078-1903 B.C.E) to sacrifice his son on top of Mount Moriah ; however, depending upon one's faith tradition will determine whether that son was Isaac (1978-1798 B.C.E) or Ishmael (1992-1855 B.C.E).

Some scholars believe that the present day Al-Asqa Mosque, the Dome of the Rock, Temple Mount, etc., is built on top of the ruins of the original King Solomon's Temple site, which was built by King Solomon according to the Old Testament Bible in 975 BCE and when Jerusalem came under Babylonian ruler-ship in 586 BCE the Temple was destroyed.

The next Temple on this site was rebuilt in 515 BCE, by Zerubbabel who was politically tied to the Persian Empire and served as Governor of Judah. The third and the most magnificent of the three Temples was built by King Herod in 18 BCE and it to, was later destroyed along with the Holy City of Jerusalem during Jewish revolt against the Romans in 70 CE.
