What? I'm simply asking how they deteriorated so badly. From what I've seen of Macedonia today it's not that powerful nor that modern. You'd think they would have kept some of that power

Being predatory birds with a cool aesthetic, eagles have a noble, powerful image

Its prominent use by the ebinly prestigious Roman Empire allowed it to spread
A lot of the uses are connected to countries trying to emulate Rome: Byzantines, Third Reich, Imperial Russia (muh Third Rome), etc.

Funny thing is, especially in relation to America, is bald eagles are such pussies
I see them get harassed by crows and seagulls

Why are Scots and Jews such degenerate scum?

Jews are historically the most degenerated people in the world, they seem to draw strength from how degenerate they can make society around them. Is it because Jews are the most nepotist inbred group in the world?

Hi /his/, what are your opinions on the Lebanese Civil War? I'm the son of Lebanese Christian Diaspora, and I'm curious in seeing what you believe.

Legacy of the French mandate. The Maronite Christians wanted to establish essentially a Christian state in Lebanon, despite being the minority, and the Muslims (both Shi'a and Sunni), who were the majority, were not happy.

Then the Israelis got involved and it all went to hell.
>>
>>54186
>Shi'a and Sunni were the Majority
Maronite Christians made up 90% of the population before and during the war.
>>
>>54296

lol no

Virtually all scholars agree that the Maronites had become the minority by the time the French had left.

One of the major reasons the war happened was that the Muslims, especially the Shi'a, wanted to hold a nationwide census to determine religious demographics in Lebanon, knowing full well that they were in the majority, followed by the Sunnis, then the Christians. The Maronite ruling administration was adamantly opposed to any census, fearing it would legitimacy and power if it would take place.

Any students of Greek around here?

Who were the Pelasgians and how did they relate to the Minoans?

My personal guess is that the Pelasgians weren't really a unified presence in Greece, they were just scattered bands of peoples who the Greeks conquered on their way into greece.

As for their relationship to the Cretans, I believe that they may have shared an ancient ancestry, and that their ancestors split and left the mainland, eventually founding the Cycladic culture which evolved into the Minoan civilization.

Romanticisation. In actuality the historical Liu Bei was very much a Legalist and would have thus been considered as a man of bad character in Confucian evaluation.

>great great grandfather was a minor nobleman who happened to be descended from the Liu royal family

muh heritage muthafucka

>>53614
Basically, Liu Bei is an individual who embodies secular rule and the power of law. This is something that Chinese rulers have always tried to emphasize in order to tamp down nationalism and economic rebellions. Unlike Cao Cao or other lesser warlords, Liu Bei did not have a reputation for capriciousness, personal cruelty, and a general disregard for the state in favor of gaining personal power. That's why he's been idealized.

I fucking hat the "building pyramids is impossible" myth. They found the fucking plans for it and everything. The Nubians, not really that sophisticated a people, learned to make fucking pyramids. You can still find some in Sudan.

Lizards and snakes are creepy and weird so it's awe-inspiring to fuse them with humanity for a divine figure. That's it.

1. HOW DOES THE QUESTION DIRECTLY RELATE TO ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS?

2. TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION: NO.

3. THERE IS NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT REPTILIANS ARE ACTUALLY FROM ANOTHER PLANET; THEY COULD HAVE BEEN ON EARTH SINCE BEFORE HUMANS EVEN EXISTED, PHYSICALLY, OR ETHEREALLY; ID EST: IN THE THIRD DIMENSION, OR IN THE FOURTH DIMENSION.

THEIR REPTILIAN APPEARANCE MAY NOT EVEN BE THEIR REAL APPEARANCE, BUT MERELY HOW THEY WANTED TO APPEAR TO HUMANS.

This is Dr. Douglas M. Kelley. He was the prison psychiatrist responsible for monitoring the mental health of the high ranking Nazis as they awaited trial in Nuremberg.

He killed himself because after studying the defeated nazis, he couldn't identify an underlying illness that drove the nazis to commit the crimes they did. He discovered that Nazis were normal people who did extremely bad things, and concluded that anyone, anywhere was capable of doing what they did. This drove him insane so he killed himself.

If you can't handle working with the minds of people who do fucked up shit, you probably shouldn't work as a psychiatrist analysing war criminals.

From his wiki:
> He committed suicide in front of his wife and children on New Year's Day 1958 by ingesting a capsule of potassium cyanide.[1][2]

Sounds like a bit of a cunt, to be honest.
