I don't know if anyone tops Rome and Britain for influence. Mongolia comes close and has to win for contemporary military power, but it didn't last long until it shattered into however many khagantes.

Persia lasted an extremely long time and had tremendous influence but after Alexander never seemed to quite achieve its potential.

The Rashiduns of course changed the course of history pretty dramatically, and in the New World, the Aztecs and Inca had a huge amount going for them as imperial powers.

The USA is the most influential nation ever tBh

I'd say China has had a pretty large influence on the world, especially in East Asia.

>How could europe stop them?
They couldn't, the Mongols went as far as Poland before Gengis died. I believe the invention of Cannons and improvement in pikemen formation eventually phased Calvary as a whole out as well. Though I am pretty sure Parthians found a way to stop the nomads from constantly raiding them

Burn the countryside and dig in. Horse archers cannot attack fortifications on their own, and lose all of their advantages if you force them to wait for their logistical base to catch up and lay siege to a fortified position.

It would have dissolved under the weight of incestuous genetic disorder

It would have had done serious reforms to survive, but it'd be pretty based
I recon it would be called Rhomania

>>45084
They did call it that themselves, but I don't know if westerners would ever accept it.

>>45442
I thought some westerners occasionally referred to the empire as Rhomania

>Italy above ottoman empire

Italians had much difficulty with an army 1/2 their size while the ottomans started to decline only when they were starting to be overwhelmed.

Yes.

Why would you ask if a book was good after you bought it?

>I just bought this book on Amazon

Why?

>Is it any good?
If you like black and white/heroes and villains narratives of history from a leftist perspective, sure. If you want an actual, well researched history of the United States, look elsewhere. For that I would recommend the Oxford histories of America.

It's not that Jesus ripped off Buddhism but that the truth is the same whether you're Christian or Buddhist. Present moment mindfulness, the ephemeral nature of reality, the futility of worldly ambition - these are universal truths that are not confined to certain geographical areas or time periods

>Were Stalin's crimes actually that out of line with what it took to industrialize anywhere else?
No. But it is the hypocrisy of industrialising through capitalism and the unnecessary deaths such as the failure to have effective famine aid to halt the Holodomor and the brutality of the Ural Siberian method as a means of proletarianisation rather than using pull factors. Combine this with the failure to increase consumer products outputs and the channelling of most of the heavy industry output ("tractorisation") to black military projects rather than to capital goods production which is primarily attacked.

>He was not exactly wrong about the need to industrialize in a hurry or be crushed
A general European revolution in the 1930s is another option.

>the standard of living in Soviet Russia rose dramatically over the course of his time in power.
Both the 1930s growth spurt and the post 1946 growth spurt were improperly channeled towards capital goods production. Additionally, much of the former peasantry and urban proletariat would have liked a labour discipline system that wasn't reliant on the use of gulags against the mass of the population.

>Now, obviously his paranoia and the show trials and all that are hard to defend
Try some Sheila Fitzpatrick and Milovan Ðilas on why the show trials were "necessary" to discipline the party and nomenklatura.

>Capitalists like to act as though only states do these things, but it's not like events such as the Irish Potato Famine, or the Bengal Famine, or slavery, can be disconnected from capitalism and the profit motive.

It was the profit motive in the Soviet Union too. Failures to achieve profit targets resulted in black camps, gulags or death. Foremen and middle managers became stakhanovites by sweating surplus value from the working class.
