UK or US? Uni level or more college stuff?

Like settling in a new, promising land.
Lots of wild animals and riffraff to fight first, also the landscape needs some slash and burn.
Just report the /pol/ nonsense diligently and this might turn out fine.

Not really no.

If you mean it in the broad sense, the Scientific Revolution since Descartes has led to the period with by far the fastest scientific and technological progress in human history, and it's still going on today.

If you just mean the political Enlightenment of the 18th century, the ideas of Rousseau and other thinkers of the time still form the basis for our entire concept of nation-states, constitution, and laws since the French Revolution.

The only dent is that Enlightenment founded the Modern Era, and today we live in the Postmodern Era which is all about deconstructing everything including what Enlightenment has built. Still, there's nothing to replace it.

Great analysis, I was going to memespout but your post convinced me not to.

>>31899
Go read Foucault and then suggest a proposition yourself.

Portuguese history is under emphasized IMO, they have a very interesting history.

I liked reading about the rise of the Arabs and before that as well, with the Lakhmids and Ghassanids.

You should know, it's not about where, it's about who and when.

If you want to be a hipster, find some obscure faggots from a place irrelevant for its period, and you're done.

Liberum veto?

>>31673

democracy went wrong

>>31673
The Liberum Veto. That's seriously it, the frequent devastating invasions in the 17th century didn't help but the petty noblemen paralysing the government because muh ancestral rights was 100% responsible for it becoming a failed state unable to defend itself surrounded by 3 great powers, and once you're a failed state unable to defend yourself surrounded by 3 great powers the rest is inevitable.

>>31750
I'm curious. Why don't people want to discuss this? First I've ever heard of this.

It's /pol/s scapegoat for "All modern politics except for stormfag tier is jewish gommunism :DDDD".

His "empire hooray!" views are really off-putting. My lecturers told us to steer clear of his nonsense.

It helped, but entering World War 2 helped more.

Doing nothing would have hurt rather than helped.

>>31363
The market would have fixed itself.

Yes

I'd say ask your grandparents about it but I always forget mine are way older than yours

It's really hard to find someone who actually lived through the depression and WW2 who didn't think the new deal helped
