DID THE HOLOCAUST REALLY HAPPEN?
While it may have happened, the numbers are HIGHLY exaggerated.
I'm pretty sure many here can accept that it did happen, but not at such an exaggerated scale. There were many other factors that lead to so many Jews being killed, and even then 6 million is a bit much.

All history before 1970s was faked in order to control humans.
Is linear historical progress a myth?
linear? yes
progress? no
Yes, Marx just appropriated the ideas of Hegel (Historical Materialism).
Today's libtards just unconsciously channel it without really realizing that what they believe in is something that has ideological roots.
Progress in what? Technology? Mathematics? Science? Morality? 'Civilisation'?

Prokudin-Gorskii was a genius, his photos quality is incredible considering they were made in 1911
Pic related is Alim Khan, last emir of Bukhara.
>In March 1918 activists of the Young Bukharan Movement (Yeni Bukharlylar) informed the Bolsheviks that the Bukharans were ready for the revolution and that the people were awaiting liberation. The Red Army marched to the gates of Bukhara and demanded that the emir surrender the city to the Young Bukharans. As Russian sources report, the emir responded by killing the Bolshevik delegation, along with several hundred Russian supporters of the Bolsheviks in Bukhara and the surrounding territories. The majority of Bukharans did not support an invasion and the ill-equipped and ill-disciplined Bolshevik army fled back to the Soviet stronghold at Tashkent.

1. Victoria
2. Elizabeth II
3. Catherine the Great
Wait, I meant Elizabeth I. Number II hasn't really done anything of significance.

Personally I pick Wei.

What does /his/ think of Crash Course History? Fair and balanced view of world history or literal trash?
Beyond being trash. Constantly tries to push a far-left agenda. See his video on Alexander the Great.
Total garbage. John Green is a hack in every field he's wormed his way into.

It has a left-leaning bias but isn't too bad. I don't agree with it being used in schools but whatever. Guess that's the quality of AP History.
Anyone up for an art thread?

The story behind this picture is great.
Why have views on prostitution have changed over time?
whores weren't necessarily treated with the up most respect but it was viewed as something a society needed.
>>25924
How have they changed? Prostitution is still legal and accepted in a lot of countries, and they're still not treated with the utmost respect.
Increasing belief in the perfectability of society and man.
Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.
Tell me about Vlad the Impaler.

He got fucked by his cousin Mathew. Lead to him being imprisoned by the turkish. Had rough pollicies and it is considered one of the bloodiest in the history of the romanian people. His cousin Steven the Great was actually the bloodshedding tard...but he covered that up by building monasteries and shit.... Had nothing toddo with dracula, never led Transilvania...he was assigned to rule the ,,Romanian country,, as it was called back then when Romania was divided in 3: Moldova, Transilvania, The romanian country
>>25833
Fought for the independence of the romanian people. Tried to end the hungarian opression, kept the southern border where it was...made safe trading routes....was based af like all the romanian leaders back then.
I read on another thread here that he was present at the siege of Constantinople under a pseudonym
Alternate History Discussion #1
The rise and fall of the Roman Empire
>what if Rome failed, and was conquered by barbarians early on in its development (pre 0AD)
>what if Rome never failed (allowing East and west Seperation, what if Rome didn't fall to barbarians late 4th century?)
Discuss
Looking for discussion on the resulting immediate (100-500 years) and long term (500-present) changes in everything these scenarios could cause
