Why did Germany have such a puny African empire? Did they fear the black warrior?

That's a pretty big empire, really. Germany was late to the game obviously, but it did rapidly gain African colonies.

How did he do this? Did the Nazis let some random black guy waltz into their country?

Yeah contrary to belief. Nazis didn't really hate black people.

Most visiting African Americans were treated better in Germany than back in the United States.
>>
>>3162162
Can confirm. My great uncle visited in the 30's, Germans were polite and friendly unlike Americans.
>>
>>3162137

Going on vacation a foreign country is a lot easier than applying for permanent resident. The Nazis probably would have taken notice if he'd decided to stay, but harassing a foreign citizen just for visiting for a short period and then leaving would be extremely petty, even for them. If he'd applied for permanent residence, it probably would have been denied.

Would the Byzantine Empire have triumphed against the Persians if Justinian wasn't so hellbent on restoring Rome?
7 posts and 1 images submitted.
>>
>>3161967
Justinian was terrible at prosecuting wars, he relied on diplomatic subterfuge to get everything done and used belisarius as a crutch. Literally the only reason the byzantines beat the vandals was because he managed to cause revolts in other areas of their kingdom.

So no, against a strong and competent empire like sassanid persia, Justinian would have gotten dickstomped. That's why he was so willing to bend over and give the Persians mountains of gold to leave him alone.
>>
>>3161967
no
memestinian is easily one of the most overrated emperor in "roman" history
>>
>>3161967
No, Justinian was retarded and his projects of restoring Rome were not odd or unique at all. Leo sent expeditions against the vandals, Anastasius against the Ostrogoths, both way more well prepared and funded than Justinian's. Justinian just was lucky to have Belisarius, a man able to conquer Africa in a flash despite literally having 0 support from Constantinople. And also lucky to not live in the same generation as Theodoric and Geiseric.

What's some interesting food history? To start off, Japanese owes their curry to the British.

>British people brought curry from the Indian colony back to Britain and introduced it to Japan during the Meiji period (1868 to 1912), after Japan ended its policy of national self-isolation (sakoku), and curry in Japan was categorised as a Western dish.

>Its spread across the country is commonly attributed to its use in the Japanese Army and Navy which adopted it extensively as convenient field and naval canteen cooking, allowing even conscripts from the remotest countryside to experience the dish.

>What's some interesting food history?

The British (who live on an island, by the way) somehow didn’t know how to fry fish until the Jews taught them how.

Fried fish was first brought to England by Western Sephardic Jews,[2] and is considered the model for the fish element of the dish.[3] Originally, Western Sephardic Jews settling in England in the 17th century would have prepared fried fish in a manner similar to Pescado frito, which is coated in a flour.[4] Battered fish is first coated in flour then dipped into a batter consisting of flour mixed with liquid, usually water but sometimes beer. Some newer modifications to the recipe may have cornflour added, and instead of beer sometimes soda water is added.[5] In 1860, the first fish and chip shop was opened in London by Joseph Malin[6] who sold "fish fried in the Jewish fashion".[7]

In turn, curry was invented in India once the portuguese introduced american spices through Goa.
