Carthaginians extract tribute for some time, but eventually some Greeks - maybe Macedon or Epirus come and kick them out.

>>3140478
To expand upon this: In the event of a Carthaginian victory, the city of Rome would have been thrown into irrelevance, similarly to how when Romans fucked Carthage, Utica became the new center of the region . If another city were to eventually rise to prominence, it would most likely be one of Carthage's former allies, because they would have escaped devastation: maybe Syracuse or Magna Graecia. Even so, it is highly unlikely that any of them could reach the glory of the Roman Empire simply because of chance.

They didn't start it but were the primary aggressor and jumped at the chance to attack their neighborhoods.

Japan wasn't at war with the Soviet Union. And it is silly to even consider a second land war in asia when the majority of their troops is bogged down in China.

Remnants of the collapsing Spanish empire and Napoleon's disinterest in the new world creates several new countries to the west of the United states. Some alternate form of manifest destiny crops up, the u.s conquers these fledgling kingdoms seen as illegitimate by the European powers, and the u.s.a as we know today comes into existence albeit a little more fragile due to the history of imperialism in the minds of its conquered citizens.

Heavy resistance from natives, French opposition, or simply the lack of desire to do so.

good thread
all christians should become real christians so they'll be extinct withing a generation desu

Christianity is not Gnosticism dumbass. Paul says that there are different vocations for different persons. God's kingdom is composed of husbands, wives, farmers, craftsmen, and even kings and rulers, not just monks and clergymen, although the later are to be regarded as guides and teachers.

>>3140006
>Gnosticism
>he thinks gnosticism is monastic
Gnosis means knowledge. From the standpoint of pure knowledge it's completely irrelevant what your vocation is. "Gnosticism" is not a religion.

Slavoj was against slovenian independence so he would have tried to make a new alliance with the Serbs.

I would love to see Slavoj giving the finger and speaking in broken english at NATO.
