BLATANTLY, THAT IS NOT GOD; GOD IS NOT AN ANTHROPOMORPHIC BEING.

Yeah, if god looks a white man with white hair, then perhaps it is G-d. Made man in his image. Makes me think God was an Australopithecine

In school, we learnt about all the Ancient Cultures. I remember looking at the pictures of Lucy and Ashurbanipal Wrestling the lion. That's when I fell in love with History and Art History

A divided Europe is always in the Anglo's best interest. And it's a damn good idea. America now practices those same policies.

>britain obviously knew beforehand that they would lose their empire after the war

Wehraboo logic.

If the British hadn't continued the war then either the Americans would have threatened war with them to force them to continue after Pearl Harbor and the outcome would have been the same or the Americans would have stayed out of Europe and the Soviets would have probably conquered all of it including Britain.

>up to 212 AD
lmao who cares

>>3115172

The book ends in 212 AD because that is when the Edict of Caracalla took place, granting universal citizenship to all men living in the empire and thus erasing the distinction between the conquerors and the conquered.

Financial rating system?
Credit card system?
Testing scoring system?
Education credit system?

>>3115069
First/second one. The reason I ask is that my father wrote his doctoral thesis on his approach to credit scoring in the 70s and said it was quite a new subject.

>>3115052

After the Civil Rights Act. Credit scores were devised as a way to evaluate potential borrowers objectively and without the slightest hint of racial discrimination.

>Was this an inevitable outcome of Marius' reforms
Yes, because Marius's reforms were a limp-wristed compromise which didn't go nearly far enough
>could something have been done to keep the soldiers loyal to nation first?
Yes, a state pension for the soldiers, perhaps some kind of state-managed land distribution program to put retiring soldiers on good farms.

Marian reforms were the first professional army in history, and wouldn't have caused problems if the Senate just paid the damn army. Throughout Roman history the Senate could've just pooled their resources and created an army loyal to them but instead they left it to the the generals and eventually the Caesars and wondered why their influence and popularity waned so much.

>>3114797

The very first thing Augustus did upon seizing power was to making sure the legions would remain loyal to the emperor by having the emperor pay all salaries directly, plus a substantial retirement package for those who retired after serving at least 16 years. He also changed the rules regarding Triumphs (victorious military parades) so that a Triumph could only be led by the emperor himself, or by a member of his immediate family. In this way, it was made clear that the Legions, and their generals, were all subordinate to the Emperor.

Nah they feared walking 1,000 miles in the desert with nothing fucking there to eat or drink.

Why didn't the Romans colonize the moon? Why didn't the Romans live under the sea? Why didn't the Romans build round squares?

Why didn't China conquer the Mediterranean? Did they fear the Italian warrior?

My Great Grandpa fought in WW2. He was in France about 2 weeks after D-Day and was Master-Sargent who dealt with communications primarily.
One of my Grandpa's fought in Korea, however he was stationed in the Medteranean to protect Italy/Spain/Greece from any USSR attack.
Another grandpa fought in Vietnam, he was stationed on some base near the border. He never really saw any action but they had weekly attacks by the Vietcong where the USAF would just napalm them.
My Step-brother was also stationed in Hong Kong a few years ago, as the first line of defense against the Chinks.

>>3114680
All I really know is that my grandfather occupied Japan. He was a bit too late for WWII. My grandmother's two older brothers fought at the very end, and her little brother joined right afterwards, though. This is all maternal, as my father never really talked about family history, and died shortly after his father, when I was in my 'tweens, and his mother lived in California, and I never knew her.
I should get on Ancestry, or something.

Also a relative who I can't exactly place in relation to me who was at the Battle of Jutland. These are just the ones I know about but I suspect my family has been in the thick of it for a very, very long time

Have you ever read any of George Soros books?

In the Alchemy of Finance he pretends an open society is one that embraces capitalism and free markets, but in his other books he shows his true colour.

He's the most evil Jewish communist alive.

Until Tokagawa finally managed to take over everything, Japan was a collection of warlords that constantly battled for supremacy. People identified much more strongly with their locality than with the "nation." This is part of the reason why the Imperial Japanese were so fanatical about stressing national spirit, they were trying to actively dissolve local identities in favor a new national identity.

>>3114394
So we're their kind of local currencies all over the place?

To regulate trade going both ways, present an obstacle for upstart tribes, to show them what Rome was capable of just to keep out some rabble rousers far from the center of power, to protect Roman citizens and investments south of it, to give the legions something to do...
Hadrian was the last good Emperor, fight me.
