>pseudepigraphic work which pretends to be a revelation from God communicated through R. Simeon ben Yoḥai
> the country in which the work originated it is necessary to ascertain where and when the Jews became intimately acquainted with the Hindu philosophy, which more than any other exercised an influence on the Zohar
>only to the Hindus...Aryabhatta in the first century before the common era... the Vedanta school of the Hindu philosophers ... so many admirers as in Persia in the eighth century. Under its influence the Mohammedans of Persia founded many mystic sects(Sufis). This hindu mystic movement did influence upon the Persian Jews, various sects('Isawites, the Yudghanites, etc.,) based on Vedanta philosophy. Thus the Yudghanites abstained from meat, led ascetic lives, set aside the literal meaning of the Torah for a supposed mystic interpretation, and believed in metempsychosis, etc. All these sects had their sacred writings, which they kept secret; and these writings formed the Zohar, which is a mystic commentary on the Pentateuch, as the upanishads are the mystic interpretation of the Vedas and other Brahmanic scriptures. In its peregrinations from Persia to Spain the Zohar probably received many additions and interpolations, among which may have been the various names of the Tannaim and Amoraim, as well as the allusions to historical events.

What are some examples of flash in the pan empires?
Holy Roman Empire
Makedonian
The first, and second, Mexican empires.
The Mongol Empire.
The Japanese Empire.
The third Reich.
Why didn't Mongols just conquer all of the world?
Did they fear the Black warrior?

What really went down in the Belgian Congo? Was it the veritable rape of an entire country and people? Was it Europeans tapping into resources the natives would've never taken advantage of? Was it European colonialism at its most savage? Was it an AnCaps wet dream?
How well documented was this period in time for the Congo?

Belgians told local niggers to police other niggers and the niggers turned the place into a bloodbath.
>>3045006
That's not how it happened
>>3045006
because the policing negroes would also die along with the servant negroes if the needed rubber quota wasnt reached
The Austronesian people settled most of the islands of the Pacific, even Madagascar off the African coast. With this achievement, how come they did not settled that island-continent called Australia?
>>3044870
>Hey dude, there's that big island there..
>Nah, fuck Australia
>>3044870
I won't hazard a guess as I don't know the ethnic group very well. But I would like to observe that I was aware that the corners of Polynesia - NZ, Hawaii, and Easter Island - were the last habitable places on earth to be settled by human beings, all circa 1,000 years ago (or more if one accepts the graphic). I guess I just didn't know that it was the so-called Austronesians who did it, then.
Austronesians are Indonesians, Malays, Filipinos, Polynesians, Taiwanese aborigines, Malagasy, and more. It's just really mindboggling how they missed that island-continent.

ignore the actual context where nips were in a pretty hopeless position anyway, what could a nation at that tech/industry level get out of it fast enough to affect the course of a war? could some kind of political utility be gained from this?
If Hiroshima or Nagasaki was a dud, the bomb would've been smashed to the point it would be near impossible to reverse engineer.
Even if the japs were given full plans for a bomb, they wouldn't be able to get enough uranium needed to build it and they wouldn't be able to fly a bomber anywhere near a strategic US target.
The best they could do is threaten to give other nations any intel they got on the dud, which probably wouldn't have convinced the US to stop. More nukes would be dropped ubntil the Emperor took action and surrendered. Worst case scenario it speeds up the nuclear programs of other nations by a couple years.

If it was a dud then not much, because it didn't work.
There wasn't some special scientific secret that was discovered as part of Project Manhatten, the science was open knowledge and a number of countries were at work to create nukes. The issue was finding the right materials, specifications etc to make a bomb i.e. one that actually went boom when dropped. The Russians had nukes by 1946 and basically every country that's ever wanted to build them seems to have managed.

Nothing really, you need the right radioactive stuff.

Which historical ruler fucked up the most by being autistically incompetent?

probably hitler though it's hard to say if there's a line between not even pretending to want to do anything right and just fucking up horribly
>>3044764
BEING INCOMPETENT IS NOT SOMETHING "BAD"; BEING COMPETENT IS, BECAUSE THE COMPETENT PERSON, FOLLOWING ITS URGE FOR COMPETENCE, CREATES AN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH EVERYONE ELSE NEEDS TO COMPETE.
>>3044780
following this logic competence is a form of incompetence
also incompetence is bad and you suck cocks
