So why are Italians considered unintelligent by the world when they have an average 102 IQ?

Is there something there? Are the upper classes really intelligent or does Rome still live on?

Because of uneducated immigrants that left for America

>>3041297
That's my question, I'm wondering if there's any significance because I think most of the immigrants came from the south of Italy which has been like the south of many countries lol.

I'm wondering if the intelligentsia in Europe reside in the upper half of Italy. It's had two major renaissances that started directly from them.

oh yeah and ethiopia fucking sucks

I was listening to an interview with Craig Winn (yah I know he's kind of crazy) on Coast to Coast AM. And he made an argument that really got me thinking and I wanted your views on it.

I'm paraphrasing here, but he basically said that the first Gulf War was fought for Bush's best interest, not America's best interest. He claimed that the real reason the war was started was to stop Iraq from taking Saudi Arabia after Kuwait, because of George Bush's business deals with the Saudi's.

He went on to say that America's best interest would have been to stay out and let Saddam go on and declare war on the Saudi's and eventually annex them. He claimed that with him in charge of Iraq/Kuwait/Arabia that terrorism over the next years would have dramatically decreased. He used the example that Iraq averaged 3 terrorist attacks a year under Saddam vs. the 1000's a year that happen now.

So my question is do you think he is right? Was it the wrong decision?

Heh I caught that episode last night too anon. It's sad just how much the average guest circles the drain these days last night's show was with Winn was really good.
>>
>>3040851
Yes it was a great episode. It's really had me wondering how it could have played out. He had some very interesting ideas. They still put good shows together occasionally.

If it had been played a little differently, Saddam could have been the guy basically in charge of the middle east. He would have made a strong ally for the US. One capable of keeping Iran in check.

Foreign empires in Africa:
Carthage
Assyria
Persia
Macedonia(Alexander)
Napoleon
Ottomans
Moors

Foreign empires who attempted to invade Sub-Saharan Africa:
Moors (with gunpowder; failed to invade)

Carthage opted to take over the Greeks

Why isn't Sub-Saharan Africa successful? <- Why are these threads being created?

Why did every empire that had the chance, forgo the opportunity to take over the much weaker/smaller african states/tribes in their "resource rich" areas of the continent to fight for resources elsewhere. There is a reason that maps of Africa were limited-shit trade routes, crossing a desert to get malaria and have the horse you rode in on die isn't a fun trip.

The agriculture is shit and its always been a shitty place to live that any world power would have forgone the opportunity to take it over until the colonial period where there was extreme pressure to acquire property.

diseases like malaria didn't get very far out of sub saharan africa and raped european settlers in the 19th century, and presumably other invaders. theres also the massive jungle right in the middle that has no comparison in north africa, europe, or the middle east. the jungle in myanmar acted as a barrier that kept the indians out of southeast asia, and the jungle in africa probably acted as a similarly impenetrable thing.

How exactly were the Nazis not 100% right about life being a struggle of existence between races and ethnicities? Population really is everything in the long run.

A slightly higher standard of living is meaningless if your native population can't even replenish yourself and ends up getting outbred by """"immigrants"""".

>muh overpopulation,muh Asia muh africa

He was right. Nazism proved to be a shitty inferior ideology defeated by both the Communists and Democratic West.

Culture is more important than ethnicity. The trouble I have with immigration isn't that other races are coming in, it's that they're taking their (generally inferior) cultural attitudes with them and shitting up a good thing.

say the Nazis actually took Moscow, how the Hell do they win from there? How could Hitler possible take out Russian infrastructure in the Urals or to the east? Meme historians and even half of the mainstream consensus seems to be the Soviets were on the verge of losing, why do they think this?

Not looking to bait I'm genuinely curious and feel like I'm missing some understanding here. it was my understanding Stalin put a lot of infrastructure in place in the case of a successful invasion and capture of Moscow.

Moscow was the railway hub of western russia.

Remove trains and your fighting a WW1 style of war (which the germans won)
>>
>>3039404

Actually, I played an interesting HOI4 game as Germany.

Denmark went Communist and the UK declared war on them which lead to Communist Denmark joining the Commintern and the Allies went to war with the Soviets.

As Germany I gave Slovakia to the Poles for Danzig. Then seeing me as not as a threat the Poles formed their own faction in the Baltics. I back stabbed the Poles without a gurantee from the Allies and occupied them and the Baltics.

Then I joined the Allies war on the Soviets. France invaded through Finland and the UK through the Crimea.

Eventually I got the Japanese to invade Siberia and we put down the Soviets without having to go all the way to the Urals.

After that I declared war on the Allies.

Taking Moscow doesn't mean they can't move trains east of it.
Germany's railways weren't exactly efficient either.

Their structures are still standing more than 1,500 years after the last centurion snuffed it: now the Romans’ secret of durable marine concrete has finally been cracked.

The Roman recipe – a mix of volcanic ash, lime (calcium oxide), seawater and lumps of volcanic rock – held together piers, breakwaters and harbours. Moreover, in contrast to modern materials, the ancient water-based structures became stronger over time.

the Romans were aware of the virtues of their concrete, with Pliny the Elder waxing lyrical in his Natural History that it is “impregnable to the waves and every day stronger”.

Lime was a much used substance in the Roman Empire that had to be made from burning limestone with charcoal or quality hardwood. Rome's insatiable appetite for lime would have been the cause of large scale deforestation of western europe. Indeed, it is very likely that Agricola march his army into Scotland to secure supplies of lime for the building of the colosseum.
