The Turks had slave armies called "Janissaries", they kidnapped the sons of Kuffars (non-Muslims), brainwashed them, and turned them into slave-soldiers.

The South used slave soldiers during the Civil War.

Conquistadors used african slave soldiers.

>What were the immediate post-Civil War relations between the ex-CSA and the USA?

Things were very tense. The southern states were put under military governments during a process called "Reconstruction", which almost made the Southern States colonies. This lasted until 1877. Similarly, southerners detested northern "carpetbaggers" that came to live in the south.

>How many years was it before the average person in the south stopped holding a grudge against the northerners?

There's no hard-and-fast cutoff, but I've read that it wasn't until the Spanish-American War when the mutual bitterness subsided. However, the north-south divide was visible politically into the 1960s.

>Is there still any grudge between the north and south today?

Some, but it's relatively minor. The Great Plains and mountain NW are often "northern" but act more like southern states than other northern states, so the divide is more than just north-south.

>How many years was it before the average person in the south stopped holding a grudge against the northerners?

I have a lot of family in the Southern states. Even today there is a lot of animosity towards "Yankees" and there is still an apparent political divide, but it goes a lot further than the Civil War.

The United States of America conquered the Confederate States. It annexed and ruled them, and over time integrated them.

You are conquered people.

One thing I'd like to talk about is the Cremation of Care (see op pic). It's a play that's performed at Bohemian Grove every year and which invites the viewer to leave all their worries behind for a moment. It's even on Youtube. I have the habit of watching it on this date by myself.

Do you have any insights into this play? Like what traditions exactly they're drawing on, etc.? Only scholarly stuff, by the way, and no conspiracy theories. (/pol/ pls leave.)

>>2980679
Good stuff, got a youtube link?

Why is /leftypol/ still trying to turn /his/ into their colony? Your attempts failed miserably in the first few weeks. It's just embarressing now.
Saged.

Literally not hard to just go to /pol/ and complain about the Jews there.

Same reason the Spanish did in the Land of the Mapuche.

Btw, I know you didn't watch anime and are simply posting "anime girl" but I ought to inform you. Megumin hates frogs.

Good luck getting an answer that doesn't involve bootlicking or temporarily embarrassed millionaire mentality.

Because the board of directors hired them for that amount of money. CEOs are just another employee and can be hired and fired whenever for whatever amount of money. The big shareholders are the ones who truly wield money and authority.

Go to sleep Gibbon. And take your Enlightenment memes with you. You're supposed to be dead.

Explain the Byzantine empire, if anything Christinaity sustained them for longer than it would have. Only big weakness they got in that regard was iconoclasm.

Rome was falling with or without christianity. It didn't cause it to fall but it didn't alleviate it either.

even worse, you often worship your local spirits and interpretation of deities. spirits are tied to the land, they live in stones, springs, groves, mountains, rivers and lakes.

>>2980401
>Is it inherently ethnocentric
No, there's nothing stopping an Ionian making offerings to a Dorian's hero, or a Roman aristocrat worshiping the same goddess as a Nubian.

>how do you properly practise european paganism?
With sacrifices!

>>2980401
>how do you properly practise european paganism?
As in authentically as some Europeans did ages ago? You can try and do what you can but a lot of information is lost, not to mention that paganism was never monolithic and naturally varied from place to place, so there's the additional headache of that out.
>Is it inherently ethnocentric?
Not necessarily but there tends to attract groups of people practicing for aesthetic reasons as opposed to purely spiritual, wether it be just reactionary Wicca bullshit or "much traditions and ancestors" types.

His videos are nice entertainment for sure. They're also great because he doesn't pollute them with useless commentary.

Primitive technology is best :D and australians :D

I guess what I meant but my brain was failing to put into words earlier was, in lieu of such a fact, would /his/ still consider his videos historical or just more of a wilderness survival guide?
Btw, I totally agree. It's a breath of fresh air from all those youtube and TV attention whores who pointlessly have to force commentary and have the camera on them.

Here's a meme response you earned it

>>2980222
so what are your thoughts on people who convert to another religion ? does it mean they just choose morality based on their comfort ?

>>2980205
you don't have to consider the law fair and reasonable to obey it. you just have to recognize that people have power over you and will enforce their law through punishments if you do not obey.

t. an atheist who obeys the laws

The British were just enforcing the NAP. Who is the Qin regime to prevent the Chinese from committing a victimless "crime"?
