>meanwhile the opening month of WW1 had them both throwing millions of men at each other

the Battle of the Frontiers was 1.3 million Germans against 1.25 million French.

Industralization, strategy and emphasis on nationalism across Europe made for a lot of guns and a lot of meat to be given said guns.
40 years is a big difference,compare todays militaries with militaries of 1977.

Once one country started a conscption army, the others had to follow suit,it was part of the arms race.

Only one country in Europe did not have a conscript army, Britain, which was all volunteer until 1916

>>2964476
parrtially they are.
celts had a footprint in almst all western europe...
then you have places where they were more present, or where they resisted and the legacy is bigger, like cornish, bretagne, galicia and portugal etc.

Scots are a coward race who spat on the freedom they could have had.

Highlanders are Lowlanders are not.

I value the humanities aspect as /his/ as much as the history aspect of this board.

Now give me a (You).

REEEEE GET OUT

Even though I am a straight white man, I am secretly a hopeless romantic and all the nihilism posts break my heart as I know they are probably true but can't bring myself to accept it.

We can dig up known archaeological sites and look for artifacts, and then extrapolate from other, extant societies with a similar level of technology.

>>2944236
This basically. At some point historians need to let the archaeologists, anthropologists, primatologists, etc. take over.

But what if there are tools but little to no cultural artifacts present, such as in the case of archaic homo (heidelbergensis, erectus, etc)?

Some context.

I was raised as one, my brothers and sisters are but not baptised, I am not either. I am 19 years of age same as my gf.

I think all organized religion is pretty fucking dumb.

What do you do that is different from normal society?

If you have to ask "how would China/India/X country develop without colonialism", look at Japan.
Japan got the best version of it - modern education to get revolutionaries, guns to arm them, western reforms to start proper manufacturing and so on.

So there would've been a few western educated indians, they would preach about how shit and backwards everything is, they'd get a crowd, arm them with western guns, and take over the place. This would inspire further revolutions and counter revolutions, the properly armed side will win, unification will be achieved, and modernization would begin.

>>2972276
>le every country is like japan meme
Oh wise one, tell me then why for instance Thailand, or Ethiopia, never developed like Japan, despite never being colonized.

>>2972276
What i was asking about was how would the borders look. If India would still be unified, or the cultural differences are too high for it to happen naturally

>>2972254
Less focus on converting people (after 2000 they either know about Jesus or just don't care/believe)

Less focus on judgement.

More focus on loving God.

More focus on helping fellow man.

Also keep it out of politics, and vice versa.

Lock them all in a room and don't let any of them out until they can actually convince neutral academics that there are no contradictions between the Old Testament and the New Testament.

More fanaticism. Less fundamentalism. More militantism. Less relativism.

>generally completely overlooked

Maybe in the US but the Eastern Front has been extensively researched famalamadingdong

In America? Because of the cold war mostly, there's a definite bais against Russia/eastern europe after that, just ask any American student who the first man in space was to confirm that.

Its certainly not overlooked and other parts of the world.

it is not

I ASSUME THAT BY "ALIENS" YOU MEAN EXTRATERRESTRIAL BEINGS FROM OTHER PLANETS.

"ALIENS", IN THE AFOREMENTIONED SENSE, DO NOT EXIST; WHAT ARE REFERRED TO AS "ALIENS" NOW ARE THE DJINN/DEMONS/FAIRIES/ELVES/VANIR//DEITIES, ET CETERA, OF MYTH, LEGEND, AND FOLKLORE.

>>2971950
Tell more about these beings

>>2971961

THEIR BODIES ARE MADE OF PLASMA, THEY WERE CREATED BEFORE HUMANS, THEY HAVE BEEN LIVING ON EARTH SINCE BEFORE HUMANS, THEY LIVE AT A HIGHER VIBRATIONAL FREQUENCY, WHICH IS WHY MOST HUMANS CANNOT USUALLY SEE THEM, THEY CAN SHOW THEMSELVES TO HUMANS IF THEY WANT, SOME ARE "EVIL", OTHERS ARE "GOOD".

Turns out that just because you're good at nation deconstruction doesn't necessarily mean you're good at nation construction.

These are pretty rad though.

You really want to get involved in a civil war the size of Europe?

Just right after WWII?

one is an easily accessible coastal province, one is a mountainous inland empire

If this is a question you're really asking you have a lot more to learn about the fundamentals of those time periods before you start making and reading theories
