What is the least discussed but still fascinating historical

Nazi Germany and Hitler are pretty overlooked

Honestly i feel like the Muslims are the underdogs of history.

Literally given the worst place to work with, yet these bare footed sheepherders managed to not just topple one, not two, and not three, but four major world powers of their time despite being -almost- always over numbered and having poorer equipment.

>area that starts civilization
>underdogs
No. Unless you mean Arabs, muslims had it pretty easy conquering already established civilizations. If anything Christianity is that way as outside of the Mediterranean Europeans were litteral stepnigger tier until Christianity enlightened them. Almost a reverse of Islam where savages converted civilized people.

Compared to the long-lasting impacts on the shape of the world, technology and migrations it left, the Finno-Korean Hyperwar is overlooked.

Kanem-Bornu, Kongo, Songhai, Jolof, Fulani, Air, Toucouleur, Mali, Makuria, Ethiopia, Funj, Majerteen, Dahomey, and a shitton of other states that managed to exist prior to 1880

or are you just retarded enough to argue about sub-saharan africa on bad faith

The often-forgotten PEI independence movement.

nice memes

non of them can hardly even be considered as villages, and the majority would be nowhere without the aids from Europeans and arabs.

>>2576177
I would say Hellenistic period. Archimedes, Euclid, Eratosthenes, etc. all were products of Hellenistic science, yet the Hellenistic period is poo-pooed as somehow a regression from Classical Greece.

Ethiopia.

Oldest royal dynasty in the world outside of Japan, melting pot of different religions, only African country to escape colonization (brief military occupation doesn't count).

>>2576257
The only reason they got as far as they did was their unity. Notice that both times Europeans actually stopped killing each other for 5 seconds and focused on fighting Muslims together, the Muslims got buttfucked.

>>2576177
I feel as a Brit we don't get taught anything at all. Even at degree level the general processes of the the course is analysing the past 200-300 years of the development of European nation-states, Cold War and WW1/WW2.

I don't think its as much historical periods that we miss out on but the state-centric lenses in which we look at history through.

The Ottomans are fascinating, as well as a lot of African history like Musa I.

>>2576727
Which two times do you refer to and are you sure that the claim couldn't be reversed during those two times, i.e. that the Europeans then only got so far because of disunity within the Muslim world?

>>2576712

Ones about diseases, pandemics, famines, that kind of stuff.
I almost never see this place discuss them despite the great influence they have had on history

>>2576747
Geez you /pol/friends get extremely triggered whenever anything African is seen in an even marginally positive light.

>>2576762
I'm convinced that entire board has to be a some nihilistic parody or inside joke to make politics even more ridiculous than it already is.

Someone in my country phoned into a talk show and called an economist at the LSE a "snowflake" for questioning Trump's economic policies.

If you consider having two working eyes and a memory that last longer than a goldfish's

all that's required to notice the weekly "why didn't Africans have any kingdoms" follower by a list of African kingdoms

to be something only black supremacist worshiping SJW have

then you probably ARE inbred.

Pre-colonial SSA history in general is pretty cool but hugely under-studied. There's an enormous amount of archeology to be done on Mali Empire sites.

I think muslims are pretty cool too, in a historical sense. But you're not going to get much discussion on it because kids are impressionable and 4chan influences their opinions and beliefs

Great wars in the nordic region.

I like how the general consensus has become "snowniggers never achieved anything" and "snowniggers are cucks" without examining the fact that the region was locked in constant warfare from like the 10th to early 20th century.

After the students of Cyril and Methodius created the Cyrillic, the Byzantine empire baptized people of Kiev Rus, with the help of Bulgarian priests, who brought Cyrillic to Russia.
He almost accepted Christianity from the Pope, by the way.
