Let me remind you of how /his/ started.
There was essentially 4 main groups.

1. Romeboos. They were obviously very large because who the fuck doesn't know even a little bit about Rome?
2. /pol/fags looking to make this /pol/ with dates. Not so large a group because people mostly ignored them.
3. General newbies to history who play EU4 and whatnot and decide they want to learn things.
4. Norseboos.

Vikingboos spammed threads. Deadliest warrior threads were constant, as they decided nobody could beat vikings in hand to hand combat. Threads about rich norse culture were spammed, and threads about celts, franks or literally any white european pagan or even early to mid-medievil people were filled with how much vikings bullied them

People constantly hailed Vikings as the coolest guys ever, and obviously the only history worth talking about-likely because of that shite TV show.

Naturally, people here got sick of it and so the natural response to vikingboo posts was "fuck off, faggot."

Vikingboos got annoyed by this and now all you see is "why are vikings bullied on this board?" and "why does /his/ hate vikings?"

Note that there is barely ever any talk of Scandinavia on this board-usually one or two threads every few weeks-that doesn't revolve around vikings. This is usually becaue viking shitters come in and shit it up.

The big difference between Romaboos and all other boos is that Roman history is still a relevant, active topic that resonates with modern issues and political complexity, and people can actually debate due to the depth of material and understanding of it.

Vikings? Once and always irrelevant. Japanese? Just more feudal jerk off in the end.

The top three, in no particular order, ought to be weebs, Naziboos, and Vikings. I admit that freely as someone with a boner for Viking Age history. Fucking normies are the worst, and seem to can't grasp history beyond memes and reductionist stupidity.

Communists are pretty awful too, but I'm not sure if you could describe them as fanboys or adherents to a political ideology. Either way they're mostly insufferable. I'd actually say they'd take number one, with weaboos, wehraboos, and ragnarboos in a three-way tie for second place.

It is worth noting that a lot of the area around Mexico City has really not been surveyed or excavated that thoroughly (because it's a big fucking city, and also Mexico).

Oh for sure, but you can't add shit to the image that we don't have images of yet because it hasn't been excavated yet.

Also, the fact of the matter is that even though there's probably a ton of shit underneath the city and hillsides, most of it will never be found or excvayed because it would damage the structures above it.

The largest pyramid on the planet is in Mexico and we know where it is but we'll never dig most of it up or explore most of it because it would risk damaging a historical cathedral that was built on top of it, pic related

If the coming of the ottomans was so bad then all those greeks wouldn't become muslims and after that turks.

Except it was the exact opposite.
Norseboos were a marginal presence at best, while anti-vikingboos were shitting up every thread about Norse people since the beginning.

You couldn't even mention anything Nordic without idiots constantly spamming "snownigger" memes.

There were months were we had an almost daily "Why are vikings so shit?" thread.

It's the largest single human monument constructed by mass.

It's only about half as tall of the great pyramid of giza but it's many times wider.
