Basil II (Prime Minister)
Orde Wingate (Minister of Defence)
Milton Keynes (Minister of Economy)
Voltaire (Minister of Foreign Affairs)

Milton Friedman as my economic advisor
Otto von Bismarck as head of my diplomatic corps
Yi Sun-sin as head of the Navy
Erwin Rommel as head of the Army
Federico da Montafeltro as my Prime Minister
John Snow as my Health advisor
Theodora as my internal affairs assistant
Michael Faraday as my Minister of Sciences

It would be pretty stupid to take people from a different time period, toss them into a new one, and expect them to do well. So I certainly wouldn't do something retarded like take Bismarck to the 17th century or Voltaire to the 20th.

Metternich for Diplomacy. Talleyrand was probably more skillful, but he is not someone to trust.

He was one of the greatest practical philosophers ever. He would cure many societal problems.

You know how to have fun, I respect that.
Not sure about Caesar and Bonaparte though.

I would clone Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Perigord and have him run everything.

>>3107420
Who?

>>3107436
i should have realized this thread was summer when all the names were famous generals and shit.

I post an actual famous statesman and you dont even have the fucking sense to google it before you look retarded

>>3107442
>Get upset because not everybody on this board is focused on French history

The anon literally asked who, calm your loins. He doesn't look retarded from this, only you do.

>>3107493
>that anon
>he looks it up and then pretends to be another person

you literally cant make this shit up

fuck off summer

>>3107503
Your paranoia is hilarious, but No.3107493 wasn't my post, and yes, I'm a Summerfag, but at least I'm not a belligerent cunt.

>>3107503
Nice autism you got there.

>>3107542
keep digging that hole retard, you dont even realize that threads track how many unique people post, otherwise you wouldnt try to lie.

You and the rest of you idiots that dont know anything about history should go back to /v/ or /tv/ or wherever the hell you came from. These "please list some famous names for me so I can look smart for my friends" threads are obvious.

In fact, just stay in these threads. Stay away from actual discussions, or better yet, read a book.

Sorry, faggot, you're just an ass.

Inb4

>Phoneposting

It's comfy

>>3107560
Retard, because I don't know an obscure French politician from the ass end of history?
It's people like you that are the reason so few people care for history anymore.
Also, it's /tg/ not /tv/.
/v/ are actual autists, so don't compare me to them
Lastly, I will go thoroughbred /tg/ neckbeard on you if you don't calm down.

>>3107570
thats a lot of effort to get off your computer, find the thread on your phone, and then pretend to be another person.

If you put half that much effort into actually reading history you might have known who the most famous statesman of the napoleonic era was, the literal bismarck or churchill of his time, thats how uncultured you are.

>>3107582
>obsure French politician
>Talleyrand
>still only knows what he scanned from wikipedia

youre adorable. you should leave /his/

>>3107560
>I know history more than anybody else here because I know a French statesmen

Honestly, I prefer the people here for fun and learning over the wanna-be elitists. Your like tend to add nothing of value yet shit up threads with this arrogant bs.


>>3107588
>Autism
Sorry, my focus in history is in antiquity and thalassocrocies/maritime republics. That tends not to include France.

And before you spout
>Summer!!!!!
>Samefaggg

Here are my current posts, faggot

>>3102678
>>3107493
>>3107570

Uncultured? because I don't know some obscure French politician from the ass end of history?
Seriously, calm your tits, you're worse than the furries back when they tried to claim warhammer wednsdays on be, may the bitch 'flare' long burn in the 9th circle of hell.

>>3107614
>responding to an obvious troll

>>3107582
Talleyrand very well known if you study French history, or really that time period. But that is besides the fact. This guys just a faggot who wants to feel smart on an Tibetan photoshop website.

>>3107614
Scipio was a good choice, but Sun Tzu is still better.

>>3107619
Sorry, I just want to give his life a little purpose

>>3107633
Probably, but the Punic wars are just one of my favorite topics, so had to include him.

this thread deserves to burn for attracting plebs like flies to a lantern.

Actually, if we could let them all in and then burn it down, that might be the best solution.

You only see threads like this in the summer. Filled with absolute retards who dont know who Talleyrand is. Adorable.

Have fun plebs

>>3107395
Either way, I'm standing by my choices.
Except maybe Dandridge, that was a spur of the moment thing.

>>3107642
>muh punic wars

so are you trying to sound like "babby's first /his/ post" or does that just come naturally to you?

>>3107644
Oh my God! He was a fucking troll, how could I have been so blind? I've never seen that shit on /tg/ before. The shock and horror of it all!

>>3102794
Rommel is infamous for his capability as a general and utter failure as a field marshal, why the pick?

>>3107651
Ironic, considering it actually is my first /his/ post, and I'm still proud of it, no matter what you and your ilk say.

>>3107660
lol

this thread is literally cancer. All of your lists are pleb shit. Like youre desperately just listing every historical figure you know
>caesar
>napoelon
>scipio
>hannibal
>fucking abraham lincoln

I think im the one getting trolled if you guys are serious

>>3107651
What's wrong with liking the Punic wars? I'm into Phoenicia and Carthage so obviously I'm going to study the Punic Wars.

>>3107675

Huh? That was my post m8

>>3107683
>Ignoring Hannibal's effectiveness as a statesmen

K

>>3107683
No, it's just your trolling bouncing off of us and back onto you.

>>3107692
just stop. saying "im interested in the punic wars" is like saying "i like -insert top40 artist- and trying to have a discussion about it on /mu/, or making a cowboy bebop thread on /a/ or a game of thrones thread on /tv/

lurk more, read some books, this is pathetic. Start with talleyrand, guy was top notch

>>3107692
Sorry, thought it was his n00bish attempt at trolling.

>>3107703
i love how you bounce your retardation off each other and calm each other down, some good retard teamwork right here.

>>3107700
and Mary Seacole and zeno of Citium weren't.
We could either sit down and discuss these things, or we could keep on bitching and whining until we ruin the thread for everyone.

>>3107716
when the thread is this shitty the latter seems preferrable. Id enjoy talking to you guys about history about as much as Id enjoy hearing a homeless bum what he thinks of the real estate market.

>>3107700
Like I said, interested in antiquity and thalassocrocies, so going to stick with this over periods and countries I really have no interest in.

Sorry I happen to also like something popular, not everything has to be niche or obscure (Talleyrand obviously isn't, but you get my point).

>Read a book
Currently reading The Phoenicians and the West. I'd recommend it if that period is your thing

>>3107703
You're really not helping yourself

>>3107731
If you don't stop bitching and whining, I will spam this thread with porn, Courtesy of /s/, /b/ and /tg/.
Or you could discuss this in a civilised fashion and use the thread as intended.

I would vastly prefer a discussion, but it's your choice.

WAIT NO! I don't want Sun Tzu as my minister for war, I want raving mad Jack Churchill!

>>3102827
I think he meant the other kind

>>3102372
Realistically speaking, having ministers from another era would do you no good: The whole reason that they would be capable ministers is because they actually know what the fuck is going on. Although I would appoint Jesus Christ to be my chief evangelist (my pet celebrity who I would parade around giving speeches to motivate people into loyalty)

My cabinet would be a dominated by educated elites, Ph.Ds in their field and my empire would be heavily decentralized governing districts: the goal would be a system which is constantly scaling up and integrating lessons learned at the local level. It would be promotion through peer-reviewed meritocracy with two tribunes; a capital tribune and a labor tribune, one elected through popular vote, the other only eligible to property holders, who hold the power to veto legislation.

Wife: I'm not a NEET with a waifu complex so I would leave this position vacant so that I could use it to secure a political alliance at a later date.

Harem: I'm not paying for a warehouse full of women to sit around waiting for me to fuck them. What I will do, however, is exercise the right of the first night, deflowering a different woman every night. Any woman who gets pregnant will be granted a state pension, and the bastard given good schooling and allowed to lead a normal life.

>>3107880
>Educated elite pH.d and no harem
This is a terrible society

>>3107894
Harems are a waste of money. I'd turn it into a huge social honor for a woman to have "dear leader" inside of them.

And the educated elite's first order of business will be the large scale repression of idiot culture. My empire would not be a place where people are proud of being slack jawed imbeciles.

>>3107923
There's more to intelligence than a college degree. You'll be limiting your pool of options to a bunch of autists essentially.

>>3107939
And yet, the military requires its officers to have a college degree and will even pay for a candidate to go to college just so they can put them in OCS.

Bubba Jo the middle manager at a midwestern corporation which manufactures and sells metering electronics to utility companies will be summoned when dear leader has a question about meters. When he has a question about international affairs he'll turn to the guy who studies international affairs as his full time job.

>>3107958
And mustangs make much better officers than the ones straight out of college. Education can be a good supplement, but relying on that is pointless. Experience is what is necessary
