A reminder that Spartan superiority was due to their Nordic Dorian genes

http://www.unz.com/article/what-race-were-the-greeks-and-romans/

>the seventh century BC Spartan poet Alcman, praised the beauty of Spartan female athletes, with their “golden hair” and “violet eyes.” He also wrote of Spartan women with “silver eyes,” meaning light gray.
>It was the Dorians, the last Greek invaders, who ended Achaean rule and probably provoked a mass migration of Aeolian and Ionian Hellenes — no doubt including Homer’s ancestors — across the Aegean Sea to the coast of Asia Minor. The Dorians who settled in the fertile valley of the Eurotas in the southern Peloponnesus were the direct ancestors of the Spartans of the classical age, and they claimed to be the only pure Dorians.
>“The national type of the invader remained purest in Sparta. The Dorian race gave Pindar his ideal of the fair-haired warrior of proud descent, which he used to describe not only the Homeric Menelaus, but the greatest Greek hero, Achilles, and in fact all the ‘fair-haired Danaeans’ [another name for the Achaeans who fought at Troy] of the heroic age” (Paideia: The Ideals of Greek Culture, 1939).

>Thus, classical Greece was a fusion, both cultural and racial, of these two types of whites. Some city-states, such as Thebes and Sparta, were predominantly Nordic. Others, such as Athens, were predominantly Mediterranean, and still others were mixtures of the two.

tl;dr Dorians = Spartans = Master Race

>It is said that the condition is a mutation of the genes, which manifests itself in the fact that the eyes change color, from blue to purple, within the first six months after birth. The afflicted individuals’ eyesight is said not to be compromised, even as the color of the eyes deepen to a darker shade of purple during puberty.
>Other features of this disorder allegedly include the skin’s immunity to tanning or burning, despite its extra-ordinarily pale hue.
> It is also said that apart from the hair on the head, eyelashes, brows, and in the nostrils, no other body-hair exists on those afflicted with this disorder.
>In addition to this, those afflicted with Purple Eyes (Alexandria’s Genesis) tend to be centurions, with some alleged to live to the ripe old age of 150 years old. Aging stops at around age 50, and those afflicted look no older even as they pass 100 years of age.
>Inter-racial individuals can be afflicted with this mutation, but it’s mostly evident with Caucasians. They rarely fall ill, and are immune to most diseases. Neither do they gain excessive weight, or produce much waste; regardless of how much they eat. And women maintain desirable figures throughout their lifetime. Also women with this disorder do not menstruate, though they are 100% fertile.

Literally Aryan Master Race shit right here. Apparently an actress, Elizabeth Taylor, had purple eyes and this was before coloured contacts so they must have been legit.

Not true. The pagan, i.e non-jew, tradition was to appoint the strongest among the tribe to lead. This was determined by a series of trials similar (not by coincidence) to the Olympics of Ancient Greece

This was done on a yearly basis to keep only the strongest/wisest/most talented on the seat of the throne. Women did the same via beauty contests and the like, to select for the most feminine. The King and Queen were 'married' only by tradition and could choose whether or not to have further relations than that.

It is a practice which accords with, and venerates natural principles. The exact opposite of what we have now.

>tfw voting to stay in Europe for fear that leaving Europe will send Britain into a fascist spiral resulting in my death in some camp due to being half black

Nah, not really though. I just want us to make the EU fucking work before we quit it. I feel as if we're moving into an age of super-states and there won't be much resisting Chinese or American meddling if we don't have the EU at our back.

Europeans are like the Mongols man, we stick together and get the Union working proper(fiscally first then politically) and we'll turn the 'Chinese century' into a repeat of the 18th and 19th centuries.

>They assign to the Helots every shameful task leading to disgrace. For they ordained that each one of them must wear a dogskin cap (kυνῆ / kunễ) and wrap himself in skins (διφθέρα / diphthéra) and receive a stipulated number of beatings every year regardless of any wrongdoing, so that they would never forget they were slaves. Moreover, if any exceeded the vigour proper to a slave's condition, they made death the penalty; and they allotted a punishment to those controlling them if they failed.[18]
>Other modern scholars consider then, "although the details may be fanciful, [Myron's evidence] does reflect accurately the general Spartiate attitude towards helots".[17] It has also been stressed that contempt alone could hardly explain the organized murder of Helots mentioned by several ancient sources.[30] According to Aristotle, the ephors annually declared war on the Helots, thereby allowing Spartans to kill them without fear of religious pollution.[31] This task was apparently given to the kryptes, graduates of the difficult agoge who took part in the crypteia.[32] This lack of judicial protection is confirmed by Myron of Priene, who mentions killing as a standard mode of regulation of the Helot population. Thus, 2,000 helots were massacred in 425 BC in a carefully staged event:
>"The helots were invited by a proclamation to pick out those of their number who claimed to have most distinguished themselves against the enemy, in order that they might receive their freedom; the object being to test them, as it was thought that the first to claim their freedom would be the most high spirited and the most apt to rebel. As many as two thousand were selected accordingly, who crowned themselves and went round the temples, rejoicing in their new freedom. The Spartans, however, soon afterwards did away with them, and no one ever knew how each of them perished."
The Helots were treated like dogshit, mate.

No, all countries still have their Kings and Lords and shite. They just have little power bar land and wealth.

Only the UK, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Monaco, Liechtenstein, Andorra still have hereditary heads of states who hold little power. Bar Liechtenstein's case where they do still hold power but they are so tiny nobody cares. The nobles of other countries still exist, they just aren't in the power structure anymore.

China has been a centrally controlled union of multiple cultures for thousands of years. Many of them call themselves "Han Chinese" but if you look at the differences in dialect and cultural nuance, you'd agree their 'globalisation' of sorts has failed miserably at eroding cultures.

But no, I'm not for a world union unless we have to fight some alien invasion. The only field I wholly agree with globalisation is the sciences. Great things have been achieved by strong nations allowing their scientists to work together.

I want Europe to stress European nationalism and a sense of Europe as a cohesive region that rose to power as a region because of limited but tenacious competition between its various states and ethnic groups.

I want a return to pragmatism over moralism and, by that same reasoning, I want above all else for white people to shed their white guilt.

No one in their right mind believes the current approach to immigration and the migrant crisis has been clever. Even SJW's agree(when said by a minority, I've literally heard them scream down white friends of mine saying the exact same point) that what we're doing is more damaging for everyone involved than it is beneficial. It's only benefits are stroking the moral egos of some western left wingers.

>The Cultural Revolution, formally the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, was a sociopolitical movement that took place in the People's Republic of China from 1966 until 1976. Set into motion by Mao Zedong, then Chairman of the Communist Party of China, its stated goal was to preserve 'true' Communist ideology in the country by purging remnants of capitalist and traditional elements from Chinese society, and to re-impose Maoist thought as the dominant ideology within the Party.
Communism is inherently anti-culture.

I've played a couple games as nat france, you'll not be able to defeat france alone, try to ally with spain and use their nice defendable border and try to explot them enough to create small pockets without drawing their whole army south, germany will annex the northern half of your country in most cases, so just try to be as exploitative as possible, launch naval invasions to capture territory if germany looks like it has broken through
get a couple of mot inf, they are worth their weight in gold.
If you can unify Italy wihout drawing in CoF that would be even better, also try shipping in units from india and canda and your other allies to allow you some initiative

Seriously though, I have no idea why they did it, I don't know whether they just didn't understand the appeal of CK2, are trying to relaunch it as something entirely new or just added these mechanics for their in house games where they all play as kings (rather than dukes and counts that players start as)

The reviews on steam are bad, the forums are angry and even /r/paradoxplaza is highly critical, these places are usually 100% in support of paradox so to hear even one dissenting voice, let alone the dissenters being in the majoroty is highly irregular.

No, rather than be the normal OTL Rhinelanders, the Rhenish culture there appears once France has ruled the place for 15-20 years, and is basically a slow mix of German and French. If you don't like it, just choose option A and slowly assimilate your minorities.

All this says is that the frogs marches in and enacted special reforms, it does not say that they favoured these reforms or were willing to abandon their ancestry over it.

Furthermore, your source ends with:
>Prussia itself had been forced to adopt the superior French State as a model and to carry out reforms.
Making it seem like biased trash.
>>
>>135923350
>And so it came to pass that the Prussians, even after their incorporation of the Rhineland and Westphalia in 1815, were regarded by the Rhinelanders with more suspicion, due to their Francophile feeling, than by the Westphalians.


Either way, Its mainly there for gameplay, rather then being purely historical. I can't keep them as full on North Germans, otherwise none of them will assimilate due to the German Empire cores that cover the area.

It really is, and paradox fucked up the one thing I really wanted, which was a more versatile "assimilate = yes" command

>>135924197
No, since initially the event adds Rhenish as accepted for France, so assimilation is unnecessary. Later the French language schooling decision changes the Rhineland's primary culture to French with Rhenish as accepted, so you can assimilate them similarly to the Bretons or Walloons, but the Rhine cores stay for if another power wanted to dismantle France.

I might add province-specific hardcore assimilation modifiers in a later version, but for now France just slowly Hybridizes and then absorbs the Rhine pops.

As a bonus, here's a pic of France's now smooth core borders if you go for all possible European cores aside from Catalonia

It's basically the closest any nation in modern times had come close to conquering the world. Napoleon being defeated on the seas by England and on land in Russia were both considered miracles that narrowly averted the whole world being French.

Yeah, the infamy can be costly, but it's extremely satisfying when you accomplish it.

>>135926237
I don't actually know, I'll have to look it up

>>135926245
Yeah, but since they got so far and then failed, it gives France some other useful goals to go for, rather than "Form Grossgermany, blob east".

I guess a better way to explain it is that France didn't fuck up too badly, letting you recover.

For example, look at France's colonies in the Americas. Spain fucked up so spectacularly that they have no hope of recovering their lost glory, and while England can, they can't go for the imperial federation and the USA can't realistically be subjugated by the UK.

France is cool since they were bad enough at colonialism to have a few colonies, and can both realistically reclaim what they lost (Quebec and Haiti), without being too large to have to dominion-ize everything later on.

>>
>>135931508
Sure, but in EU4 it's entirely based on dice more than anything else. It seems like 1 in 3 battles ends up in an upset when in reality they were much rarer.
You have up to -2 for terrain penalty when attacking and up to -2 for river/strait crossing or a landing (Both of these penalties can be circumvented by a middling maneuver general).
Your general can provided a few points during certain phases, but it only happens sometimes and there is no penalty for a leaderless army.
What you end up with is 2 people rolling dice and whoever gets the highest rolls wins.

Even fucking Victoria 2 has a better system. Upsets still happen but they're much more rare.
Unless you vastly outnumber someone or their army composition is irregulars and engineers you will get dumpstered by gas attack.
The dig in bonus makes a successful defense a much more likely outcome.
Even a terrible leader is often better than no leader at all.
And the experience system makes you more likely to roll a better number so a ragtag group of veterans can still overcome the odds when the numbers are stacked against them.

how to industrialize properly as Greece in HPM? Any tips?

>>135931993
That's just not true. You can pretty reliably predict the outcome of an EU battle if you know all the factors. The difference in morale is probably the most important one, but in the first few years it's generals that matter most, then they become second or third depending on how big the differential in army tactics and morale becomes.

Early game, I could mabye go along with what you're saying. But after tech 8 or so not so much. And that's not including composition, outnumbering with cavalry, and unit pips which are an odd curve which can fuck with some people (western units are mediocre until later on so sometimes you get dunked unexpectedly by someone who seems worse but their units have 3 pips more than yours)

Anthropology graduate student here, been on digs in Katakonia and the Tagus Mountains.

Spartans were Celtic/Scythian/Dorian admixtures if we're to believe their late adoption of linear B, frequency of red/blonde hair and the martial culture parallels to the Franco-Galatian-Celt continuum. They got the best of all three from that, though.

The Tagus is a weird place, Sparta moreso. There's evidence of constant invasion and assimilation there, because pre-classical Greek invaders usually hit the range and said essentially "fuck it, the land's good, we'll settle here" in contrast to any other area south of Macedonia.

As you might recall from the dev diary on Policies and Edicts, your initial choice of Empire ethos will heavily affect what you can and cannot do and what your initial population will tend to frown upon. Three of the more interesting Policies concern Migration, Slavery and Purges.

Now, unless you are playing an Individualist Empire, you can also enact a Policy to allow the forcible resettlement of Pops. This will allow you to simply move Pops between planets; at a hefty cost, of course. There is one more way to control migration; fanatic Xenophobes can enact planetary Edicts to strongly discourage xeno immigration. In the same way, fanatic Xenophiles can strongly encourage it...

>>135954714
So that’s basically how migration works. Next, we have Slavery. Like the migration Policies, you have three options; allow it for all Pops, xenos only, or not at all. Fanatic Individualists cannot play with Slavery unless the founding species has the Decadent trait, and only Xenophobes can limit Slavery to aliens. Why use slaves? Well, reprehensible as it is, enslaved Pops are harder workers (but poorer scientists.) Of course, slaves can - and will - join Slave Factions, although Collectivist slaves are more accepting of their lot, for the Greater Good.

Finally, let’s talk Purges, which is simply a way of getting rid of troublesome Pops… permanently. Naturally, this is something that both your own population and other Empires tend to react to rather emphatically.

Because you read it.
Or because you got rekt once, because your ships only noticed the incoming enemy missiles when they were a few thousands kilometers from your ships, and then you looked at making a sensor with a resolution and strength capable of seeing missiles from farther away.
Half the shit I design still ends up needing a "Mk II" within a few months of deployment anyway.

Is it because of the goods that can't be produced yet? Or is there something more subtle? I mean, there's lot of overproduction going on at all times, it can't just be that there's 100 more grain than planned.

Stellaris has six resources

Three of them are science, and you don't accumulate them, they just tick you towards whatever tech you've selected of that type

The other three are energy (money and upkeep), minerals (used for building things), and influence (used for diplomacy, like making alliances and such)

Your science output is based on your pops and buildings and shit

>>135959834
>it will have the regular EU4 (and HoI4 I guess) thing where you have to decide between using your mana to quell a rebellion or building something or whatever

I doubt it

Science is separate from everything else, unlike civ, and money (credits) is separate from what you use for buildings (minerals)

No, but I just don't see how it could work with the way resources are delimited

In EU4, you have three resources, generated mainly by your leader, that are used for tech, development, and everything else

In Stellaris you have 6 resources, three of which are purely for research, generated mainly by your pops and buildings, and clearly delineated for different functions (cash/upkeep, up-front construction, diplomatic actions)

I could imagine influence being used for slowing rebellion like EU4 military points, and money used for everything, but I don't know what outside of that could happen

Ergo, I doubt it

Well, things took more time than I expected.
The slave question became like this: Slaves are 25% more efficient than normal farmers/labourers. However, RGO spread techs - Tractors, Mechanized Mining and Distribution Channels and Electricity - will never spread to slave states. This is meant to represent the unwillingness to adopt new technologies in plantations, the unwillingness of slaves to learn and the unwillingness of slave owners of putting expensive machinery in the hands of slaves that usually fucked them up on purpose.

So slaves will be more productive, but less efficient. They will still benefit greatly from techs, which is something I can't avoid (and some of them make sense, like Cotton Gin), but in the long run abolishing slavery will be the most profitable option. That's only for literate countries though. For countries that don't invest heavily in literacy or industry/commerce techs, then keeping slavery as long as you can will be the most profitable choice.

There's still the technology problem, like mechanized fishing boats helping slaves produce more fish. I might add a malus for the chance of discovery of these techs while you have slavery allowed but that will negatively affect both slaves and free workers.

Finally, to reduce event spam from the RGO spread events even more, they will now fire in other states a number of times according to the size of the nation. So a nation with less than 10 states will only have, let's say tractors, in one state with the event.
A nation with 10+ states will have tractors in the state that spawned the event and a 50% chance of having tractors in another state that has 70% or more literacy and it isn't a colonial, overseas states or a state that has serfs or slaves. A nation with 20+ states will have 2, 50% chances of 2 different states that fit the above criteria have tractors and so on until a nation with 40+ states will have the state that spawned the event plus 4 chances of other states getting tractors too.

This is meant to keep the random chance of tractors happening faster in places while still respecting the criteria for it to spawn and also solving the event spam in large countries.
Hopefully this will mean that the event spam is severely reduced.

On another note, serf states will also have the tech spread slower.

Anyway, that's about it. I just need to finish the RGO spread events changes.

It's a problem with localization of the variables in the command. Tried to fix it without success so I suspect the stuff is missing from the binaries. It will move the issue, it works, but it doesn't show you what it will do.

I can't do much about the UK turning Canada, South Africa and Australia in states.

If the UK AI has the points to turn them in states, well, I can't do much about it.

I will get back and finish events in SA/NA at some point, what I did now was just work to fix the borders I changed.

A useless source that is an opinion without numbers is useless.

Slaves were never more productive than free men unless you were literally working them to death.

They were arguable more efficient, but this efficiency comes from less daily/life needs, not increased production. Assuming that you consider efficiency to be Value of Production - Cost of needs.

Efficiency: the ratio of the work done or energy developed by a machine, engine, etc., to the energy supplied to it, usually expressed as a percentage.

Productivity: the state or quality of producing something, especially crops.

wew lad, you realize he isn't even saying what you think they say?

Slaves don't produce more, they return on investment faster because they cost less to hire.

That's the whole point of slavery. You produce slightly less output but since you have far less cost per worker your overall profitability goes up.

You're judging an academic source from a snapshot of it. that's fucking stupid. You don't do that, because they may have specified a specific way that they intend to use the term earlier on.

I don't get it what you guys are trying to argue.

A slave is obviously more productive than a free farmer since the farmer has the freedom to exercise his flawed willpower to take a break now and then, to do it more slowly so he conserves energy (a natural instinct), and to simply stop if he doesn't feel too good. The slave, however, is forced to do it efficiently and has people around him who enforce it as harshly as possible. Tilling land requires neither intelligence nor skill, so you can't use the "he's uneducated!" argument either.

So how the fuck do you come up with the idea that free farmers have more output than slaves?

>>135966650
The fact that free farmers are motivated both by survival (a bad harvest doesn't make a slave starve, their master has to feed them no matter what) and by pride and having a personal stake in their venture while a slave is only motivated by the lash and fear of punishment. Also that slaves are resentful and would frequently try to sabotage the operation whenever they felt they could get away with it.

But the tech system alone makes it a completely different game. In other 4x games production and growth both simply equal science.

These things being decoupled in stellaris changes literally everything.

>>135966795
This is right.

>>135963925
This source is mixing up productivity and efficiency. Slaves were more efficient than Free men. Slaves were less Productive than free men. Read the way they are defined

>Louis Manigault once hired whites to do the job and the wage bill ruined him.

The PRODUCITIVTY didn't go down hiring whites, the EFFICIENCY (from increased costs) dropped dramatically.

>But it may simultaneously have been less "efficient" (if one measures "efficiency" by comparing achievements of slaves with free men are agricultural tasks).
This is not how we measure EFFICIENCY. This is how we measure PRODUCTIVITY, i.e. the total output of the equation.

Productivity = Total Output
Efficiency = Value of Total Output - Value require to create that Output (i.e. wages for free men and basic food and housing for slaves, representing as the needs of each pop).

HPM's source mixes the two up.

It doesn't say that OUTPUT goes up with slaves, it only says that OUTPUT/INPUT is better.
>>
>>135967257
You do realise there's many different forms of efficiency in economics right and that most can't be summed up in a simple one line response.

>>135967296
But it's true, in all 4x games everything you do is basically just done to boost your research.
>>
Question:

Which produces more output from the same amount of input and available land:

>1) A farm of 1,000 slaves
>2) A farm of 1,000 farmers

Why 1); Why 2)

Total output was higher per slave. As some authors calculated, a slave in 35 minutes would have as much output as a free farmer in an hour.


Honestly, this all moot. Just bring your sources on the matter and I will change it. What I see doesn't support your position.

>>135967553
The source HPM states makes a distinction between efficiency and productivity. Which is fine, taking Productivity as total output, but then they mix it up.

No shit, a slave in 35 mins makes the plantation owner as much as a free man in an hour. That's because you don't have to pay the slave.

It turns out that the cost of labor is pretty high for free people.

You do understand the concept of sharecropping and tenant farming, right?

When a free man worked, he literally wasn't working for the farmer's crops 50% of the time. He was working on his own crops.

Actually, it is now in HPM, slaves will produce less than free workers when technology is taken into account.

RGO output modifiers will only be applied in free states, meaning that eventually, as it happen in the USA, free farmers will overtake slaves in productivity.

Slavery will be a good alternative for uneducated or technologically backward countries, or while technology doesn't catch up, but it will eventually become less productive than free labor in technologically advanced countries.

The only thing I may change is the current value. Currently a slave is 25% more productive than a free labor - no techs taken into account. Sources say that slaves were up to 48% more productive, but that value would mean techs wouldn't make free, technologically advanced parts of a nation/nations more productive than plantations. Couple that with the fact that I can't make the distinction in all techs between free farmers and slaves it creates a problem, so I can't have it as high as 48%.
