But you guys don’t really have anything to combat him

It just provided income for families

@Asdrubal Yes, those were notable, but Sub Saharan Africa didn’t do much for the world as let’s say the Europeans or Asians

Still had Interesting enough history though

The Haya people had some of the most advanced metallurgy

Same with the Kongo

The Kongo and Haya are an exception

So were the English

The Bunyoro had a great deal of medical knowledge

yes yes, they did

Performing surgery better than Europe

*and this is coming from accounts of a missionary in Africa*

Not just artifacts

The Dogon had better understanding of astronomy

I think the most interesting history would probably be European

Yes, I do have a biasy towards Europe

Middle eastern history is neat too

Northern European history is boring tbh

But, Europe was filled with multiple advances influenced by the outside and inside

Northern European is basically just summarized by

I'm more biased towards far east and middle east stuff

I enjoy more modern (renaissance and later) European

But before then Europe was a shithole

Last Neanderthals, Vikings, That Scandinavian Union, then dissolution and Denmark controlling everyone, Swedish independence, Swedish Empire, End of the Danish Norwegian Union, Sweden Norway after the Napoleonic.

Then WW2

One of the worse places of the world before the late 1400s

It depended on the place

Others faired better, others had the bad side

Yeah

Europe was generally getting crowded at that point

And not only had it suffered a plague

It was suffering other things

I think when the 1400s swung around, then things became better

But it was very feudal and oppressive compared to, say, Arabia

Things improved for Europe in the years of colonization

Yeah after feudalism gave way to colonialism and freer markets

Arabia was also oppressive

But more organised

But not nearly as bad for the commoner

Europe was a mess

Even after the 1400s Turks had better system for quite a while

The biggest mistake of the Turks was treating Christians as second class

And overestimating its power in ending Austria

Turks treated Christians better than the Christians treated Muslims

And Austria was a supply issue as much as anything

Turks wanted to play nice with their occupied lands

So they didn’t have to deal with 100 rebellions

And that worked largely

Eh, for a while

They got troops and taxes from their Christian subjects

Ottoman power diminished in the 1600s

Once absolutism came around

And the idea of using all resources of the state

And then the Ottomans were a complete joke in the 1700-1900s

Turkish had way too much autonomy from 1600 to late 19. Century

Then it was too little too late

Industrialization was in full swing

I’m Romanian

And a second wave of colonialism was sweeping Europe

I generally am glad that the Ottomans couldn’t handle the Balkans anymore

You're respectful about it though

And don't call Turkish roaches

Only if I am to mock id call Turks “Turkroaches”

Only as a joke

Good

Tbh pre columbian societies and Africa are some of my bigger interests when it comes to ancient history

A little of bit India

I

@Riley why

@Deleted User natsoc

thats why

lol

@Riley I'm not even natsoc

More so fas5

Fascist

"im not a natsoc"

pussy

fascism is gay

"lol everything that makes me uncomfortable should be ban"

That's just not right on any level

if anything its the opposite

Degeneracy is comfortable.

sorry, ive gotten so many conflicting definitions of fascism that its hard to keep up

I'd love to hear them

the whole thing is ambiguous

im about to go to class so maybe later

Not really

The problem is the liberal left and right as well as the alt-lite definitions

If you pay attention to the actual definiton of fascism from actual fascists you might get a much more clear message

For the liberals, they just slander eachother with the term, the left liberals point out that fascism is nationalistic to demonize the right, and the right use the collective nature of it to demonize the left with the term.

None of them have any understanding of actual fascist belief.

Meanwhile IOM announces that it's begun flying in """refugees""" from Ethiopia seen carrying duty free bags

Imagine hating refugees

But not caring about climate change
