Yeah I should probably read some more into antiquity myself
Are Muslims a race ?
lol no wtf
@GermanEastAfrica I plan on getting some books on Alexander the Great, Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome
Even though Philosophy is interesting, I don't really have an interest in it
I am mainly into War History and Civilization History. But I will look into the Republic by Plato
Plato and Socrates are the Philosophers I might look into
Yeah metaphysics and all of that is definitely an interesting concept
I really want to look into their minds on government
I haven't looked too close into Socrates but Plato I think was definitely great, also Aristotle is pretty good
Aristotle sounds good also
Looking into Greek Gods is also kinda interesting
Yeah the myths are a bit intruiging
What was the one book about the guy who cames back from Troy and gets lost
Where I sort of drift from all of it is with the whole pederasty issue, which Plato absolutely condemned but people like Socrates I think practiced
Not sure.
Oh the Odyssey
I really dislike reading about WW2
Yeah it's completely overdone
Especially when it comes to NatSoc Germany
Nearly my entire Euro history course was from the Renaissance and forward
I have read one good German WW2 book and it was about the Germans on the East Front
I love reading about Greek and Roman history man
Vikings are kinda good
"The Dark Age" is one of the biggest lies to be perpetuated by academia really
Yep
I remember my fucking APUSH teacher back in the day said some nonsense about "the Europeans were just as savage as the Indians were a century before the renaissance", just idiocy.
well Britain was hurt pretty badly by the post-Roman invasions
other regions less so
those hurt the least badly were under Byzantine, and, later, Caliphate rule
very sad
Yes but it they exaggerate it so much and don't even bother to look at anything before the Renaissance period in any real depth
ah
" nowadays they're making AP World after 1400 AD only"
wtf
that doesn't make sense
That is a new development
I haven't heard about that damn
I missed USH 2 Honors by .6
