Probably why I got into this in the first place

Well, we have that much in common

History was my favorite topic in college

Which era are you most into?

lol

ANTIFA in Spain is a.lovely rabbit hole

niggers

Oh at the moment ....

I would like a return of the ideals of the US from 1800-1859.

I seem.to be drawn to antiquity

The 19th century is a bit of a blur for me, as embarassing as it is to admit

I like American History with a bit of Napoleonic and WW1 mixed in.

ARCEUS YOU FUCKING NIGGER

WHAT DID I DO

THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING TURNING POINTS IN HISTORY

OKAY, OKAY

tbh I'm curious now

I got time, give me a not-so-quick rundown

YOU HAVE THE RISE OF THE US AND THE BUILD UP OF WW1, NOT TO MENTION GERMANY FORMING IN THAT ERA!

YOU HAVE THE CIVIL FUCKING WAR

Lol I took some master course in totalitarian regimes of the 20th century... That was my red pill

THE OLD FUCKING WEST

That was 20 years ago....

AND THE SPANISH AMERICAN WAR

The Spanish Anorexia War

Yes great era....what always facinated me was the rise of nationalism during the 19th

The American system.of economics is a great example

Of product of that time

@DeusVolt Got any good reads on that time period? Preferably online ones.

I'm interested in the details now

Go to a library.

Start at Napoleon.

End at WW1.

That is my favorite time period I generally like to read into.

Well the big picture is you have the major 3 conquering powers figuring out the continent and how they'll split it up

France Spain and England

At the same time nationalism and industrial age

WW1 was 20th century and I'm pretty sure it was due to crazy-high tensions between the main powers in Europe at the time; one assassination lead to a chain reaction

Oh and a golden age in English productivity

No. WW1 was a gradual buildup of tensions that could be traced back to the 1850s.

So.many great thinkers came from. England in the 19th
