I remember writing a letter to my friend while he was in bootcamp, detailing the fucking battle of cannae to him lmao

2018-08-27 03:58:43 UTC  

It happened on my birthday so you can say I’m destined to revamp the Roman Empire 🤷🏼‍♂️

2018-08-27 03:58:56 UTC  

I support this notion

2018-08-27 03:59:05 UTC  

Gimme a few days

2018-08-27 03:59:17 UTC  

Another 1.5 thousand years we go!

2018-08-27 03:59:49 UTC

I was always into studying the great Empires of sub Saharan Africa

2018-08-27 04:01:35 UTC  

I hardly know any Russian history asidefrom like. The October revolution, ww2, and like, some tsar who tried to model Russia after europe

2018-08-27 04:02:36 UTC  

I forget his name, didn't he like travel Europe in disguise to spy on their shiprites?

2018-08-27 04:02:39 UTC  

yeah him

2018-08-27 04:03:44 UTC  

Yeah Russia history is a little intimidating to me lol

2018-08-27 04:03:46 UTC  

So much

2018-08-27 04:03:51 UTC  

oh and the only other thing I know about Russia is

2018-08-27 04:03:53 UTC  

MONGOLS

2018-08-27 04:05:13 UTC  

I don't know how you can even begin to count all the different ethnic groups in Russia and their history. It's almost overwhelming

2018-08-27 04:05:35 UTC  

It is overwhelming actually

2018-08-27 04:06:02 UTC  

Isn't it just whites, and happas

2018-08-27 04:06:03 UTC  

lol

2018-08-27 04:06:19 UTC  

throw in Chechens maybe?

2018-08-27 04:07:06 UTC  

@Deleted User I always felt like there were a gazillion different groups in the south of Russia

2018-08-27 04:07:17 UTC  

/ Soviet Union

2018-08-27 04:07:43 UTC  

Cossacks?

2018-08-27 04:09:41 UTC  

It's really easy to see the Asiatic influence in some Russians

2018-08-27 04:10:37 UTC  

Hmm. That's interesting. Weren't the Cossacks well known as cavalrymen?

2018-08-27 04:11:18 UTC  

Do you have any recommendations on a more general Russian history book? I have a gift card to Barnes and Noble I need to use

2018-08-27 04:12:20 UTC  

@Doc34 Yes

2018-08-27 04:12:28 UTC  

Misha is still a monster

2018-08-27 04:12:50 UTC  

Soviet mystery meat. lmfao

2018-08-27 04:13:41 UTC  

Thanks

2018-08-27 04:15:44 UTC  

Okay. I really have no experience with Russian history aside from a few youtube videos so this will all be new to me

2018-08-27 04:18:38 UTC  

it's good, still listening to it

2018-08-27 04:19:59 UTC  

Where can I this lol. Is it on youtube

2018-08-27 04:21:46 UTC  

That's super cool. I remember I started getting into them after seeing a bunch of amazing photos of Cossack Cavalrymen in their full uniforms posing during a reunion or something

2018-08-27 04:22:04 UTC  

Can anyone plug me to the slav server

2018-08-27 04:22:05 UTC  

I think they were veterans of the Crimean War

2018-08-27 04:27:08 UTC  

It’s definitely one I’m interested in seeing as it’s left out of a lot of western history courses I’ve taken

2018-08-27 04:28:04 UTC  

That seems to be a pattern in a lot of Russian Military history

2018-08-27 04:28:12 UTC  

At least from what I’ve seen
