3000000D chess
reminder
Have you seen super troopers 2? @Solipsistic Vinarchy
nope
Watch it if you want to get pissed off, it's about the US gaining land in Canada and these retarded US troopers have to police the area
guns germs and steel ;^)
Fair enough.
I was looking for a moderate indepth knowledge on world history and a high indepth knowledge on US and Euro history.
Depends on what you want really for roman history I like a mix of original sources and modern writers
Plutarchs roman lives gives you a feel for republican rome
Adrian goldsworthy does a range of good books on the subject
^ good starter books
Medieval history I recently read Dan Jones the plantagenents
This covers the Crusades up to just before the war of the roses from the English monarchies perspective
gives you good historical context for English saints
I'll start with these books, thanks @Georges_Cross and @Callaghan.
@Deleted User 33b75db0 don't actually read guns germs and steel, it was a meme lol
Oh, lmao. I didn't know.
his argument is that the reasons civillizations and peoples have come to be the way they are, is purely, or at least 90%, due to their environment
iirc
Didn't know that he thought that, glad I didn't waste my time reading it.
smh tbh
