SPQR scrolled on everything in sight

That's amazing, I'd love to go one day

I'm lucky my parents brought me along to Italy back in the day

Saw Venice, Florence, Rome, Sorrento

It's really something else

I hate American cities now

Yeah, most inner cities are downright depressing nowadays. You know Detroit used to be called the Paris of America?

Which sounds absolutely retarded now

Almost sounds accurate tbh

given the state of Paris nowadays, lol

Yea, Paris is the Detroit of Europe now. 💩

rofl

Too true

Bismark, did nothing wrong? OR cucked the Kaiser a bit too much and lead to junker repression in the traditional power structures of the country?

@Attrition in the desert What do you know about the Congolese war? I was watching some video of it, and the squad tactics seem very undisciplined. I know most of the Europeans were mercenaries from Belgium and England. Do you know anything about the minimum requirements for a contract? It seems like they weren't too picky

From what I understand the European involvement was more of a loose coalition of private MCmercs under some African militia colonel. Kind of like the French foreign legion but with the added baggage of Belgium's history of doing nothing wrong in the congo

Lel

Right, I knew that, it's just that those mercs seemed especially incompetent

Mercenaries are usually a pretty retarded solution anyway

Clearly the best solution to insurrection in central Africa is a few good men in short shorts

That being said, King Leopold had a literal gold mine in the Congo for a while, if I was betting on any African country to rise up with the benefits of colonialism in the 19th century it would have been them or perhaps the ivory coast

I think Jarod Taylor actually talks about it in some interview I've seen

The Congo is a miserable place to live. After the benefits of European medicine were cut, it's no surprise to me that the people living there went back to barely being able to survive

It's truly staggering that a people living next to Arabs that had invented the wheel, could not even *adopt* the wheel until civilization was forced upon them

I have a short book on the history of Zanzibar that you might like

Nice, what's the title? I've been getting into the history of the Berber people lately and the bastion of civilization that north Africa used to be

I still maintain that St.Augustine was white

The History and Economics of Zanzibar or some shit

You ever hear about Mansa musa?

Berbers are a very interesting people

Yeah they are pretty white

I think they are descended from the original Phoenician peoples that mingled with the romans and just identify as "arab" on government surveys.

@Attrition in the desert what's Mansa Musa?

@Attrition in the desert @Louis Loire - NY that girl looks extremely African in that portrait

@John O - He was an African King that went on Hajj through parts of Europe and dispersed huge amounts of gold (Of which he had no idea the value of) and crashed the economy of several states along the way lol

She is African berbers are without a doubt Africans they were in northern Africa before most Arabs and blacks @John O -

They are white Genetics wise no other way to get blue eyes/ blond hair besides serious mutation

@Attrition in the desert Oh yeah, I've heard of him, but only throught the context of pro-white media. "The richest man in the history of the world was African".

I like how they will say "We can't actually measure his wealth" and "He was the richest man of all time" in the same paragraph.

What was your train of thought yesterday, though? Why did you bring him up?
