i learned history in depth but only about my country and state

2019-09-08 10:15:51 UTC  

mainly**

2019-09-08 10:16:22 UTC  

mhm we had it kinda split in high school but before that we covered shit from mesopotamia in increasing level of detail ahha

2019-09-08 10:16:36 UTC  

i mean between mesopotamia and modern times

2019-09-08 10:16:44 UTC  

yeah i remember covering that

2019-09-08 10:17:12 UTC  

10x more mesopotamia than any other nation

2019-09-08 10:17:41 UTC  

hahah welll i cant really remember it all too well but the ancient times were always kinda focues on

2019-09-08 10:17:45 UTC  

focused*

2019-09-08 10:18:09 UTC  

it was the mesopotamia egypt and greece though perfectly hellenising 😉

2019-09-08 10:18:24 UTC  

we covered the world wars but left out all the other ones besides the civil and revolutionary

2019-09-08 10:19:00 UTC  

hehe american all 200 years of history 😛

2019-09-08 10:19:08 UTC  

yeah lol

2019-09-08 10:19:10 UTC  

can get into detail with that one

2019-09-08 10:19:31 UTC  

one thing i notice now thats somewhat amusing

2019-09-08 10:19:39 UTC  

is the notion of continuation

2019-09-08 10:19:40 UTC  

like

2019-09-08 10:19:59 UTC  

there was a time the country was aactually 13 separate princedoms that had completely different systems

2019-09-08 10:20:32 UTC  

but theres a sense of it still being the same country lol its all very artificial

2019-09-08 10:20:43 UTC  

as per the notion of nation being quite a new thing

2019-09-08 10:21:00 UTC  

relative to how much history came before that

2019-09-08 10:22:01 UTC  

yeah you know i think about that quite abit and it makes me worry about my nation but it is a great nation on paper imo its just very easy to fuck up

2019-09-08 10:22:26 UTC  

not much of a sense that you cant help but be of your nation? haha

2019-09-08 10:22:54 UTC  

its great here

2019-09-08 10:23:13 UTC  

Well, that's why the concept of state before country persisted for so long after the Revolution, only coming to an end in the wake of the Civil War.

2019-09-08 10:24:00 UTC  

Most of the Irish who fought on both sides hoped to put their training to use liberating Ireland from the British.

2019-09-08 10:38:19 UTC  

The only good age of empires was 2.
The only good age of wonders was 1.

2019-09-08 10:38:27 UTC  

i like they solved the issue with having too many armies on the map with making army flanking mechanics

2019-09-08 10:38:39 UTC  

uh

2019-09-08 10:38:46 UTC

2019-09-08 10:38:53 UTC

2019-09-08 10:38:59 UTC  

Is best

2019-09-08 10:39:00 UTC  

might check it out now

2019-09-08 10:39:17 UTC  

then i didnt know about 4X games at all and was expecting just a HoMM

2019-09-08 10:39:37 UTC  

and so didnt like it (was young)

2019-09-08 10:40:04 UTC  

None of that wizard tower bullshit from aow2.
Compared to HoMM, aow1 is a lot more warlords-esque.

2019-09-08 10:40:50 UTC  

Fewer units, quality over quantity.
Heroes that actually matter, level up and get great abilities.
