all about fuckers being thrown out windows

2020-02-28 07:08:16 UTC  

🤷

2020-02-28 07:08:30 UTC  

the Hellenic and Roman eras are very interesting

2020-02-28 07:08:38 UTC  

especially the late republic

2020-02-28 07:09:02 UTC  

it's crazy that Spartacus, Cleopatra, Caesar were all contemparies

2020-02-28 07:09:08 UTC  

i know japan

2020-02-28 07:09:10 UTC

2020-02-28 07:09:25 UTC  

best Japanese era?

2020-02-28 07:09:26 UTC  

everything pre coming here is being over written

2020-02-28 07:10:01 UTC  

I think the Tokugawas were interesting

2020-02-28 07:10:12 UTC  

Japanese is at least better than Chinese history

2020-02-28 07:10:36 UTC  

I find it laughable that the Art of War was written by a Chinese man, they suck at war

2020-02-28 07:11:35 UTC  

got their asses kicked by the Mongols, the Japanese, the Vietnamese, the Indians, the British, the Xiongnu

2020-02-28 07:11:52 UTC  

SEngoku

2020-02-28 07:11:53 UTC  

era

2020-02-28 07:11:59 UTC  

is the one a lot of people like to talk about

2020-02-28 07:12:12 UTC  

so ya Tokugawa

2020-02-28 07:12:39 UTC  

@Lord Zedd and the bats 🦇

2020-02-28 07:13:05 UTC  

yeah the Bats are really going to town on them

2020-02-28 07:13:15 UTC  

well one specific bat

2020-02-28 07:13:31 UTC  

they did wage that war on sparrows or something though

2020-02-28 07:13:36 UTC  

then lost against bugs

2020-02-28 07:13:41 UTC  

there's a thought we could lose a big chunk of the world's population because of a single bat bite

2020-02-28 07:14:54 UTC  

gonna find shit on japanese history

2020-02-28 07:14:56 UTC

2020-02-28 07:15:28 UTC

2020-02-28 07:15:49 UTC

2020-02-28 07:15:53 UTC

2020-02-28 07:16:47 UTC  

don't sleep on European history there's some good stuff there
Caesar in particular had quite the life

2020-02-28 07:17:55 UTC  

peak Roman politics, genius warfare, sex scandals and a bloody end

2020-02-28 07:18:23 UTC  

One day

2020-02-28 07:18:35 UTC  

Caesar was a progressive by that day's standard

2020-02-28 07:19:59 UTC  

and a populist

2020-02-28 07:21:06 UTC  

was he not an authoritarian coont

2020-02-28 07:21:17 UTC  

the words Kaiser and Csar come from his name, he gave us the calender

2020-02-28 07:21:20 UTC  

yeah

2020-02-28 07:21:30 UTC  

but not a complete despot

2020-02-28 07:21:58 UTC  

he was a very big fan of Caesar and incredibly ambitious

2020-02-28 07:22:49 UTC  

he was crazy smart and was great at handling things, but as soon as his attention went somewhere else things turned to shit

2020-02-28 07:24:35 UTC  

he wiped out a considerable portion of the Gallic population
