>It's a "Africa is an easy continent the only reason it didn't develop was because hurrdurr niggers" thread
Can we get some actual discussion on reasons why it didn't develop, especially in the Jungle? things like soil quality, how the weather affects the growing season, navigable trade routes, diseases, etc.
It didn't believe because it didn't develop. What is this magical concept of mandatory development that you have? Do you not realise that humanity existed for 250,000 years in the stone age? So Africans begin civilisation 2000 years after the Middle East and Europeans, why is this such a shock and horror when it took a quarter of a million years to reach that point to begin with.

Simple, they didn't actually need agriculture.
Because Africa is indeed an easy continent.

How does Islam make theologically sense when looking at the previous traditions it claims to be the conclusion of?
Isn't the whole core of the Judaic belief that a Messiah will come?
Islam just says that whole death on the cross didn't happen and even degredates him to being just another messenger.
So no Messiah.
What..?
>>1159261
Don't try to make sense of Islam, because there is none to be found within the Quran.
It is literally like saying
>Why do insane people think this way!?
...because they are fucking insane.
There is no rhyme, reason, or justification.

I never got how anything post-Judaic could be sold with the actual Jews still around.
>we totally are there which God's Scripture foretold us we would be!
>not at all.. plus you don't even read the original Hebrew, your translation is shitty and..
>fucking kikes!! I bet they even stab the hosts!
>>1159261
Jesus is the Messiah in Islam, and in Judaism the Messiah doesn't sacrifice himself in horrific fashion like the Christian narrative.

G
Trebizond, blood of Pontus and right of Romans
Tell me /his/, who was the best general in WWI?
Among all those idiots that couldn't understand modern war, who was the best?
>>1157203
There were plenty of good generals in WW1. It's a myth that they all sucked.
>>1157212
This.
Plenty of the generals enthusiastic to try new equipment, machines, and tactics.
It's just that none of the technology or innovations were adequate for stopping the massacre of trench warfare.

August von Mackensen
Hindenburg was solid
von der Goltz
von Eichhorn

How in the world does it's ruling class still manage to maintain unopposed? Why hasnt there been any major rebellion?
>>1154994
Because North Korea isn't as bad as westerners imagine.
It's pretty fucking bad, but not bad enough for the risk of revolting to be worth it.
>>1155001
>famines so severe that people resort to cannibalism
>1984 and beyond levels of state control and and monitoring of individual life
>literal slave labor camps
how can rebellion possibly lead to a worse situation?
The Peoples Very Happy. Comrade Kim Jung Un Is Glorious Leader And Beloved Of The Peoples.
Why is Africa so terrible? They have shitloads of resources that would make a nuked Europe close to normal again.

>Why is Africa so terrible
It's not, I've been to Rabat, Lagos and Windhoek, lovely places.
>>1154409
>Rabat
When people talk about Africa being shit they usually mean Sub-Saharan
>Lagos
Nice for tourists but an utter hellhole to live in. It's dense, crowded, and pretty much the only center of activity in a country too big for its own good.
>Windhoek
Namibia has a really low population density and is one of the few exceptions to the common situation in most of Africa.
>>1154390
Niggers.
Now seriously, I find it hard to think of any other explanation
Is it wrong to enjoy the aesthetics, optimism, and culture of the Atomic Age? Was it all just too idealistic to serve any good?
of course it is, you racist
>>1162619
no, and stop playing so much fallout
>>1162619
There is nothing wrong with enjoying the aesthetics and culture of the 50's.
Its only when you put it on a pedestal and say there was nuffin wrong going on during that time that I find objectionable.
