I'm a Slovene. I can't really say I know the origins since we don't have any written records from a certain point; there are several theories, though.
What I do know is that my ancestors settled here sometime between the sixth and seventh century.

I'll start. The muh heritage group I seem most interested in at the moment are the Malagasy.

They are believed to be the descendants of basically slaves/subordinates from Borneo most likely the Dayak a forest people with Papuan-like roots aboard Malay trading ships shortly after the Indic cultural infusion of SEA.

The Malay are believed to have had longstanding trade and contact with Africans along the Indian Ocean Littoral forming the linguistic and genetic basis of the Malagasy before they even...

It's called being a N.E.E.T.

But jokes aside you will never convince me that art is more valuable then a working sanitation system or modern medical knowledge.
I still respect your belief though. It's nice.

Immanual Wallerstein? World Systems Theory makes some sense but is a little bogus in its obvious opionnatedness. Still a decent systems-level explanation for phenomena like sweatshop labor.

No, Albrecht von Wallenstein. The Imperial general who fought on behalf of the Holy Roman Empire during the Thirty Years War.

There's no such thing as wrong and right in history.

Decentralize patchwork of lands that shouldn't have been a nation.

A minority landed aristocracy that placed their own self-interests over the nation and majority colored masses.

White flight aka many of the wealthy families fled back to Spain, thus ruining the economy.

The war of independence was destructive and unlike the American Revolution, destroyed much of the infrastructure, again further retarding Mexico's economy.

Shit tier leaders

Being in Latin America. Brazilian people are incredibly creative and know how to solve their problems, they are a great country (probably the best in Latin america), but they can't be better because of their surroundings.

at least Brazil didn´t balkanize like spanish south america and is actually a regional power

How accurate is that statue?

AoE and Horrible Histories books, later Rome TW and those atlas of history type books with maps of the world (prehistoric-through to present) and the states which existed at the time.

It was something that happened but it was hardly normal as it was looked down upon, it was only done when necessary. It should also be remembered that most Japanese people were peasants so this sort of thing was a tiny minority within a minority.

>>553551
Yeah I understand that it was only people who could afford arms (i.e. nobles) and they probably didn't usually have to fight. I just wanted to know if they were still usually trained anyway (possibly in marksmanship with bows as well) just in case.
Any other sources on this topic too?

>A few years ago George McGovern led the charge to take the power of nominating a candidate out of the hands of the democratic establishment and give more authority to the caucuses and primaries themselves
>McGovern was extraordinarily progressive and anti-war in addition to being in favor of a number of long held progressive ideas
>The democratic establishment, fearing that such an outsider and a radical would be unelectable, repeatedly tried to hamper his campaign, throwing their support behind Hubert Humphrey a career politician from a modest background
>During the campaign one democratic senator was quoted as saying " "The people don't know McGovern is for amnesty, abortion, and legalization of pot. Once middle America – Catholic middle America, in particular – finds this out, he's dead." The label stuck and McGovern became known as the candidate of "amnesty, abortion, and acid." It became Humphrey's battle cry to stop McGovern — especially in the Nebraska primary.
>Despite recieving little support from the establishment McGovern's grass roots campaigns won him the vital states of New York, Texas, and especially California, and got him the nomination
>After winning the nomination, now he had to wait for the establishment to pick a running mate for him. They settled on Thomas Eagleton

Is that Bailey jay

No, even your OP says it referred to celibacy only (which indeed has been an apostolic tradition, even for married men), not self castration. Also, Nicea I prohibited the practice of self castration

Castration does not involve penile tissue, emasculation is the cutting of "we wes"

You're fucked.

European history requires 3 languages other than english at archival / academic standard. I'm told that German is obligatory in the North American system.

You then need access to archival material that noone else is using which your potential eventual employers will be horny for. You are predicting this about 16 years out.

You then need 3 books. Your PhD is the first one. The second one gets you a tenure track position. The third one confirms your tenure.

You will...

I almost forgot.

You could teach secondary education and try to pump out a journal article every 2 years and drink yourself to death.

Is teaching secondary education a poor choice? From what I remember the high school curriculum was easy and straightforward. From the teachers that I have asked about the pay, they said that it's pretty decent and definitely survivable.
