This is related to history
Why does nearly every culture have a great flood myth? Is it because of the melting glaciers from the ice age, or something else? Is it possible some "Atlantis" type civilization existed, but was wiped out by the rise in sea levels considering most human settlements are near the coast.
>>284305
There are plenty of drowned cities
Because flooding happens in a lot ofplaces, dip shit.
>>284305
Because rivers and floods happen all the fucking time.
What do you know about Moroccan history?

Declared war on the Dutch republic at one time but the Dutch ambassador didn't pass the message on
Post WWII, they come to the Netherlands in droves
If the August Coup was successful and Hardliners took back control of the Soviet Union, what do you think would have happened?
I predict
>reversal of Glasnost and Perestroika
>Baltic States clamped down on hard
>reencroachment between USSR and China
>possible uprising crushed
>perhaps drift to computerization of the planned economy?
>>284203
Overall I think that the wave of 90's liberal naive optimism wouldn't have happened.
"The end of history" crap wouldn't become popular.
Iraq wins the gulf war and keeps Kuwait probably, it doesn't clear UN security council authorization and the Soviets would have buddied up with the Iraqis.
>>284203
>If the August Coup was successful and Hardliners took back control of the Soviet Union, what do you think would have happened?
>Ukraine runs away even faster
>Belarus runs away even faster
>Caucasus republics run away even faster
>Russia is left wallowing in shit with Central Asia
One important fact that people always forget about is that the coup itself was the main reason for local elites to declare independence proper. Before that USSR could have been restructured to some kind of "Union of Sovereign States" or whatever, after that, nuh uh.
>>284281
But why would they let them run away?
Ukraine was actually conflicted, it could have been held easily.
Belarus is just Russia, that isn't a problem to hold. Look at it now, it wishes it existed in the soviet Union.
Armenia would have stayed in the USSR, and the Azerbaijanis and Chechens would have started an insurgency.
Why do some cultures like titties?
And other cultures like the butt?
And still other cultures find it in them to appreciate both?
Are there some intrepid cultures that prefer flatness on both ends?

I feel sorry for Belarus. For a country with such an interesting history it's almost criminal that even its residents know fuckall about it and think its history started after WW2.
Therefore let's discuss its history.
>>284024
Belarussian history is simply Russian history with added occupation by Lithuanians.
Putin tier triumvirate-Russian masturbating aside Belarus actually is a made up country. Ukraine actually has some real interesting and unique history that justifies its existence, but the world just needs to accept that Belarus just somehow found itself on the wrong side of the Russian border.
>>284090
>Belarussian history is simply Russian history with added occupation by Lithuanians.
It's more like simply Lithuanian history with added occupation by Russians if you want to put it that way.
>>284090
From my understanding, the ancient "Lithuania" is actually modern Belarus.
That said, those people willingly abandoned their own language and got russified. I'm not shitting you, Belarusian is actually a minority language in Belarus. They deserve nothing but mockery and scorn.
Was Theodora a rotten slut as alleged by Procopius?
Was Justinian really a kek?
Well she was a literal whore. As in she had sex with strangers for money.
>>283932
Yeah a lot of that stuff was true
But who didn't rape little boys back then
>>283932
All royals ever have been absolute sluts and manwhores.
Are there any more battles like Stalingrad?
I'm talking about battles, where attacking side has the ultimate advantage and almost manages to wipe out the defending side completely until the defending side gets their shit together and annihilates the attackers

Yes, goy, the Russians always held back the inferior white people at every turn despite having disadvantage!!1!11 xDDDd :-D :PP
>>283959
Slavs are white.
Is the English language more Romance or Germanic?
>>283862
think of it as an Indian kid who spent all of his life in Europe with white parents and no interest in india. hes genetically an indian but his mannerisms and psychological culture are european
It's a French creole.
It's just bastardised French. It used to be a French colony after all.
Did Romans ever venture deeper into germanic and eastern Europe territories just to look around? I live in a shithole known as Poland and I wonder if any Romans ever walked over my country's land.
>To the victory of the emperors – army that lies at Laugaricio, 855 soldiers of the II. legion (made on the order of Marcus Valerius Maximianus, legate of the II. auxiliary legion)
Legions of Commodus left this in Trenčín, Slovakia in 179 AD

No. Ancient Slav Land (i.e. around Ukrainian Podolia-Carpathia, as far as I know) has been documented by them but they haven't actually gone there.
It's not like there was a point either, the region was quite poor with nothing to plunder.
Did the Danzig massacres take place?
I could not find anything reliable anout this
It looks like a good ol’ Nazi propaganda
>>283776
I can't find reliable info supporting what the poles said though
>>283796
>poles said
About what?
There is nothing suggesting those massacres ever happened
Why would Poles say anything about it?
>search for Phoenician art
>get Mesopotamian/Neo-Assyrian instead
Why didn't the Phoenicians make pictures?
"Phoenicians" didn't really have a culture, it was just a clusterfuck of Mesopotamian and Greek shit.
They were basically middlemen who just mooched off of other cultures without making anything new. Except their alphabet.
That said, they weren't bad artisans. The Assyrians commissioned ivory carvings from them, now known as the Nimrud Ivories. I'll post a few.
Also there's pic related, the a Phoenician sarcophagus inscribed with the oldest example of Phoenician script, from about 1000 BC.
>>283705
Why is it that Germans/German speaking people have made the most contributions/are the most prominent figures in psychology?
This isn't some "HURR DIVERSITY" post, I am genuinely curious. What is it with Germans and the human mind?
Is it the language/culture/education style or something else that facilitates the way of thinking for the discipline?
>>283588
Jews*
>in psychology
Well Germans love indulging in pseudoscience, so that's only expected.

What was the templars role in the Crusades? I keep searching the internet and I don't find a satisfying answer. Do any of you know? Please share
They killed muslims.
>>283567
Being bankers and securing trade routes.
So crusaders=templars?
What do you think constitutes a civilization?
I've seen a lot of definitions using checklists like writing, cities, monumental architecture, organized religion, stratified society, and so on, but I think these are too exclusive. Stricter definitions would mean that the illiterate Incas and Aztecs weren't civilized, nor were the literate but city-less Olmecs and medieval Ethiopians, nor the Harappan civilization which had cities and writing but lacked monumental architecture and (apparently) stratified society.
Personally, I'd say at least writing or cities is enough. I don't think that excludes any civilizations and I don't think it's too inclusive either.
