Saint Benedict.

We know the pope will be deified in a hundred years, so it is best to start praying to him now.

Probably Aquinas as I really like his writings.

Thomas Aquin. He was analytical and he loved food, what's not to like? Also, I love Dominican habits.

>Parts of Africa had wealthy, organized, and technologically decent empires. I would even argue that Europe only surpassed them around the 1500s or so
Fixed that for you.

A great deal of Africa simply isn't conducive to the natural spread of civilization.

>To the Crusaders they were taking up arms to protect Christ and his Kingdom

I'm surprised he didn't mention the Crusaders also took up arms as a way to ensure their own salvation, as Green just mentioned it minutes before. The Crusaders were mainly noble men, who were well aware their secular duties of war and attaining wealth was in contrast to what Jesus' preached. They were afraid of the after life, and saw the Crusades as a way to earn pennence for...

Mainly led, most were soldiers or the general poor rabble. At least as far as the first crusade goes.

I remember in high school we had to refer to the crusaders as the "pale horde" when giving presentations on this.

What would Europe be if not for colonization of the Americas? It'd continue to batter itself into poverty and strife, as well as keep an entire collection of cultures isolated from the exchange of ideas (and a few diseases that killed hundreds of thousands) that we value today.

I think colonization was what Europe needed. I'm sorry for the NAs, but nations do what they gotta do to survive. They shouldn't be begrudged it.

Generally good for some, bad for most at the time. But good for people today, due to increased globalization

Foucalt was only ever loosely connected to actual historical scholarship. Most of it was historical philosophy AKA sparse on actual empirical evidence and chock full of opinions and assumptions.

Do you think the Sumerians had memes? There's examples of wit from Greeks, Romans, and a bit from Babylonians and Carthaginians. There any Sumerians with a sense of humor?

Also, is there a difference between Sumer and Sumeria?

I think there was a Battle of Lauban, which was basically a lucky last ditch German tactical victory in 1945. So the 1st Ukrainian Front was kicking ass in their advance westward and the 7th Tank Guards Corps of the 3rd Guards Tank Army attacked the Silesian city of Lauban. This started on February 17th and only the remainders of the 6th Volksgrenadier Division defended the place, so they were pretty screwed. However the 8th Panzer Division, 408th Division, and 10th Volksgrenadier Division swept in and stopped the advance. However many of them were understrength and lacked fuel....
