Since none can lay claim to /his/ as their home board quite yet, I would like to ask what board we're all from and your historical area(s) of interest?
Those are some huge ass elephants

Yes, yes they are.
>>22319
No there's not. There's actually quite small.
What does /his/ think of modern art?
>>22136
I like the vvelvet underground desu
This is modern "art". It's garbage.
>>22136
Literally.
"It's what you think it is."
I feel like we've reached a point where subjectivity is everything.

This is /his/ not /Schiz/, >>>/x/
Other cultures/civilizations kept time. You could look at Chinese records and match up dates/events that happened in Europe.
Not just Chinese either.

Its a pretty novel concept, although it does kind of cut out a lot of pretty big things and records from outside of there tend to conflict. That's really all I can drum up on it. Perhaps some scientific research could be put towards it with dating and so such.
Would be a kick in the fucking pants wouldn't it?
What really caused it to fail?
Communism
Mugabe was a communist and that ideology propelled him to power
>>21335
rhodesia was betrayed by the western world, never forget.
>>21335
To be fair it was kind of doomed when even the Crown wasn't behind it anymore. They ended up stranded and in situations like that it really just becomes a matter of time before things break down.

I don't see it.
Who killed him?
Patsy Knoll
How are we suppose to know?
So, exactly how far back are we going?
>>20952
DINOSAUR GENERAL
Beginning of universe, as has already been discussed in great length in the religion threads
>>20952
Cavemen are history.
>Tfw this happened and there is nothing I, or any /pollack can do about it.
:(
That's war for you.
Hitler would have approved anyway since before Russia invaded he basically said the Russians were superior and Germans were inferior.
>>21096
Fuck you.
Can we discuss the genocide of Germans that occurred after WW2? Including POWs starved and killed by the allies and the soviets, the ethnic Germans who were purged in the east? As well as those wrongfully executed based on the findings of the kangaroo court known as the Nuremberg trials.
Why aren't we ever taught about this in school?
Go back to /pol/
Who genocided the germans?
No. Germans were monsters and deserved to be treated like monsters.
it ain't me thread

Find a flaw.

NC, SC, and GA. They basically almost turned the war back in favor for the Lobsterbacks.
>>20619
That's a modern map that poorly represents the colonies.
Why is the face of this board General Sherman?
Sherman ordered a bombardment of every city in the south he came across. “No consideration must be paid to the fact they are occupied by families, but the place must be cannonaded.”
He ordered his soldiers to rape women and children, then burn down their homes and eventually entire towns. He ordered his soldiers to kill every male, young or old even though they were not in the confederate army.
He was also known as a raging alcoholic that beat his wife and kids daily.

shut the fuck up
shut the fuck up
My fucking peasant, non slave owning ancestors were slaughtered by this piece of shit's soldiers.
If /his/ is going to ban offensive content why the fuck would you allow the war criminal as the face? Is it because I'm not Jewish so my suffering doesn't matter?!
What was the best way for America to deal with the USSR? Assuming the Soviet Union never went to shit and collapsed on its own, what policy was best for America? We all know containment didn't do shit. Would peace between their ideologies ever become a possibility or was the extended detente of the 70s the best it ever could've been?
>>20286
Detente. War entailed mutually assured destruction, no one could win.
Detente plus proxy wars was the best option. We were doing just fine (politically speaking) until Vietnam and southeast Asia happened. Domino theory was a cancer.
MAD kept the peace pretty well, but the Soviet Union was really a doomed state. Its a miracle it lasted as long as it did.
