So, was it basically a bunch of greedy planters butthurt about the fall of tobacco prices?
>>1325347
It's far more complex than that, but also as simple as that.
So what if it was? What are you going to do about it?
>>1325347
Doesn't mater what it was, you're still not getting those Colonies back Muhammad.

Because I actually want an answer, I refuse to believe that this meme exists without any reasoning behind it
> everything in the world actually comes from ancient Egyptians
>>1325114
Tbhf quite a lot does come from them, indirectly of course. They were pretty influential upon the Minoans and the early Greeks and from them you can trace the influence to the west in general and the west came to define global culture so yeah in a way much of it comes back to the Egyptians or the potential proto-Egyptian culture that may have carved the sphinx around 10k-12k BC.
On a side note the word "alcohol" doesn't because it comes from the Sumerians.
>>1325114
Despite ancient egypt being great i don't ever hear about anything about any of its great people other than the kings,are there any that are recorded or i can read about?.
>>1325675
i don't recall ever hearing anything about*
Haven't slept in a while don't mind me.
So I know Ishi "The last wild Indian" was discovered in 1911, but where any other indian tribes still wearing traditional clothing and living in traditional housing past then? When did Indians start wearing normal clothes and living in brick houses? When did the last Indian tribe cease to live in the wild? I have searched all this on google but can't find any answers, searching anything to do with indian clothing just brings up shit about halloween costumes being racist
umm it's pretty obvious hun x
>>1325070
The Maya still wear traditional clothing and follow their traditional religion.
>>1325070
ive seen pics from the 30s with an indian woman living in a teepee.
Also apache raids continued until 1920s.
>This agglomeration which was called and which still calls itself the Holy Roman Empire was neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire.

How come former spanish colonies are worse off today than british or french ones?
Mexico is worse than Canada and the US.
>>1324934
>than british or french ones?
Most of their colonies are way shittier than the Spanish ones
>>1324934
I'm pretty sure its a hundred times better to be a Lat-Am than an iFrican.
>>1324934
This same thread was made a couple of days ago.
It has been done on /int/ too dozens of times.
And misteriously there have been like 3 or 4 threads about Spain in the last hours.
So shit thread, I guess.
Remember back a while ago that guy posted the thread on /b/ about the bunker his grandfather made? Well i think i've found the location.
There was a google image in the screenshot that was too low res to make out. If you increase the contrast, you can make out a '4', '9' and 'w'. Since the last coordinate is west, thats more evidence supporting he was in the US or Canada (he spoke english too).
On the picture of the entrance, you can see there is a lack of light probably due to clouds, and the trees are mossy, This is a good indicator that it rained the night before.
According to http://expectingrain.com/discussions/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=71416&start=25&sid=483a41e0ad169f3814f78860b7ddf53a&view=print
the day before the post was posted (August 21st, 2012) there was expected rain in Rochester, MN.
Now guess what? The longitude and latitude of Rochester is ~44 N, 92.5 W. This lines up with the picture!
Why are you doxxing somebody on /his/, what do you gain from this pointless thread?
well this relates to history and humanities

good work detective
so, do you have the coords on google earth? is there gold in the bunker? will you visit and film you urbanexploration?
Is it good to live a life in which you are guided by your principles, never giving in on them or betraying them? Even if this meant your death? Or is it better to live, having compromised your principles and beliefs?

Hey /his/,
There's a term for demanding land because it sometimes in the past belonged to your ancestors. But it can't think of it right now.
Help me out.

Liberation?

Or maybe reclamation.
Why didn't Japs helped their friend Hitler to defeat USSR, instead attacking USA and making things worse for everyone?
>>1324754
Cause the Axis sucks.
>>1324754
They got spooked by Zhukov.
>>1324754
Unlike Russians, Japs actually adhere to their treaties and they had a non-agression pact with USSR.

How about some of you faggots try endorsing endeavors with actual ends. You argue about the words of others like gospel, but shun the truth in scientific method like the plague. I guess it's fun to play smarty-pants with quotes and diatribe of ancient minds while true intellects carve the future with real progress. Doesn't tipping your fedora endlessly get tiring?
>>1324732
The scientific method is literally based on the philosophy of empiricism.
The first chapter of any science book is about the philosophy behind science.
While there are plenty of rather ridiculous philosophies and some humanities are bunk, you are a fucking moron if you don't think philosophy is important to practically applying the scientific method.
>>1324732
So who pissed in your cereal bowl there Mr. Special Snowflake? Is this a history or philosophy question or are you stirring things up with a shitpost like everybody you are apparently complaining about?

Educate me on the political philosophy of Martin Luther, and Lutheran social and political thought in general.
I know Luther was pretty Jew-aware. I've also heard that his political ideas were very right-leaning and quasi-Hobbesian and Machiavellian, and they derive directly from his theology.
Anyone care to elaborate on that and/or point out instantiated cases of Lutheran political thought in states and politicians in history?
Can German Idealism and Hegelianism be considered byproducts of the Reformation?
>>1324718
>Educate me on the political philosophy of Martin Luther, and Lutheran social and political thought in general.
He hated peasants and Joos.
>Luther constantly writes that God "damns the undeserving" as well as "elects the undeserving."
>"You may be worried that it is hard to defend the mercy and equity of God in damning the undeserving, that is, ungodly persons, who, being born in ungodliness, can by no means avoid being ungodly, and staying so, and being damned, but are compelled by natural necessity to sin and perish; as Paul says: 'We were all the children of wrath, even as others' (Eph.2.3), created such by God Himself from a seed that had been corrupted by the sin of the one man, Adam. But here God must be reverenced and held in awe, as being most merciful to those whom He justifies and saves in their own utter unworthiness; and we must show some measure of deference to His Divine wisdom by believing Him just when to us He seems unjust.

He was a virulently anti-semetic Catholic friar who could no longer stomach how vile and evil the murderous thugs who ran the catholic church had become, so he tried to get them to come back to normal human behavior. He failed. Then he tried to fit in with the Jews after he got excommunicated from the papists, and failed there too.
Then he went full evil and let his true catholic nature shine by writing "on the Jews and their lies", which inspired Adolph Hitler, who quoted it several times in Mein Kampf.
To the papists, he's the boogeyman. They pretend every Christian in the world follows Luther, and thus attempt to make Rome the capital of Christendom when in fact it is the house of evil spirits and all nature of foul things.
