Thanks to the Big Bang. Which presumably was some kind of Quantum Fluctuation, Thanks Physics ;_;
What if the Spartacist Uprising/German Revolution was a success?
Could they have linked up with the Bolsheviks and ignited the world revolution?
>>1266854
>Spartacists take control of Berlin
>Months later, french Renault tanks rush down the city
>Germany turns communist
>Poland eventually gives and is divided by Germany and Russia
>Italy is still going strong
>Britain, France and the western powers see communism spreading
>They ally with Italy
>Spain, Austria, the Netherlands and other countries join the alliance
>Righteous crusade against Bolshevism
>Roman empire restored
Why couldn't this have happened!

The rise of Hitler would have been entirely averted, even the British bourgeoisie might have realised the game was up
Friendly reminder that Palestine is NOT a real country or nation. Palestine was what the home of the Philistines (A nomadic non-Arab people near the Aegean) was referred to by Greek historians. They only ever lived on a small strip of what is today the West Bank. This area was renamed Palestina by the angry Romans after the Jewish revolts they quelled. This was to minimize Jewish claim to the land as the land was previously known as Judea or land of the Jews
Friendly reminder that the Ottomans and local Arabs referred to it more as "Southern Syria" than Palestine ore-Israel. Syria did not recognize Palestine until 2011 for this reason. They did not see Israel, Palestine, or even Jordan as independent nations, but rather part of Greater Syria
Friendly reminder that since the 1880's, Jews have been moving into the land, having bought large portions of it (legally) from the landlords under the Ottomans
Friendly reminder that Palestinian Arabs are a made up ethnicity used as a political tool by the Arabs to put a thorn in Israel's side. They are in reality Jordanians. Trans-Jordan was what Jordan was called by the British because it was on the other side of the Jordan River. Cis-Jordan, is Palestine
Friendly reminder that the Arab leaders could have declared Palestinian Independence from 1948-1967 but did not. This is because the above is correct and that Palestinians are a threat to Jordanian security. In 1970, the Jordanians fought and forced the PLO into Lebanon. Arabs nations support and deny Palestinian statehood as suits their own agenda seeing as how on the international stage, many sympathize with Palestinians
Friendly reminder that Palestine the Arab fake """nation""" has no history, language, culture or custom distinct from the Arabs of the area
Friendly reminder that both Palestine and Israel (and Belgium) are fake nations.
>Palestine is not a real country
Neither is Ukraine. Or Turkey.

I agree but the Jews claim on the land is equally weak. It's based on religious which shouldn't be a serious basis for any major political decision.
Hey, /his/
Which is your favorite moral dilemma?
>>1266538
meat
I have one
Which is more selfish/immoral, killing yourself and causing your loved ones to suffer, or guilting someone with a miserable life to stay alive just for you?

>guilting someone with a miserable life to stay alive just for you
>set out with 94,000+ men

I see him overlooking the mountains, as he sees his elephants fall to their deaths. Then while his underlings are beseeching him to turn back with the crash of tons of ivory crashing to the valley floor in the background he will whisper "more" to which his underlings will say "what?". He will then look them in the eye and scream "MORE.....MORE ELEPHANTS MUST DIE"
It's surprising they followed him up there
What is their purpose?
Do they still hold any value today, or are they just a relic of times past?
Also, I live in Canterbury and I am thinking of walking to Rome. Should I?

If you live in the isles don't you guys walk up mountains barefoot & it's the same as a pilgrimage

That would be fun regardless of what religion you follow.

How could Japan have won WWII?
>>1266292
Join the Allies
By not losing WWII
>>1266292
by not overextending and trying to form their pacific coalition thing. Also the US would have to have not joined the war...
First time posting here.
Hopefully this is relevant to this board - I have a question.
What if the U.S won the Vietnam war?
Ignoring how the U.S would win the war first...
Would the bitter past of Vietnam be more happy much-like WWII? Celebrated liberators in awful places and times? Or would people still spit at the thought and reason as to why they went to Vietnam in the first place? How would the public opinion shift?
Its an odd war. Right now only lefties and morons scoff at its existance, and there wouldnt be less morons if we won.
>>1266271

The price of rubber would be set by bridgestone instead of the brppa

Battle of Fontenoy,
May 11th, The Year of Our Lord, 1775.
Why are there so many paintings of it?
Bumping with pics of this battle
Cap for very lazy people
Who would win in a street fight?
Smith would kick Marx's fat ass back to Germany!
Adam Smith, he was an expert at destroying working class people.
Marx was a bearmode neet philospher and Smith was a nancy fuckboy in some book club
What is your home country's stance on various war crimes committed by it throughout history?
Does it outright dismiss them?
Admit and glorify them?
Admit and indulge in self-hate because of them?
Admit but couldn't give less of a shit about them?
Depends on who the crimes were against. We paid reparations to the Indians and Japanese because they're not white. You never hear the end of the Indian thing especially. Metis rebels are considered heroes. The few massacres of German troops and the post-war ethnic cleansing of Germans that our soldiers participated in gets totally ignored, and when it is brought up it's considered justified because "they were Nazis." (I only know about it because my grandpa was a zombie who didn't want to fight so the army used him as a guard in a concentration camp after the war, and he told me about Germans being arbitrarily beaten and killed and the starvation and disease.) I'm sure there are atrocities Canadian troops have hand in since WWII but you don't hear about them.
