So we know South Asia, Japan, Southeast Asia, Near & Far Oceania, Australia and the Americas were populated with Australoid peoples but why do we never talk about their cultural imprints and impacts?
Sugarcane, Banana, Taro, breadfruit were domesticated by them. Look at how they influenced the world.
The world's oldest pottery was crafted by them.
The first humans to expand out of Africa went all the way down to South America via the Bering Strait.
So let's post about interesting subjects and images surrounding Australoids. Seems neat to me.
I remember reading somewhere that the entirety of the population of the Americas, excluding the Inuits, descended from a group of around a hundred individuals.
Oh a couple of other interesting things I remember reading somewhere. There were Native Americans in possession of small amounts of Chinese pig iron from unknown sources before being in contact with Europeans. There was a Native American tribe around the great lakes region that had some European DNA from long before the 1500s.
I'm too lazy to look for sources or confirm this shit but I'd like it if someone would because I wouldn't mind reading up on this stuff again it's interesting.

Is there a more overrated King than Richard the Lionheart?
In fact I'll go a step further, he was a bad king.

He made Salahuddin al Ayyubi his bitch
>>1230007
He was a "great king" because he failed to retake the holy lands. I like people who don't fail to take the holy lands.
>In the early modern period many Irishmen and women fled to Spain as a result of political and military turmoil in their homeland. The belief that the Gaelic Irish were descended from Míl Espáine and his Spanish followers was current in Spain as well as Ireland, and as a result the Irish in Spain were given all the rights and privileges due to Spanish subjects. In 1680 King Charles II of Spain issued a decree stating that "the Irish in Spain have always enjoyed the same privileges as Spaniards. This has always been the practice and is actually so...

>What's the connection between the Irish and the Spanish?
Irish mythology claims that the Irish came from Galicia, which is what the Míl Espáine thing is referring to. Around the same time of the reformation Spain was at odds with England and positioning themselves as the defender of Catholics. The Irish were under the thumb of the English yet remained staunchly Catholic. They sought aid on the continent and Spain provided it. After the Gaelic lords failed in their rebellion...

On me. The hard part is trying not to get hard.
Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
Life is still more interesting than death, no matter what happens.
So instead of killing yourself, try to look onto your hardships as an epic adventure.

Made islam it better or worse?
/his/, why was there no contact between mesoamerican and northamerican native cultures even given their proximity?
>>1187687
What proximity?
there are more longitudal geographic barriers than latitudal ones
>>1187687
There might have been. Mississippian oral culture (we know oral culture to actually be pretty reliable for broad strokes like geological events, mass migrations, etc.) told of a boogeyman from the south. They would scare their children by saying if they didn't behave, a great feathered serpent would sail up the river and snatch them away.
Plus there are non-nahua skulls found in sacrificial sites, meaning having the larger north americans as slaves may have been a status symbol (you only sacrificed important...

Did Louis XVI deserve to die?
>>1230713
No more so than any leader of any country deserves to die, and certainly less than the people who executed him.
Yes, because he failed to control the peasantry like a good king should.
>>1230713
No
He was a good man who cared deeply for his subjects
What did he do wrong?
Let his wife cuck him with a hobo and ignored what the people wanted
>>1221543
Being an incompetent fucktard that allowed his people to starve and feel resentment towards him, without a care in the world. Then proceed to lose a war against fucking Japan and then pull Russia into a war it couldn't win.
