What's the scenario?
How far away would the countries be from each other?
Would they have to produce their supplies themselves?
Would they have to win a single battle, or would would some of them have to stop an invasin from the other or should both take the enemy capital?

>How far away would the countries be from each other?
Both Estonia and Roman Empire would be in their current position, also, Roman Empire would know where Estonia is located

>Would they have to produce their supplies themselves?
Yes

>Would they have to win a single battle, or would would some of them have to stop an invasin from the other or should both take the enemy capital?
They would have to annex their enemy or make it a vassal state. Genocide also works

How did statism came to be a thing, since, for all intents and purposes no one protested on more government throughout history?

And that's how states got created.
>>
>>916971
I prefer an alternative theory. While that could be true, it presupposes that the people would logically, or for any real reason willingly give up their hard worked harvest to some random chieftain. More likely, they were subjugated by hunter-gatherer/Shepherd tribes who took taxe as a form of yearly plunder, and eventually permanently settled.

So the american anthropologist Gail Silverman claims that after 35 years of research into the inca tokapus (also know as quelcas), has found irrefutable evidence that confirms that the incas in fact had writing.
So far she has found 30 roots, 10 suffixes, 6 affixes and 1 verb called "kutiy".
Scholars have always known that tocapus have some sort of meaning (we even know the meaning of some of them) and that the Incas didn't put them randomly, but there has always been skepticism that it was actual writing.
She stated that we need at least a hundred years to get where today the Maya studies are.

Him and Diogenes get along. Although Diogenes thinks Karl is idiotic he respects his willingness to reject social conventions and materialism. As they leave the room they make plans to meet up next Tuesday.

nietzche because nietzche always uses high-minded pie in the sky allegories that don't always pan out like the "will to power" karl would probably just something like "isn't that whole will to power thing just a dick move"

>>916981
Diogenes would at least know that Karl is 100 times smarter than his producers.
