Why don't you look it up?

Wikipedia is a thing, you know. You're not asking for discussion, you just want someone to spoonfeed you the same answers you'd get from one minute on wikipedia. How can you be so lazy that you can't be bothered to even try?

None of that matters though, because this must be a bait thread. I refuse to believe otherwise.

Why do modern blacks feel a connection with Egypt and not any of the civilizations they're likely to have some sort of blood tie to?

Is it simply because modern Western education only discusses Africa in terms of Ancient Egypt and then skips straight European colonialization? Could Afrocentrist WE WUZ bullshit be skipped if Songhai, Mali, Ghana, and Mutapa all received the same attention that European and Asian nations receive in public education?

They don't. The blacks who claim that are as common as Nordicists, the white version of that thing. They're just loud.

Why didn't Russia intervene during the NATO bombings in the Balkan wars? And why have Serbians elevated Russians to the status of gods?

Fuck me if i know. Historically Russians have been always closer to Bulgarians than Serbians.

>Why didn't Russia intervene during the NATO bombings in the Balkan wars?
Russia was still in the throes of the whole Soviet collapse thing, and Yeltsin was in no position to aggravate the West
>And why have Serbians elevated Russians to the status of gods?
It goes back to the First Serbian Uprising in 1804-1813, when Russia helped them fight for independence against the Ottomans for a while

>And why have Serbians elevated Russians to the status of gods?

We didn't. We like them because, you know, they are our only traditional ally who didn't throw bombs on us but that's about it. They also support us on Kosovo issue and are the third largest investor if I remember correctly. So, it is in our interest to have good relations. For some reason people seem to think that, because we keep good diplomatic relations with them and don't blindly hate them like other east Euros, we are somehow Russian cocksuckers.

There are some ultra nationalist groups who want government to end talks with EU and join RF or Euroasian Union, but they didn't manage to get a single party into the parliament on the last election, and I doubt they'll do any better in the next one.

As for why Russia didn't intervene, well, Yeltsin persuaded Milošević to back down in 1999 telling him Russia will have troops in Kosovo. Supposedly NATO told him this, but when Milošević decided to stop with military action, NATO, ehm, persuaded Yeltsin to back off.

Who would win in a total war, The Roman Empire or ancient China during their respective relative peaks? Let's assume the Roman Empire during the reign of Trajan vs China during the Han Dynasty. Also let's assume they shared a boarder.

Ottoman Empire lower than Italy? Are you sure about that?
>>
>>749458
As soon as I posted it I felt unsure about it, difficult to judge, Italy took Libya in 1912 from the Ottomans, both kind of sucked arse.
For what reason would you say Ottoman comes above Italy?

>THIS IS SPARTA! In Sparta, all of the men and boys were soldiers. They had very hard lives, and spent a lot of time fighting, cheating, stealing, and being bullied. If you were a female, you were also expected to be strong and tough. Although, you have more freedom here than women in some of the other city-states. Some of the other Greeks thought that Spartans were like animals, but when the Greeks were at war with the Persians, everyone wanted YOU on their side!
