Did Emperor Meiji plan the war, or did his advisers conceive the idea of attacking Russia?
Why didn't the British fully commit to the Japanese side?
How was the United States able to convince the two sides to meet a peace agreement?
Does Japan have a legitimate claim to Sakhalin & the Kurils, historically speaking?
Also feel free to discuss the war in general and post related pics.

>Why didn't the British fully commit to the Japanese side?
Primarily because the French had an alliance with Russia and had Britain decided to come steaming in, France would have been obliged to fight alongside Russia. This was something that neither parties wanted, considering the situation with Germany in Europe (who would have gained massively from an Anglo-French split), and the looming Entente cordiale treaty was literally around the corner (it was signed 2 months after hostilities between Russia and Japan had broken out). Secondly most of the world was expecting Russia to curb-stomp the Japanese, you have to remember that the world was utterly astounded when the Japanese beat the Russians at Tsushima.

Thanks, I didn't realize the French and Russians were allied at the time. I have heard/read that the British did support in small ways, do you know of any examples of this?

/his/, Who are the true heirs to the Roman Empire?
Western Roman Empire => Holy Roman Empire => Empire of Austria
Eastern Roman Empire => Imperial Russia => Finland
Rome==>Byzantines==>Turks
Rome fell in the 1920s, never forget.
>>673951
There are no more heirs Roman values became memetic more then one nation can uphold values of rome

Did the Holocaust have any benefits for the Third Reich
>>673938
Fulfillment of ideological imperatives.
It would have gotten rid of the Jews if it had worked, which probably would have been good for Germany
>>673943
In what way?
They would have lost their intellectual elite, which seems like a pretty big disadvantage to me
tfw you realize that the British did more good than evil for the world.

Why?
No /pol/ stuff please

>>673652
Because of whites. And no, I'm not trying to /pol/, but it's true. During those times, Europe was engulfed by many wars compared to other parts of the world yet managed to get so many accomplishments. Why do you think that is?
Given that you could not, for the sake of wondering, be a Christian, and given the option between Islam and whatever paganism is most closely associated to your culture, which would you choose? The other Abrahamic religion that is somewhat similar to Christianity (>inb4 totally different) or your Zeus, Odin/Wodan, and other assorted?
>>673611
>compare your similarities to islam to various schools of thought that were both primative in their time and largely lost
This is stupid.
Further:
>If you couldn't be of the true faith, which untrue faith would you support
Anon this is a poor thread.
>>673633
>>compare your similarities to islam to various schools of thought that were both primative in their time and largely lost
That's why it's a question for an individual.
>>If you couldn't be of the true faith, which untrue faith would you support
>for the sake of wondering
Read the OP
Out comes down to wether you'd choose between something similar to Christianity, another Abrahamic faith, or your land ties. Assume whatever you choose is now "correct".
>>673611
I'd definitely choose Islam, it's only a skip and a jump away from Roman Catholicism as it is. To be a "pagan" you'd have to change your entire lifestyle, start living in the woods sacrificing goats and praising oaks or whatever

>"For the average person, all problems date to World War II; for the more informed, to World War I; for the genuine historian, to the French Revolution."
Is there any doubt that the French Revolution is the worst event in world history?
Yes? Existence of the whites.

Is facism a genuinly flawed ideology or did it just become unpopular because Hitler went a bit overboard with it?
define fascism because there are like 50000000 variations of it
>>672863
its a very loose idealogy because it rejects internationalism so each country will have its own distinct interpretation but hilter basically made it all seem the same and therefore bad

What is the best language for thought? Can there be another lingua franca?
>>672804
I was serving in a small unit. I was still a private when we were raided by children - village children.
>>672916
I read book past, present and future.
Latin, and then romance languages.
German is a good language for philosophy.
