>tfw he wasn't even the worst leader the C.A.R. has had, never-mind contemporary Africa.
Anyone who thinks or calls himself "world leader" belongs in a nut house. Any public servant would love for you to think of him as a leader, because he's a voluntary slave, a servant with millions of masters. Sorry about your luck having to live in the feudal system, but you know old saying "when life gives you lemons move to Iceland"

Metal helmets don't deflect bullets. They retard shrapnel and thrown up rocks and dirt.

Were Swiss mercenaries really all that? Wiki says they dominated the field of battle, but according to Rousseau they were so prone to desertion that they had to be banned from singing their traditional music, lest they get nostalgic for their homelands and run away.

Their prime had already passed during Rosseau times.

Urs Graf was a mercenary and doodler
He liked to draw pictures of warriors and prostitutes. This is a German Landsknecht, the Swiss Pikemen's rival, being fucked up the ass by Satan.

Look at this beautiful norse architecture truly they were as sophisticated as they were brave when they fought heroic battles against monks and farmers I don't know how modern world would look like without massive contribution of the Norsemen.

To deny the African origin of Grecian civilization the Eurocentrists attack Martin Bernal's book: Black Athena. This book has nothing to do with Afrocentrism. In the two volumes published thus far, Bernal maintains that Semites from Phoenicia and the Semitic Hyksos speaking rulers of Egypt, took civilization to Greece, not Black Africans.
J.A. Rogers in Sex and Race, Parker, Diop and DuBois on the other hand, are Afrocentric scholars. These scholars have reviewed the writings of the classical authors, the anthropological, linguistic and historical evidence to reach...

Dr. Lefkowitz (1992) and Snowden (1992,1976) perpetuate the myth that the only blacks in ancient Europe were slaves or mercenaries. This is false the Greek historical works make it clear that many ancient settlers of the Aegean came from Africa , especially the Garamantes and Pelasgians. G. W. Parker wrote that: "I need not go into details concerning the ethnical relations of the Romans, since they, too are Mediterranean and are closely related to the same African confederation of races ...[situated in Greece]. Aeneas, their mythical founder of Troy. The Aenead, like the...

r. Molefi Kete Asante has observed that: " The aim is to open [Afrocentric] fields of inquiry and to expand human dialogue around questions of social, economic, historical and cultural concern. Everything must be run through the sieve of doubt until one hits the bedrock of truth. Our methods, based on the idea of African centeredness, are meant to establish a clear pattern of discourse that may be followed by others". Based on this definition Black Athena, is not an Afrocentric work. This book is meant to imply that the Hyksos or Semitic speaking west Asians developed...

Bernal (1991) sees Hyksos invaders as Hurrian, Semitic, Indo-Iranian speakers. As a result he believes that the Danaos and Kadmeans or Egyptian founders of Thebes in Greece, were the Hyksos. (Bernal 1991, p.495) In general, Bernal (1991) believes that when the Hyksos were driven from Egypt, they settled in the Aegean and developed civilization.
Bernal's view of the Hyksos as the founders of Grecian civilization has nothing to do with the work of Afrocentric scholars. The problem with Bernal (1991) is that he believes that the "Pre-Hellenes" or Pelasgian...

What was the connection between prohibition and first wave feminism? Are the people who describe it as a proto-SJW movement right?
>>461690
You seem to forget that prohibition by and large is also a product of Very Conservative Protestant elements in American society.
Who are quite the opposite of SJWness.
>>461690
Iirc prohibition was a big thing for Christians, not feminists. It's better to describe it as a proto war on drugs

ITT we post and depict paintings related to history events.
>La Morte di Giulio Cesare dal pittore Vincenzo Camuccini
Why did the artist superimpose triangles all over that nice painting? Didn't he realize he was ruining the product of his hard work?
pic related, one of my favorite paintings ever.
Can you post a version of that Camuccini without the overlay?

It's post-modern, you pleb
Wow, no thread?
Ok. Let's celebrate the anniversary of Washington crossing the Delaware, killing a few Kraurs, capturing a fuckton, and pulling off one hell of a surprise attack.
Also, pre-celebration for Trenton and Princeton victories.

Why does the Bible anthropomorphize God so often?
God speaks, Gen. 1:3; converses, Lev. 4:1; calls, Lev. 1:1; he hears, Ex. 16:12; sees, Gen. 1:4; smells, 1 Sam 26:19; laughs, Ps. 2:4; and hisses, Isa. 7:18. He has eyes, Amos 9:4, which he sets on sinners; hands, with which he grasps them, Amos 9:2; a hand, that is against the prophets that see vanity, Ezek. 13:9; fingers, with which he writes the tables of the Law, Deut. 9:10; an arm, which he stretches out with might, Jer. 27:5, and which he lays bare before all nations to seperate them, Isa. 52:10; ears, Num. 11:18, 14:28, Ezek. 8:18, 2 Kings 19:28; feet, under which he whirls the clouds like dust, Nah. 1:3, and for which there is even a footstool, Isa. 66:1; a mouth, with which he instructs the peoples, Jer. 9:12; lips that are full of indignation and a tongue that is a devouring fire, Isa. 30:27; a head, that has a defense, Ps. 60:7; a face which he maketh to shine upon his saints, Num. 6:25, and which he hides to the terror of the creature, Ps. 104:29; and a back which Moses was permitted to see, Ex. 33:23. His heart turns within him and his emotions are kindled, Hos. 11:8
Because at the time all gods literally walked around and literally had houses and all that.
T. Canaanites and other mesopotamians
In the old tradition, god and other deities were men that died. Hence zeus who had a tomb in greece, for example. Don't forget that funerary practises existed long before religions.

Because he has a cult of personality. He's more performance artist than academic at this point.

Is perversion bad?
If so, why?
If not, why?
What would you consider perversions?
What is acceptable in terms of sex?
depends on the time and the place.
Perversion is subjective.
>durrr doesn't this JPEG make you feel uncomfortable?
That's my point. Feels. Feeling. Ally McFeel. "Perversion" is a personal expression of disgust upon exposure to a stimulus in a sexual context.

For God? For me? For you? For an organisation? For some group?
If someone tried to revive the Roman Empire in a post-apocalyptic setting, what would it look like?
>>452916
how am i supposed to answer that question
a post-apocalyptic setting could be literally anything, just like a post-ice-age setting can be literally anything. I'm struggling to see anything that could be reasonably asserted about this scenario. A revival of the Roman Empire might look somewhat similar to the Roman Empire i suppose.
Is that the answer you were looking for? That it might look a bit like the Roman Empire? It would probably be more futuristic though, unless it wasn't
