What if the United States had won the War of 1812?
How would that affected the European theater?

By win you mean what? Conquering Canada? It probably wouldn't affect shit since the relevance of Canadian territory is close to 0.

>>443779
Not much
The British military was only comitted to a secondary theater in Europe (Spain)

The only way for the Napoleonic Wars to end differently would be a change of outcome in the 1812 Russian campaign where Napoleon lost his invincible army to frost, disease and starvation.

Doesn't acknowledging morality exist but not following it make you immoral?
>>
>>443562
That's a subject for debate.

Unthinking beasts are generally considered to be amoral, but incapable of immorality. They can't do good or bad.

Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

>Given a country

No. You take a country by blood and suffering and hold on to it. No one is given a country
>>
>>441359
Well now they can easily carve their own state from the carcass of ISIL because no one would really stop them. They'd deserve it at that point. And they'd fight to the absolute death holding on to whatever country they found.

I think the middle east will be a shithole no matter what happens

>many religious dichotomies nibble at the heels of any army
>insanely large wealth gaps between countries due to luck with oil
>isreal randomly being awarded somebody elses land
>the cold war funneled hundreds of thousands of weapons into the region

You could make everybody in the region forget their religion and national history and it'd still be a bloodbath.

The term "cracka" comes from the nickname for guides in Louisiana who would use whips to kill snakes in the wild.

What is so cool about cowboys?

They're just glorified shepherds

Why does everyone seem so intent on destroying pieces of history now? Whether it's the Middle East, Europe or America everyone seems intent on destroying artifacts of the past. Is it just the time we live in or have other nations and cultures done similar removals as they evolved?

eastern germany - very, the polabian slavs had lived there for about three or four centuries before the germans started with military campaigns and germanization

AFAIK Berlin was settled by Slavs. Also cities like Stettin, Kolberg, Breslau and many, many more, that were German for a long time, have very slavic names.

how did the entire Inca Empire get conquered by less than two hundred Spaniards?
I know they had muskets and steel weapons, but the Inca outnumbered them hundreds to one and probably had more troops than the Spanish had ammunition.

Foreign diseases also played a huge factor.
>>
>>437362
Those 200 spaniards didn't do it alone, they allied with natives who had a bone to pick with their Inca oppressors and hoped to topple them with Spanish help. Little did they know Spanish oppression would just replace Inca oppression and make everyhing even worse for them.
>>
>>437362
Not sure how accurate this documentary I watched was, but from the sound of things it was a quick scuffle in a city that involved the spaniards capturing the sapa inca. This led to a massive civil war, and chaos erupting while the spaniards seized Cuzco unopposed.
Spain then imposes rule after getting word of success.
