I've realized now that 4Chan is essentially the internet version of ancient Greek city-states.
Every state feels some weak sense of vague camaraderie that makes us a "country", but they always fuck around with each other and mock each other.
So help me list these suckers out. I'm convinced that /fit/ is Sparta, and /sci/ is Athens. What does that make /his/?
We're olympus
>>864585
Both comparisons are way of. Closer role to Athens would be /a/.
Byzantium
Now hear me out. We're very new, we've got an interesting topic that should have been given a board earlier (Byzantium was relatively new, and was located in a great place) and we're very much interested in History, while Byzantium was fairly important, from what I hear.
Crete, or wherever all the Cretins lived.
>>864618
would be /b/, largest and most influental
/b/ is Persia (inb4 not greece)
/pol/ is Epirus
/v/ is Macedonia
/tv/ Illyria
>>864618
this
>>864585
I actually started writing a small essay about this a couple of years ago. It was actually about >greentext , but i never finished it and meant for /lit/. But I also saw the clear comparison between greek states and the enormous output of "culture" as product of not diversification but a great number of "closed multitudes".
It was called
>Implying this is literature
>>864639
/b/ has literally no influence for almost a decade
They are the modern day equivalent of Mongolia
>>864585
I guess we would be Halicarnassus
>>864657
open a wikipedia and look for yourself
only boards remotely known are v, pol and most of all b, no one cares about cartoon board
>>864643
/b/ is more Seleucids
the better question is which board = Ptolemaics?
>>864673
/b/ was famous 10 years ago. Now it could be replaced by a board with 3 generals: trap general, YLYL general, and name my bong general.
>>864691
The rest of the treads being roll for porn
>>864650
>title
Masterstroke
>>864691
first time i opened /b 6 years ago it was exactly same.
also j. lawrence leaks were like year and half ago
/mlp/ is Crete
posting somewhat related cap
>>864682
No, /b/ is definiteley Persia.
/r9k/ is the Seleucids.
/fa/ would be corinth
because of those /fa/ helmets
>>864743
corinth is lgtb
>>864585
/pol/ is definitely Macedon: former outsider on the rise who are getting more influence over the whole of Greece/4chan.
>>864731
why is /b/ persia?
>>864745
all of greece is /lgbt/
>>864764
ostracized by others, still very influental, but on its decline
>>864585
So who are the melians, the largest cucks?
"Right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must."[74] — This quotation is part of the Melian dialogue (Strassler 352/5.89).
>>864762
Not Thrace (Barbarian invaders)?
>>864731
/r9k/ is Epirus
/b/ is barbaric Thrace
>>864639
No, /b/ is Macedonia. Shunned by everyone else for being barbarians but occassionally very powerful.
Is /x/ Delphi?
>>864816
>FUCKING ROME FAAAAAGSSS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Someone post the epirus guy with the cool hat
>>864691
>actually going there to know this
>>864673
People know of it for its past doings. /b/ has been a pure porn board for a good 6 years.
They are a husk. /s4s/ has been the new /b/ since its inception.
Come on guys really?
/his/ is HERODOTUS making up fucking stories of the 4chan wars
>>864887
Is that where everyone went?
>4Chan
>>864903
>4Chan
>not 4Chan.com
>>864898
Old /b/tards either: left for other chans, left for other boards, or just grew the fuck up or a combination of the three.
/s4s/ is a malestrom of retarded shit and has been since it was created. It's actually sort of impressive that they haven't settled down into any form of coherance.
>>864723
>Minotaurs and Centaurs
Checks out
/fit/ would be Sparta, no question
Athens is shared by /hm/ and /y/
I wonder where /tv/, /co/ more importantly /his/ would be
>/fit/
>sparta
>not /k/
Pls
>>864781
it was only ever ostracized by the greeks though, who were relatively poor and not that populous
/x/ is Delphi
/sci/ is Miletus
/sp/ is Olympia
/b/ is Tartarus
>>864909
>not 4Chan.net
>>864927
this
>>864585
>reddit is macedonia
>tries hardest to be """greek"""
>eventually overruns greece
I would say "/b/" is the latin empre, since they will just storm in and turn everything into chaos.
>>864673
Hey now, a lot of people know of /mlp/.
>>865014
>not 4Chan.gov
>>864673
People know about /tv/ through baneposting.
>>864585
Miletus is /his/ basically spawned all the historians/philosophers and the idea of making records from what I understand.
>>865515
Since we are talking about Ancient Greece "Gaulic Barbarians" would probably be better.
>>865785
Galatians?
>>865794
Plus most other Gauls living near the greeks.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Thermopylae_(279_BC)
>all these people saying /fit/ should be sparta
>not Thebes, the center of Hellenic homoeroticism
get your shit together niggers
/pol/ is sparta
>>864585
So would that make /pol/ Hitler due to the way in which they repeatedly try to invade and homogenize threads that have nothing to do with the BBC?
>>864585
/pol/ is Argos because they go full troll mode and just do not give a fuck
/his/ is Tylidsus, a former colony of /pol/ that suffers from internal strife (stormfags versus commies)
/v/ is Macedon, capable of taking over the known world but always fracturing in the end
/b/ is Athen, used to be totally awesome and dominating. Cool new ideas that influenced everyone.
/soc/ is Sparta. Too cool for you types who get off on attention whoring.
/k/ is/was Troy. They used to be gucci till they picked a fight with the ATF and got BTFO'd.
If 4chan is the Greeks, does that make reddit the Romans?
They got their shitty "pantheon" from us: Advice animals and rage comics.
Overran us while being obsessed with our culture
Collapse of the Western Autistic Empire when?
>>866090
No, facebook is Rome.
/fit/ is the only board homosexual enough to be sparta.
/lit/ is Lesbos
We're a small island with a literature-related history, and filled with the sort of artsy androgynous type
>>866416
No, /u/ is Lesbos.
>>864585
/his/ is obviously Macedonia
>WE WUZ ALEXANDER N SHIET
>>866066
Yes, Hitler was a very bad Greek city state.
>>866418
>tfw I didn't even realise that was a board and had to check
persia is reddit
>>866073
>/soc/ is Sparta. Too cool for you types who get off on attention whoring.
>/soc/ially inept
>sparta
Naw nigga you are thinking of Pergamon or Odrysia
>>866418
/u/ is a caravan of ships constantly watching Lesbos
/d/ is canadafags
>>864657
Nice
>>864844
Here you go buddy
>>866073
>>864927
>>864585
couldn't say about the others, but /k/ is Sparta. Dragon dildos and weapons, nuff said.
>>864585
Corinth.
>>864585
op, /fit doesn't deserve to be Sparta
>>864585
>/fit/
>sparta
sparta is /k/ obviously
/fit/ is obviously too gay to be sparta
>>864585
>I'm convinced that /fit/ is Sparta
/fit/ is more like Athens tbqh, since it's populated mostly by faggots.
>>864585
/fit/ isn't Sparta. /fit/ is too vain to be Sparta. I've been a /fit/izen since 2011 and its reputation across 4chan is much better than it really is. /fit/ is like r9k if r9k lifted a barbell once in a while and browsed /pol/ too much. /k/ is Sparta.
>>867550
No, I absolutely abhor /fit/ and anyone who browses /fit/ is gayer than /lgbt/, /mlp/, /hm/ and /cm/ posters.
>>867566
I don't even go on fit but you honestly are coming off as a mad lardo.
>>867572
Ι don't hate them because I can't work out, but because any time I'd try to ask for advice or something else, they'd always shift it to some gay convo, or how you need to choke on your buddy's semen to get dem proteins n shiet.
/b/ is on it's decline and /pol/ is growing in power.
Take this from some who's been going on /pol/ for five years to get world-related news( I know, I'm an idiot)
>>867582
>Getting this BTFO by /fit/
You were never gonna make it anyway friendo
>>867724
I don't see how acting like a massive faggot BTFOs someone...
>>864585
/pol/ is definitely Macedon
>muh northern superiority
>muh blonde superiority
>we're apart of you guys but we're better and not shills
>"/pol/ stay out" is as ubiquitous today as "Macedon stay out" was in the days of Greek city-states
>>864682
/d/ of course
>>866094
No, surely Facebook would be the Frankish Empire under Louis the Pious?
>>866090
reddit is the >h>r>e
They have a fuckton of small fiefdoms all rulled inept local monarchs who answer to some nominal administrators.
>>868128
you couldn't handle the bantz, therefore
>B T F O
>T
>F
>O
>>868221
It wasn't bantz, it was actual faggotry, a guy even pulled up a study for how much protein there was in semen...
>>867582
thats because everything fitness wise is answered by the sticky, which leaves /fit/ for the bants
What Greek state would /c/ be? As far as I'm aware, no boards dislike them, and we don't dislike any other boards.
/pol/ is Ionia
