Even great empires have their limits. Let's assume Napoleon limited his European goals and kept North American territories. (In other words, no Louisiana Purchase). Securing the borders of France and annexing the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Belgium might be enough; Napoleon went quite a...

The Chinese saying is 見好就收 (Harvest when the perspective is still good). This takes place in gambling, wars, stock market investments, or more. While this often means not taking the highest possible reap, it often means sustainable development. Could Imperial...

I wonder why we never installed a term limit for the german chancellor. Not in the Kaiserreich, not in the Weimar Republic and also not in the BRD and DDR. We have a 2 term limit for the president. Who has a ceremonial role and no real power but the chancellor can get elected again and again...

We don't need their oil since we have shale gas, and we can spend on renewable energies. And they clearly don't like us, despite coming to live here..... Wouldn't it be a viable win-win situation for us to limit ties/access to the Arab world?

Initially, I thought about Canada; then I think of Mexico as well. "The true north strong and free" isn't really this strong in economic and military power, but certainly, it enjoys one of the best standard of living on the world. Except for areas with real estate boom (Vancouver and Toronto)...

Watched 'Northern Limit Line' (2015). A film about a brief 2002 naval battle between North and South Korea. I liked it and its on Netflix.

Hey there, everyone! I have another history question for you! So I was over at an Elder Scrolls videogame forum just now when someone was saying they were trying to find their character a drink other than mead or other alcohol. The Elder Scrolls series is set in what's basically your...

I mean reasonable limit on a person's wealth. The limit I believe should be around 50 million more than an enough for a single person. The rest of the money the should be confiscated by the government to use for the public good. I mean look at the Justin Bieber for an example he has over 100...

This question has been bothering me for some time. Let us imagine two humans from the .... sapiens species. One of them living in 2010 and one at the very beginning of the specie's history. It is very clear that the modern human has significantly more factual knowledge, whereas the human from...

I visited Poland last week and during my time there visited the Auschwitz-Birkenau camps. I won’t bore the group with my experience, other than to state that I feel everyone should go there once in their lives. Once was enough for me. I got to talk with one of the guides, during the course of...
