I’ve been noticing a pattern in Ukraine supporters in Europe in that many of them are actual closeted Nazis from Germany who hate Slavs and see Ukraine (or at least Galicia) as being of Germanic, whom they’d consider “Aryan”, and not Slavic stock.

The saddest Book Cover series in history... The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire is a monumental historical work by Edward Gibbon, published between 1776 and 1789, that traces the long collapse of the Roman Empire from its height in the 2nd century AD to the fall of Constantinople in 1453. Gibbon argued that the empire declined gradually due to a combination of internal weaknesses and external pressures, including political corruption, economic troubles, military overexpansion, reliance on mercenary forces, and invasions by Germanic and other groups. One of his most famous and controversial ideas was that the rise of Christianity shifted focus away from civic duty toward spiritual concerns, weakening traditional Roman institutions. The book is still widely read for its narrative style and scholarly influence, even though many of its interpretations have been revised by modern historians. #archaeohistories#
