    I don’t think they lost so much as immigrated to the Americas and help create the us intelligence agencies and helm the U.N. The USA has always been Nazis. This is the 4th Reich.

















  • I live in constant pain because of exposure to chemicals, physical, and mental trauma that the USG is just starting to recognize through the department of veterans affairs. I lay awake each night wishing that I would die and not wake up tomorrow because it will just be more pain. Or I think that I deserve the pain; it is my penance for commiting an uncountable amount of suffering on the world in exchange for a bit of cash. I feel like I sold my soul to the devil but all I received in return is the understanding that everything will get progressively worse for the vast majority of the people on this planet.


  • Basilla Irene is my favorite part of this. Einhard made up some shit about Charlemagne visiting Constantinople because Irene asked him to marry her. The letters probably did not exist and Charlemagne certainly didn’t travel that far east. Irene ended up being couped by her nephews (or cousins, I’m still away from my library) to restore a man on the Roman throne. Just around that time, because the pope saw the Roman throne as technically vacant, and his position as weak in relation to the surrounding Italian principalities,he in invited Charlemagne to Rome under false pretenses and tricked him into a ceremony where he was crowned Holy Roman Emperor. This didn’t change relations with the east however, the Ottomans becoming the sultan of Rum did that. Most of the “lost” knowledge came frome raids and trade with the Muslim world, notibly the reconquesta in Iberia (see the La Chanson de Roland for more).
