They also accused the British of hypocrisy through the other methods of unfree labor relating to peonage. only in the 1850s and the massive territorial gains did free-soilers become more of a going concern and they were still mostly shut out of the executive until 1860 in which the southern politicians had an extremely emotional shitfit despite the fact that even northern governments were entirely willing to compromise on slavery

Pener Kropoopkin posted:The war was inevitable because of the mutually antagonistic interests of slavers and free labor. Differences in culture and religion were already non-issues because of semi-autonomy afforded to the states, and the disestablishmentarianism cemented in the constitution. Saying a war was inevitable because the North and South were just so different is moronic. Which may again have led to broader insurrection. Selling out your comrades to feel good about your vanguard party rep has accomplished exactly gently caress-all in comparison.

So yeah a lot of Turks are basically Greeks who converted to Islam and learned Turkish. Similarly English people are as much Celt as anything and just assimilated into Anglo Saxon culture when those guys migrated to/conquered England.

Oh I knew they didn't for the most part give that much of a poo poo about skin color. (They did believe though that based on where you were born climatically might lead to one accepting or not accepting civilization.). But I just could have sworn reading that by the 2nd century they were not getting most of their recruits from Italia. Also, yeah about the Spartans and Persia and Persia supporting various faction in Greece in general, really if the Persians had not been distracted by a revolt in Egypt, I wonder if Philip of Macedon would have actually been victorious if Persia had been able to send their full support to the anti Macedonian forces. Also Septimus Sevarus's father at least was half Libyan Berber origin. So he actually was part African. Also the fresco of Septimus Servus certainly suggests a man of dark complexion. I find it rather interesting how in many ways his policies would lead to the crisis of the third century, although that wouldn't be clear for two decades.
