"Gyalyum and Tse undoubtedly had a strong homosocial bond, but given the differences in cultural context and sexual mores, it's impossible to say for sure that their relationship was sexual in nature. Suggestive phrases in private correspondence such as 'I love you, my lover, with whom alone I share my body' could easily have been early Bon Reformation expressions of spiritual attachment between a sovereign and her religious head..."

NewMars posted:Spaniards in the new world refused to eat a crop so associated with the natives and basically no one in Europe would eat them for a number of reasons. First of all was that they were strongly associated with a bloodthirsty heathen civilization. Second was their resemblance to nightshade and last was the fact that they grew underground. Okay, hold up: So do carrots, and I am pretty sure Europeans ate carrots and other root vegetables.

NewMars posted:I didn't say it made sense, just that it happened and was a reason given. Incidentally, they were also nicknamed "the devil's apples." Huh, fair enough. Guess if you already don't like something any excuse will do? Edit: Wait, why did carrots change color

I think it's interesting that a literal translation of "Tlatoani" is "speaker," which is also basically what "dictator" means.

C: Noble Elite - We don't have the most secure footing, here. Keeping the warrior nobility on board will help protect the nascent republic. C: Republicanism - That said, what is the point of all this if we don't make the republican ideal the center of political culture? C: Sortition - This should curb the ambitions of would-be tyrants in the aristocracy. A: Provincial Governments - Seems like the most efficient way to deal with constituent elements of the overall commonwealth.

zealouscub posted:I like how sortition is working, it's one of those crazy ideas I wish we had more records of. The "birthplace of democracy," ancient Athens, used sortition to select all its government officers (except, iirc, generals and admirals or something?), if you're looking for an example to read up on!
