    7:00 To be fair, these uniforms where desined with trenches in mind so that the peeking soldiers would be less obvious. Hence why the color chosen is called horizon blue.

  • @tristanmitchell1242
    @tristanmitchell1242 Рік тому +7

    You know, the french uniforms were blue, and the british red and so on, instead of camo for a reason. Camo is useful in MODERN war, where small groups seek to avoid notice while targetting other small groups. In the time when tose uniforms were designed, the soldiers literally stood in a great big line, snot each other, and then charged with bayonets. The colors were designed to be distictive so to avoid friendly fire.

    • @kortexounet
      @kortexounet Рік тому

      The truth behind that horizon blue : German were the main red dye maker, we couldn't produce red pants anymore, had to switch uniforms, we had lots of blue dye and it was France historical colour. Slap an excuse with the skyline and here you go into the no man's land

    On the matter of Tolkien and Lewis: it's only allegory if one thing _represents_ another - otherwise "Eru Illuvatar is God" would similarly contradict Tolkien's stated view on allegory. Eru Illuvatar doesn't _represent_ God, he _is_ God - we're just exploring his actions in a fictional context.
    Likewise, Aslan doesn't _represent_ Jesus; he _is_ Jesus - Lewis is just asking the question "what would Jesus do in this fictional scenario?"
    On a related note, I think Abraham Lincoln in _Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter_ might be an allegory for Abraham Lincoln from United States history

    Closest thing to Rome is probably the EU.
    For one it holds much of the landmass. It also upholds the ability for foreigners to gain citizenship. So long as they pay deference to the ruler and taxes to the state.
    There are also mighty feats of civil engineering that bind together distant places to integrate them.
    For example Denmark is being connected to Germany via a tunnel under the Baltic Sea to create a shortcut for trade that saves hours both ways. At the same time the Baltic states are getting connected to the EU rail network, with plans to also dig a tunnel from Estonia to Finland.
    So in a decade it may become possible to run a train from Sweden to Finland across mainland Europe through every nation that touches the Baltic. Except Russia.
    For reasons that should be obvious.

    The full story of how Montezuma received Cortez is pretty wild. Instead of seeing Cortez as a god as rumoured, it was actually Montezuma who was said by his enemy tribes to be a malevolent inhuman god-like emperor. And Montezuma wanted Cortez to not choose sides or preferably choose his side, so he straight up lifted his robes and said, "Check, man, I'm human, like you."
    Also the Aztecs had oral tradition that said they came from lands from their east before settling in the valley so when Cortez said "We came from thataway," Montezuma was like, "Eyyyyy brother!"

    And the funny thing is, Tolkien was also christian, but recognized that monotheism doesn't work so well in fantasy. But he still created a highest god. Which means Gandalf is the equivalent of an archangel and the fight against the balrog is pretty much a fight against a fallen angel. Oh, and Sauron is also one. And his former master Melkor/Morgoth is pretty much some uber archangel who took part in the actual work involved with creation.

    I would advise people who really don’t like writing, but do like history (not just wwi and wwii) to not take an AP history course. You may think the writing portion will be easy if you know everything. But if you are someone who likes going into detail, it’s going to hurt your hand, and your probably not gonna be able to finish writing everything you want to say.
