Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Fuck that! The video is LXII:XLI.
Ain't nobody got time for that!
Then the mongols arrived and humbled them.
The whole idea of the "dark ages" has been debunked.
The Dark Ages was a lie the Renaissance cooked up for themselves and is mostly rejected by modern scholars. For example, belief in witchcraft was declared heretical by the Medieval Catholic church, while witch burnings were a constant in the Renaissance
In America, it is commonly easier to just think of the Middle and Near East as backwards and in-fighting nations because we tend to get very shortsighted about history and focus on recent history. Western culture is full of that. BUT I'm sure it would be true, vice versa, if the roles were reversed. That's how humans like to roll.
Im glad that they were "enlightened" so many years ago. Hows that working out now? Are stonings enlightened?
See in history class they taught us these people were doing these things, hereβs there timeline.. these other people were doing these other things so hereβs there other timeline
I like it when itβs all put into perspective like these people were doing this while these other people were doing this, hereβs one timeline of everyone

Makes me think of us still using imperial measurements when the majority of the world uses metric.
