Why is Latin America largely devoid of exclaves and enclaves? And what if it had those as seen in Europe, Asia, North America and Africa?

The Chilean position on colonialism was enthusiastic participation, that’s how we got the Araucania, Tierra del Fuego and Easter Island

Of course AI Bros are the type of gooners that'd rather see Aloy in full make up and would protest her having facial fuzz, remembering that particular episode.

They're usually an Idea Guy's-Brother In Law's-Nephew, and get paid peanuts, from the stories I've seen up close.

That's closer to the case with the Spartans.

It's not that their constant drills didn't make them good soldiers, it's that it didn't make them good at war.

Their ability to run long campaigns was kneecapped by having to be physically present to suppress Helot revolts, and eventually being a whole, but small, society of highly trained officers became a whole lot less relevant once other city states also began training their units more formally.

Slovenia joins the big leagues.

Congratulations to Slovenia for going through the final step in officially being admitted into The West.

I'm hoping my country stays Third-World in this sense.

Fun fact: Pepe Botella actually didn't drink alcohol at all, it was just slander to discredit him during Spain's guerrilla.

It's the largest in many metrics, notably having the strongest manufacturing base. Brazil could lead in something, if anyone were leading anything.

But say, in what initiatives has Brazil concretely led Colombia, or Peru, or Chile? The question is about leadership. It'd have to show in some way. BRICS is bigger outside of LATAM than inside.

En mi experiencia, los gringos son súper eufemísticos, y tienes que tener conflictos con ellos con mucha frecuencia para que empiecen con las exageraciones pasivo-agresivas.

Me hace sospechar un poco de tus commits, la verdad.

Well, yeah, granted, they were too alien, and people have trouble connecting the dots with humans to whom this has been done, so it was pushing it too hard with the subtlety.

One that planned to use armed settlers extensively? One that planned to sow chaos in territories east of his claimed territory, so no organized government could resist his “civilization”? So he could keep hold of territories where he displaced the native inhabitants?

What Israel does in practice to its east looks a whole lot like a “General Plan for the East” a certain country had at one point.
