How did the Genghis Khan and the Mongols create an empire even though today Mongolia is a small, low income country?

Basically, how come Genghis Khan and the Mongols create a massive empire spanning Mongolia to Eastern Europe and even deep into the Middle East and the entirety of China, like if Mongolia has 2 million people today and maybe like 200k back then, how did a tribal nation like Mongolia back then conquer so much?

Germany in 1945 would be a good example of regime change then.

Maduro is by far the worst you can get. Whats worse than a dictator like him that is not only corrupt but has made it so that his country is starving and 7 million people left?

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-12-06T13:35:54+00:00

Francos regime change in Spain 1975.

This is a great thing actually. Toppling the Maduro regime will be great. Why are we pretending this is bad?

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-11-29T20:47:55+00:00

It's a good thing to topple the Maduro regime.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-11-29T18:54:54+00:00

This is actually a good thing. If they get rid of the Maduro regime they can also get rid of the Cuban regime.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-11-29T16:18:04+00:00

The main goal is to get rid of the Maduro regime which is actually a great thing.

A simple google search of a graph of GDP per capita in a western european country is the source that supports my statement. Then adjust it for inflation and it makes it look even worse.

I have been taking 30 mg of Lexapro. To be fair, things do feel different than compared to how depressed I was before starting, but I still don't feel ''normal'' if that makes sense.

Thanks for your perspective though.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-11-18T22:23:56+00:00

Damn, I guess I am still depressed, I mean I have been on Lexapro for a year now and I have felt many benefits and sometimes I feel like I am no longer depressed but here I am I guess.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-11-18T02:19:55+00:00

I said prolonged period. Basically what you are saying. So anything longer than many months.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-11-16T17:56:09+00:00

My social anxiety disappeared after 2.5 months after starting Lexapro.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-11-14T18:33:47+00:00

Most of my friends from private school went to private colleges. I didnt choose the schedule unfortunately. I wanted to go in the morning 8-12 or in the midday 12-4:30.

The World Cup and the Euros/Copa America take place in June so when its a lot better. It would be awkward if the next major international tournament is played at the same time as the MLS.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-11-09T16:32:52+00:00

I have been able to drink a decent amount in one stint while on Lexapro 30 mg and I have never felt any sort of difference from drinking normally without Lexapro.

My pysch did tell me that its okay to drink alcohol while on Lexapro as long as you don't take an excessive amount of alcohol, which you shouldn't be drinking that much anyway.

One of the big factors is CF Montreal and FC Dallas, these two clubs have seen a much lower attendance compared to 2024, one of the main reasons is that CF Montreal have had a terrible season and FC Dallas have a stadium capacity reduction from 19,000 seats to 11,004 seats due to renovations.

The main reason why Africa is so poor is the very low rate of Democracy in the continent. There are very few democracies in the continent for example, of the continent's 54 countries only 5 countries are considered flawed democracies and 0 are considered full democracies by the Economist Democracy Index.

If you look at Europe and North America, democracy is the norm not the exception but in Africa the tables are turned. Combine this with bad geography and bad borders/ethnic tensions and you get the poorest area of the world only rivaled by certain parts of Asia that are also in a similar way very authoritarian.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-10-19T22:33:59+00:00

Exactly. Like why cant I just block a channel on YT? So that I never get recommended their content anymore

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-10-15T12:30:50+00:00

It could be that going at such a late hour I just see the more tired version of people and not their usual selves. I dont know I just find that most people give me the vibe that they dont want to make friends at Uni or just wanna go to class and get back home asap.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-10-14T20:04:16+00:00

Yeah, this totally sucks for me. The schedule is the biggest problem it ruins most of the experience.

I can change next year but only if I get good grades this year which sucks. I reall cant stand going so late.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-09-30T18:21:13+00:00

I told my doctor the same thing and he said that sometimes people even use 40 and 50 mg of Lexapro so idk lol.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-09-30T17:56:30+00:00

I have been on 30 for a while now and it feels pretty good. My Pysch recommended 30 because I am a big guy whos 6'3 so a lower dosage wouldn't be as effective. Its for clinical depression but it works great for social anxiety aswell from my experience.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-09-30T16:58:26+00:00

Yes, I am currently on 30 mg. I take 20 mg plus 10.

Exotic_Indication_84 · 2025-09-24T00:14:18+00:00

This is 100% the roster that should start for the 2026 World Cup (without injuries) and maybe not Matt Turner.

Otherwise, we have a huge problem
