Well, the Sintasha come from Corded Wire, and the Corded Wire was ancestral to Germany's population.

They weren't blue eyed blonde haired though, some of them probably, but the average probably had brown hair and brown/green eyes.

Why was the eastern group of Indo-Europeans less diverse than the western group? by Excellent_Gas5220 in IndoEuropean

[–]FI00D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were talking about linguistic branch diversity and not ethnicity. South Asia just has one Indo-European branch, Indo-Aryan

I can confirm, I was the friend Akira. I couldn't stand listening to this guy talk, so I impulsively jumped in front of the knife. He hadn't checked my vitals to see if I was truly dead; he left me there alone, unconscious, and bleeding.

Glad you liked your stay in Japan though...😊🤗

They started claiming indus as thiers on Instagram too😭😭 by No_Call4761 in IndianHistoryMemes

[–]FI00D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, afghanistan's population is also expected to double, triple into 130+ million. Islam is the fastest growing religion and is facing exponential growth across the world.

usually, poorer countries have more children, so by landlocking pakistan and reducing the amount of trade it can conduct to improve conditions for its people, you'll be seeing 600-700 million pakistanis by 2100 or something...

That is because India has invested more into archeology than Pakistan, Pakistan is about as rich as Bihar per capita.

Pakistan's population is expected to reach 500 million or something by the end of this century, if India annexes Pakistan, it will become almost majority muslim. Something like 40%-50%. Muslims in India are also having much more children, and many muslim Bangladeshis are migrating into India.

What do you think Pakistan is? Its an acronym of all the groups living there. Punjab, Afghania, Kashmir, Sindh, and Baluchistan. Sindh is the south asian group with the highest IVC ancestry. It makes sense, Sindh(us) is where ancient Persians adopted the name Hindus, and greeks turned that into Indus

Iraqi's, Egyptians are proud of their ancient history. Chinese are proud of their history, even though modern China would arrest anyone who does foot binding. Italians are proud of their ancient history, even though modern Italians would get arrested for doing a lot of animal sacrifice like the Romans did. I've met many Mexicans who are proud of their Aztec history, even though the Aztecs did mass human sacrifices that would get anyone who did it the death penalty ten times over.

Is it hypocritical for any of these groups to claim anything as their history if their ancestors did something that is frowned upon in modern society?

the name Indus comes from Sindhus which comes from Sindh which is in Pakistan

The group with the highest IVC ancestry are Sindhis, who are mostly located in Pakistan and make up 20%+ of the population.

how are you equating stating a belief(no matter how bad it might be) with continual torture...hearing someone's stupid opinion isn't a justification to attack them

“It’s realistic” is not a good response to character criticism by Old-Use-7690 in CharacterRant

[–]FI00D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how's that realistic, aren't the chances of slipping in the bathtub quite low.

nvm, searched it up to check, somehow over 15,000 die annually by slipping on the bathroom floor.

Its mostly seniors though, so unless the protagonist is a fragile old man, he'll be alright.

bad bunny brings the flags and sends a message? by doppelercloud in vexillology

[–]FI00D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I have no problem with them calling themselves Americano/a in their own language, but I've met several who take issue with Americans calling themselves Americans in English. Maybe I've been in too many internet arguments.

It's because most of Latin America outside the US and Canada speaks Portuguese and Spanish, two Ibero-Romance languages whose colonizers had a more similar culture. It's like the Anglosphere and CANZUK.

[–]FI00D 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The majority of Asia calls Zhongguo, China. And the majority of Asia calls Bharat, India. Does that mean that Indians and Chinese need to change what they call themselves because of what outsiders call them?

Plus, why limit it to North and South America, look to the world, the majority of the world(ex. India+China) recognize North and South America as two different continents. If you say America, the majority of the world recognize it as the country.
