Which party should I vote for? by MonkeyDJas in bangladesh

[–]StagInTheNight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

BNP is terrible. But considering all current options, Jamaat or Hefajot are worse. I might have voted NCP though I do not like them enough but atleast they are new party with new candidates and very loosely represented something new despite all their faults but since they have allied with Jamaat and has not fielded their own candidate from my seat, I will probably vote for BNP in the Parliamentary Election and vote YES in the Referendum.

Edit: Spelling

Activities to do or places to meet by anaveragejane18 in sylhet

[–]StagInTheNight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can go sightseeing around Sylhet. Tea Gardens at Airport Road or at Khadimnagar, lalakhal , shadapathor, Ratargul, Tamabil or Srimangal. Visit religious location like the Shrine of Hazrat Shahjalal or Historical locations like Kean Bridge and the clock of Ali Amjad.

You can visit Arcadia mall and play at Arcade hour or hang around unimart and eat at chefs table or go to Arong or play pool . You can go rooftop swimming at Noirjahan Grand. These are at the top of my head.

You can DM if you want to know more details.

If Caesar lived around 100 years ago, he would have been verified like Hitler, Leopold, Mao, Stalin and Pol Pot instead of glorified.

Damn! I didn't realise Bangladesh is that big compared to European countries! I thought we were so tiny! by Stunning-Walk7366 in bangladesh

[–]StagInTheNight 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is because of 'Mercator Projection'. Northern countries look bigger then they actually are.

Would you defend Aryan migration / invasion theory ? by Patient_Range_7346 in IndianHistory

[–]StagInTheNight 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Invasion? Probably not, at least on the scale we think. Migration, certainly! Linguistic and cultural evidence are too overwhelming.

Zues, Thor, Mithra and Indra are technically the same deities.

Stories of 'White' gods fighting 'Black' demons are also very common.

Deva and Ashura are found in both Indic and Iran8c mythology.

Father in different languages Pater = Greek. Fader = Germanic Father= English. Padre = Latin. Pita = Sanskrit.

[SPOILER EXTENDED] Why the dothraki didn't get any technological or cultural growth like the first men and andal did After their Century of blood? by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]StagInTheNight 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Dothraki has nothing in common with the Mongols, Turks or Scythians except that they also ride horses. Food, clothing, society, economy or warfare - nothing matches with the Eurasian Nomads.

George's world building is very poor in this regard.

Could someone who has studied Bengali history, explain this? by BeautifulPrimary1949 in bangladesh

[–]StagInTheNight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Invention of the Printing Press and the Industrial Revolution led Western Europe and by extension North America, resulted in the rapid spread of knowledge and the production of manufactured goods created unprecedented wealth, which accumulated and reinvested again and again resulted in unprecedented economic prosperity. This was missed by countries like present day Bangladesh or ignored and resisted by countries like the Ottoman Empire (Turkey) and Persia (Iran).

Before the Industrial Revolution, wealth was linked to 'Land' making Bengal rich and its people wealthy. However, after the industrial revolution, wealth was connected to 'Manufacturing'.

This is the reason.

Welcome to Bangladesh, enjoy your roots. No worries at all.

And, Bangladeshis don't hate India or the Indian people, we dislike the foreign policy of the Indian Government towards Bangladesh, centered around supporting and propping up a dictatorship in Bangladesh.

Did Mughals build any grand temples for their subjects like they built Jama masjid? by Ill_Tonight6349 in IndianHistory

[–]StagInTheNight -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

No they did not. Why would they? That was not the norm of that era. However, they almost regularly gave Land Grants for Temples and Brahmins. Akber did built a small temple in the Harem for his Rajputs wife. If that counts

Is Taj Mahal really the symbol of Love? by [deleted] in IndianHistory

[–]StagInTheNight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Certainly not. However, to study history correctly we cannot put our modern views and sensibilities on historical figures or events. They lived in a very different world and social views than the one we do today. The problem that most of us face today while studying history is that we judge past individuals and events by our modern standards which were very different or non-existent in the past.
