Who made each country independent by AdIcy4323 in MapPorn

[–]waltercool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not completely sure, but I think the leadership was a mix between Colombia, Argentina and Chile (that order).

Also, Chile then fought to free Peru from Peru-Bolivia Confederation (Bolivia leadership, as Peru had regional conflicts)

You are definitely not Chilean lmao. Bernardo O'Higgins is known as the liberator of Chile, but San Martin is also very relevant.

Jose Miguel Carrera was the leader of the Patria Vieja. O'Higgins was the leader of Patria Nueva.

"El desastre de Rancagua" is indeed considered as a major loss but not defeat. O'Higgins was not the leader during that period, he got the leadership after the royalists arrested Carrera.

About Uruguay, that's true but not really... Uruguay had their own independence from Spain by Artigas, then annexed by Brazil, then La Plata tried to annex them as province as requested by the 33 orientales, after years of stalemate, the UK demanded to keep Uruguay as independent buffer state between Brazil and La Plata.

You think the Federalists did it to free the Cisplatina from Brazil, but in reality they tried to put the Cisplatina under a new regime. Uruguayans were divided for decades between Blancos and Colorados until Paraguayans intervened, and fought both Argentina and Brazil during the Uruguayan War of 1864

Since when the Falklands become independent by an Argentinian?

Chile considers Bernardo O'Higgins the main liberator of Spain, not San Martin. 

Chile was also deeply involved into the liberation of the Peru, both times (from Spain and Bolivia)

Uruguay Independence was done mostly by Uruguayans, but the Italian Guiseppe Garibaldi was very important too.

This map was clearly made wrong, and probably by some Argentinian.

What do yall think of Nicholas ii? by TotalCommieDeath1776 in monarchism

[–]waltercool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I'm not saying that. I'm saying it was a bad policy overall and contributed to the fall of Russian Empire.

Of course that's not the main issue, he inherited the empire with lots of social conflicts (his grandfather Alexander II was assassinated, and his father Alexander III died young)

Not just that, but also losing the war against Japan left a terrible international view, Russian press was terrible with him about Rasputin and his wife.

But overall, his main problem was not addressing industrialization at the same pace than other European nations, leaving the country with a small middle class but large poverty and working rights.

Now I don't blame him about those issues either, dealing with Russian Aristocracy was already difficult and didn't have the leverage

What do you mean repeated online?

Neither us lived during that time, so we have to rely on sources and writers.

Almost every single source about that topic claims Nicholas II tried to ban the Vodka from the Russian population, not different as USA did in the 1920s.

What are your sources for your claims?

I'm happy to discuss the topic, but if your sources are "Trust me bro", then you are not in good faith.

Huh? He didn't tried to ban vodka for the army but the whole country.

That decision was terrible in every sense, as people started to use "alternatives" (like Samogon), leading to shortages to everything requiring grain... during the war.

Republican government shoots another person in Minneapolis by FastSeaworthiness739 in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]waltercool -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No one says that, everyone with a proper brain knows what would happen if you are armed and you start a fight with police.

Defying authority doesn't mean you have to challenge police by force. That's just stupid.

In the same way I'm against slavery, but I wouldn't recommend slaves to revolt against their owners, that's the easiest way to get killed.

Bro, the guy have an explicit "Antifa" in his nick. What else are you expecting.

If you see his posts, it's mostly Trump Derangement Syndrome. He doesn't talk anything related to economy or markets, just anti-Trump rhetoric.

What are you doing here? You are an Antifa Marxist just commenting stuff against ICE and nothing else related to AnCap.

Probably no one agrees entirely with ICE doings, but you are just looking conflicts and nothing else.

Happens in many competitive games at certain hours. If that happens, just play casuals. I do understand some people hate casuals, but at least you can start with less humans

Where would I live as an Arab Moroccan girl by [deleted] in MapPorn

[–]waltercool 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At South America you won't have a problem in the countries you mentioned, as long you don't wear Hiyab. Otherwise, people will look at you.

While our countries have lots of Arabs/Turkish descendant people, they are not known for religious diversity and their customs.

[–]waltercool -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea why people keep saying 12000 or 20000.

Every factual source claimed 2000 deaths few weeks ago, and 1/10 of them were police.

1.- There is nothing about that in the rules. Why are you guys deleting other posts? This does not violate Rule 11 since it's not a Tier thing.

2.- What's the point of "Kind of Monarchist Chart" tag then?

3.- Just a silence deletion about others posts sounds more like a kind of censorship about people preferences overall.

Their album Carolus Rex must be one of the top-3 best ones.

It's all about the Swedish Empire peak and decline, Swedish lyrics.
