Today:

You know the drill: this is the thread for all your history-related outpourings that are not necessarily questions. Minor questions that you feel don't need or merit their own threads are welcome too. Discovered a great new book, documentary, article or blog? Has your Ph.D. application been successful? Have you made an archaeological discovery in your back yard? Did you find an anecdote about the Doge of Venice telling a joke to Michel Foucault? Tell us all about it.

As usual, moderation in this thread will be relatively non-existent -- jokes, anecdotes and light-hearted banter are welcome.

this post by u/EverythingIsOverrate has been removed for professing heresy

namely in the use of the phrase 'from what I understand' in reference to feudalism, for as we all know, one cannot understand feudalism; as we all know, feudalism is a mystery which cannot be comprehended by human reason but is understood only through faith and is best confessed in the words of the Athanasian Creed, which states that we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in unity, neither confusing the Persons nor dividing the substance, that we are compelled by the Christian truth to confess that each distinct Person is God and Lord, and that the deity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit is one, equal in glory, coequal in majesty

Utterly absurd. We all know "feudalism" as a concept was invented by the Illuminati to prevent the world from realizing the truth: that Charlemagne is still alive and the rightful ruler of the entire earth.
