  • Exactly. For example Thebes in beotia was founded by cadmus of tyre. Who in the legend introduced the alphabet.

    In fact as long as mythology is concerened you shouldnt use greek mithology to compare with other native european mithologies because it is heavily influenced by semitic and other middle eastern myths. Despite interpretatio graeca being the common framework for a long time. If anything classical greek mithology is more middle eastern than persian mythology.

    One may claim that legaly european civil law originates from the bizantine theodosian code. But it is a medieval inovation. both the code and the way it was aplied bear little to either greek or roman legal and administrative traditions. Wich again are more similar to middle eastern traditions like islamic law. In fact in the few cases were ancient roman forms have been preserved like in the spanish fueros it is because of arabic influence. Other than that european legal tradition including democratic ideas is much more heavily influenced by salic law than by grecoroman forms.

    The iran one is ww1 and 2. The british invaded iran and cofiscated grain. In the 19th century irans population was equivalent to the otoman empire. That is turkey +iraq +the levant +some of the balkans. Now iys about half. Similar to what hapoen to irland (the ratio of its populayion to nearby countries halved). So somewhete between 6 and 13 million people died(half of iranians). But because there is less data i jave argued with genocide denialists even on hexbear.





  • This but unironically. In medieval total war 2 everythinh except for things like elephants had 1 hitpoint. And a certain chance to recive damage based on atack and defence values. So if the model was hit it died. And it looked much cooler. Contrast that with modern total war games like warhammer where there are health bars. a cavalary charge would send some dudes flying 20mm into the air and after bouncing several times they get up and walk back. Arrows and misiles also work in wierd ways. With the unit loosing sometimes half of its health before anybody dies.
