Only difference is they probably didn't have any written word.

I think the issue is that we really don’t know much about how the battles were fought. Kings would inscribe that they won this battle and drove out that enemy but that’s it.

The only thing we really have in any sort of detail is the Iliad, which has a lot of really interesting details but you can’t get a picture of warfare from it. The earliest detailed historical records of battles are Herodotus which is 500-700 years later.

No brain dummy

>semitic
Judah and Israel were founded by Germanic warrior tribes

The only difference between Sumeria and those settlements is that more people reproduced and more people showed up. Sumeria was just a small settlement that grew larger by surviving a bit longer and being where people might find it
Also the Indus Valley Civilization I believe predates Sumeria and was quite sprawling

Sumerian is a language isolate.
Babylon and Akkad were Semitic.

Yeah I could definitely see that being an issue. I know we have some depictions of battles in Egyptian reliefs, but it’s not very descriptive and it’s usually them routing an army rather than engaging in battle.

Nouri is also a member of a terrorist organisation called the Dawa party that's been trying to infiltrate and destroy Iraq through the entirety of Saddam's reign and orchestrated alot of bombings.

To be fair, most Prince of Persia games are a mix between Arabic and Indian influence.
More akin to the Disney Aladdin than anything Persian.

Though a lot of typically Arabic stuff does have its origin in Persia.

Persia became islamic in 7th c., and not completely. 7th c. is not middle ages by european standard.

He's mocking your reliance on shaky evidence that your race is superior for something ancient unrelated people did

>everywhere only says 7500Bc ish
Modern humans are only around 12k years old, so seeing cities like that just boggles my mind.

>Persia became islamic in 7th c., and not completely
C'mon, dude, magi were still around after initial conquest. The Middle East for a long time harbored many infidels.

>7th c. is not middle ages by european standard.

Actually, European middle ages happen ~500-1500. Not that European eras hold any meaning outside of Europe other than a time reference.

The Prince of Persia games are set mostly in the Arabian Nights storybook version of Persia. It's kind of like what the legend of King Arthur is to real medieval England. It draws from ancient folklore, but it's romanticised as hell, there's a thin coat of Islam on top of it to make it palatable to contemporary audiences, who didn't want to blaspheme against Allah with all that pagan shit.
There's no real time period, or even an exact region that Prince of Persia would correspond to, but it's still obviously Arab in the same way that Baldur's Gate is obviously European.

>Modern humans are only around 12k years old

1001 Nights is great, by the way.
The framing story is that a king gets savagely cucked by his wife's black slave, and goes for a walk to wallow in despair. He comes across a sleeping djinn, whose wife forces him to fuck her, threatening to wake up her djinn husband and scream rape to get him to kill the king if he doesn't obey. The king realizes that thots are gonna thot, and decides that the only way he can avoid getting cucked again is to marry a new woman each day, and execute her the next morning.
He does exactly that for some time, and the realm starts to run low on girls, but then his vizier's genius daughter concocts a plot to string him along with bedtime stories that end on a cliffhanger right when the sun rises, forcing the king to stay the execution for one day at a time. The book mostly consists of the stories she tells, which often segue into characters in them telling their own stories to each other.

Yes, the final quarter or so of the game is set in Sumer. Very beautiful art from the guys who made Castlevania LoS

I don't think there was that big of a gap. Sumerian cities started getting big around 3500-3000 BC, and Egyptian pyramids were being built around 2500 BC.

maybe you just have low wisdom

The alternative was literally Satan

Is it just because of my shitty American education or is Mesopotamian history severely undertaught in schools?

Seriously, your average person at least knows a tiny bit about the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians, but I doubt they would have even heard of the Akkadians or Sumerians

A bunch of societies in what is now the USA also went into decline, like the Mississippians. At the time a lot of native american cultures weren't living in the small forest villages or clusters of tipis that we picture now, there were several fairly large cities for the time not just in mesoamerica. Tribes along the Eastern seaboard were chopping so much wood it had a climatic impact that scientists today can see in soil samples and shit.

When you have no viable countermeasures against natural disasters, plagues, the mass migrations that result from them etc. those act as a reset button on civilization.

Those resets are freaky. Bronze Age Collapse. Fall of the western Roman Empire. Just a few decades and the entire systems that just everything going are just gone.

To be fair, thousands of years ago women used to be more masculine and men more feminine compared to modern ages.

It's not advisable to teach human civilization originating on the home turf of the evil enemy nation of Iran.

Better to teach it being Egypt -> Greece -> Rome -> Western Europe.

If you haven't heard of Sumer, you did go to a shit school.

Normal western curriculum starts off with Sumer as the first attested civilisation, covers Akkadians, Babylon and cuts off with Persians to go through acncient Egypt.
There was this Indus Valley civilisation that disappeared, and Chinese.
Only after that we started Minoans, Greeks and all that jazz.

There have been many, many civilisations across the recorded 10,000 year time period. It's unrealistic to cover them all in basic schooling.
If you want to learn about them, you're free to do it yourself. Schools have enough shit on the curriculum to cover already.

so you have to come here?

Did anyone ever get to drink that mummy sewage liquid after they dug up the grave?

lol Mesopogaymia

I'm European, and Mesopotamia was also kind of glossed over as well.
I think the problem is that they go through history chronologically in school, meaning they start out with the Sumerians. That really isn't the most easily accessible period of history, given how far removed it is from our societies, and you need to be somewhat mature to appreciate it. So realistically, junior high school kids grudgingly learn about the Sumerians for a couple of weeks, and then it's dropped and forgotten and never revisited.

Choose is a modern-era notion. The king was evident back then, same as the concept of kingship itself was evident. Saying that a group of people can be lead or determined by means other than kingship would be like saying that you and I aren't real. Just pretentious nonsense to these people. And they'd be right.

When one understands this, one understands that kings never really went away at all. But that's a bit much for small brains.

There is a very interesting theory that cities and civilisations started about 14,000 to 20,000 years earlier, before Egyptians or mesopatamia.

There is a HUGE meteor crater on Greenland that is estimated to have been made 14,000 years ago. Right around when many forms of megafauna also started to go extinct. So the theory goes the fuckhuge meteor basically caused a global apocalypse, killed many species, and wiped humans back to the Stone age for a while.

Now I'm not saying they had flying cars and skyscrapers, that shit is ridiculous, but they likely had mass agriculture, big cities, and even seafaring.

No, the crater was discovered only recently and there has not been any testing done because it's currently under a glacier. It just fits current timelines of civilisation really well, and the extinction of megafauna.

The only accesible and relevant Bronze Age lore and worldbuilding are found in the Bible, but making fun fiction and video games out of that setting is out of the question. Because Christians are either casuals who doesn't care about games and fiction or humourless, onerous busy-bodies who can't stand any deviation from their canonical Biblical interpretation, even if said interpretation are not heretical.

>there has not been any testing done because it's currently under a glacier
You say that as if they're waiting for it to melt before studying it.

Such an event would also have melted Greenland's glaciers on a significant level, enough to raise sea level by 10+ meters globally. So, not only is the sky black and raining fire and choking entire species to death, but your coastal city is now under the fucking ocean.

>Do you really wanna hear your neighbours fuck at night?

There's like 2-3 Neolithic citybuilders and 1 bronze age egypt one coming ut this year or next.

There's a lot of archaeological evidence and material that's allowed a picture to be put together, despite the limitations. The biggest problem is until 1000-900AD or so you have no cavalry whatsoever. Horses could be ridden but were small and bony enough that you wouldn't be able to ride them in war, and they had some kind of a negative reputation. In the Amara letters or some other findings a guy tells his king when greeting/visiting this bigger king "Ride in a chariot. If you can't ride in a chariot ride a donkey. If you can't do that, walk.

Inbreeding and islam.

>there's a thin coat of Islam on top of it to make it palatable to contemporary audiences, who didn't want to blaspheme against Allah with all that pagan shit.

A thin coat? Man, this shit is fucking DREDGED in Islam. Thanks to how many times it is used in the book when something bad happens, if something fucks up for me I'll say "There is no might and there is no majesty besides Allah, the Glorious, the Great!" It's just fucking imprinted itself onto my brain through repetion.

Not only the framing story, but there are so many of the stories and stories within stories about dumb thots. The first two stories of the brothers in the Barber's Tale of Himself about never trusting a woman, the Fisherman and the Jinni with the cursed king's wife cucking him with a black slave, both of whom are slain messily for it, Chanticleer's advice on how to control an unruly wife.

It's an actual set of plastic tits. Maybe actually silicone or rubber. But it's just separate thing he wears on his chest, puts a bra over it and then airbrushes the seam.

That's actually really interesting to think about

Same thing happens to all of us. The chinese used to be great, and no they are soulless wretches. We anglos used to be great, but no were weak-willed pussies.
Total degeneration seems inevitable. Who knows how long it takes to bounce back.

The other problem is that from my experience at least there's a gap in material for Babylonia from Hammurabi or thereabouts until Neo-Assyria/Neo-babylonia in the early Iron age. If I recall right the Amorite Hammurai era Babylonians seem to predate the Mitanni revolution in warfare which introduced the Mariyannu (basically 'knight') charioteer with scale armor. And clearly predates the emergence of the sword and shield 'revolution' in warfare argued by some who deal in the bronze age collapse (shield, javelin and sword infantry - IE the Sea people, ushured in an end to the predominance of the chariot).

I remember finding a book that covered a whole range of Muslim Indian arms and armor and as good as it was, it was surreal how every chapter started with a blank page with one such mantra. And yeah, I get a kick out of how 1001 nights introductory story is literally /r9k/ blacked.com posting. And then the fucking Djinn the two sultans meet LITERALLY HAS A ONEITIS WAIFU.

And literally a waifu who cuckolded the Djinn something like 523 times.

Mongols screwed things up real good for them.

His campaign at its core was "I´m successful so I know what I'm doing"
He has charisma , but is less about the person he is and more the kind of person he represents, back in the 80s he represented wealth, success and power. All the things the common folk seek.
Combine that with his weirdly simplistic message, Notice how he talks like an idiot but keeps what he wants to say very clear to the people he talks to "Im the best", "there is nobody better at ________ that me", "Fake news". So even dumb people or people that aren't paying attention to what he is saying get the message.

So now that I think about it 1001 nights is a 200 year old netorare story. Assuming the French or british guy who translated it wasn't making that part up, it's a +1000 year old netorare story.

Since this pic isn't translated, it's depicting Mesopotamia from Sumer down to the aformentioend Amorites. Sadly it's not really in chronological roder. I can say with relative certainty any with fuzzy/fleecy clothing are Sumerian, #5 is Amorite-babylonian, 14 are the Gutian highlanders.

In this pic 1-3 are Hittite/Anatolian
4 is the Mitanni Mariyannu style armor, but could be any number of peoples
5-6 are Canaanites
7-12 are Mycenaean.

Gacha shit does not count.

Based self-aware Christian, hope you understand that every other denomination (including major social and political, cultural movements etc.) is exactly the same. Batman fandom has the same problem for instance.

They had some good philosophy, engineering and a great deal of myth. They created a lot of art and all sorts of good stuff.
Now I don't know what they are. Not even that parasite that rips out a fishes tongue and then burrows into the wound and takes the tongue's place is as soulless and pointlessly cruel as the average chinaman.

The people who start great civilisations are not those that end them. "Arabs" are a novel species of weak, failed yeastmen. They have reduced themselves to pure life, with no reason to live. See chinkroaches. The west is fast going this way as well. Yet the fire lives on....

Assassins Creed game when?

Correct me if I am not remembering it right but I don't really even recall the slightest veneer of Islam in the Prince of Persia Games. In fact the only mention of god/faith I really recall (excluding 2008 since that was literally Zoroastrianism 1:1) is in the movie where the Prince's brother says the prince's warnings are pagan nonsense. That it's always set with Babylon and not Baghdad should say it all, really.

Now 1001 nights yeah that shit is Islam as fuck.

>Who knows how long it takes to bounce back.
When the last person alive before the fall of civilization dies, then humanity will rise back up without our taint.

The arabs were never respected, Persians, Egyptians (Coptic and other subgroups) and Mesopatamians were their own peoples comlpetely independent from Arabs. Then those people exhausted themselves through centuries of constant warfare with each other, pushing their advanced civilizations to the brink of ruin with their continued fighting and Mohammad at the time united his bandit subhuman tribes after robbing enough jew caravans to fund his invasions and rolled over the weakened superpowers. Egypt at that time was already subjugated almost entirely by the Romans and the Romans themselves among with Persians and Greeks were in no shape to fight them off. Muslim invasions happened, now everyone in those places has shitskin genes because mudslimes slaughtered all the men or turned them into slaves or eunuchs and captured millions of women to rape them and make more soldiers out of their children.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman–Persian_Wars
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Muslim_conquests

Those people that created those civliizations exist today only in memory, not even a shred of their intelligence or genetics has been passed down. It's why mediterranea and Egypt, Africa and Arabian peninsula are shitholes and forever will remain shitholes. Arabs.

They're the only group that has remained genetically unchanged for the past 1600 years.
Granted, they're pretty much a fading minority.

Yes, I definitely was exaggerating, some remnants of those people exist, but as you've said it is a fading minority, dispossessed after a millenia of subjugation and extermination. There's no way they will ever make a difference now.

this date is already beginning to be pushed back with recent findings. British archaeologists in Jordan found a site that had remains of bread that were 5000 years older than the prior earliest known instances of it, back to around 12,000 bce

Denominations are fun as long as it's not counter-gospel heresy. Until actual factional violence break out or partisan bickering becomes so bad the Gospel itself is on the verge of being corrupted in the minds of believers. Then it's just tragic, but of all the things people have fought each other over, the understanding of man's place in the universe isn't too bad of a cause, followed by the pursuit of human welfare.

Wrong. Arabs hardly had a genetic impact after the conquests. The invasion = rapebaby belief is a meme. "Arab" isn't a single ethnicity but a pan-ethnicity like Hispanic.Those conquered people adopted the new language and their culture changed but they still descended from their ancient ancestors.

Its a given that warlords and some tribal leaders /city state 'governors' would control the foodstuffs. All sources of power are under contention, and often they came under the control of one man and his subordinates. That is not to say that 'plantation' owners did not have power nor a high place in society, or that they could not have become a king (or rather, their descendants) but saying that is the only way to kingship is, in my view, wrong.

Dominions 5, it's awesome

The universe was created in 4004 BC.

Modern scientific opinion says modern humans evolved around 200,000 years ago.

However recorded history doesn't go back farther than 2000-3000BC

So for 195,000 years modern humans didn't record anything....

Then all the sudden they started building major civilizations and recording?

Those older dates for things come from radiometric dating.

Radiometric dating is the only thing they base old dates off of, and they can't even preform radiometric dating on anything but radioactive substances, which they usually find somewhere near a site, and then date the site by that.

The global flood happened in 2348 BC, the first major civilizations that appeared after that were Egypt (AKA Mizraim, son of Ham), Canaan (another son of Ham), Mesopotamia, Nubia, etc.

Records don't last forever. Some day, even the bible will be forgotten. The last copies will crumble to dust and no-one will ever know when the universe was really created or who made it.

Maybe because it fucking sucks

The vast majority of the world's religious population believes in an Abrahamic religion and the chronologies in Genesis tell you the universe was created in 4004 BC, the global flood happened in 2348 BC, and the Tower of Babel event happened in 2242 BC

Recorded history doesn't go farther back than about 2000 BC, even according to atheist scholars.

Most of the ancient civilizations had names deriving from sons of Noah.

Except they did.

The popular conception of 'civilization started in 4000 BC' is retarded, but that does not mean that it was aliens, god, or a previous civilization's people that created all of these out lier settlements.

Only boomers remember the bronze age. kys gramps

The impact is minor. For example, the majority of Magrebi Arabs have E haplogroup which Peninsula Arabs don't have. The closest overlap are the Egyptians but that's mostly because of all the Bedouins living there.

Take a look at the image here:
quora.com/Are-Assyrian-people-genetically-closer-to-Greeks-and-Armenians-than-they-are-to-Arabs

Actually the reason it doesn't go further back is because the first thing the jews did when they started their religion was to begin a purge of everything from before them, to establish themselves as the true first, the true chosen, so that no-one could ever discredit them.
Not a lot of people know this, so keep it to yourself.
