Why didn’t Alexander colonize the advanced Iron Age Proto-Roman/Germanic/Celtic civilization in fertile western Europe instead of a poor shithole empires in West Asian desert? Is he retarded?
>>18361947Europe was mostly a shithole filled with nothing but blond haired apes
Too spiritually feminine for his tastes.
>>18361947>fertile western EuropeIt was a howling wilderness full of nothing.
>>18361947All those places were poor shitholes full of belligerent psychos. The East was rich and most of the people were completely demilitarized.
Why would Alexander want to conquer small townships and tribal peoples when he had the option of the most urbanised and wealthiest regions on Earth? He didn't even bother with the Native Anatolian tribes despite having a fair bit of urbanisation because it would be a massive fucking waste of time
Because west of Greece was shitholes and East was rich
>>18361947He was a huge persiaboo
>>18361947He married himself and his generals to the Scythians, who held all of northern Europe in their sway. Also it's easier dabbing on middle easterners once you knock off the Persians.
If Alexander lived in the time of peak of rome he probably would have went west.But at the time of his there was what? A few punic and greek cities, you can easily subdue this with diplomacy or attacking the original city which is what he did actually for the Phoenician cities, that's why he attacked Tyre so hard.
Only Italy and Carthage were properly civilized. Rest of western lands were never rich or populous compared to east even under Rome.
>>18361947Persia was Greece's greatest and most feared enemy, if nothing else there was far more glory to be won in conquering it than a bunch of northern tribes no one in Greece really cared about
>>18361950this didnt age well>>18362123>>18362257He was terrified of fierce blonde BVLLS swinging out of the trees and kidnapping monkeydonian boyim.
>>18362360geographically West Europe was destined for industrial greatness :)
>>18362887Hmm delicious blond sex slaves.You nords have had your chance. The tides will change once more soon and you will be on your knees begging for more again :9
Europe was illiterate forest tribes. Nothing there worth taking.
>>18361947It was outside the sotadic zone so what was the point? No brown dancing boys in those belgaec swamps
