any american psyoped into being pro russian is retarded especially if they were born before the fall of the soviets

>>220777820I dont hate the Russians but I wish we couldve somehow courted them into NATO against the Chinese after the fall of the USSR, instead they've maintained their own pseudo sphere of influence in central asia , the middle east, and Africa.

>>220776921The US is more like if you made Venice, but bigger because of the heavy emphasis on admiralty law. Before the empire almost all of Rome's naval presence was built by Egyptians, Phoenicians, and Greeks. There was no serious fixation on Rome during the time of Aristotle, but major Phoenician city states like Tyre, Byblos, Sidon, etc. functioned similarly to ancient versions of major mercantile states in the Mediterranean like Genoa, Pisa, Venice, and Florence. It's still hard to say the US resembles Carthaginian mercantile states since there wasn't much in the way of central authority, the US is more like if you added a constitution, private property, and admiralty law to the HRE then made it a maritime power because it really just is a collection of states tenuously strapped onto federal authority.
