Were they spared or were they killed like their Christian relatives?

Asking because I remember seeing someone (don't remember who, but IRRC he had a high/respected rank in an army) said that it was one of his finest campaigns. I looked at the battles on Wikipedia though and Napoleon outnumbered his opponents in almost every battle, sometimes by a ridiculous margin, so it doesn't seem that special. Can someone explain if it was actually impressive, or did Napoleon just win because he had a massive army compared to his opponents?

Until reasonably recently when new evidence came to light most people believed that the pyramids were built by slaves.

There must have been some conviction behind this because until the 90's in the UK at least it was taught as fact in schools. Having a look around though I can't see what the original justification or evidence for this comes from.

What setd it apart from Syria so to speak.

Were most British people there to colonize or work as indentured servants? Either way, what was life like for them in Barbados?

The topic of slave ownership by the founding fathers of the United States is, rightfully, a major source of contention in the retelling of their history. I understand you need to take individuals within the context of their time and culture, so I'm wondering about if there were any prominent slaveowners who were contemporaries to the founding fathers that did free a significant number of their slaves and how they were affected by that choice. Even just names for further research would be appreciated.

Did an East German escaping into West Berlin get West German citizenship. How did an East German get from West Berlin into the rest of West Germany? Did anyone escape from the GDR directly into West Germany (not Berlin)?

Throughout history Jewish people have been persecuted and stuff, but why? It's just another religion like Christianity or Islam, so why is it so commonly hated by people when it's all the same? Like, if they all believe in the same god, how come we don't hear of Christianity and Islam having the same level of hate? What makes Jewish people different in the eyes of others? Why isn't it tolerated as much as the other major religions?

Versailles, Brest-Litovsk, Guadalupe-Hidalgo, etc.

Why are major treaties so rarely signed in major cities?

I have a BA in Art History and I work in a museum with little students who come to visit. Whenever we see ivories, students of all ages are usually familiar with the concepts of poaching and protecting endangered species, so they ask about whether the ivories were "poached." My answer has always been that elephants haven't always been endangered, so if/when people hunted elephants back in the 700's, they weren't doing as much damage to the elephant population as hunters now.

It does make me wonder though, whether people like the Yombe people of Central Africa hunted elephants for their ivory? And what methods did they use, if so?

I just got a grant to write a senior thesis on the local history of a Mexican town (Yanga, Veracruz) and I'm wondering what the historians on here see as the best possible models for local history writing/scholarship and why. What makes certain local histories good and others mediocre?
