I was looking at a post from /r/de about the decreases in GDP a country would experience if their capital city were to disappear. Italy and Greece would be nothing without Rome and Athens. And England would suffer without London. The US without DC wouldn’t notice a difference.

Is there a historical reason for this? Or is it just coincidental - a common development of uncommon circumstance?

I hope this question isn't offensive to anyone and I don't mean for it to be. I'd like to know historically why that part of Bosnia has historically been Bosnian

I am trying to figure out the climate leading up to JFK's death.

I really want to buy a Florin from Medici time, is it possible to buy one?

If an artist sat down to draw something they saw in front of them, they would see shade, reflection of light, and that things that were closer to them appeared bigger. Why wouldn't they attempt to recreate that if they are already making an attempt at recreating color and shape? Even if they are drawing something they aren't looking at (i.e the crucifixion), they can apply those visual concepts to the art.

Hello,

I'm not too well versed on the Gracchi, and I've read that Tiberius Gracchus had the people impeach Octavius because Octavius was refusing to allow a vote to be held on Agrarian Reform. But why would Octavius allow a vote to be held on his impeachment? Something clearly illegal (afaik) and unacceptable.
