I know the emperor tried to make all of the leaders of the crusade return any land formerly held by the byzantine empire back to him, and that some cities were returned to them, such as Nicaea, but was there any other significant land that was returned to the Byzantine empire?

A follow up question; did all cultures call this planet earth too? Or did they have other words to describe our planet?

Looking at art from the 3rd century onward until the renaissance period. Art technique in the West was less detailed.

Both offices held enormous powers, however were meant to be exercised only in case of extraordinary circumstances. While the Dictators had a term limit, a lot of times it was ignored, as in case of Julius Caesar. Reelection in Weimar was not limited however. The political powers of both offices led to their respective republics becoming de facto monarchies, one with Augustus and the other with Hitler as heads of state with absolute power. So I am interested, whether or not it is legit to say that Weimar Republic's collapse resembles the collapse of the Roman Republic? I do know that the office of the Dictator is not the only reason why Roman Republic collapsed and that the fall of it had started before Caesar was even born, but Caesar did contribute to its fall.

If anything, the "communist threat" there was much more real than in other South American countries that would eventually become military dictatorships, like Brazil and Argentina. Why did they stay a democracy?

bonus question: how much would they be worth? And is there market value higher then there theoretical museum value?

When did we stop cooking meat on a stick and transition to cooking on a skillet or grill? When did pots and pans start being a thing?

How did people cook before metal pots and pans? I've seen various documentaries about primitive people living out in the bush or in the Amazon rainforest and while they live in huts and basically hunter-gather, they all have modern metal cookware. I know those people must have aquired them through trade, but what did people do before modern cookware?

Hiya everyone, so in his 1991 book, The Boer War, Pakenham states that the Second Boer War (1899-1902) commonly known as simply "The Boer War" (as apparently the first Boer war is less well known) proved to be the longest, the costliest, the bloodiest and the most humiliating campaign that Britain fought between 1815 and 1914 How true is this?

What effects did the war have on language(s) & culture(s) of the British Empire, South African Republic & Orange Free State?

What did any possible relatives of the Boers who lived in the Netherlands or Flemish Belgium think of the war? When WW1 was on the horizon was there any attempt to avoid another war soon after such a costly one?

Was the Boer War one of the reasons, Britain decided to follow a policy of "splendid isolation"? Because they were preoccupied with other things?

Thanks to anyone that can answer my questions :)
