My personal thought is that Khorne may be the most influential through his incitement of the third Reich (through some quite catchy chants) into invading their neighboring countries. However, I was recently challenged that other chaotic beings have been even more influential and wanted to know what yalls thoughts were.

How was such a cruel system maintained for the better part of a century without mass riots/revolution occurring much earlier?

Ladies and gentlemen, the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender is home to many religions and spiritual traditions. However, the Fire Nation is the only nation (to my knowledge) that is shown to have an official clergy -- the Fire Sages. Now, But what we do know is that the Fire Sages Capital Temple -- the highest religious institution in the Fire Nation -- is situated in the heart of a volcano called Caldera. The Royal Palace is built right next to it, and the entire city is build around it and its volcano.
Now, little is known about the actual religious beliefs of the Fire Nation, but if they chose to build their capital and their most important temple in this particular volcano, it must hold some extreme religious significance. Furthermore, we can look at a few facts:
Fire Sage hats clearly look like erupting volcanoes
The roof of the Fire Nation palace resembles a tall volcano
This Sun Warriors mural clearly depicts a man being consumed by the fires of a volcano
This temple also clearly resembles a volcano
Is it possible that the Fire Nation, at least worships a volcano god?

Also, was the killing of the deputy a combined assault, or is one of them lying to get the other out of legal trouble?

War hero Malcolm Reynolds fought bravely for the Independents in the War of Unification. Though he may not have been on the winning side, he at least believed, he was on the right side.
However, what lead to the destruction of the Earth That Was? What caused the strong political alliance between China and America? What forces were at play in those historical times?

Hello all! I have been doing some research this morning to try and help my dad find his grandfather's name and we have found out that he came from Zran, Kain, Russia. Assuming it is city/state/country, I tried to look something up, but no help. Anyone know anything about Zran, Kain, Russia? He left in 1909 to come to the US. I'll try to answer anything else if possible! Thanks.
Edit: Downvote...really? If people said no, that would be fine too.

Hi, I'm a undergraduate student working on his Seven Kingdoms history major. So as you've probably heard by now, the Oldtown University (Go Ravens!) has released new findings that completely change the image of Tyrion Lannister. This was actually released by a professor of mine, Maester Martyn.
For many years, it was common knowledge that Tyrion Lannister had been an overall incompetent hand, a jealous and petty man, and eventually assassinated his own king and then father before fleeing into the night.
However, recent findings show that he may have actually been a highly competent Hand and was instrumental in the Battle of the Blackwater. It is well-known that Tyrion Lannister had claimed that he saved King's Landing from Stannis Baratheon, but until now his claims have not been taken seriously. Historical records and some eyewitness accounts by Ser Bronn of the Blackwater point towards him actually leading most of the battle.
So I was wondering, what r/askhistorians had to think about these new findings? Was Tyrion Lannister actually a hero?

I don't know if this is the right subreddit for this or not, but I was helping my father clean their basement earlier today when I came across this cup hidden in a duffel bag. I asked my father about it and he said that my mother had brought it home with her after working on a dig outside of İskenderun in Turkey.
Album. Sorry for the picture quality.
Is it historical in any way? How much do you think it's worth? Are there any other subreddits I should go and ask in?
