The title says it all. How did Romans and foreigners look at the fact the empires were split?

Given the enormity of social programs and the nature of communism were there homeless populations in cities under Soviet administration? How prevalent was poverty and how effectively did basic services reach the poor? I'm looking more specifically at large urban areas during the 1950s to 1960s but any period or location helps.

Like wether or not it was regarded as a "holy" image before his death, information like that.

What were their powers/duties?

I know the infamous "gap left by the Dark Ages" graph is wrong on a lot of levels, but obviously there must have been some dropout after the empire dissolved.

Aeneid claims Aeneas left Troad and migrated to Italy and a modern book (with no citation) said Aeneas succeed Priam as King of Troy. Can anyone verify or deny latter claim?

Considering a bunch of high profile characters got away with quite horrible human experiementation in exchange for the US taking part of that information I assume it must've been at least a bit useful yet I've never heard of anything being learned.

It seems like everyone started freaking out when the Reds sprung up. Did they really pose that much of a threat?

Excluding the notable examples of Fascist Italy and World War II Japan.

And in contrast to dictators that were both head of state and government.

I know a lot of Europe starved during world war 2 and America even sent ships of food over to Britian. I couldn't find anything on this sub or on google about it so I'm asking here.

I'm listening to the history of Rome podcast, and it seems like the Romans did not hold women in high regard.

Were the Sassanids, in say, 400 or 500 AD, like their western neighbors?

1. Could women exist independently of husbands/fathers?

2. Could women own businesses?

3. Did women have equal contractual rights and fair rules governing divorce?

4. Could women hold formal military, political, and religious power?

I am asking for a friend who has decided to take up historical reenactments. I am a wondering if there is historical evidence of any use of pipes for smoking by 10th century Vikings. Please excuse any off terminology I am here to learn.

Europe, 1200-1900, or if you want narrower, France 1500 to revolutoon.

I just keep reading it in historical novels how even close courtiers would not allowed to asks kings questions. Like "go take this letter to Prince X" and then they could not ask "where is Prince X"

Is it true? How would this work?

I'm looking for a history of the rise of modern fundamentalist Christianity that is written from a secular perspective. I would like to understand the reasons why the movement gained so much momentum so quickly, as well as the main ideas driving the movement.

For example, did any German officers surrender their troops with promises made that the officers would not stand trial for war crimes.

Was there any kind of understanding for when surrendered troops would be released from POW status?

If promises were made who made them and were they honored?

Hey! Recently I got assigned to write a paper stating some of the pros and cons that colonialism had in Africa. When you try to research and find for pros I had a difficult time finding anything. I am by no means stating that colonialism in Africa was good thing, but I'm interested in hearing what the other side has to say. Thanks!

Obviously they had martial arts; that's not what I mean. I'm wondering about a discipline - even an esoteric one - with an emphasis on understanding, appreciating, and caring for one's own body.

I am not an American, and pretty much all I know of American history I learned from an old computer game. And I apologise for the broad question, but I am open to all kinds of answers :)

You guys had the Revolutionary war against England, and later a civil war amongst yourselves, and after that, more or less the modern age, but what was going on in America between those two big formatory wars?
