Here are a couple of posts that seemed to be overlooked:

• A Question for our Counter-Insurgency Specialists about the effectiveness of Rhodesian counter-insurgency operations by /u/BritainOpPlsNerf only had a few upvotes but led to a good answer from /u/Bernardito. Further discussion on the subculture of military history buffs also arose.
• /u/KatsumotoKurier posed the question If the Opera "Parsifal" by Wagner was criticized for being anti-Semitic and pro-Aryan, why was the opera banned in Nazi Germany and found to be "ideologically unacceptable" in the Third Reich? I thought this was an interesting question, but it unfortunately got only a few upvotes and no answers.

/u/celebreth on conspicuous consumption by Julius Caesar:

• Did plebeian "Homines Novi" in Ancient Rome engage in Conspicuous Consumption to a higher degree than their patrician counterparts?

The question I had the most fun answering this week was from /u/JournalofFailure: Legend has it that dummy blueprints for the Concorde, featuring design errors, were created to fool Soviet agents - and that the USSR's supersonic airliner, the TU-144, featured some of these flaws. Is that true?

An interesting question about the little-known era of private roads in 19th century America got a bit sidetracked.

I went a little overboard on a question about the history of various Palestinian groups and Lebanon-Israel relations...that was me trying to keep it barebones and short! It was difficult enough just doing that :(.

I had a question

• What happened during the Roman conquest of Sardinia and Corsica?

I also thought /r/CommodoreCoCo's question was interesting.

• When/where do we first see monkeys and bananas be commonly associated in media?
