Today:
Welcome to this week's instalment of /r/AskHistorians' Sunday Digest (formerly the Day of Reflection). Nobody can read all the questions and answers that are posted here, so in this thread we invite you to share anything you'd like to highlight from the last week - an interesting discussion, an informative answer, an insightful question that was overlooked, or anything else.
A fantastic answer from /u/ghostofherzl on the politics relating to the founding of the UN. I'd just like to thank him once again for answering this despite it being 20 days after its initial posting which means that probably only I will end up seeing it. Hope I can give it some additional visibility.
Good answers from /u/thefourthmaninaboat and /u/kieslowskifan that were done rather late at night and thus probably missed some attention. Its on how and why the German naval doctrine used large surface ships for the purpose of commerce raiding.

I would be very glad to see an answer to the following question by u/td4999, as I have been wondering about it:
Very busy week, so unfortunately didn't get to read as many answers as I usually do... :sadface:. Also a bit late on this! But better late than never:
/u/400-Rabbits answered "How did the Aztecs decide who to sacrifice?"
/u/jimthewanderer on "How did the bronze age peoples survive harsh winters?"
/u/mikedash answered "On 18 April 1930, the BBC announced that "There is no news today". What are some events of your field of history that could have been reported?" and also "What was the use of Tulips during the Tulipmania?"
