I've been a browser here for a few years now and have found it an invaluable resource for both academics, leisure, and general knowledge. It has enhanced my understanding of the world and how history affects us today, even ancient history. The recent expansions to the Southeast Asia sections of the resources list have proved extremely helpful to my paper on Cultural and Religious exchange via trade between Southeast Asia (particularly Sumatra and Java) and India (particularly the Cholas) for my Indian history class. Not only that, but the posts have maintained a consistent and well informed tone even on divisive or loaded questions. I would like to applaud and sincerely thank the mods and contributors of the subreddit for taking time out of their busy lives to provide an incredibly high quality experience for browsers, guests, and historians alike and hope that in the future I can contribute more directly to the sub when I am further along in my degree. You all have helped inspire me to learn more about history and culture and helped my decide to pursue Folklore and cultural history in addition to my Math. So thank you all very much, you are an inspiration and you make this sub an incredible place to be.
