I went full Sinbad to answer someone who was asking whether Barawa, one of the medieval city-states on the Swahili coast, had actually been an Islamic republic. It turned out to be quite the rabbit hole, and required some significant research to answer properly, so the full response has only just been completed and this one counts as overlooked.

Was the Somali coast really home to Islam's answer to Venice between 1100 and 1890? You'll have to read the post to find out.

[Full disclosure - the answer's quite a detailed one even by the standards of this sub.]

I'd like to highlight u/400-Rabbits fantastic answer for What would it have been like to grow up as a girl in the Aztec Empire pre-colonialism?, which came a bit later and so went overlooked. It gives detailed insight into the daily lives of Nahua girls. My own answer on the same topic looks more generally at Nahua gender roles, and their changes into colonial times - for those interested it might work to read both answers together :)

Go read this by /u/mikedash on the government of Barawa on the Swahili coast. Abandon your children and loved ones; they no longer matter. Go read it right now.

Once again, I exhort everyone to check out /u/klesk_vs_xaero on Italian responses to the Russian Revolution and my angry ranting about plagiarism and bad sources on yesterday's Saturday Showcase.

u/kieslowskifan provided excellent context about the time France occupied Croatia, just in time for the World Cup final.

/u/prufrock451 on "During wartime drafts, what happened to life insurance? Does the cost skyrocket?"

/u/kochevnik81 answered "Western Propaganda about the Soviet Union"

/u/agentindiana answered "From what I understand, what is now part of Ethiopia had an ancient Hebrew-speaking population (the Kingdom of Semien) and now contains some of the oldest populations of both Christians and Muslims. Why was this region seemingly so hospitable for followers of Abrahamic religions?"

I also wrote an answer to a question on seventeenth-century Irish history relating to this week's theme of Ethnic Cleansing. The relationship between ethnicity, religion, and politics in early modern Ireland was not a simple binary. And you might get to be the first one who actually reads the answer, since I'm not sure a single soul has!

I thought u/XenophontheAthenian made a really good post about the Roman-Samnite wars and the idea of ethnic cleansing in general in ancient warfare.
