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.

Welcome one and all to another edition of the Sunday Digest. One of the best collections of history answers on AskHistorians! Come have a browse through some of the finest of threads. From the civil war to the Roman republic, and so much more. Chernobyl has been a particularly popular theme this week, so get ready for some totally rad answers on that!

Have a look through the traditional weekly staples, and then continue on to everyone else’s answers. Don’t forget to upvote your favorite answers, and jump in to suggest any threads from this week that you loved and that I missed.

META thread time! Ever wonder Why are the responses on posts in this subreddit so frequently removed? Our regulars don’t, and now you can find out why as well!

My only regret is that I have but one upvote to give in service to this great history. That’s it for me this week as usual. See you fine folks next week, and keep on keeping.
