Decent questions you should be able to answer.

-Can you tell the difference between an Almohad and a Seljuq?

-Do you know who replaced the Byzantine Empire?

-What is the title of the leader of the Ottomans?

-What is a Moor?

-Could you point out the Barbary coastline and the Balkans on a map?(Both in separate parts of Europe)

These questions don't even touch ground as to their roles and histories, they just ask if you even know who they were. If you can't answer them, then I refuse to hold any historical debate whatsoever with you on this website dating from the Renaissance to World War I.

that kind of dumb because the almohads were around in the medieval ages too.

Secondly i refuse to discuss anything with you at all if you havent read the iliad and the odyssey, because they are relevant from the bronze age greeks to present.

Harold Holt drowned

He was prime Minister.

His death was not suspicious.

That is fortunate of me as I have read both because they were on a list of recommended reading for those interested in the history of warfare, along with Of Trojan Women, then more modern works such as Storm of Steel and The Fall of Fortresses.

Mehmed II started with the wheel and agriculture. He was very organised and expansive, which means that he got courthouses bloody quick and faster workers. But he sucks compared to Suleimin because suliemin gets great scientists twice as fast.
