1. The Etruscans dominated the Romans for more than a century, many of the Roman kings were Etruscans. The Romans resisted and when they were in a better position they ended up absorbing Etruria, but they only succeeded after defeating their former owners in successive wars.

2. The Carthaginians face the Roman power in some of the most spectacular wars in the ancient world. Both powers were very equal, so the victory changed sides constantly. This rivalry left us monumental battles in sea and land, great feats (crossing of the Alps) and a large number of military geniuses such as Hannibal or Scipio. The desire of Rome to defeat his adversary was so great that he filled the old Carthage with salt so that nothing would grow again.

3. The Greeks also had a long history of fighting with the Romans. From its first settlements in the so-called "Magna Grecia", going through the Pírricas wars and later in the wars of Macedonia, when Greece begins to be annexed by Rome.

4. As we know, the Germans were a people that strongly challenged the power of Rome. When the Roman power began to decline, the Germans were great protagonists of the fall of the eternal city and took some of their territories.

5. Of all the selected peoples, wars with the Huns were the shortest, but also the most destructive and implacable. For many authors, the Huns were the people who led Rome to its inevitable destruction, as they not only destroyed the Roman territories but also accelerated the migration of peoples who, fleeing from the Asian hordes, had to take refuge in their empire. Attila the Hun is one of the greatest conquerors of all time.

6. The Gauls faced Rome from its origins and were one of its most persistent adveraries. During the monarchy they managed to plunder the city although centuries later they were defeated by Julio Cesar.

Disclaimer: I am not white. I don't care about any of this. I just want to spark discussion. Please don't get offended.

Feminism
Men have lost a lot of their "power" to women. Women now outnumber men at college and women are slowly taking over positions of power. Sweden was the first - it has an all female government. Minorities also have taken many power positions from White men. The mayor of London is Arabic, not white. The Prime minister is a woman. These aren't "bad" things per say, but it means white men have little power anymore.

Immigration
White people as a whole are getting replaced. Thanks to colonization, multiculturalism (Kalegri Plan). White people are becoming diluted and are becoming minorities in their own countries. While many see this as a noble cause for a less Racist World - in reality it just means "less white people". Now, most white are very Liberal and WANT this immigration to take place... each to their own. All I'm saying is white people no longer have their own countries... like every other race does. It wouldn't matter so much if Whites were going to other countries but all that's happening is "White" countries are being "diluted" and this means white people will soon become minorities in their own countries and eventually become extinct. White people are no longer minorities in London. By 2050, most people in Sweden will be Muslim. By 2030, Black people will be the majority in France.

Women
Most women prefer their own race. Except for White women. White women are the most attractive race of woman on the planet. They... no longer want white men. Most white women prefer other races. This is only with white people. Every other race of woman prefer their own... essentially, Beautiful white women are now "lost" to white men. Think of that as you want but it is the stone-cold truth.

So.. what do you think. Do you agree with my statements? Do you think white men have "fallen"? Once again, no one get salty. It's just a question. Relax!

In governance, sortition (also known as choice by lot, allotment, or demarchy) is the selection of political officials as a random sample from a larger pool of candidates. Sortition ensures all competent and interested parties have an equal chance of holding public office. It also minimizes factionalism, since there would be no point making promises to win over key constituencies if one was to be chosen by lot. Elections, by contrast, foster factionalism. For that reason, when the time came to choose individuals to be assigned to empowering positions, the ancient Athenians resorted to choosing by lot. In ancient Athenian democracy, sortition was the traditional and primary method for appointing political officials, and its use was regarded as a principal characteristic of true democracy.

Today, sortition is commonly used to select prospective jurors in common law-based legal systems and is sometimes used in forming citizen groups with political advisory power (citizens' juries or citizens' assemblies).

Just asking in relation to the Ford case. Personally I don't know what happened but the way I see it is like this, if he's innocent/ did not do what people say the supreme court justice did then we've shamed an innocent man. If he did assault Ford then we've let a guilty man go free and assume a position of power
