I always wondered what happen to those ancient civilizations that just up and disappeared. You know the ones were there are no text or anything written about a collapse. It makes you think, some of these civilizations were advanced as we are in terms of social advancement. Not a single one of these civilizations recorded what happen. As a civilization grows so does its numbers, groups and beliefs. We see that today with all the many groups we have whether it be political religious or whatever. Within these groups you see these people always fighting one another from the very big to the very small. Individuals will always clash and everyone has their own beliefs or the beliefs of others create new ones which leads/creates to even more fighting. What if some of these civilizations went its way because of all the in house fighting? A people that cant fight together cant stand together. If you cant stand together what would you do? You would only really have two choices, kill each other or forget about the civilization you once belonged too and you'd take those who believe in the same thing and try to survive as a group away from others that dont see it your way. As more groups leave, civilization begins to crumble and all the pieces that make the clock tick fall out of place and the clock stops. Aka no one is their to record what happen because no one cares because they are too busy fighting each other. Back then you could do that "get away" because the planet wasnt as populated as it is today. You could separate far enough that you wouldnt have to worry. Todays world you cant do that which leads us to were we are now. I dont know what the future hסlds for us as a people, but I do know it cant be good. The world is too populated for people to divide which leads me to believe some counties just wont make it that much longer.
Some just ascended into the next dimension which is fulfilling the purpose of their existence here You think those astronomy chambers were a joke

it almost mirrors today, imagine if computers suddenly all stopped working with no way to fix them or something. how many of us have the actual knowledge to survive at that point? shit even farmers heavily rely on computers and added chemicals and fertilizers, etc and if it happened we'd almost disappear without a trace also

Obviously there was advanced ancient technology before the great flood and the pyramids were built by a World Order. Probably killed themseves in a nuclear holocaust
Brandon Smith
that's why Trump is trying so hard to get rid of nukes. Weaponry is the great filter that determines whether humanity is ready to move onto the next level.
Kayden Martinez
But at least farmers can grow as small little plot just enough for them to trade and survive

Climate change/crop failures. Internal power structures falling apart. Factionalism. Outside invaders. The same reasons all empires fall.
Really I think one of the real main factors for Europe becoming so pre-eminent in the world is that their empires were usually never large nor stable, Rome being the main exception and even then that was more Med. than continental europe (and its governance was often hands-off). While much of the rest of the world either didn't adopt major sedentary agriculture or formed ~relatively~ stable empires, Europe remained largely fractured, constantly either in direct or indirect conflict with itself, so then military technology advances as does the desire to go out and gain access (and then later, direct control for even more access) to new trade routes and resources.

this isnt a pyramid thread the pic is semi unrelated
Jayden Peterson
lol whoops I completely skimmed the OP of this thread, my points still stand.
Bentley Rivera
Yeah its weird some of these countries were able to survive such things and others just arent. Or if you look at china. China really isnt the china that was first created. Its different its gone through so many shifts thats its only survived because people keep fighting for it
Robert Butler
/it goes through power shifts and new ideas are created

I attended U of Illinois and took Anthro 278.. The professor had researched the Mayans extensively. I looked for a link to her work before but couldn't find it. It's been almost 10 years and I'm out of town, can't remember her name. Anyway, the water down there was bad and basically putrid. However, the rulers controlled the water supplies and used a certain plant that would filter their water and purify it.. She basically claimed that as the Mayans began to spread out they "lost" the knowledge and civil wars basically killed off the ruling classes who knew how to maintain the giant pools they used. As the plants died and pools dried up the people left the "cities" and just blended in with other tribes. Again, it's just her claims.

trade and survive with who exactly? the world would collapse and barely anyone would survive and trade would take another century after the mass die off to begin again
Evan Morales
my point is a bunch of people are still banned right now for trying to talk about whidbey less than a week from when it happened, and shit like this goes unpruned by the fuck-up janitors on the fed's payroll.
These slide threads reproduce like fucking rabbits, but real shit gets hidden. Unironically KYS
thats true but the ones that know how to survive could survive long enough for such things to happen
Justin Williams
Well Imperial China existed in some form or another after the end of the Warring States (the mongol takeover nonwithstanding since the Mongols weren't really in the business of running empires, hence why theirs didn't last despite its size/rapid expansion) until about the 19th century when the Europeans/Americans came in and imposed themselves on a complacent and unprepared state full of goods/customers. Then you had the civil war and the Japanese invasion, Mao's China, reforms, etc.

Winners sacrifice themselves to the Gods... Nobody wants a loser after all. These past civilizations were the winners.
Owen Fisher
So white people will be winners
Sweet!!!
Mason Hernandez
makes you think that all you need is one big impact to keep a civilization/ country from falling
Sebastian Gonzalez

Joseph Turner
I thought about that but this is also political
Dylan Lewis
no it fucking isnt. >This board is for the discussion of news, world events, political issues, and other related topics.
>Off-topic and /b/-tier threads will be deleted (and possibly earn you a ban, if you persist). not that the mods care that 90% of the shit on this board goes against the fucking sticky. Fucking glow in the dark bread and circuses
Jaxon Brooks
>a civilization/country falling isnt political wut If you didnt like it why didnt you sage the thread? Do you know how to sage? The thread was on page 9 and almost dead yet you come in here to complain like a female and bump the thread to page 9

there were cataclysms. one was 12,5k years ago however it seems that wasnt the last one. that was the second last one i guess, the rain of fire the aztecs talk about which was later followed by the global flood so many cultures speak of there also probably was some nuclear anihalation going on at some point i could have posted the pastas, but that would just unncessary flood the thread i guess
it does get deleted, you just need to hit the time where mods sleep. my history thread i linked a bit ago also always goes deleted or moved when a mod sees it

pic related is baalbek/heliopolis in lebanon. these rocks had to be moved, lifted and neatly stacked upon each other. how did they do that? rense.com/general42/soundlev.htm >When the stone was in position the monk behind the small drum gave a signal to start the concert. The small drum had a very sharp sound, and could be heard even with the other instruments making a terrible din. All the monks were singing and chanting a prayer, slowly increasing the tempo of this unbelievable noise. During the first four minutes nothing happened, then as the speed of the drumming, and the noise, increased, the big stone block started to rock and sway, and suddenly it took off into the air with an increasing speed in the direction of the platform in front of the cave hole 250 metres high Some accounts tell that the pyramids were build in a similar fashion. Now i agree this sounds pretty ridiculous, but then there is this stuff youtube.com/watch?v=0K8zs-KSitc indeed it sounds like it underlies another principle than the story of the tibetians, but there were stories about levitating stuff with sound, and now we can actually do that. so maybe there is more to the legends than we care to believe. and there are quite a few legends that turned out to be real. If it works at all it probably just needs the right finetuning, the right frequencies, volume, distance and rythm to increase the effect greatly. I also believe this technology/knowledge to be from the (fallen) angels which we used to build the pyramids and other stuff
