"When Emperor Romanos IV was conducted into the presence of Alp Arslan, the Sultan refused to believe that the bloodied and tattered man covered in dirt was the mighty Emperor of the Romans. After discovering his identity, Alp Arslan placed his boot on the Emperor's neck and forced him to kiss the ground." Source books.google.co.uk

remember when mehmet II demanded the surrender of nikolas' boypucci (the 14yo son of a byzantine admiral) and decapitated his dad and older son before enjoying him thoroughly
after nikolas escaped he married a woman but never got a girl because he was too troubled thinking of mehmets dick
Zachary Nguyen
Yeah, it sucks that a civilization got destroyed by some savages. I really fail to see why that brings some people joy or pride.
Ryder Lee
Yeah there was and your government fucking caused it

The current state of our country?

>I really fail to see why that brings some people joy or pride.
well first of all, moslems aren't people. and secondly, because moslems want to destroy everything and force the world to live in the dark ages for perpetuity. that's why they celebrate it.
Jayden Sullivan
I mean, yeah kara boga etc, whitey btfo. This hardly answers my question. But if you just want to shitpost, whatever, I'm too tired to bother with that.
Easton Myers
What kind of fucking answer do you want.
I couldn't be less emotionally invested in something that happened that doesn't directly involve my heritage and identity or the last 70 years.
I'm just shitposting m9
Jordan Taylor
He is not even muslim, come on. Just some edgy teenager, larping as a black/muslim to trigger Jow Forums. We have tons of anons like him here. I was stupid enough to expect an actual discussion, but I guess that's impossible here.
Charles Garcia
You sure about that?
Connor Barnes
who, the guy with the UK flag? he's probably a moslem.
Ryan James
but yeah he could also be larping, you're right
Leo Green
You're not white turkroach. Reconquesta when?
Grayson Hall
I am of Nogai descent through Middle Ages but you are right I am not Muslim. I just wanted to trigger Jow Forums.
Jaxon Harris
>Not Rhodesian.
Tee Hee!
Jack Davis
Its just always an easy way to bait - put on a BLM flag and say something along the lines of "BTFOing whitey" or post interracial porn. Maybe its fun, idk, at least these threads often get to 100+ replies.
Carter Sullivan
>I just wanted to trigger Jow Forums.
Fair enough. Thats what most people are here for anyway.
John Ward
Britain and Chile is fucked differently. Luckily I am not ethnic Anglo-Saxon.
Matthew Peterson
He was born after 1980, he's a good lad
Dylan Baker
Sick of the monotony and "Muh Deus Vult".
Zachary Anderson
Yeah, that sucks as well. Jow Forums seems to have stopped caring altogether about providing any arguments or actually discussing things. It feels like the whole board is in the constant mode of shitposting.
Robert Miller
The UK every day is more humiliating than some battle 1000 years ago.
Angel Reyes
That is disgusting.
Isaac Martinez
KARA BOGA be proud.
Xavier Reed
This sounds fake
David White
I used to be a quality poster but then these threads kept getting ignored, this has had the best traffic yet. If anything I am proving a point.
William Russell
London is like our California. I think I got AIDS from looking at that degenerate's crotch.
Xavier Smith
They were basically crippled by internal political battles between aristocrat families like today
Connor Bailey
they were like 99/100 destroyed already, wipes out the last 1, ultimate humiliation. there was no greatness left of the byzantine empire so Idc about the last shit kissing someones foot as it could have been anyones.
Alexander Bailey
Well, the Sultan later treated him well and released him to the Byzantines, only for him to be blinded and dumped on an island by his own people where he died from an infection.
Landon Ross
I guess you are right. I tried making threads about stuff like actually resolving the Israel-Palestine conflict and most replies were "just nuke both". Most people have stopped trying.
Yeah, also they have suffered quite a lot from the Sack of Constantinople.
Carson Howard
The Byzantines went out on their feet kicking and screaming as much of Europe abandoned them. Cant say the same for modern bongland
Noah Lee
Jerusalem should be Turkmen clay. Problem solved.
Ayden Rogers
Byzantium failed to unite the classes and ultimately imploded after the first invasions.
Leo Ward
Didnt that libya dude get raped by a dagger in the butthole. Like literally someone stook a sharp dagger up the anus hole all the way.
Parker Lopez
Now Libya is a smoldering wreck thanks to Democrat antics.

Every single rhodeshit should've been lynched by the black freedom fighters. Only fair.
Thomas Wright
I will never understand the Turk fetish of Black men.
Sebastian Green
>Breadbasket of Africa
>Zimbabwe
>Shithole
>Eventual re-annexation by Britain.
Then we'll see who'll be lynched.
Anthony Smith
Byzantium lasted for a thousand years pathetic bong.
The last emperor died fighting betrayed by the barbarians the empire turned into humans.
You and your country on the other hand, well you're a pit of despair. You disgust me.
You disgust everyone.
And you will never, ever be on the same level as Roman ubermensch
Your women will be the cumbuckets of our working class, your men the powerbottoms for every faggot in this world, your children playthings for Pakis, you will end up stabbed and die in hospital waiting for treatment. Arabs will take your number and your life.
ENJOY!

Based Ottomans I really wish you guys conquered us faster and enter Hungary and Austria like conquerors.A shame we stopped your seemingly unbeatable force and didnt let you reach and destroy Rome as you wanted.
Kayden Turner
Kayden Anderson
I have no problems with Turks, i prefer an honorable enemy over a dishonorable ally
Roman is the empire
Hellenic my nationality
The empire is beyond nations, as was the Ottoman empire
By the way you really make a disservice to Arslan's legacy by not mentioning the entire story
Arlsan after the initial act was actually really polite to Romanos, he asked him what he would do to him if he was caught
Romanos replied, i would bring you to Constantinople, parade you and then kill you
Arslan then said, you have the cross on your chest yet you don't follow the words of Christ but i will and he set him free
Mason Lewis
Also they had a relatively small population. ERE was sparsely populated.
Blake Lopez
Don't shoot the messenger. Romanos BTFO yet again! Fact is the Byzantine Greeks became lazy and corrupt when they relied solely on mercenary support so a total loss was the expected outcome.
Hunter Morris
Well since you like Turks so much why don't you go join them.
Aaron Turner
Most of them did!
Aiden Murphy
Dude you don't know what you are talking about
In the battle of Manzikert most of the Roman army was imperial
The German mercenaries were send in the boarders in Hungary cause they were so barbaric and unruly that they suffered attrition from the local population, most mercenary forces consisted of Seljuks
The main bulk of the army was the Armenian heavy infantry (Imperial army) and the Cataphract cavalry(imperial army as well)
Fact is that the loss of big part of Asia Minor meant that the empire lost it's main recruting area
Rough land makes tough people as Herodotus first said
Also please don't confuse Seljuks with Ottomans, leanr you history better
nonsense, it's was actually the opposite
Most Turks are actually descendants of islamised Armenians/Greeks/Assyrians/Kurds
Ian Lopez
Byzantine Mercenaries were 10 times the Imperial forces. Pechenegs and the Cumans rightfully joined their Turkish brothers.
Levi Reyes
the full story is more interesting.
>Emperor Romanos IV was himself taken prisoner and conducted into the presence of Alp Arslan.
>After a ritual humiliation, Arslan treated him with generosity. After peace terms were agreed to, Arslan dismissed the Emperor, loaded with presents and respectfully attended by a military guard.
>The following conversation is said to have taken place after Romanos was brought as a prisoner before the Sultan:[10]
>Alp Arslan: "What would you do if I was brought before you as a prisoner?"
>Romanos: "Perhaps I'd kill you, or exhibit you in the streets of Constantinople."
>Alp Arslan: "My punishment is far heavier. I forgive you, and set you free."
Carson Nelson
Total and utter obliteration by Alp Arslan.
Blake Gomez
>"My punishment is far heavier. I forgive you, and set you free."
