roman empire
t. not leftypol

Roman empire was not multicultural, just multiracial

The USA?

^this. such an important distinction.

>successful

Define 'successful'?

I could say Tang China, Greek, Roman, British, Persian, Carthaginian... But some based kek will say otherwise because they all fell in one way or another.

The only way a multicultural society has to thrive is to have a big cultural homogeneous core and small minorities isolated at the periphery

peak british empire

Greece, Rome, Byzantium, Persia, Babylon....etc.
Um, sorry, wop, but yeah, the Roman pussies were multicultural. That's sort of why there are hundreds of syncretist shrines, gods, etc. Aquae Sulis? Fuck off, italigger

How the fuck would you know? Are you an expert? You already answered in the negative. Most societies haven't yet been tried. You have no power here.

this is totally false, yes there is "romanization" to a degree, but latin did not replace tribal languages & select deities from the roman pantheon (incl the emperor of course) were worshipped alongside local cults.

but total BS that there was a monoculture across the empire. being able to maintain cohesion with minimal assimilation was what made the roman empire work, in fact.

>WE WUZ ROMANZ N SHIEET!
Roman Empire was not multicultural or multiracial. Not to the degree we're talking about in western societies today, and most parts of it were racially and culturally homogenous. They conquered a lot of different peoples. Calling Rome "multicultural" is grossly reductivist at best, and outright mendacious at worse.

>Tang China
How did it end, I wonder? (I don't actually wonder, I know)

No, there hasn't. Multiracial, yes up to a point, but never multicultural.

Gee, kinda like how various Latin patois became French, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, thanks to admixture between Latin and Keltic, Slavic, etc.? It's kind of historical fact, as you showed him. But being an italigger, he'll just claim Roma vita!

roman empire

The Roman Empire fell when it became multi-racial.

That's like calling the USA multicultural if it was made of all European peoples from different parts of Europe.

All /leftypol/ faggots in here claiming "multiculturalism has worked!" are not describing true multicultural or multiracial societies. They're not describing anything analogous to what is being done to the west or in particular the USA. I mean rome? They had like a 1% nigger population, outside of the areas that they conquered where the niggers were from. Wow HOW MULTICULTURAL! And anyhow Rome had an infamous 400 year crash. It never had a successful experience with multiculturalism, even on a small scale, when you understand that.

Didn't it fall right after opening its borders?

Different religions does not mean they were multicultural faggot. Romans built cities that looked like the same in every part of their empire, with the same facilities, same roads, same thermae, same buildings, same structures. They imposed the same two languages everywhere in the empire (latin and greek), the same costumes and the same organization. Eventually the native cultures disappeared. Very multicultural isn't it? Inferior subhuman. Besides, up to the edict of Caracalla the roman empire was very much similar to a colonial empire in wich only italians and their descendants in the provinces had roman citizenship by birthright, the provincials were second-tier citizen called peregrini and hade very few right and could only obtain romani citizenship working very hard. Very multicultural again nigger

Prove what, you fucking idiot? That "we are all one race, the human race"?

No. At least none where all ethnicities had the same rights. At the moment of appearance of multiculturalism, the civilization fell.

Culture is society. Society is Culture. Not a particular culture, but Culture. Can't have a Culture without society neither a society without Culture. Culture is plastic and designed to change. Whitebagger here, there's plenty of xtians who don't work hard, suck ass, and stink.

Multicultural is very different from multi ethnic/multi race

Ancient empires such as persian, rome, carthage, etc were multi cultural but they were all caucasian and their culture were somewhat similarso it worked a little

Dude they've got 100's of 1000's of pastoral nomads getting along just fine with sedentary farmers and city dwellers, each of whom speak different languages and are various different shades of brown, they do all this with only minor insurgences by the usual suspects (AQ and ISIS on the Afghan border but that's it ) if that's not multicultural/racial then what is?

>Greece, Rome, Byzantium, Persia, Babylon....etc.

This, any successful empire or culture was multiethnic. The difference to today is that they were never democracies and it was always clear who/what was the dominating culture.

>they were all caucasian and their culture were somewhat similar

There are no problems if all cultures are Indo-European ones. Or East Asian ones. Similar cultures and ethnicities can make multiculturalism work for a while... but the ideal is for each ethnic group to stay at his homeland.

Yup. White Bongs get/got on fine with Caribbeans, Indians, and SE Asians for the most part. It was the Pakistanis and Africans that fucked shit up. They're terrible people.

It's actually wrong to compare political cases and problems after modern with pre-modern societies.
Roman Empire wasn't multicultural, yet it wasn't ethnostate.

>Greece
absolutely false, both greek democracy (Athens) and the other monarchies were highly homogeneous, with other ethnic elements acting as literal slaves

>Rome
this one is true, albeit integration through romanization was paramount to the well-being of the state; in this regards, the society was indeed multicultural when it came to ethnicity, but very homogeneous when it came to language/culture.

>Byzantium
See above, very similar to Rome, albeit Christianity played a huge role in bringing people together. Moreover, the higher strata of elites was composed out of greeks/romans, while the lower strata was multicultural yet had limited rights in the functioning of the state itself. Yet again, culture and language brought people together, despite them being from different ethnic groups.

None of the first three examples of yours were actual multicultural societies. Multi-ethnic, sure, but not multicultural in the sense of everybody respecting each other's culture equally. There was always a higher strata of elites that controlled the narrative, and integration of other ethnic groups was paramount to the survival of the state itself. If conquered people didn't want to integrate, they would die or become slaves, and this pretty much dismantles every idea of these state actually being "multicultural".

Multicultural means that there are different people of very different culture, costumes and languages living under the same empire and considering themselves equally belonging to that empire, not adopting usefull tools or ideas of other nations nigger.

Caracalla saw to it that it would not be the case with the romans

So are all polities. Your point? No monoethnic states or societies have lasted any longer, most far shorter!

Liberal Democracy in a multicultural is nothing more than a racial head count.

Yeah, and different dogs prefer their clan and their appearance and type over other, if not forced

Study something in your useless life obese subhuman, very few genetic footprints were left by invaders in Italy because they were too few compared to the general population whose genetics were pre-roman mostly

Conflate, change subjects, yargle-blargle, and opine. xtianity destroyed Rome, and the point wasn't equanimity of political power but simply multiethnicity.

yes, but after almost three century.

Cool, we're gonna go down this stupid road, with this stupid argument? Because if we're comparing races to dogs and dog breeds, then we all agree and recognize it as indisputable that different breeds of dogs display different levels of intelligence, different temperaments, different personalities and therefore have different levels of desirability.

Congratulations, you retarded faggot, you just made every right-wing racists talking points for them, and all the while you were so stupid that you thought you were backing up your pretentious, gay, untrue multiculti leftism horseshit.

At what? Look at what? There is nothing to debunk. A bunch of commies yelling "NO, I DONT LIKE THAT GRAPH!" =/= "debunking".

And its not "debunkable" to start with. It's not a matter of debate. Just talk to any two people from different races. They're not the same. Period. Cancerous commie dumbfuck.

The great weakness of the last roman empire was that it was no longer capable of managing immigration, so a lot of barbarians came in but started to live on their own in bigger and bigger comunities without antìy kind of assmilation in the roman society. So basically yes,
> the more “multi-cultural” Rome got, the weaker it became.

This what this retard dont say when claim of all those EMPIRES as succesfull is that one ethnicity rule over the rest of the SERF

It's only possible if you have a clear ruling class in the majority.

Otherwise, it breaks down and tyranny can be the only thing that holds it together for some time until it finally collapses.

The british empire, which was only destroyed after they sent too many kangaroos to turkey

>Caracalla
Roman civilisation was already starting to going shit at this point in time. Why is it that only the empire phase, especially the last one, is always used when talking of Rome? There were also a republican phase and a monarchic one.

Based and redpilled
When all the ethnicities live together you have india, pakistsn , afganishtan, south america, china with uighur and tibetans and now a europe and usa where the race confrontation is destroying the nation .

multiethnicity does not mean multiculturalism. To become a citizen of Rome, you had to fully integrate in the society (learn the language, the customs, adopt the culture and public administration etc). If you did not do this, you'd be killed or enslaved. In a multicultural society, integration of other ethnic groups within the previous culture of the country/empire is not paramount, everybody is permitted to act as they did in their previous culture. Moreover, the state allows cultural exchange to the point of morphing its own dogma - in this regards, the United States of America is a truly multicultural empire, same goes for the UK as well.

>xtianity destroyed Rome
Sure, you could say that, but you could also argue that Christianity also benefited the Byzantine Empire a heck of a lot more than it did tot the Romans themselves.

Gosh you commies are really absolute retards... you didn't debunk anything. Learn something about genetics!

singapore's also multiracial but staunchly against multiculturalism

multiculti just results in brazil, though multiracialism can work if people are forced to be on the same page

see and multiethnicity does not mean multiculturalism. Especially when the state/empire is being run by a very homogeneous ruling class that owns all the power, while the integrated citizens of other ethnic groups have little to no chance to influence the course of the nation in the long run. It's one of the main reason why to become a citizen of Rome you had to be conscripted in the army and serve for decades at a row - it drastically limited the number of different ethnic groups from ever having the chance of getting into a position of power. You can argue that this all changed in the later stages of the Roman Empire, but that due to incompetence, corruption, degradation of the power of the state and decentralization (aka the empire became truly multicultural after a period of massive erosion of political power, when the elites couldn't project their power to the degree that they did in the past).

America is a SUCCESSFUL multi-cultural society, you fucking moron!
