I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

In between catching up on many things I’m trying to do a bit of reading. I’m
trying to finish Julius Caesar’s Gallic wars. This is a series of (small)
books written by Julius Caesar himself.
This is the best reading I’ve had in years. Truly, Julius Caesar may have
been a great general, but he was a wonderful author and a good and fair man
too. I am finding it absolutely hillarious. It is so funny, reading of all
the naughty, naughty people we Europeans are descended from.
I just want to say that Julius Caesar and the Romans were good people. That
is why they survived so long and had such influence out of all proportion to
their numbers. If you imagine that the Romans were vicious and evil – FORGET
IT. The Romans were, in their time, what the United States today is trying to
be. And the Romans did it for hundreds of years and were good at it. They
made peace, they made friends, won allies, did business, instituted law and
order and were FAIR. The Romans also stood up for the weak if they were being
hammered wrongfully by the strong.
What made those Romans so superior was their organisation, their intelligence
and their level-headedness.
It is hillarious to read of the warmongering Germans (who, I might add were
extremely accomplished LIARS too). Or the fickle Gauls who made awesome
decisions on the spur of the moment (based often on rumour). Or the wild
Britons, among whom incest was often the order of the day.
One thing I want to say though, from an African perspective, is that Europe
2,000(43)+ years ago, was more organised than most of Africa is TODAY. It may
seem bizarre, but this is true. Even the BARBARIANS of Europe, whom Caesar
tried to civilise, were actually pretty clever and organised people. I am
stunned at the plans these people laid in building ships, bridges and towns.
Their commerce, their legal systems, their government, etc were pretty good.
Capitalism was alive and thriving and it was everywhere.
As always, there were those who sought riches and others sought power. Some
were traitors and others were brave.
But among all these, the “tiny” Romans, who were physically smaller than the
others stand out. The Romans, smaller, and often vastly outnumbered could
handle virtually anything. The superior logic of the Romans, their
organisation and their discipline enabled them to survive against incredible
odds.
Caesar, at one point, built a bridge across the massive Rhine river in only
10 days in one of the greatest feats of engineering of all times. Another
time, he build a rampart for defensive purposes which was many miles long,
and they did it in only a few days. His soldiers build 600 ships in a single
winter so they could sail over to Britain and deal with the naughty British.
Imagine Britain being invaded with a force of 800 ships! The Britons sent an
army to oppose the Romans, but when they saw the awe-inspiring sight they
fled!!
Our ancestors may have been naughty, but they were also, very clever. There
is much to be learnt from the Greeks and the Romans and it is sad for me,
that in this day and age, those of us of European descent, should be so
ashamed of our Western culture and our Western Civilisation. We might not be
as advanced as China was then, but we certainly came a close second.
I thoroughly recommend Caesar’s Gallic wars as good reading. Its not a big
book, but it certainly makes the people of those times come alive, and it
leaves me thoroughly impressed with Caesar, the Romans, and even those
Barbarians. All these people were actually quite organised and their
societies were amazingly well-run.
Europe, thousands of years ago, was better run than this African continent I
live on now, and it leaves me pretty impressed with the achievements of those
people.
Some months ago, a high-ranking black here in South Africa said something to
the effect that whites should leave Africa in their “rotting wooden ships”.
Yet, I will have you know, that those old wooden ships, which our ancestors
sailed across the world in, were, the space ships of their day. Those FREE
ENERGY sailing ships, took our ancestors across the globe, from the north
pole to the south pole. Those “rotting wooden ships” were the most amazing
invention of their time, and the science behind their navigation is
staggering. If anything, the maritime traditions of Europe must surely rank
as one of the finest things to ever come from there.
Our ancestors sailed seas, crossed hostile continents, and sallied forth into
the Arctic and the Antarctic. All in all, we come from a tradition of
inquisitive, energetic and creative people who faced all sorts of problems
and overcame them.
In my opinion, that is something to be proud of.
And as for Rome, I think Americans would do well to look at how the Romans
policed the known world of those times and how they dealt with a myriad of
problems and fickle peoples. Conspiracies and back-stabbing were the order of
the day. I’ll bet Julius Caesar could teach the useless politicians of today
a thing or two about winning wars and making peace and instituting law and
order among people who are wild and hard to discipline. The problems the USA
faces today with terrorism are no different to what Caesar faced.
We people of European descent should be a little more proud of our ancestors.
They were NOT a bunch of criminals who just stole and murdered and killed as
some would have us believe. Often, they made some pretty clever and pretty
wise decisions, and countries under their control prospered.
