At the time of its apogee, around 400 BC, Sparta had 25,000 citizens and 500,000 slaves, so 20 slaves per citizen.

Before the Second World War, 22 people in the New York phonebook were named Hitler. After the war, in the same year, no one appeared!

I am surprised how sparta was not overun by its slaves! probably because of lack of a proper leader among them.

yes, that might be one of the reasons!

Humans as a race must learn to think independently. History has shown so many times what a single person can make the people do like a herd of sheep. The education system, as well as the society, should change such that people learn to think rationally instead of being shaped by the opinion of the sheep.

hope everything will be changed by cryptos :D all mindsets

don't know if it is funny or not, all people called Hitler died. o.O

I don't think they died but they 'dissapeared' hehe

A little back to the history of the past, it is very difficult to know without us reading this matter, concerned, as you mentioned, pepi II is the king of the Sixth Dynasty in the Old Kingdom of Egypt with the title Neferkare. Many historical relics can be found there.
