WHEN YOU SUBMIT.

Keep in mind that your badass moderator, being a history student, knows things about the following and is a little too preoccupied with the things in bold:

-The World Wars
-The late Roman Republic and pre-Holy Roman Empire
-Elizabethan England, particularly London
-The Age of Sail
-Twentieth century Britain
-Tokugawa Japan
-The American Revolution, Civil War, and twentieth century
-Nineteenth century Germany (ish)

While happy and equipped to do some research about your era of choice, IF YOU DON’T SEE IT HERE AND THINK YOU COULD MAKE IT HILARIOUS, GIF IT YOURSELF, I AM NOT AS FUNNY AS YOU also I don’t want people getting real mad thinking this blog is only white people history.
