Snapphanarnas krig, en del av skånes historia
Jag tittade ofta på den här dokumentären på Youtube när jag skrev min avhandling om snapphanar och Torstenssons krig (1643-1645).

Book jacket - primary colors, rust, red, black and yellow. Top half is text (title, editors' names, etc). In the bottom half is a drawing of two women - one white-skinned, one dark-skinned - standing facing one white man. Servants behind them hold sunshades over each of the three protagonists.
This imminent volume looks so interesting!

I invite Tim to consider the American carceral system and understand that THIS is what white supremacy has and continues to look like. America is foundationally racist and this kind of dramatic statement only serves to underscore the reactionary politics of its pundit class.

Fort Nassau in Ghana (left), by Hans Propheet in 1629. Established following a treaty with the Asebu in 1612, the fort came under control of the Dutch West India Company in 1624. This WIC map of 1650 (right) emphasised Dutch occupation of Brazil, for which slaves from Fort Nassau were trafficked.

The military entrepreneur Mansfeld was kinda employed by Christian IV in early 1626, but the Danish king loathed the man nevertheless. Christian once admired a painting of a Roman being tortured and quipped "that would be Mansfeld's just reward too."

True dat. From late 1627 they couldn't get enough troops in Stade, but that was then general Charles Morgan and the military administration talking.

In my experience as a historian of this topic, whenever a German town sent a letter to its sovereign during the Thirty Years War, it was not to welcome a garrison but along this line 'that this town has no opportunity to take in any garrison'.
(Council of Stade to Christian IV, September 1626.)

21 February 1808: Russian troops under Friedrich Wilhelm von Buxhoevden crossed the Swedish-Russian border in Finland without a formal declaration of war, capturing the town of Loviisa and initiating the Finnish War, which lasted until September 1809.

Kokoomus: "Kaikilta vasenkätisiltä on leikattava vasen nimetön pois."
Media: "Näillä kaikilla tavoin vasenkätisiltä voi leikata vasemman nimettömän pois. Löydä suosikkisi!"
Antti Lindtman: "Mutta me leikkaisimme vasenkätisten nimettömät pois aina puudutuksessa."
