>Pagan Europe was paradise.
I am Suebi by blood.
According to the Romans:
>Be Suebi
>Each tribe has to contribute 100 men to the war effort every Spring
>There are 1000 tribes
>So every Spring, 100,000 men go vaguely eastwards into Eastern Europe into a 600 mile wide beaten dead zone and annihilate anything they find - steal or kidnap what they don't kill and burn the rest
>No houses worth the name - just temporary living quarters that we burn each year when we move with the animals.
>Attack our enemies on moonless nights, buck naked and painted head to toe in black. Carrying black shields. Because fuck you.
>Free men knotted their hair on the right side of the head as a symbol of status. Everyone else was a pog not worthy of attention.
>Be included into the Sagas, with one of the Valkyries named after us.
Thanks for the callout, but honestly I don't think it was the over-romanticized fake history most people imagine it to be.
Though I do think we need to get closer to nature and farther from tech. I would even go so far as to endorse abandoning "smart phones" and possibly even the internet itself.
