And with Aryan we get onto the Aryan race which brings us back to Alliances |
"Aryan" is actually an old indo-european word that is translated to meaning something similar to "Noble". The National Socialist party got the idea to describe people through this common linguistic link. Even then, it is a poor way to describe race because Hindi and Persian are both Indo-European languages, and as of today India is a mix between old medditeranean peoples and the australoid, dravidians. Persia(Iran) is a mixed between the old medditeranean peoples and pretty much every racial group in existance, like the rest of the middle east. You wouldn't really describe them as "European" or for the English speakers "White" in today's world. Their cultural does stem from the same "Aryan" culture that Europeans have as well. Having said all this, not all native Europeans are rooted from "Indo Europeans or Aryans". The basque are genetically similar to most of the rest of europe, their language isn't Indo-European though. It wasn't until recently(last 2,000 years) where Indo-European language and culture has really dominated Europe to its fullest actually. Finnish is another example of a non-indo european language for arguments sake.

Please stop with the history lessons or at least use paragraphs. I know what Aryan is. I was making a joke

I was just quoting your post in the case there was a misunderstanding and if you thought I was referring to the posts about World War II with the term, which I wasn't. You were trying to find a connection with my post, and I explained how it wasn't the same thing. It wasn't you trying to bring this back on topic either, because my post was much more relevant to this thread than any of the last 50. So it was more along the lines of you trying to bring it back Off Topic. As for the paragraph comment, I think a more befitting formating would have been double spacing rather than paragraphs. Paragraphs are used to distinguish main ideas, not to make something look nicer. My post had the same main idea, so I only used one paragraph. I will gladly switch to a more "readable" format though.
