History of Vandalia (PT1 TW: RomeBarbarianInvasion Timeline)
General | Posted 16 years agoIt was in the year 363 CE that the noble Vandals moved westward in what would be a fateful trip for the whole horde as a people and eventually a nation. This great trek westward was the dream of Vismar the Great, founder of Vandalia.
Vismar had contrived this great migration of people for several reasons. The Vandal people had always been on the move as nomads traveling the steppe but it was with the move of the Huns westward that it was for the best to move further west. As well, at this time the Vandals inhabited a strech of territory just north-westward of the Black Sea. Vismar had heard from traders and word of mouth of the great Roman Empire of its land and wealth. Wealth and plunder was a major reason in its own right but many say that it was the lure of seeing the Great Sea that hooked the warlord. He yearned to see the end of the Eurasian continent and set up his own land that would remember his name forever. Suffice to say he achieved what he wanted.
In the year 363 as the Vandals moved westward the events in the west were on the verge of apocolyptic. The West and Eastern Roman Empires long split were facing hordes of nomads from the deserts of the Middle East to the Saxon in the cold north. The arrival of the Vandals, The Goths, The Sarmatians, Roluxini, and The Huns were just apart of the times.
Vismar was far-sighted and knew that these other nomadic hordes would soon settle down and be his neighbors so as his people moved west he first established pacts of alliance with the Huns, Sarmatians, and Roluxini in hopes that once the Vandals had laid themselves down these people would uphold their word and find some other place to plunder. Though the Roluxani alliance soon ended as it begun when they became the first target of the Huns forcing them southward into the East Roman Empire.
It wasn't untill 365CE that the first scouts of the Vandals crossed the Danube river south of modern day Vienna but the Vandals soon followed later during the winter. Entering the West Roman Empire's lands they traveled and pplundered the rural country side staying away from the cities and main West Roman Empires easily. It wasn't untill a Roman army attempted to halt the Vandal advance into Northern Italy outside of modern day Saravejo that things became bloody-though the bloodshed was light as the Roman Army fled to safety as soon as it became clear the true size of the Vandal horde of thousands upon thousands upon thousands.
Crossing into Northern Italy in 370CE they caused quite a stir amongst the relativly undermanned Italian cities (the armies of the Empire off fighting the Alemanni and the Goths who had crossed the Danube not long after the Vandals) but again Vismar refused to attack these cities. he wanted to preserve his people's fighting force untill reaching his destination. Though in the winter of 370 CE his people did stay in southern Gaul, twice sacking the cities of Massila and Aires.
In 372CE the Vandals crossed the Pyreerenes into Roman Hispania! Commemorating the event with sacking the city of Tarracco twice! In 373AD Vismar's people had, had enough wandering and demanded to settle down so, Vismar took his own personal army and in less then a year took Carthago Nova! Making it is capital as he sacked the city and supplanted the native peoples with his own Vandals. Similar events played out in Tarracco which was governed by two of his sons. While one last movement of his people cemented Vismar's dream of settling at the water's edge of the world by taking Salmanacia and North-Western Iberia. Driving out all Roman influence except for the city of Corduba which had revolted against Roman rule and formed its own 'republic' under the rule of Gaius, soon joined by parts of north-western Gaul. Imemdiatly the rebels began trading rights with the Vandals. Vismar did ponder crushing the rebels but first he wanted to settle his people into ruling most of the Iberia Peninsula, what would become Vandalia, and use the rebels as a buffer to the Berbers in North Africa and the West Romans in Gaul.
After much settling down and building, Vismar sent a force under Theogi his second son to take the remaining Roman territory in Burdingala (Bordeaux) successfully taking the territory. Though soon in 383CE events would spiral into great conflict for Vismar and his Vandalia! As the Sarmatians, still on the move, arrived in Gaul taking the Roman Rebel territory there-obliged in alliance Vismar declared war on the Sarmatians! Though at the same time the Rebels under Gaius, parinoid at the oncoming hordes later declared war ont he Vandals in a bid to throw out all barbarian influeces. He failed in this as the Vandals united all of the Iberia under their rule. Taking Corduba in 389CE and killing Gaius by tieing him to two horses and pulling the tyrant apart.
With that ended, Vismar called on all the chiefs and warlords in Vandalia to muster their people to face off the Sarmatians who were heading straight for Vandalia....

Socialism Part 3: Shades of Socialist Government
General | Posted 16 years agoi think the Socialist brand ina whole has been marred by its more 'Evil' examples in the world like the USSR or Burma.
The Socialist forms of government come about through different ways and have different flavors in my own view.
Communist and Dictatorships crop up in countries that have very little histories of Democracy at at all and/or through Violent Uprisings of a old Oppressive Regime. Like the USSR which before was the horribly bad Tsar Russian Empire or China which went from hundreds of Years Old Kingdom to a Young Republic that was marred by Nationalist Right-Wing hard Fisted leaders (Chiang-Kai-Shek).
While the more milder Socialist or at least Socialist tinged (Welfare States, etc) come about through Democratic Means in countries that have had long histories of democracy or at least political liberalism. Take the West European countries such as the United kingdom and France for example as well as Portugal which did had on and off short lived democracies but in the '70s threw off a Authoritarian Corpratist Dictatorship and the Colonial Empire. It did go through a brief period of uncertainty but Moderate heads took the victory and now we have todays Portugal
You see, the Socialist or COmmunist Dictatorships seem to always crop up through violent revolution (USSR, NK, Vietnam, China, etc) while the Peaceful Democratic ones come about through Democracy (India and Portugal) and likewise if the public doesn't like it the Democratic country can outvote and out do the Socialist Parties (UK, France).
If you argue that because the US has welfare and the bailouts of Bush and Obama then the US is Socialist. Or going much farther back the Progressive Era which introduced unprecedented levels of Government Intervention into the economy but also established such things as Child Labor Laws, Minimum Wage, Voting Rights for Women, Conservationism, and the Pure Food and Drug Acts. Most enacted mostly under Teddy Roosevelt! A Republican President!!!!
Now in these Successfuly Socialist/Leaning and Democratic States we have something of a balance bewteen Socialist Ideals and Capitalist Ideals. They are self-limiting to each other. Socialism Limits the Excesses of Capitalism that manifest as Social Darwinism, Greed, and Corprate Evils (Monopolies, Enron, etc) through people and government intervention. While Capitalism promotes economic activity making it possible to raise up one's living status and the freedom of personal opinion as Democracy thus eliminating any possible silly Dictatorship takeovers or radical changes to the economic and political make-up of the government and society.
Thus a Purely Socialist Government would be Marxist and a Purely Socialist one would be Corpratist.
Seeing as the United States is neither Marxist or Coproatist it is a Centerist. A Social Democracy.
Here from Wikipedia is the Idealology of Social Democracy that Democratic Soicalists support-
"A mixed economy consisting of both private enterprise and publicly owned or subsidized programs of education, health care, child care and related social services for all citizens.
An extensive system of social security (although usually not to the extent advocated by socialists), with the stated goal of counteracting the effects of poverty and insuring the citizens against loss of income following illness, unemployment or retirement.
Government bodies that regulate private enterprise in the interests of workers and consumers by ensuring labor rights (i.e. supporting worker access to trade unions), consumer protections, and fair market competition.
Environmentalism and environmental protection laws; for example, funding for alternative energy resources and laws designed to combat global warming.
A value-added/progressive taxation system to fund government expenditures.
A secular and a socially progressive policy.
Immigration and multiculturalism.
Fair trade over free trade.
A foreign policy supporting the promotion of democracy, the protection of human rights and where possible, effective multilateralism.
Advocacy of social justice, human rights, social rights, civil rights and civil liberties. "
Can you tell me something on this list that the United States does not have?

Tea Protesters Metro FAIL LAWL
General | Posted 16 years agohttp://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2009/.....metro-service/
So then.....Tea Party protestors are complaining about the lack of...government-run services.
Now -what else can happen to make this story even more funny?
Well....
Back in July HR3288, a Transportation and HUD appropriations bill, came up for a vote. It included $150 million for emergency maintenance funding for the DC Metro.
Brady voted against it.
http://www.govtrack.us/congress/vot.....vote=h2009-637
I went on the Metro myself a few weeks back for the first time and I had a grand time-Free Parking on Weekends!

Soclaism PT2
General | Posted 16 years agoSome people are missing my point, I know what Socialism is and I know what Communism is and I am fully aware of the histories of both. We have alot of Socialism nature in our government and society (see list of last journal) but it seems to be vilified through its bad relationship with the USSR's, NK's, Cuba's etc etc's Communism (thats the problem with people thinking he is some EVOL dictator, they cAn't seem to disentangle Socialism from Communism).
Basicly I'm saying here what Colin Powell said about Obama and Islam.
Obama is not a Muslim, but what would be the problem if he was?
Obama is not a true Socialist, but what would be the problem if he was?
The fact that people seem to hate Socialism so much but elected Obama (he didn't run on the Socialist Party platform or nomination) and want all the listed things of Socialism is kind of screwy and now accuse him of being a Socialist which he isn't in the sense people are thinking is screwy.

Socialism
General | Posted 16 years agoJust curious, to all you folk whats Socialism to you? Me as someone being just young enough to not really remember the whole Cold War deal I'm not sure the "Fear" of socialism is really commiting to me well. Whats it with socialism? Is it the use of higher tax dollars or the overthrow of the CEOs and Middle Class?
I mean so many of the things in our society are socialist in nature. Highways- Run and Managed by the Government. Public Schools-Run and Managed by the Government. Social Security and Medicare-Run and Managed by the Government. The Armed Forces- Run and Managed by the Government.
The Pledge of Allegiance was written by a Socialist. Should we replace it? The Gilded Age Presidents are the least respected and remembered Presidents of our History. Wouldn't Theodore Roosevelts Progressivism be seen as Socialism? The Equality of all Races and Genders be Socialism?
I just don't see the devilfication of the Spirit of Socialism. Sure the USSR and all were bad Toletarians though they were Communist and Toletarians who violently overthrew the established governments and didn't care about the people because they weren't elected in to care about the people because they weren't elected at all. We in America are less radical folk so a managed form of Socialism through Voting has brought in so many of the good things I listed above.
