Finally making the move to this platform!
I'm a historian, mostly working on the connections and similarities between the Colombian Independence and the Greek Revolution.
I also talk about sports, nature, music and politics.
Posting in Spanish or English, sometimes in Greek, Turkish or Italian.

Un apunte no siempre conocido y muy importante sobre el nazismo es que este reposó en buena medida en la colaboración de la población, una colaboración en la delación tan excesiva que la gran mayoría de denuncias, que escondían ajustes de cuentas de todo tipo, fueron sobreseídas.

El 9 de febrero es el día de la lengua griega. Por ello traigo un ejemplo de paleografía griega del siglo XVII de un proceso judicial en el Archivo estatal de Venecia. Recordando que por siglos, la lengua griega fue difundida desde la Serenissima. @adribrulotesgr.bsky.social

Que estemos debatiendo si Groenlandia se la queda EEUU o la sigue ocupando Dinamarca como si la población nativa Inuit (el 88% de los habitantes) no tuviera nada que opinar al respecto, indica hasta qué punto tenemos interiorizado el colonialismo.
