    Political situation before the outbreak of the 30 year war (and the war itself if you like )
    Should be interesting.
    The common culture of a tribe is a sign of its inner cohesion. But tribes are vanishing from the modern world, as are all forms of traditional society. Customs, practices, festivals, rituals and beliefs have acquired a flut and half-hearted quality which reflects our nomadic and rootless existence, predicated as we are on the global air-waves.

    Maybe I could do some research on Hinduism, Sibs. I had to learn about it (well, chose to learn, I had to choose a religion) at school, and I think I can remember some of it. Anything in particular?

    Political Situation Before the 30 years war

    It was a pretty important event in European history - one that i'm sorry to say I know very little about.

    Nice choice, but i'm always interested in the English Civil War, although I must admit my history re: 30 year's war is sadly lacking. All I know is that someone got thrown out of a window.
