La Campagne antiesclavagiste lancée en 1888 par le Cardinal Lavigerie fut mise à profit. La Conférence antiesclavagiste de Bruxelles en 1890 fournissait une excellente façade éthique et humanitaire à l’entreprise de Léopold II : il fallait, en ouvrant le continent au commerce et à ce qu’on appelait « la » civilisation, le débarrasser de la traite des esclaves qui sévissait par l’Est. Opérant à partir de Zanzibar (actuelle Tanzanie), des marchands arabisés, notamment le célèbre Tippo Tip, s’emparaient de vastes régions à l’est du Congo, d’où ils menaient leurs expéditions esclavagistes. À partir de 1888, Tippo Tip collabora quelque temps avec le gouvernement du Congo avant d’être lâché par celui-ci.

Je passe aussi sur les péripéties de ce régime Léopoldien qui, pour des raisons de rentabilité économique, mit progressivement en place un système impitoyable d’exploitation du caoutchouc et de l’ivoire.[1]

Es muy relevante que el mapa ha sido creado por un títere, porque este títere es bloquedo por evasión de bloqueo. Una descripción del usuario se encuentra en en:Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse/WorldCreaterFighter.
Además, "todos los artículos deben tener referencias suficientes" (WP:VER), y si una imagen no se puede verificar, no hay otra solución: Debemos eliminarla. La imagen no está correctamente referenciada, porque es . El mismo problema se ve en commons:File:Haplogroup_R1b_(Y-DNA).PNG. En la discución sobre el asunto de eliminarlo, a lo menos dos participiantes que votaron en favor del mapa dijeron que es WP:IO ("original research", "creative process"). En Commons no existe norma que prohiba IO, pero en WP sí hay. Por eso, hay que referenciar cada región del mapa (como por ejemplo, se lo hizo con el mapa commons:File:Languages_Europe.svg o elimar los dos.
Un ejemplo para mostrar la importancia de que cada región sea referenciada: Antes del 26 de Augusto el artículo en:Bashkirs usó Haplogroup_R1b_(Y-DNA).PNG para demostrar que los Bashquir viven en una cierta región. Eso puede convertirse facilmente en exigencias políticas, y por eso es importante que las informaciones que nosotros presentamos al lector sean ciertas y verificables.
A certain region of such a map can be used to argue for a certain point of view on national heritage, a highly political issue. A similar map has been used in that way, e.g. in this version of en:Bashkirs. The problem is that the individual regions of the map cannot be attributed to a single source. A similar map has been called OR by participants in this discussion on Commons.

Isolation by distance, but with exceptions due to social or religious barriers[3]

Today, many people assume that humans can be grouped biologically into "primeval" groups, corresponding to our notion of "races"... But this long-held view about "race" has just in the last years been proven wrong.

— David Reich, Who We Are and How We Got Here, (Introduction, pg. xxii).

From Human genetic variation: The lack of discontinuities in genetic distances between human populations, absence of discrete branches in the human species, and striking homogeneity of human beings globally, imply that there is no scientific basis for inferring races or subspecies in humans, and for most traits, there is much more variation within populations than between them.[4][5][6][7][8][9]Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).

  • How photography adds credibility to pseudo-science: Visualising invisibility: photography and physical anthropology in Norway - quote from the text: "What happens when identification based on inherent, genetically transferred, foolproof racial principles proves defective? To those committed to racial principles, these “inconvenient realities” do not alter the fixation of their principles but rather give rise to attempts to fine tune their distinctions and definitions and to overcome the obstacles in reality. Particularly important is the gradual replacement of physiognomy by internal, often latent, indicators not easily applied to identification and representation (Morris-Reich 2016, 24)."

... and the idea that it weakens Lewontin's disproof of biological race is long since debunked [2][3][4][5]. We have an entire article on it, in fact. (from a reply by Joe Roe)

Howard hypothesis deleted

I deleted the sections on Howard's hypothesis for the following reasons:

  • The title of this article is Names and titles of God in the New Testament, not "Howard hypothesis". But most of the article was about the "Howard hypothesis", this is WP:COATRACK.
  • A WP article should follow the mainstream, in this case the mainstream of biblical scholarship, see WP:MAINSTREAM. A search for , JSTOR renders five results, none of them connected with the Bible. At scholar there are more results, two of them connected with the Bible, but not with George Howard.
  • WP:NPOV forbids ample coverarge of a small minority view.

Crimea

[edit]

Academic researchers note that it's Russian propaganda which characterizes Euromaidan as a coup, and the actual military coup was performed by Russia in Ukrainian Crimea on the 27th February 2014, when Russian military seized Crimean parliament and government buildings and replaced Ukrainian elected officials with Russian-controlled figures.[10][11][12]

After the overthrow of the highly corrupt[13] regime of Russian-leaning president Viktor Yanukovych in the Revolution of Dignity in 2014, the Russian president Vladimir Putin

Ukrainians and Russians have a long history of interactions and mutual influences, which is often used to explain and also to justify the Russo-Ukrainian War.

The legacy of the Kyivan Rus'

[edit]

Ukrainians and Russians both see the Kyivan Rus' (Russian: Kievan Rus') as the place where the history of their nations, states, and Orthodox churches originated.[14] Starting in the 12th century, the Kyivan Rus' disintegrated into several centres of power, the most important of which were Vladimir-Suzdal in the north-east and Galicia–Volhynia in the south-west.[15] Danylo of Galicia–Volhynia was crowned "King of Rus'" (rex Russiae) by a papal legate in 1253.[16]

According to the Russian national narrative, the Russian state was founded in Kiev (Kyiv), then - in the 13th century - its centre was transferred to the principality of Vladimir-Suzdal and soon afterwards to Moscow.[17] This narrative of a common history of state, people and church spanning more than 1000 years is still prevalent in Russia today. It includes the notion that Ukrainians are a part of the Russian people, having no history of their own.[18] Until very recently, Western historiography mostly followed the Russian narrative, using terms like Old Russia or Kievan Russia instead of Kyivan Rus' and turning a blind eye to the existence of Ukrainians and their history.[19]

On the other hand, Mykhailo Hrushevsky, the founder of modern Ukrainian historiography,[20] claimed the legacy of the Rus' exclusively for Ukraine, arguing in an essay published 1904 that the true successor state of the Rus' was not Vladimir-Suzdal, but Galicia–Volhynia which passed on the legacy to Poland and Lithuania.[21] Hrushevsky compared the relationship between the Kievan and Muscovite states to the relationship between Rome and its Gallic provinces.[21]

On the occasion of the milennial of the death of prince Vladimir the Great of Kiev (as the Russians call him) or Volodymyr the Great of Kyiv (as the Ukrainians call him) in 2015, the presidents of Russia and of Ukraine both claimed the legacy of the Kyivan Rus' exclusively for their own people. Vladimir Putin said that Vladimir "cleared the way for the establishment of a strong, centralized Russian state",[22] while his Ukrainian counterpart Petro Poroshenko quoted Hrushevsky's formula of the "Kyivan Rus-Ukraine".[23]

From an academic point of view, this dispute is unproductive because national categories cannot be applied to the Middle Ages, and there were neither Russians nor Ukrainians.[24]

Mongol and Polish rule

[edit]

After the Mongol invasion, those parts of Rus' that would later become Ukraine came under the control of Lithuania and Poland, while the north-east around the emerging centre of Moscow was under Mongol control. Historian Serhii Plokhy agrees that Russian religion, written language and arts, system of laws and ruling dynasty originated in Kyiv. He points out however that linking Russian ethnicity, spoken language and culture to those of Kyiv is "problematic".[25] Both the princes of Lithuania and of Muscovy claimed to be Princes of all Rus'.[26] The legal and bureaucratic traditions of the Kievan Rus' were inherited by Lithuania, but not by Muscovy,[27] where a new legal system centered on a very powerful tsar was being developed.[28][29]

Pereiaslav Agreement

[edit]

Russian historian Nikolay Ustryalov (1805 – 1870) created the myth that the 1654 Pereiaslav Agreement meant the "reunification" of the "Little Russian" and "Great Russian" people.[30]

Russian Empire

[edit]

Historian Serhii Plokhy finds the roots of XXI-century Russian war with Ukraine in years and centuries before, in XIX - XX centuries collapse of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union. Plokhy detects and observes patterns of similarities between the current war and previous historical events.[31]

Soviet Ukraine

[edit]
Starved peasants on a street in Kharkiv, 1933

The politics of Joseph Stalin's government brought about a catastrophic famine in 1932–33. Estimates range from 6 to 7 million dead, among them about 3.5 million Ukrainians and 1.5 million Kazakhs.[32] There is an ongoing debate as to whether the famine—called Holodomor in Ukraine—can be labelled as a genocide.[33]

Independent Ukraine

[edit]

The 2011–2013 Russian protests which were sparked by election fraud in a similar way as Ukraine's Orange Revolution, increased Russian president Vladimir Putin's fear of being deposed by a colour revolution.[34]

Travelers from Moscow and St. Petersburg found that the locals in Kyiv and environs spoke a language different from theirs, sang different songs, and had a distinct culture.
