May 10	awarded	Commentator
May 10	comment	Emigration restrictions in history I'll have a look - unfortunately that's purely from memory of studying it at A-level, so it may take some hunting
Apr 12	answered	Did archers synchronize fire? Why?
Apr 11	awarded	Necromancer
Mar 19	comment	To what can we trace the idea of “civic responsibility”? The earliest example in my personal knowledge is the ancient Greek "polis", but there may well be earlier examples of civic responsibility.
Feb 20	answered	What precipitated the rise of social safety nets in the United States?
Feb 20	answered	Did emperor Kangxi indirectly contribute to China's massive population and subsequent problem?
Jan 7	answered	Emigration restrictions in history
Oct 25	answered	Was the French philosopher Pierre Bayle a Calvinist believer or an atheist?
Oct 5	awarded	Necromancer
Oct 4	answered	Why did Civil War officers tell their men to “aim low”?
Oct 2	comment	What is the basic structure of British Politics? Don't forget that if a policy is too unpopular, or the whips ride too roughshod over MPs they can rebel - this has occurred in the past, and can bring down a government.
Oct 2	answered	Great Britain's role in Islamic Iran
Oct 2	answered	Was Antarctica a factor in the Falklands war?
Oct 1	comment	Why did Operation Market Garden go ahead when the allies knew German armor was in the area? It means that any bolding, italics etc is inserted by Luke, not the original author.
Sep 28	comment	What is the origin of the English Ship Building Philosophy? Apart from the cites issue which you note, you use a lot of jargon, presumably Marxist in origin, which you do not explain. This makes your answer much harder to interpret for the general reader.
Sep 28	awarded	Critic
Sep 27	answered	When did aircraft carriers eclipse battleships as the “King of the seas”?
Sep 25	answered	Could the anti-Napoleonic forces have done better by uniting earlier before Waterloo?
Sep 25	comment	Did the Gallic army besieged in Alesia conduct itself well when expecting relief? Added point - internal division. If those inside Alesia represented Vercingetorix's personal power base, and the relieving force were allies, he may have felt it necessary to keep his own force reasonably intact, lest he lose all influence amongst other Gauls in the aftermath of victory.
