comment How high the death rate on the Berlin Wall compared to other borders?
@SevenSidedDie do you mean it is empathized due to ideological significance alone?

comment How high the death rate on the Berlin Wall compared to other borders?
The description says the number includes not only shot at attempt to cross the border but also the military killed by those who wanted to cross. Anyway, is there information about the number of similar incidents in other borders at similar circumstances? I want to know how they compare to each other.

comment Why did Nazi soldiers do Hitler's bidding?
Germans were known for better following the laws of war in WWI than Russians did. They treated the POWs well and did respect the rights of Jews which many Russians did not. Many people who remembered WWI thought that Germans would behave similarly in WWII. That's why there were so many Soviet POWs initially.

comment Why did Nazi soldiers do Hitler's bidding?
But in the WWI there were no such hostilities which points at the Nazi guilt at least partly. Possibly the soldiers were not needed to be motivated for hostilities, but any normal state usually punishes the soldiers who commit ones. In this light quite indicative the Hitler's amnesty orders and requests to exempt soldiers who commited crimes on POWs of any punishment.

comment What went wrong with India's scientific development as a society?
LOL. Did they have a power loom so to be "as advanced as Europeans"? They simply could not compete with English steam looms by 18th cectury.

It is simply not true that India held scientific leadership somewhere from 1000 BC to 1000 AD

Does it mean that South Tyrol Option Agreement en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Tyrol_Option_Agreement did not exist?
