Between AD 270 and the late 500s, the Roman Empire declined and fell to Germanic invaders, while a new, Byzantine Empire arose in the East. At least, that's what it looks like. But states and peoples are different things. Sometimes a founding people dies, but its state lives on. That is what happened in Rome in the 3rd century. The original Roman people lost power to a new, hungry race of frontier-fighters: the so-called Illyrian Soldier-Emperors. Contrary to the common opinion, the Illyrian-Danubian emperors weren't the outcome of increasing "diversity" or "tolerance" of the Roman State. They were a new, as-yet-unnamed people, who--abandoned by the central government--took matters into their own hands. From Aurelian "the Restorer of the World" to Diocletian, Constantine the Great, Theodosius I and Justinian, these "Illyrians" built a state-within-a-state, kept the Roman Empire alive for two centuries, and carved out a new empire from its ruins. They restructured army, shook up the administration, and oversaw the most radical religious reform in European history. Theirs is the real history of the "late Roman" and "early Byzantine" empires.Only amidst the chaos of the Persian and Islamic invasions of the early 600s did the 300-year-old Illyrian regime succumb... when they were finally overthrown by a new breed of Cappadocian and Armenian officers.Join Gregory Conte for this myth-destroying lecture, as we examine the real meaning of Rome's last centuries; and the beginning of the 1000-year "Byzantine" state.

Julius Caesar resolved the Roman constitutional crisis the only way possible: by destroying the republic. Is America entering into a similar crisis?Join Greg and Romanized Visigoth (Roman) as we mull over the Roman past and the Faustian future from a Spenglerian viewpoint. Is Donald Trump the sort of fake-Caesar we Europeans and Americans can expect? Or can we shake off our Jewish overlords and build a civilization true to our own nature?Merry Christmas and Happy Yule.Roman's article in the Occidental Observer:https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2024/11/10/a-pretender-appropriate-for-the-age-donald-trumps-ersatz-caesarism/Previous Prussian Socialism episodes about Rome: https://odysee.com/@gregoryconte:2/Prussian-Socialism-Episode-15-The-Rise-of-Rome-and-the-War-with-Hannibal:2https://odysee.com/@gregoryconte:2/Prussian-Socialism-Episode-16-The-Disintegration-of-the-Roman-Republic:1

Prussian Socialism Episode 41: The Beerhall Putsch Trial of Adolf Hitler and Erich Ludendorff 1924Sixteen men killed. Dozens wounded. Blood on the cobblestones. The movement shattered. The police chasing down survivors. But the "Beerhall Putsch" was only half the story. The real test was in the courtroom. In 24 tense days of witness-examinations, speeches, and arguments--interrupted by hours of mind-numbing boredom--Adolf Hitler faced down the Bavarian authorities and the hateful and ignorant international press. In the streets, physical courage. In the courtroom, moral conviction. It takes both kinds of bravery to change history. While many Nationalists had had the courage to stare down the rifle-barrels of the Bavarian State Police, only Adolf Hitler had the steadfastness to lead them to victory in the trial that followed.His case? It is not my comrades and I who are guilty of treason... it's the Weimar government! Those traitors, who signed Germany's freedom away with the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler also blamed Bavarian State Commissar Gustav von Kahr. Because Kahr and the police had lead the Nazis to believe that they had official support.Sounds a bit like Donald Trump's treacherous actions on January 6th, no?The 1924 "Hitler-Prozess" made the NSDAP. No longer would the movement seek mere reactionary aims. Instead, it would shoot for revolutionary change!Join Gregory Conte and activist-organizer Rainhart of Nationalist Coalition as we discuss the trial and its outcome. What other parallels can we draw to today? What else can we lessons can we apply to today?_________________________________________________________________________For Prussian Socialism's coverage of the putsch itself, see episode 35:https://odysee.com/@gregoryconte:2/Prussian-Socialism-35-The-Hitlerputsch-100-Years:6_________________________________________________________________________You can buy Greg's detailed, rigorous and thoroughly Hitlerian German language textbook "Sieg Heil: German for Beginners" from Invisible Empire Publishers.https://www.invisibleempirepublishing.com/books-2/pre-order-sieg-heil-german-for-beginners-by-gregory-conte/The German textbook you always wanted, but never dared to ask for.

Why did the July 20, 1944 coup fail? In his 1981 book "Verschwörung und Verrat um Hitler" Major General Otto Ernst Remer--the main officer responsible for crushing the plot--accuses the conspirators of cowardice and gross incompetence. Why didn't Stauffenberg check that Hitler had actually died? Why did the plotters fail to ensure smooth communications? Why did someone not just walk up and shoot Hitler?In this lecture, Gregory Conte summarizes Remer's arguments. Fundamentally, the conspirators lacked the initiative and attention to detail of front-line troops. They failed to do obvious contingency planning. They failed to come up with a workable plan. And worse, once there was no turning back, their cowardice and indecision prevented them from doing the one thing that might have saved their lives: succeeding. For over 50 years after that fateful day, Remer expressed no regret for his actions. If you want to overthrow a legitimate, popular leader for personal gain in the service of monarchism, reaction, capitalism and Jewish finance, you'd better bring your A-game. The sad part is, that the mentality of the July 20th conspirators is now the mentality that dominates the governments of all Western nations--treason, deceit, blackmail and cowardice. The only way to put a stop to these rats is the same way Remer did... by employing the honor- and duty-bound warrior ethos.

Spengler and RussiaOswald Spengler is known for pessimism. In Decline of the West he argued that European civilization had exhausted its philosophical and artistic potential. In the coming centuries, the only fields of endeavor for truly creative men would be applied, not theoretical. Politics, technology, law.But Spengler did leave open one possibility. Not for Europe itself, but for the rise of a new culture “between the Vistula and the Amur”. Russia. Greg Conte and Romanized Visigoth discuss Russian culture and history and how it fits in with that of Europe. Is Russia an exciting new frontier, or a deadly threat to our ailing civilization?

On November 9, 1923, Adolf Hitler and the NSDAP tried to throw of the yoke of international Jewish finance. Their attempt was defeated, but sowed the seed for the future Third Reich.

What is a Nation? Is it a state, a language-group, a race, or something else entirely? For years, the right-wing has riven itself with moronic disputes about whether this or that group is White... somehow overlooking entirely that race is only part of what makes a Nation.With reference to Hitler, Spengler, Yockey and Friedrich Meinecke, Gregory and realize that Our Nation is the yet-to-be-named Volk comprising Whites in North America, Western Europe and Australia, and its destiny must be the overthrow of international Jewish financial power. Either that, or dissolution and death.Thanks to de.metapedia.org for the excellent definition of "Nation":Nation (Volk): a human community that is linked by the same descent, the same racial basis, the same language and culture, the same customs, a common homeland and common fate (history) as well as collective historical consciousness.

For most historians, German history is Prussian history. The Prussian tradition from Frederick William I onward explains the high proficiency of German armies from 1870-1945. But what about the other German states? What about Austria and Switzerland? Was the Prussian style of war--emphasizing speed, offensive power and detailed planning--the inevitable outcome of German history? In his new book "Iron and Blood", historian Peter Wilson upturns this now conventional view. He attacks historians like Robert Citino (author of "The German Way of War") as being too focused on Prussia and too deterministic. Gregory Conte and William discuss Wilson's book and argue about what its new views might mean for the people of Western Europe and America and their evil and incompetent governments.
