Is it really dramatic? Then just put it in the main feed.
Is it chuddy? (Be honest.) Then /h/chudrama.
Is it from back in old boomer times or before?
This is the place for it.
Feel free to talk about history here at
whatever level of seriousness you feel like.

Yemen is so fricking interesting, it seems like just a no-mans-land that superpowers use as a weapons testing ground. I remember going with it out of spite for the “choose a country and make a tri-fold board about it” project everyone has to do around 5th grade but then having a lot of fun with it because their national bird may as well be an RPG rocket.

Back in the late 2000s-early 2010s internet, Yemen was portrayed as a gun owners paradise, I shit you not Yemen was mentioned a lot of times on guncel internet circles as one of the most gun owner-friendly countries outside of the US, !oldstrags any of you remember this before the Houthis seized power in 2011-2014?, like, there was a guncel forum talking about how much of a heckin wholesome freedom-loving utopia Yemen was, there were some pics of a gun market, and I can clearly remember a photo of an old guy wielding an MG-42, while an amerimutt chudcel said that this had capitvated him, and that he was moving to Yemen?!

It still is a chud's paradise. Get yourself 3 tradwives 30 years younger than xirself, have 45 children, anti-aircraft weapons in your yard, no trains to be found, and they de-jewed the place centuries ago.
Realtalk, Sanaa has some beautiful landscape and architecture though. The Houthis are clownshoes though, lol at Burger radlibs supporting
them because they made a PR effort to improve the standing of the regime in the Arab world

I talked to a guy in the mid 2000s who had gone there to visit family. He said there wasn't much crime because everyone had lots of guns. So I guess chud paradise really did exist for a while there.

Short answer is this separation is not new. South Yemen and the YAR were a Cold War thing with almost the exact borders. I'm pretty sure Egypt even intervened to keep the YAR intact during the 60's to the tune of tens of thousands of soliders.

I hate this channel, the topics are interesting but half the videos are looking at one single picture of a map and the camera zooming and orbiting randomly so it seems like something is happening.
Could be a podcast, and everybody knows podcasts are for bottoms.
Good post though.
