Hotel Porin

Koja je sudbina Porina? Pretpostavljam da je azil kratkorocna ad hoc mjera, ali sto ce (i kada) biti s objektom?

Posebno u kontekstu radova na Sarajevskoj i dolaska tramvaja Porin postaje puno atraktivniji.

Hoce li se obnoviti i ponovno biti hotel? Čuo sam špekuliranja i da se razmatra za starački ili studentski dom.

The Battle of Marathon - the what ifs

Listening to the Marathon episodes got me thinking about an alternate history that I'd love to get Tom's (and your!) opinion on.

If the Persians had won at Marathon, if they had then managed to include Greece into their Empire, how would this have impacted the already-under-way rise of a certain young republic on the Apennine peninsula?

How would a Persian-dominated Greece have influenced the power dynamics on Sicily, between Greeks and Carthage? When would have Rome become involved?

Would a Persian-dominated Greece have inevitably led to a massive "world" war between Rome and Achaemenid Persia relatively early in the life of the Roman Republic?

Would Carthage have managed to survive in this constellation?

(playing Rome: Total War clearly influenced my thinking as you can see lol)
