I read that once upon a time a squirrel could run from Brittany to Russia without touching the ground, so many trees

Treebeard told me something similar after I escaped from the uruk hai.

what is this forest you speak of?

Roman sources tell us the Hercynian forest was so dense soldiers could barely walk outside the roads. How could Germans even live in it with such cold weather?

Google it.

I can't. Just tell me please.

There were lots of trees.

>I can't.

Why not?

It was warm as fuck during that time period

Was it a jungle? Tropical?

Trees grew on seas in ancient times?

What a prick

No m8

Think a REALLY nice summer in New England

this triggered me

>mfw people say mongols couldn't conquer europe because of forests

>not sure if polish or australian

Are you fucking retarded? Of course they did, the world was less dense back then so trees could float on water.

Summer has just began and i'm already tired of it.

>mfw retards think mongols are zerg tier conquerors with no equal

guess you're fucked then m8

is that why germans are so naturally tanned compared to brits and slavs?
