ITT: Historical figures who deserved better endings

I'll start with Hannibal

Phillip II
Pertinax

...

>inb4 hitler

Trotski

The Romanovs in general

Hector and Achilles were some of the greatest figures in western canon yet they both died from such lame things. I think its cooler sometimes when a hero like Alexander the Great dies then went on to live happily ever after or whatever the fuck.

Even Napoleon started to wish he died in Russia.

alexander the great
>build massive empire from scratch
>collapses cuz generals were cucks

They might not even be remembered as much if they lived out in exile until death. A huge part of their myth was the execution.

Carthage deserved a better ending

This

You know it to be true

...

I couldn't see them ever growing larger though. The best they could have hoped for was becoming a vassal of Rome.

ITT people who got what they deserved.

>As a member of the Socialist Revolutionaries (SRs), Kaplan viewed Lenin as a ‘traitor to the revolution’, when his Bolsheviks banned her party. On 30 August 1918, she approached Lenin as he was leaving a Moscow factory, and fired three shots, badly injuring him. Interrogated by the Cheka, she refused to name any accomplices, and was shot on 3 September. The incident did much to provoke the imminent civil war.

Nah, that fuck deserved everything he got for betraying the workers.

>Didn't get given a piece of the pie
>Says that means he betrayed the revolution
She was just a jealous cunt.

Fuck
If his generals weren't gayer than he was and actually stayed married to those persian babes macedonia would have lasted potentially hundreds of years

Socrates
Cicero
Jesus
Moctezuma, Cuauhtemoc
Atahualpa
Charles II. of Spain (deserved a better everything)
Sitting Bull
Hussein, Sharif of Mecca
Sophie Scholl, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Claus von Stauffenberg
Anne Frank
Patrice Lumumba
Salvador Allende

That's all i can think of for now

Socrates got the ultimate ending. His prophecy that his execution would open more and louder mouths than his was fulfilled

>Anne Frank
You were doing well ... and you jump with this fucking bullshit.

Anyway.

Hitler

Caracalla. All he wanted was to take a piss

what are you suggesting?
an innocent little girl deserved to be worked to death in a concentration camp?

>this triggers the Carthaboo

>his people get cucked by the Romans fair and square
>daddy makes him swear an oath to stay forever butt hurt
>crosses the fucking alps with elephants in tow
>crushes Romans using Jew tactics but refuses to march on Rome because >muh Italian allies
>engages in almost 20 years of protracted attritional warfare
>gets cucked by a hotheaded young general
>dies in exile and disgrace

He got exactly what he deserved.

Hereclius

>Encircling your retarded opponent who literally tried Zerg tactics against you is now a Jewish trick

Hmmmmmmmmm

that gave me a sensible chuckle

iktf fellow Byzaboo

If only the Romans and the Persians weren't always at each other's throats and hadn't just ended a massively costly war.

That rivalry really did cost the whole world.

Of course, the roach comes to defend the honor of his fellow semites.

dub dubs confirm Hannibal for cuck?

...

Pls nerf Khalid ibn al-walid

Can't argue with those dubs. Hannibal's probably is that he was too clever for his own good and out thought himself.

>Cicero
I agree wholeheartedly

...

Marcus Livius Drusus
Yamamoto

>Marcus Livius Drusus
Gracchus was objectively superior though

...

Drusus acted more constitutionally. Not saying they were wrong, but the Gracchi kinda had it coming.

Seleucus stayed with his Persian qt and his dynasty held on to Persia and Syria for a decently long time. really activates my almonds

(you)

...

...

He deserved it for causing another damn civil war. Germanicus on the other hand did LITERALLY nothing besides kill germans and fuck his wife and produce shittons of children and be loyal to Tiberius. But then the fucking paranoid Tiberius's orders had to go and poison him and then his son Caligula was sent to Tiberius's rape island and then his wife had to campaign her entire life to try and get retribution. Fuck Tiberius.

Google the way this man died

...

Aut Viam Inveniam Aut Faciam

>ywn hear about a revived Principate in the 4th century

It really does honestly,

Credit where credit is do Fabius and Scipio knew their shit and knew how to get shit done around Hannibal.

But Carthage and Hannibal still deserved better damn it.

>When you only fought for freedom then get deposed and your wife and child get captured by a Roman Legate and your son likely dies as a Gladiator

>and then a statue is erected in your honor on a different continent in the middle of nowhere millennia after the fact

The Austrian emperor of mexico

Joan of arc

This madman

...

Marie Antoinette

Thomas Cromwell

Seneca
Hemingway

decius mus. He should have survived :(

He did nothing wrong.

He couldn't have taken Rome if he attacked

Poor guy probably didn't even have the time to have a proper statue built

KEk

DAMN YOU MAAAASSINISSAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

Truth told. Had Nicolas II listened to him the Tsardom would still exist today. No commies. No nazis. No breakdown of traditional values in the west. Colonies would peacefully transition to independence a mere 20 years later after economic development like Australia and Canada did. The world would be a capitalist playground and everyone would have a share. It is like God was speaking through him.

Carolus Rex

>implying that he didn't get the type of end that he wanted
He probably would have wanted to die actually in battle, but I think it would have been worse if he had died an elderly invalid

delet this pls

No one posted him yet? Really?

...

This

He littertaly was the driving force in the English reformation. Henry the 8th fucking betrayed the man that raised him thousands.

Lafayette.

...

She was a kike, so yes, she deserved it.

Ow the edge.

This, he didn't deserve to be executed.

Only if half from what you said was true

Ow the truth

no

I was surprised to read about what happened to him after the Revolutionary War.

Zenobia

And Boudica

The Red Barron. AA shot him down, apparently.

What happened to him? Too lazy to google

t. Member of the Iranian diaspora

I agree tho

...

Aurelian did nothing wrong.

Even the most hardcore Carthageboo can't deny that Zama was truly the zenit of Hannibal's career. It wasn't the decisive victory he planned for, it wasn't the victory against the odds he became legendary for, no, it was the moment that for the first time in his life, he met a worthy rival, a true match for him.

now this one? this one actually had to hurt him.

>FURTHERMORE

>no love for mah man wallenstein
>no love for mah men gustav II adolphus

I wish /pol/ and it's inhabitants just didn't exist

Mussolini and ole' Adolf.

Pyrrhus of Epirus desu
