KINGDOM OF THE DARDANIANS Latin: Regnum Dardaniae ~ A polity in the central Illyrian Peninsula in the region of Dardania during classical antiquity. It is named after the Dardani, a Paleo-Balkan tribe that formed the core of the Dardanian polity. Dardania was centered around present-day Kosova, but also included parts of North Macedonia (northwestern area), Serbia (Novi Pazar) and Albania (Kuk?s, Tropoja, Has). The eastern parts of Dardania were at the Thraco-Illyrian contact zone. Marcus Licinius Crassus, grandson of the triumvir Marcus Crassus, officially annexed the kingdom in 28 BC while on campaign against the Dacians and Bastarnae. The region was subsequently incorporated into the province of Moesia in 15 BC, and later in 293 AD, as the province of Dardania. Tribal aristocracy and pre-urban development first emerged in Dardania from the 6th-5th centuries BC. This proto-urban development was followed by the creation of urban centers and the emergence of craftsmanship, and a Dardanian polity began to develop from the fourth century. Map is approximate extent of the Kingdom of the Dardanians, late 3rd century BC, prior to their conquest of Paeonia and Macedonia. #kosova #dardania #dardanians #dardanianhistory #albania #albanians #albanianlanguage #albanianlands #albanianhistory

As an MIT alum and a fellow Armenian, I was incredibly proud and humbled to listen to Noubar Afeyan's MIT graduation speech. Watch it below, and here are the main nuggets of wisdom I took home: - Imagine: we can't get extraordinary results from reasonable thinking. Embrace paranoid optimism, see the opportunities in every challenge. Take leaps of faith; what is faith if not having belief without facts. - Innovate: imagination in action. Be a scholar and a solver: be curious, keep learning and think of the real life applications of these learnings. Question what you know, listen to people who think differently and surface the blueprints for solutions together. I guess this further supports MIT's motto: mens et manus, mind and hand. -Immigrate: Leave the familiar circumstance behind you and embrace the unchartered territories. This will equip you to navigate obstacles and build that grit and resilience so needed in life. Proud #MIT alum. Proud #Armenian. https://lnkd.in/dRf_PiRh
