I have two unrelated history questions.?

Question

Here's the first one.

1. If WW2 never started, how long do you think (in your own opinion) the Weimar Republic in Germany would've lasted?

2. If the ancient Assyrian army met up with the Roman army (considering that they were the best armies of the ancient world), who would win (again, this is in your own opinion)?

You may answer one or two or both questions.

Answer 1

The Romans would have beaten the Assyrians (I think you mean the armies of the Neo-Assyrian Empire?). However, the premise that the Assyrian and Roman armies were the two best of the ancient world is questionable. What of the Macedonian armies of Philip II, Alexander the Great and the Successors? Arguably more powerful and efficient than those of Assyrian kings. I think the Romans would have found it more difficult defeating them in a tactical confrontation.
