The Greek Myths ARE pre-Christian White History

Basic Aspects of the Greek Myths
The Greek myths may be divided into two categories:
Divine myths, and Heroic myths.

The Divine myths consist of the tales referring to the gods, such as the creation of the world, the origin of the gods and other tales mainly related to them, such as the castration of Uranus or the Titanomachy. The scene of these tales
includes several places of imaginary nature, such as Tartarus, but refers also to visible places such as Mount Olympus.

The Heroic myths are formed by tales related to kingdoms on earth, heroes and heroines, and the events in these tales are normally located in real geographical places suc
h as Mycenae or Rhodes. The term heroes is to be understood in a broad sense: they may be "warriors, kings, founders, benefactors, questers, or even robbers and pirates." [Joseph Fontenrose. The Ritual Theory of Myth].

The foundation of the myths lies in divine presence, and the Heroic myths are linked to it through three devices:

divine intervention in human affairs
any kind of reference to the gods or to someone related to them
genealogy establishing descent from the gods.

If Germany had won the war, a massive Euro-centric cultural revolution would have taken place, with the Germanic Pan-European Government focusing on the Art and History of th
e Distinguished Ancestors
. A type of European Cultural Renaissance.

Europe, would have been reborn out of her ashes, thrice more beautiful than it was before, with emphasis given on Archaic Pre-Christian Artistic Themes, from Greco-Roman Art to Ancient Heathen Germanic and North Germanic Art, as well as Medieval Ar
chitecture.

In the place of such artistic nightmares of today, such as Centre Georges Pompidou in France, and such emetic art, as the Modern Abstract Art, the Ancient Greek spirit would have prevailed again, and we would have seen such artistic masterpieces like the Statue of Godess Athena at the Acropolis, and the Zeus of Pheidias at Olympia...

What more beautiful there ever existed, than the representations of the Ancient Gods and Godesses of Greece and Rome?

The Aryan Invasion Theory
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan_invasion_theory

According to one fully developed late nineteenth-century form of the theory, as expressed by (source needed here), a Caucasian race of nomadic warriors known as the Aryans, originating in the Caucasus mountains in Central Asia, invaded Northern India and Iran, somewhere between 1800 and 1500 BC. The invaders entered the Indian sub-continent from the mountain passes of the Hindu Kush, possibly on horseback, bringing with them the domesticated horse. The theory further proposes that this race displaced or assimilated the indigenous pre-Aryan peoples and that the bulk of these indigenous people moved to the southern reaches of the subcontinent or became the lower castes of post-Ve
dic society. The Aryans would have brought with them th
eir own Vedic religion, which was codified in the Vedas around 1500 to 1200 BC. Upon arrival in India, the Aryans abandoned their nomadic lifestyle and mingled with the native peoples remaining in the north of India. The victory of the Aryans over the native civilization was quick and complete, resulting in the dominance of Aryan culture and language over the northern part of the subcontinent and considerable influence on parts of the south.

Theory that Vedic Aryan culture originated in India

In recent times a different viewpoint has been proposed: that no such Aryan migration or invasion occurred; that the Indus Valley civilization was the civilization described in the Vedas; and that the Aryans originated in India. Some advocates of this position propose
that the Proto-Indo-European language actually originated in India, from which its earliest speakers spread we
stwards. Others believe that the Indo-European languages originated outside India, but that they spread into India before the development of the Indus Valley Civilisation. On this view, the Indo-Aryan sub-branch of the IE languages evolved within India, along with the beliefs that became Vedic culture.
