Protip: The French won the hundred year war

The anime is set after Joan of arc's death IIRC, and while it certainly isn't perfectly accurate, the only glaring inaccuracy I noticed were the gambesons having holes at the armpits, which means that they were probably based on reenactment replicas made by people who didn't know how to sew them properly.

You are aware that the Battle of Crecy took place in 1346, and the anime is taking place after Jeanne D'arc's death (1431), right?

>>119682429
It takes place in the later stages of the war. Wich was pretty much perfid albion getting raped 24h/24h and not wanting to conclude peace on France's terms to stop the war because they were too buttdevastated to realize they no longer had any chance of winning.
>>119682301
Haven't watched the show yet, but I don't see anything inacurate here, unless it's supposed to be about a famous battle.
Also, I read a bit of the manga, and it's definitly not to be taken too seriously.

>>119682429
1. We saw one French knight, he gave a speech to the peasant levy and mercenary foot, from horseback.
2, So? They wouldn't have been among the infantry we saw anyway.
3. This is set after even Joan has been burned, they've learned a bit from Agincourt, Crecy and Poiters by now
4. See above, this is late war

What bullshit, this is during the reign of Henry VI being a pacifistic moron whose weak and ineffectual leadership eventually brings about the War of the Roses, but in France his and Beaufort's policy of trying to bring about peace fails spectacularly as the French realise that with such a king they can get back their land and then some.

Nah, I think they stopped being good after the revolutions and ww1 seeing as they're the only country to revolt against the king, the revolution the general who led them, another king and the revolution after that all in a row.

France just lost a war in Vietnam when Algeria entered the equation, and colonial splendor isn't quite so alluring when there are kebabs blowing shit up and having gun battles in the streets of Paris.

>>119684729
Probably not--cavalry was still very useful and practical until the lines solidified, so until the battle of the marne ended and both sides dug in, the cavalry most likely still played major roles, after which they probably just got rid of the horses and served as infantry thereafter.

>>119688844

Most witches in the middle ages were men, so there's that.
Think less Buffy type and more modern African witchdoctor. You know, the kind that chop up albinos for rituals. To cite a much later popular example, seven of the accused witches put to death at the Salem Witch Trials were middle-aged men.

The whole modern witches-as-medicine-women idea was created by amateur anthropologist and folklorist, Margaret Alice Murray, in 1917. Her idea's were capitalized on by Gerald Gardner, founder of Wicca in the 1940's. And that's how people now think witches were female pagan healers persecuted by a heavy-handed church, instead of creepy neck-beard nut-jobs selling curses.

Actually capitalism is the entire point for colonies as a means to regulate the balance of trade. India as an example, the British were able to harvest raw materials for their textile mills at bottom barrel prices then reimport the finished goods back to India at higher mark by the use of trade barriers against foreign competitors.

To be fair, cavalry did contribute a bit to fighting in ww2, but only just a bit.
>>119692111
You're still wrong. You said it "rendered horseback fighting useless", which is blatantly wrong since they were still useful from the middle-age to the 19th century.

>>119691789
Remind me again. Ledreik - the trader?

>>119692161
No, they did in Altair. However, it was a small kingdom within China or perhaps it was Japan that did. Either way, the greater whole of Cinali aka China in Altair took that kingdom down in some civil war or some shit and burned the technology away instead of stealing it for themselves.

It's one thing for chinks to burn books about ideologies and what not, but military technologies? Yeah right.

>>119692104
>Cavalry has had no combat purpose since WW1.
You have no idea what you're talking about.

German, French and Belgian cavalry played a major role in the opening actions of World War I, and cavalry was extremely viable (and used extensively) by the Russians, Austrians and Germans on the eastern front. During the Polish-bolshevik war cavalry also played a pivotal role.
>And by WW2 they served no purpose at all.
Soviet cavalry played a major role in the Russian theatre, and Polish cavalry with horsedrawn AT guns were quite successful in the early actions of the war.

Yes, it was an exaggeration but my point is that, after the pikes were perfected, the purpose of the cavalry was pushed back into scouting, flanking, and transport.

>>119692289
Since WW1, meaning after. They saw plenty of use during it initially, but warfare as a whole changed throughout the course of the war. By the end their purpose had almost entirely eroded.

What are the other nation analogy again?

Why do people say the hundred years war was England vs France?

It wasn't. It was House Anjou vs House Valois. It just happened that among their titles, House Anjou had the Kingdom of England.

Both sides had French and non-French allies. And both were French families with good claims on the throne.

The war was decided mostly on who had the strongest French allies (IIRC, Burgundy and Brittany) and had the Anjou won, what would actually happen is that King of the French would be their main title.

Again, you still have no idea what you're talking about. Cavalry. With sabers and rifles. The Soviets used them well into the war for breakthroughs and intercepting supply lines. Again, they sustained huge losses, but that could be said for the Soviet Union as a whole.

Their usage was still coming from nations that were relatively under equipped. They were used by the soviets because they couldn't logistically support motorized transports, not because they were an effective method of combat.

You are aware every single major nation, regardless of equipment, had organic cavalry at the outset of the war, and some of them (Germany and the USSR) still used them at the end of the war? Germany was hardly "under equipped" and they continued to use cavalry as late as 1945. The Soviets, who by 1944, WERE capable of making as many tanks as they damn well pleased, still actively used cavalry. They were still an effective method of combat.

>>119692811
The Reconquista had quite a bit of intrigue between the Christian states and even within the Muslim invaders (mostly conflict between Berbers and Arabs). There were even times of cooperation between Christian and Muslim leaders to ensure peace.

Spanish territories at that time was actually formed by several kindoms. Portugal was just a county that revolted, succeeded in becoming independent and ended up being successful in war against its neighbors, even against the Spanish.

The age of discoveries was a different time-period altogether (but still somehow linked by certain events). It would also make great fiction fodder.

>>119693083
Oh okay. I was mainly referring to manga that keeps showing very powerful or influential females and having them come from the mountains.

Actually, that old grandmother in A Bride's Story was also a mountain woman, and she was obviously the strongest character in the series by a country mile. No one could fuck with her, even with rifles.

>>119693245
Germany didn't have problems building tanks, but they had huge trouble with oil. You could very well call them under-equipped.

Yes they fucking did. They burned through their meagre supplies far, far faster than they could replenish them, they only had supplies in the first place due to incredibly creative accounting (including inventing a separate fucking currency for only the military) to hide the fact that they were bankrupt, and the reason they needed to conquer so much so fast was to capture the supplies that they needed from their enemies

Were the Soviets making trinkets with their industrial output? Industrial Output is important because that's what is necessary to equip those raw numbers. The Soviets were woefully underequipped from 1941-1942. By 1944-1945 they were just as well-equipped as their other allies.

Not him, and I haven't caught up to the latest episodes but yeah that's the gist of it. The choreography is nice, but that's about it and the MC is pretty amusing because he's basically if a gamer was streaming as they play Gundam Dynasty or something. You know, like if Spider Man except not remotely funny and more whiney.

At least you see tons of shit happening at once on screen though during fights. That's really what matters. No Kung-Fu Gundam doing a jump kick for 5 seconds only for everyone else to stand there in amazement until he smashes the enemy.

I was being sarcastic. My point is that you could argue every nation actually involved in the war was underequipped at some point or another (even in 1945 most Shermans was allotted iirc 1 HVAP shell a month). And at that point the argument that "only underequipped nations used horse cavalry in World War II" becomes pointless.

It would be easy to invade Russia if you set up points that you take each year and fortify them till the next winter ends before moving forward. Everyone just wants to rush at the capital and get stuck.

Or, you guys just aimed the catapult real well to launch the planes AT the u-boats. I mean it's Canada, don't you have like an Eskimo or Inuit detachment or something? They can save whoever pilots the plane anyways. Or summon killer whales.

>>119693923
That's at the start of WWII, by the end there were like 30. There were a few more during WWI as well, thanks to the good old naval crisis, it's just that they were pretty shitty and got stood down.

>>119693140
Could've worked out way better for us if the military leaders hadn't fucked up in every possible way at anticipating yet another invasion through the Ardennes.

>>119693987

The farther in you are, the more strongpoints you're going to have to build to protect your supply line. And it's fucking Russia, Russians will find a way to sneak and kill your convoys anyway until your whole entrenched army starves to death.

No, it's not.
Russia after 1944 had more than enough access to raw resources and had the industrial power to motorize themselves, given they produced more tanks than anybody in the whole war. They still used cavalry because it was still effective.

>>119694021
30 ships.

But no carrier.

Only ever owned two carriers, and they were all built in Britain. They were also transferred after the war ended and never saw much action.

It's not, the Russians were fighting a desperate retreat to the gates of Moscow. Stalin didn't properly anticipate the German Invasion.

And who is going to feed those cities? Russia will burn every farm and uproot every track from here to Vladivostok, and if you rely on supply convoys deep in Russia you're just asking to be cut off and starved to death. Fortifications can't beat hunger.

Witchcraft was a capital offence in pre-Christian Rome and Greece. Most pagan societies outside of the pre-Columbian Americas didn't tolerate witchcraft.

The following links to contemporary cases can give you insight into what actual, historical witchcraft was really like, and why even a lot of pagan societies banned it:

Well then, I guess they just aimed the catapult real well. We're talking about the thing that throws rocks right?

>>119694316
This is Canada. You throw Maple syrup. Frozen Maple Syrup.

Also, of note, Project Habakkuk was experimented on in Canada. So Canada could have the world's only floating iceburg carrier.

>'go read a book'

anon, realize that there are many books on that topic.
you should read more than one.

>>119694023
no one anticipated it because von mannstein pulled it out of blue after the french had intercepted their earlier war plans (which was just a repeat of wwi).

>>119693140
well blame bad leadership and the great depression for it

>>119694299
Where is the sources on the number of males vs female persecuted for witch craft in Southern/Western Europe, good anon?

I am legitimately curious. The only thing I could find was that man's quote that anyone interested in it did not look beyond the inquisition book.

>>119694411
So what you're trying to say is Canada planted that giant iceberg in front of the Titanic for a test run right?

>>119694427
>>119694023
It helps that most of the German High Command was just as surprised as the BEF and French when Rommel and Guderian broke through the ardennes as fast as they did. Everybody (French, British, German, Belgian) knew the war would be fought in Belgium (that's the job of the maginot, to allow a proportionally small force to defend most of the border such that the majority of the French Army could fight in Belgium), almost all of them were just surprised exactly where.

>>119694427
>because von mannstein pulled it out of blue
The fact that the enemy hasn't thought of it yet doesn't mean I shouldn't be prepared for it.
A proper armor protects the entire body, not just the parts that statistics show are usually targeted by the enemy.

(although I heard a funny story about some retarded engineers trying the opposite during WW1)

>>119694234
I never said it ended the War, only that it stopped further westward expansion past the Mediterranean. It also proved that the Ottomons weren't invincible.

>>119693757
>Japanese tanks were shiiiiiiittttt
were there really such a need for tanks in the pacific theater? I mean, I understand not all the specks of islands they fought on were densely jungled hellholes, and they got airbases to defend/attack/etc, but still. I thought

>>119694657
objectives had to be captured by men on foot. men on foot don't deal with tanks very well. yes there is a need for tanks.

>>119689636
>history from 4chan
heh

>>119693654
This was during the beginning of the war. It was why they went through the gold reserves of their occupied countries (Austria/Poland/Belgium/Netherlands/Luxembourg/Yugoslavia/Greece/Czechoslavka/Bulgaria/Hungary/Romania/Denmark) like candy. The rearmament program was so cash strapped like >>119693529 said that they were issuing phoney money by that point even before the war (that could only be used for taxes and other government related fees)

So guys speaking of history, when's the next chapter of Historie coming out?

>>119694729
didn't you hear?

france obviously won but england lasted a long time considering france had higher population and more resources

england ran out and got btfo

>>119694711
Did people invest in these because they had to or because they expect to make a profit in the end?

>>119694657
they relied mostly on the same doctrine as the french had: infantry support.

>>119693612
The third reich was economically a series of
>fuck, we're broke!
>what do we do?
>lets conquer territory x!
>yay resources! lets party!
>fuck, we're broke again!

At first they could get away with doing things with peaceful annexations like Austria, Sudetenland, Czechoslovakia, and then with forceful annexations like Poland, BeNeLux, France, and the rest.

The currency thing was in part due to the Germans desperately avoiding a repeat of the Wiemar mark hyperinflation. This was done in part by bullshitting and in part by obtaining the gold reserves of the annexed/conquered territories.

>>119694540
Did it launch bombers at the Titanic? If not they did a poor job at it.

>>119694560
The Maginot was meant to include the Ardennes and the Belgian border. But the engineers said Ardennes was low priority since interwar tanks would have had trouble going through dense forest, so that area was not nearly ready. (ironically, the French horse cavalry was there)

You may as well blame Tom Phillips for losing the Prince of Wales because all previous intelligence and knowledge said the Japanese couldn't possibly project air power more than 200 miles.

>>119694817
Ahhh thanks anon!

Lots of literal semen demons this season. I like it.

Speaking of England, what happened to the Kingdom of Wales?

We never heard anything about them outside of being a part of Great Britain.

>>119692568
i do, aslo muv luv was shit so the only good thing that came out of it was the war conference.

>>119694776
Hitler was a very convincing figure. People believed in the government.

>>119694899
nobody gives a shit about the welsh

>>119694940
I know they fuck sheep and all, but they make great archers I thought?

>>119694560
Wouldn't have helped them much anyway. The French high command was still running on WWI time tables. It would take them 48 hours just to figure out what was happening, and 1 week for a proper counter-offensive. That put them on a huge back seat against the Wehrmacht, who could plan, organize, and execute a new attack in under 24 hr. It's how the Nazis did so well in the early war, when the still had a bunch of panzer Is (AKA a tractor with machine guns bolted on)

>>119694937
I am looking forward to the next man who tries this.

>>119694937
The highest Hitler's popularity was, during polls that were controlled by the government and quite literally had armed Nazis in the booths watching you vote, was around 43%, and he lost almost every non-rigged election, I wouldn't quite say people believed in him.

>>119694424
Maybe so, but this one addresses the question from both an economic and historical point of view, explaining the basis, history and evolution of the theory and providing empirical evidence to refute it. Plus, it is easily understandable so that one might be enough.

>>119695019
I thought he had man twisting your arm outside the booth?

>>119695019
He was basically a religion.
The Germans thought he'd win the war until 1945.

Did /gsg/ migrate to /a/?

>>119694754
No. Do tell.

>>119695080
if you read the personal diaries of any german around before 1945, basically no one thought winning was possible. germany still being around at the end of it all was what anyone could hope for

>>119682301
Why does some of the warriors look like samuraï?

>>119695013
whoever that guy is, would be really somethings. It's impossible now, what with atheism, lack of belief in any form of authority among the youth etc.

>>119694823
What about bacon does that count?

>>119694940
Askeladd died for Wales. And he ruined Vinland Saga by doing so.

>>119695133
I read through "Soldiers", and they were talking about him quite clearly as a messiah.
Later, when they realized the war wasn't going very well, they put the blame on the people around him who probably lied to Hitler. But they still believed. The V2 was a major point for them, as were the new planes. It was only a few months before the actual end that the last hope actually died.
