good thing I didn't imply that at all :)

You are not born and this question is not asked.

It is better that way.

>Britain will allow a strong and dominant Germany on the continent without a word

No. Britain has always had the stance of backing whichever state wants to take over Europe the least.

>much less likely to enter the war

Germany didn't need a navy to invade Belgium anon.

ww1 never happens since german empire doesnt try to get into colonisation therefore britshits cannot weasle their way into an all out war (not on their soil ofcourse)

>>1835957
BRITAIN is much less likely to enter the war is what he means

>>1835948
More like

>Brits get butthurt at Germany
>France hasnt recovered from 1871 yet
>Germany thus don't considere them as a treath and do not attack them
>Brits try to open a front against Germany in the low country
>And get kicked out soon after like everytime they tried to wage a war in continental Europe without a strong ally to carry them

>>1835953
Yes, and?
Why would they prefer france, which has a colonial empire of it's own and a navy to threaten the british to a germany which has neither of those things?

>>1835996

Germany is a much bigger threat to continental Europe which was a MUCH bigger concern to Britain. Plus, after Napoleon, France was never as aggressive as the new Germany was. So I don't know why the British would EVER support Germany.

>our natrual border is the left bank of the rhine
Nah man france was pretty agressive back in the day.
I would think that the anglos would prefer to do their own thing undisturbed instead own bailing out a rival for no reason at all.

>go back in time to 1848
>convince the congress to "GAS THE PRUSSIANS! REPUBLIC NAO!!!"
What changes?

>>1835924
They probably get fucked since no navy to defend them.

Also, friendly reminder that in the 18th century Britain and Prussia were allies. Most of the tensions that led to them taking opposite sides had to do with colonies and/or the navy.

You just created a universe in which Germany never built a navy from 1871 on. Congratz

Nothing changes on our universe
