Why is World war 2 so much more popular in the Media despite

Because WW2 is way more relevant to US, which dominates the media.

this. but also because WW1 is depressing as fuck and doesn't have a clear cut narrative(good vs evil and all that shit). A ton of people die for basicaly nothing. the end.

WW2 is even more depressing though.

>Germany kills millions of Slavs and Jews
>The soviet Union loses 15 million men
>Italy is humiliated and sent into poverty
>France is humiliated and its people put under Nazi government
>Britain loses its Empire and its people are rationing into the fifties
>Japan kills millions of Chinese, rape even more, then have an Atomic bomb dropped on them.

Only America had a good time.

Amer*cunts

WW1 lead directly to WW2, so they can scratch the surfice of WW1 by talking about WW2. WW2 is more profitable to make films and shows about. WW1 is way more complicated than WW2. WW2 can be clearcut blamed on the Nazis - WW1 you have to explain a clusterfuck of treaties and rising poltical and social tension.
WW1 was a gaint clusterfuck. WW2 can be seen as clear cut Us vs Them - Good vs Evil.

But at least you can say that you're the victim. WW1 doesn't have victims, even smaller nations like Serbia, Bulgaria and Romania jumped into war with the same bloodlust as others.

>>1894635
WW2 Can't really be characterized like that though. Stalin was a classical evil villain.

>>1894655
>WW1 doesn't have victims
>4 Empires destroyed, Retard Tier Nationalism takes over.

>>1894661
It was their own fault.

> despite World War 1 being far more crazy and interesting?
That is your opinion

>>1894661
He means that no one tried to avoid the war. Everyone was pretty enthusiastic about it.

>>1894595
Pretty much this
WW2 is the only war in which the US were relevant, and the US are the current cultural hegemon

I swear cancerous faggots like you should try to educate themselves intead of repeating memes

Only two countries really wanted war in WW1
Austria and Germany

>>1894667
It's basically fact though.

WW1:
>Guerilla desert warfare in the middle east, battles, intrigue and assassination in biblical cities like jerusalem, legendary figures like T.E. Lawrence
>Air Battles in Bi-Planes
>6 different Empires that collectively own pretty much all of Africa, Europe and Asia battling
>The Fall of 4 Historic empires in just 5 years
>Complex Civil wars in Germany and russia
>Guerilla warfare in Austria Hungary
>Fighting in the Alps in Italy

Only the western front was really dark, but even so ww2's eastern front is way more dark and depressing.

muh jews

You can't really say this when Russia threatened war with Germany and Austria over Serbia. They had this inferiority complex since the Russo-Japanese war.

>Only two countries really wanted war in WW1

Shit wasnt even 50 years old

>when Russia threatened war with Germany and Austria over Serbia

Russia only threatened Austria, Germany involved itself in all this shit out of autism

>>1894710
Prussia was though, and Prussia was still a part of the Empire. Germany was basically 'Prussia and friends'. Like England and the UK, really.

>My headcanon is that France wannted war therefore it's true

Kys
France is one of the countries that did the most to avoid the war
They withdrew their army 10kms from the border, they didn't react when German cavalry raided their villages, they didnt react when Germany attacked Russia
Germany tried hard to make France attack them, but the French never did so Germany tried of waiting just declared war themselves
