Impossibru. Germany couldn't win against US, USSR and GB together, and any notion of possibility of taking out GB early on and preventing US from joining in are meme-tier since Germany had neither the ships nor the planes for it. Even fighting USSR one-on-one would've had bad odds, and US is out of reach of any meaningful counterattack.

Hitler could have prevented Dunkirk which would have resulted in Churchill never becoming prime minister. Instead he wanted to signalize the UK that he was willing to end the war with Britain. Pretty much every British politian wanted to negotiate with Hitler. If he would continue listening to his generals at this point, he would invade the UdSSR and the war would be over in his favor.
>>
>>2133580
>Hitler could have prevented Dunkirk
No. There are no historical sources backing up this myth.

The real reason the Germans stopped was to refuel and resupply, to prevent another battle of the marne. Guderian himself said this.

Spain still had a bigger empire than Britain in the late 18th century
Britain was really just a 2nd rate european nation
The meme of it being a superpower during the US Revolution was created by Americans who purpotedly (for the most intelligent of them) confuse 1776 Britain with the late 19th century one (the one that ruled 1/3rd of the world) to make their victory seem more impressive

You're laughing but Austria was easily the 2nd most powerful country in Europe (after France) during the late 18th century
They didnt have any projection so they're irrelevant in the scope of colonial wars, but in Europe they were tough shit
Austria itself was quite huge, but in addition to that they also owned current Germany, Italy, Belgium and Prussia was their vassal under the HRE
Pic related, everything in yellow was basically Austria's possession
>>
>>2133754
The spanish Empire was strong though. They had an incredibly powerful trade network and access to huge amounts of resources, an insanely large population with their colonies and an impressive army and navy.

The war of independence wasn't very impressive.

Except for taxation and industry. Militarily useless, but economically powerful.

>Your statement demanded such a response.
The Spanish Navy was strong as fuck. Maybe not as powerful as the British or French, but still a powerful fleet. Due to Spain's more or less good relationship with France, they used their navy more than their army.

This is hard to get trough most people's heads because they think medievals=100% retarded

>the civil war was about states rights
hahaha ebin

Here's how it is. The South's economy was totally reliant on the money brought in by thebig cash crop plantations, it'd trickle down as the plantation owners bought goods produced by people lower in the economy, basic economics you may have heard of it.

So you might imagine that, if your entire economy was reliant on a certain institution to keep functional, you would view efforts to abolish that institution to be literally a threat to your way of life. Particularly if the people trying to abolish this institution were more economically and, at least starting to be, politically powerful than you. You might even feel that your basic rights to live life and enjoy liberty outlined in the Constitution were potentially in jeopardy.

So, if the question is "Was the Civili War about slavery or states' rights?", it could be fairly said that it was about both. And if you were to just say that it was about slavery, it would only be valid to say "it was about protecting the institution of slavery which would allow their economy to not collapse", not "they just hated niggers so goddam much they'd rather fight a bloody war than let em be free", which is often what people imply when they say "it was about slavery".

Very few people say this to my knowledge.

>germany started ww1
Couldn't agree more. I'm not praising to diplomacy of Germany in the days leading to the start of the War, but they were supporting their ally after a member of said ally's royal family had been gunned down in the street. But I guess we need to keep spouting the "le germans be ebil :DD;D".

Seriously though, many parties deserve blame. France did a similar thing to Germany, except they were just supporting their ally in maintaing it's geopolitical interests, no one France pledged to protect had been attacked. Or Russia, for getting up in Austria's business when one could reasonably assume they had German backing. Or fuck, the Austrians just HAD to test the Russians, didn't they?

...Yes, but as I said you can't just say "it was about slavery", because people will hear that and think "they couldn't stand the idea of not being able to whip their slaves every day".

Well It doesn't really matter how much money he makes or how many cute Finnish girls he dances with because he's often just fucking wrong. Not only that, but extremely anglocentric in his interpretations even when he does have the facts right.

It's because of the englightement philosophers spreading retarded myths about the middle ages to justify their opposition to the monarchy and the church.

>everyone thought the world was flat
>primae noctis was real and if you were a peasant you got cucked
>inquisition killed ten gajillion people because they said Earth is round
>everyone in the middle ages smelled like shit because nobody washed
>all nobles were degenerates and indulged in sodomy, satanic orgies and child rape

100% of these myths can be traced back to the enlightement and the rennaisance

As for Muslims, well wahhabism was the reform, unfortunately.

The difference is that unlike Germany, France didnt, you know, declare war on everyone turning a local conflict into a world war

They even withdrew their army 10kms away from the border in order to appease tensions, but the Germans used that to raid a French village

If you had actually read about the period from Ferdinand's death to the outbreak of war you'd know that it was not some knee-jerk emotional reaction by Germany going "muh ally's honor".

>Eastern Prussian territories belong to Germany


Triggers me to no end. Fuckers are clueless about the fact that germans ethnically cleansed the entire provinces of poles in the 19th century. More so when those territories were the original lands of the polish Kingdom in the 10th century
>>
>the civil war was about states rights
>the civil war was about slavery
For the South, secession was about Slavery
For the North, it was about preserving the Union and Federal supremacy

I don't know why everyone has to throw the argument one way.
>>
>>2134446
Firstly, Kansas didn't secede, they had a constant shitflinging with Missouri.
Secondly, Texas mentioned grievances over the federal government not doing as promised about native American raiding as well as slavery. So there's that.

>They did
That depends, when did it start for you? If it started when Franz got shot no that is not the Germans fault, if it is the invasion of Belgium and bringing the United Kingdom into the war then yes it is their fault. Or if it is their failing at diplomacy leading to the creation of the Russian alliance with France then yes it's their fault.
