The way we specify WWI battles is a bit confusing and this is something I noticed while digging through the newspaper archives. For example I could find nothing on the Battle of the Marne yet fights on the eastern front was called the biggest battle in human history. Today it's a couple battles. Somme remains one battle that was a couple months long.

>>2718868
because at first no one resisted them (and invasion happened because it was encouraged by traitor who hated the king in first place) since Poland was politically in very fragile state (cossack uprising, attempts to centralize the country) and many nobles chosen to collaborate with Swedish invaders in order to dethronize the Vasa king that ruled over Poland
The situation was such am unfortunate shitstorm that the king had to proclaim a decree making every Swede and Protestant enemy of the state and made saint Madonna eternal queen of Poland in honour of a siege that slowly began to turn the tide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Jasna_G%C3%B3ra

No way. WWII cost Poland half of its original territory, turned many cities to rubble (or less than rubble) and killed like 20% of its population (I don't remember the exact number but more than other countries). And of course Poland didn't regain its independence for like 50 years.

So the Pope wants there to be free North Italian cities. Venice wants to control North Italy and starts taking cities.
The Pope wants to stop this and assembles some Christians to do so. As Venice is pushed back, France also wants to take North Italy, doesn't release the cities they take from Venice.
The Pope is furious and needs someone who is good at taking North Italian cities and Venice says they're good at that and the Pope says okay.
As the French get blasted a bit, their King dies and the new King doesn't want to war in North Italy anymore. So, looking at options, he asks Venice if they'd be willing to split the land and Venice agrees.
Meanwhile the Pope is still angery.

Yi-Sun Sin's tactical and strategic genius in his choice for the battle's location aside, the Korean warships were much better than the Japanese.

They had a lot more cannon, and variety of cannon, too. Whereas the Japanese Atakebune and Sekibune might have a few cannon, the Korean Panokseon had a whole assortment of cannon from large guns that fired huge arrows and shot, to smaller close in guns and even the equivalent of swivel guns.

Meanwhile, for the Japanese, their idea of naval warfare was still "board the ship and kill them honoroborury". Cannons were a distraction. They knew that the Koreans had way better ships than them, which is why essentially needed to Zergrush the Koreans with Sekibune. But sekibune are far less armored and have less teeth than the Iron armored Atakebune, so they were easily shot to pieces. The majority of the Jap fleet, and therefore losses, were Sekibune. And the armor on the Atakebune didn't really help it much against the Panokseon's larger armament, and it was much less sturdily constructed than it's Korean opponent.

Since he had chokepointed them with the strait, they were unable to flank or encircle Yi's fleet, so his ships could just play whackamole with the Japanese ships that popped up. The few Jap ships that did manage to get into boarding range were repulsed by small arms fire before boarding. Absolutely pathetic.

So basically Yi baited the Japs into a trap where he could cut down the Japanese fleet at a reasonable pace without being overwhelmed and saved Korea. The Japanese fell for it because they were cocky after recently ALMOST DESTROYING the Korean fleet at Chilcheolyang. But they only won that via trickery (that Yi correctly predicted) and the fact that political infighting bullshit (They were mad that Yi didn't want to send the navy into an obvious trap) had lead to Admiral Yi Sun-sin being demoted and replaced with a fucking retard (who walked right into said trap and got near everyone killed).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Clean_Break:_A_New_Strategy_for_Securing_the_Realm

>A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm (commonly known as the "Clean Break" report) is a policy document that was prepared in 1996 by a study group led by Richard Perle for Benjamin Netanyahu, the then Prime Minister of Israel.[1] The report explained a new approach to solving Israel's security problems in the Middle East with an emphasis on "Western values." It has since been criticized for advocating an aggressive new policy including the removal of Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq and the containment of Syria by engaging in proxy warfare and highlighting its possession of "weapons of mass destruction".

As they took Huss teachings out of context and his was stupid enough to accept this. And lastly, Sigismund as he was "just the king" couldn't do anything about him being executed.

Nice sources you got there.

If there was a numerical advantage, it wasn't by much. The Byzantines never fielded more than 20,000-50,000 during the war with the Sassanids in a single battle, and Muslim historians themselves estimate their forces at 24,000-40,000 soldiers.

The fighting between Slavs didnt really start until western powers started meddling in the beginning of the 20th century.

For example, Bosnians and Croats were fighting with Serbs in Kosovo in 1389. Serbia,Bulgaria and Montenegro teamed up to kick turks out of Europe for good in 1912.

And they weren't "cumdumpsters" for turks any longer than, lets say England was for Romans or Normans, and certainly not as long as the Moors were in Spain.

As for the remove meme, most of heavy lifting was done by Russia on that front, but the balkans pact did remove Turks from Europe forever, and the only time any Muslim emperors/leaders died in battle was against southern slavs in the Balkans, so take that for what its worth.

>>2710737
>they literally decimated themselves

>>2721606
Original requests by NATO were for slobo to leave all the heavy weapons and armoured vehicles in Kosovo, while also accepting a referendum on Kosovo independence 2 years later. Kumanovo agreement and passing of UN 1244 was pretty good in comparison.

Also, while yugoslav airforce was BTFO, the ground troops in Kosovo suffered relatively little damage, which is also why NATO resorted to bombing civilian infrastructure, like TV stations, power plants, bridges, trains itd...

>>2710976
Losing a battle with 50% casualties when you have a 5-to-1 numerical advantage really isn't that bad compared to some of the battles here.

>>2711121
>The truth of this war ever existing is disputed. It is said to have been extended by the lack of a peace treaty for 335 years without a single shot being fired, which would make it one of the world's longest wars and a bloodless war. Despite the uncertain validity of the declaration of war, and thus uncertainty about whether or not a state of war ever actually existed in the first place, peace was finally declared in 1986, bringing an end to any hypothetical war that may have been legally considered to exist.

IIRC Nossa Senhora da graça was basically a kamikaze attack AGAINST the Japanese. They burned their own carrack so that the 3000 Japanese would not capture and torture them. It was a missionary ship, not a military one. It probably had cannons, but it had priests as opposed to soldiers.

It earned the Portuguese some respect by some factions of Japan at the time.
