ITT: History's biggest mistakes
I'll start: not splitting Germany up after WW1
>>52444017
That's a pretty big mistake.
>>52444017
Britain joining ww1
allowing poland to exist.
Poland is just a cluster of butthurt and poverty.
>>52444017
Brits backstabbing their saxon brother for the sake of a non-country
>>52444082
they saved europe
you just keep trying to destroy it
>>52444017
Attacking Germany in WWII.
not letting Germany win WWI
if anyone wants to argue just remember:
WWI -> WWII -> Refugee Crisis
Not killing all the Irish
German unification

Heres a classic.
Blunder of the millenium
>>52444236
Sometimes I want to commit a large-scale false-flag act of violence to destroy the country internally.

They may have saved europes plumbing problems but they never saved Europe
>>52444332
muh hussars
>>52444281
Don't worry, Merkels immigration policy will destroy Germany soon enough.
Whatever shitty aboriginal society would be far better compared to the fucking scum that is known as the Australian. Seriously, the Brits should of just relocated their prisoners to the bottom of the sea instead of putting them on their own island. FUCK OFF AUSTRALIA.
>>52444563
We used to send them to the 13 colonies, but after 1776 we couldn't anymore.
The independence of the US directly resulted in the creation of Australia.
>>52444271
The east empire was at least 1st world. The hugest mistake was the change from republic to empire which led to this mess.
This guy dying rather than founding an empire to last 1000 years.
What could have been...

>republic to empire
>a bad thing
Pleb pls
>>52444017
Germany not annexing Austria after unification and dismembering their empire and avoiding a bullshit war over the trash that is serbia and bosnia in the first place
>>52444017
Germany guaranteeing Austria-Hungary before WWI
The Treaty of Trianon
Existence of the US

>>52445302
Like that wouldn't have also lead to a war.
>>52444198
Unironically this, your population is too law you fucked fuck the balance of power.
>>52445339
>archipelago niggers are THIS mad the US exists
>>52445585
They're not alone.
Not us though, we love the USA. Notice us.
>>52444082
t.butthurt little Hans
France selling the Louisiana territories to the US.
Spain selling Florida to the US.
Russia selling Alaska to the US.
USA not annexing Cuba as a state after the Spanish-American war.
>>52444281
try this, it worked last time
I can trump all of you
Germany giving Lenin millions of marks worth of gold and putting him on a train to Moscow.
Thanks a fucking lot for ruining the western world you kraut bastards.
Japan attacking Pearl Harbor.
Hollywood making the movie Pearl Harbor.
Washington not declaring an himself King after winning independence for America.
An American Empire to rival the British would have assured Anglo dominance of all the world as Cecil Rhodes dreamed.
They could have got busy in america, while we did out stuff in Africa and Asia. Brining the light of democracy and western values to all corners of Earth.

Germans are literally responsible for most of the worst things in European history
>the fall of the Roman Empire
>the Reformation
>WW1

>>52445915
>America declaring independence in the first place
Basically a spastic euphoric fit by second and third sons of the aristocracy
>>52445959
>the holocaust
>>52445915
We could've been like Britannia from Code Geass.
Oh, the potential.
>>52446045

good work oliver, you fixed everything

>the other half get's itself rekt by going after the ottoman host alone
The Poles didn't hold Klosterneuburg or Wiener Neustadt, we did, without them poland could have sent a million men and couldn't have crossed the Kahlberg.
and that whole war wasn't even about protecting christendom, it was a normal turf war, the catholic French were allied with the Turks during that war.
>>52446033
>euphoric
In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony king's blessing, but because, I am enlightened by my own Providence.

>>52444271
Are you fucking kidding? That move ensured that the Empire wouldn't collapse as a whole when the Barbarians invaded, and ensured that the east would survive for another 1000 years.
>>52446244
Its WHY the barbs invaded.
>>52446116
Actually Kara Mustafa was a very convenient enemy. He had both time and men to make earthworks from Danube to Dornbach, and had he made them, there'd be no fucking way to bring help to Starhemberg in time. Even if Lithuanians came in time.
>>52445959
>WW1
Not Germany's fault alone
>WW2
You can thank the Allies and their inability to think more than a decade into the future for that.
>Holocaust
The only tragedy is that they didn't kill em all
Letting norway vote for independence.
>>52445959
> the fall of the Roman Empire
> defeating territorial enemies
> bad
pick one
>>52446313
The "euro".
>>52446346
We wanted them to go though. Their liberal ideas and values were seen as a threat to conservative Sweden. Especially after they abolished the nobility
Nowadays it's the other way around
Insert white nationalist/white supremacist whining here.
>>52444017
No one ITT has even come close to this. Germany is the biggest misstake in the history of man-kind
>>52446271
Barbarians were invading regardless. All it showed was the Western rulers couldn't keep it together.
>>52446271
Nope. They invaded because they were being pushed south by the Invading Huns. The Empires weakness was not primarily due to the split, but due to the fact they stopped using Slaves and treated everyone as equals, thus undermining the base of their economy.
