World War I: Web Of Alliances 2/4

@SuperMachinegunner You dont think a nation can lose a war without being fully conquered, seriously? Germany was overwhelmed by the allies and had to agree to peace. The reason they signed armistice was just to halt things. The final peace treaty was the real thing. German was looking to expand its empire dont make them out to be good guys. Germany got fucked in the peace treaty because they lost, obviously.

An interesting quote from Otto von Bismarck which essentially predicts the first world war.

"One day the great European War will come out of some damned foolish thing in the Balkans"

[MajBlood]

@histnerd777 Yeh is a great quote, Bismarck was a diplomatic genius. On my Facebook page I have 3 or 4 corny quotes about friendship, loyalty, tolerance, justice etc. and then my final quote is that Bismarck one, lol.

@Glorfindelable so are u

[patsyd80]

king george and the kaiser should have had a punch up to decide the war. That would have saved tens of milions of lives. and allso made good t.v.

[richyloike]

@patsyd80 yeah if they had t.v back then.

[eatmecrew]

03:30 there were flying experiments of other kinds not so successful

hahaha LOL

[SuperMachinegunner]

didnt know that germany was the most powerfull military nation back then, would explain y they held 2 fronts for so long.

and before anyone says that germany was defeated in ww1, i say this, nobody won ww1, it was a armasist agreement (i think thats what its calld) nobody won or lost, for some reason they just blamed germany for everything even tough the start of the war wasnt theyre fault.

[Darkiver]

@SuperMachinegunner

I think germany was strongest on land, though the Brits were the overall strongest due to colonial possessions and their Navy.

[SuperMachinegunner]

@Darkiver the british were most powerfull in the sea,but ground forces wise i wouldnt say they were to powerfull,theyre colonial power was more a of a let downm they would have to hold all of it and they would have theyre forces spread all over the place

[Oldcartoons571]

@SuperMachinegunner Thats incorrect. If Germany won the war they wouldnt have been fucked over at the end of it. The reason the allies were able to fuck Germany over was because Germany was finished. They signed an armistice which is simply an agreement to stop fighting. That was however only so they would be able to work out a real peace deal. Again you dont get fucked over after the war if you win it. I dont know why you thought Germany didnt lose but thats totally incorrect, sorry.

[SuperMachinegunner]

@Oldcartoons571 yeah an armasitice is to stop fighting, how the hell does germany get to be the looser when there wasnt even one enemy soldier within the german borders, that would make just as mutch sense as the third reich surrendering in stalingrad, ww1 was just plain out bulshit especially that socalld "peacetreaty" in the end where germany got blamed for everything even though they were only answering an allied call for help cause everybody decided to gangup on austriahungary
