@Rico8458 If you're referring to Hitler, you are BADLY mistaken. Hitler's idiotic "no retreat" orders were born in WWI. He had no grasp of strategy or tactics. He was a little corporal with an ungly mustache. And it is Hitler's stupidity that more then anything else insured Germany lost WW2, so w...

@evildeathmonkey1 Legal segregation ended in 1961 before Apartheid ended in South Africa, and at present our President is an African American.

@irishpker27 Maybe, but the German army by 1918 was no where near the peak of its power. It was exhausted, war weary, and running low on ammunition. The Germans were tearing up their streets to turn their sewer pipes into bullets and other war materials. The spring offensive of 1918 on Germany's ...

@MvonRichthofen1918 Power politics may have been one thing, but the German atrocities committed in Belgium and other places is another. Saying they're afraid of Belgian partisans, you would essentially justify a Genocide of Belgium's entire population under the pretext that the Beligan people MIG...

@RPenta For the neocons, I think you mean 1938 the year of the Munich Agreement. In 1939, when Poland was invaded, France and Britain declared war.

@drummerjacob Serbia was quite willing to allow for an investigation. What started the war was the fact that in the ultimatum the Austrians sent to Serbia essentially told the Serbs to ask to become a province of the Austrian Empire and cease to exist as an independent country. Naturally, the Ser...

@arhoptt Just remember they WIN on the Marne in September.

@GnosticHumanist And where is your proof? The Guns of August is well written on the time leading up to the Marne in September 1914. And the book credit's Joffre for maintaining his cool and moving Foch's 9th Army to Paris. And the German failing was turning far too soon, and that's what created t...

@GnosticHumanist You do realize that the French fought gallently in WWI? At the First Battle of the Marne in 1914? In holding Verdun in 1916? In actually gaining more ground then the British did on the Somme in 1916? In managing slow and contain the German advance in 1917-18? I'd think not, given...

The Alemanni were actually a fairly tough people in history. Not as tough as the Huns or Franks were, or as skilled as the Eastern Romans, but they were fairly tough. In terms of history, it was supposedly during a battle between the Franks and the Alemanni that Clovis I of the Franks promised "G...

Tigers are strong enough to kill Asiatic Rhinos, BUT more often then not it is the calfs that are killed and it usually ends up from a pair of tigers cooperating together (which is extremely rare). One distracts the mother while the other kills the calf and drags it to a spot where the mother can...

Aetius vs Theodoric the Great (Ostrogoth), Stilcho (Burgundian/Roman) vs Alaric (Visigoths), Clovis (Franks) vs Narses (Byzantine/E. Roman E. Belisarius' successsor in the Ostrogoth campaign)

The first Jewish revolt began during the reign of Nero and continued until after Vespasian became Emperor with the Roman Civil War following Nero's death being a "pause" in the revolt. The general that actually took Jerusalem and Masada was Vespasian's son, Titus.

@zollen123 Gladiator wasn't entirely accurate, but there were several elements that it played to that were highly accurate. Marcus Aurelius spent the last years of his reign campaigning against the Germans in the north. He was succeeded by his son, Commodus, and Commodus quickly became a tyrant o...

@yesiampsycho A misunderstanding on my part then... I thought that by saying "we've already domesticated felines" you were suggesting that tigers could be domesticated... As for why people do things like this... Animal Planet ran a series called Fatal Attractions which covers the reasons why peop...

@ShunkawakanOkawingha In nature, Baloo would be a Sloth Bear. However, the bear used in the movie is an American Black Bear.

@lewik006 Remember that the Grizzly is simply another name for the Brown Bear. One Brown Bear subspecies, the Eurasian, lives in the same area as the Siberian TIger. Siberian tigers have been known to attack and kill Brown Bears just as many times as Brown Bears have attacked and killed Tigers......
