@LordAkronos they had to pay because even if every german wanted to fight til the bitter end they couldnt have done it. The offensives of 1918 were it. They had no more money they were arming young boys. Germany had no money or recourses left to fight the war with.

LOl were all going callling on the kaiser! that would be cool actually he would probably be fun to hang out with,.

Germany is one of my favorite countries. To have the capability to challenge the world powers alone. It was basically 1 vs 5 in WWI and in WWII it was basically 1 vs 7. If only they had stronger allies.... Imagin back in 1914 and 1939 if Germany had Great Britan as an ally... Things might have been different...

@GrimCorrespondent that may be but if you look at the casualty/troops ratio they also sent alot more troops but remember they were fighting on two fronts sorry if i came off a little mean or rude and i guess i worded it wrong yes they did lose but the only reason they had pay for anything is becuase the german gov't fell apart

[GrimCorrespondent]

@LordAkronos I know my history but Germany still lost

cause there is no substitute for victory and if Germany didn't lose then why did Germany lose more in the end then other country in the war

Look up the Treaty of Versailles

Were Germany had to pay the victors

so all in all they lost cause the victor doesn't pay for winning so they lost WW1

[LordAkronos]

@GrimCorrespondent you know what im not even german and that pisses me off they didnt lose WW1 it was a Armistist they never surrenderd learn your history before you make stupid comments sorry for the spelling

[GrimCorrespondent]

If Germany was so great why is ever world war a fail for them or if losing is winning to you germans.
