this is so awesome, from this point of view: armies fought for 4 years, millions died and France wasnt captured. In 3 weeks, 20 years later, with a few thousand dead, the germans paraded in Paris. You gotta love strategy.

@GAKcarinthia Why exactly are you raging about the Canadians? They are actually pretty good people, a lot better than Americans that's for sure.

@Nered88 Yeah one thing people should realize is that Germany probably would've beaten France in WWI if it wasn't for the fact that they had to deal with Russia before the Communist Revolution and then the United States afterwards. I mean it was pretty obvious Germany was about to win the war after Russia dropped out until the US joined in.

Fun fact: Germany defeated France 3 times in a row :D France-Prussia war, ww1, ww2. Some people never learn from history

@jack60091 Good riddance.

[Talbot6832]

@lopido Lol... yet France is the only reason your country exists, great logic right there.

[Talbot6832]

@VikefanTony That is bollocks and you know it. Germany as a nation was around for less than 80 years yet instigated 3 horrendous wars.

[jack60091]

Most of these soldiers were killed at Stalingrad. So much for glory.

I believe today the France will also be beaten by German within 3 weeks.

@GAKcarinthia Stop talking crazy. As soon as america runs out of trees we are gonna annex Canada. Mark my words. Two days and it's over for them, and there so-called "independence"
