@101andrewj japan was like the american indians forced into modern society when america came to japan it was still in the edo era(if i remember correctly) so i doubt they woulda gone from swords and bows to cannons and guns in just a few days germany lost cause they had all the world against them (not including small neutral nations or china) see america and russia then germany,hungary? and italy then back again to A,R theres no way they woulda won..unless they out tech by a century or so

@DizzyBlizzy japan had alot of muscle, but thats it, in terms of inginuity they sucked ass, almost all of their mechanized weapons were copys or half ass interpretations of western inventions.. look up japan in the late 1800s, they were a joke, and hired many experts from nations like france, britian, germany and america to modernize their military and war fighting industrys.. germany was ahead of everybody technologically, they only lost because hitler was a idiot

@JBoY2214 what it really comes down to, and what almost no americans will admit, is the USA at the time of the great wars, seriously feared germany... today, america will engage in warfare on the slightest whim, and its because they are so strong now, but in 1916, or 1941, they were not the toughest in the world, germany was.. the only excuse i ever hear is america didnt want to get involved in europes problems, but today they get in everybodys business, why not when it was really needed? fear

@JBoY2214 actually no, america did the same thing in ww1 as they did in ww2, joined late, and canada, being a loyal crown colony, joined right away, over 100 000 canadians were running up vimy ridge while america sat back and did nothing... in both the world wars canada was engaged for years longer with germany.. and look at modern america, they mingle in everybodys business right away, but when a first world nation like germany acts up, they are scared to move so quick

@101andrewj I get your argument but dont bother fighting with trolls, because in the end ur probably fighting with some ignorant 12 year old. But dont talk shit against our country and military, one of the main reasons we didnt get involved in WW2 immediately was because we fought in WW1(which I dont believe Canada got too involed in at all) so the horror of war was still fresh in our heads. We didnt want to go out of our way to go to war. At the time we figured Europes problem was Europes prob

@RetSquid I looked it up, and you are correct. But both sides did write declarations of war (Germany's was first by a vote of 1-0). I didn't realize we put US retaliation on paper like with the Japanese.

@DizzyBlizzy

We declared war onn Germany on December 11, 1941, with a vote of 88-0 in the Senate and 393-0 in the House.
