Seriously?OF COURSE the British Empire did lots of bad things, too, but nobody ever pretended otherwise. It's just that THIS documentary is about the Kaiserreich. Do you expect them to say every 5 minutes "By the way, the British Empire did horrible things too"? Just accept that all Europe has a horrible history of colonialism. Be aware of your country's history and spend time preventing these things in the future instead of complaining about other people's consciousness raising on the internet!

Um, you realize just because someone else was just as bad doesn't mean this is somehow negated? Seriously?

Do Germans spread knowledge about Herero and Nama genocide? --- Yes they did apologize - TWICE. What about you British? Nothing!!!

British don't deny Boer camps. I've heard about them in many British documentaries (even on youtube you have BBC documentary about the Boer war). Do Germans spread knowledge about Herero and Nama genocide? You people can learn here about his largely unknown piece of history, and instead being grateful you shout "propaganda!", "British were worse!". Pathetic. And insulting to the victims and their ancestors.

BBC propaganda again. Least we forget the bombing of a civilian city as Dresden, the Boer concentration camps killing 27,000 women and children and lets not forget the starving in India. All from the British.

i dont understand why people are referring to Britain to make this seem less bad, the fact that other nations have done horrible things does not justify anything

[NemesisMLT89]

oh god we're going to start using WW2 terms now also for WW1

Get over it, Britain wasn't a saint during its Empire days either.

Prussia ftw !

I grew up in Swakopmund, and I must admit, I never knew that those lumps in the sand were graves of slave labourers. I knew they were "black graves," but that was it. Interesting.
