Yea too op after both of the ww updates germany got nerfed really bad but its taking its place in the meta again! Usa china and russia are the military meta rn tho
@Yeproboi 🇺🇦 In the History, when Prussia defeat France in 1763, everyone Say: France and Prussia will never fight again ! And Napoleon the first arrived. In 1815, it was the same reaction, and in 1870, Germany invaded France. In 1914, it was the same but France won aaaand "it's the very last Time uh" And Hitler arrived for 1940. Why did anyone come, now ? :0
@@dercolonel2081 pfft with Germany? Only less than 2 centuries? Sure its been ever since the creation of Germany but thats really rookie numbers, the thing is with old countries comes old rivalries and France was just about everyone's rival so like 500 years for spain Nearly 1000 years for England etc...
@DZL Japan didnt attack because they already had to deal with China, the U.S and Britain IIRC. Having another Enemy to deal with wouldn't benefit them at all.
@DZL Japanese Empire wouldn't surrender ( until the 2nd nuke came ) and took most of East Asia without support, and don't get me started on how they treated people there
I love you brother great land and great history! France Revolution and napoleon probably my favorite parts in our lore of human history.. And I'm a history nerd
@@sisjnwjwk7832 as a french i had always been welcome in germany, we are friendly peoples but politics create a shallow barrier, love from french britanny
I am a History Student and i love both countries, with history i believe IT gives you a greater Connection to them. Next to the british, spanish and the russians, the Germans and the french were Just so powerful in the past and influencing the world as europeans. ITS Just awesome.
@@blazefn8941 m’y great grandpa is dead , he lost his leg with mines during the First World War but we found his diary where he wrote that he even didn’t know why they was fighting . He spoke German a little bit
@H.K où est-ce qu’on se fait malmener? Les commentaires sont tous assez équilibrés et en plus j’ai vu pleins de commentaires d’Allemands que complimentent La France, donc je fais pareil pour eux (et c’est vrai aussi que j’aime notablement ce pays).
No, that's a myth if you look back at history you can see the reality and technology at the turn of the 20th century was developing so fast that it was a benefit to have their elite completely taken out and their old infrastructure destroyed.Why do you think that the "backward" Japan also recovered so quickly and ended up even outpacing Germany. It's no coincidence that it was only these 2 countries that were completely destroyed, and neither have a particularly successful history, before those wars as unified nations, if you compare them to traditional historical powers, yet they both end up 2nd and 4th richest countries in the world, By1980s Technology was ramping up in the 20th century and the best position to be in, was to be able to introduce something as close to a meritocracy as possible and modernise industries as much as possible, also.This is why it's no coincidence. also, that the 2 most developed and successful nations in the history of this planet (Britain and France) declined, so much since those wars - They still had an elite with vested interests, which not only wanted to continue to police the world, as world powers(eg:Suez canal), but also had vested interests in not letting a meritocracy occur and also limited the amount of changes to infrastructure, which they continued to own. If you don't believe me, go back and look at how dominant Britain was in emerging industries at the turn of the 20th-century e.g. automobiles, and then look at what industry they have now by comparison.Their industries were not supported properly to advance and develop, unlike in Germany and Japan
bro internet is so dumb, ww2 defeat was a strategic position defeat the french army couldn’t defend Paris because German tanks moved faster so Paris was lost and without defenses in the south, French army though it was lost so they surrendered. Also, with the surrender, the Germans created Vichy state of France so France would be in the German new world because France is Germanic, if you don’t believe me on France being Germanic, just look at French genetics in the north: r1b is the German dna
I love the french language, the flag, the cities... But Germany will always be special cuz there are MILLIONS of them here in Croatia rn!! Love to both from Croatia 🇭🇷❤️🇫🇷🇩🇪
I‘m really shocked that you associated it with the N-time. I mean that this countries should hold together and fight for peace. PS. My grandparents were victims in this war. You should take this topic serious. Otherwise it would be a slap in the face for all victims.
We just did it because our military was fucking crap before! Thanks Merkel! So we do just equip German Military and do not make them that much stronger
France used to have by far the largest population in Europe, one in every 4 European was French, but in the 19th century their birth rate fell earlier than the rest of Europe.
Now France has one of the most stable birth rates in Europe. Countries like Germany, Japan or China have ageing and soon to be declining populations where's France doesn't have those problems.
@@SOMEONE-cd9wf no the french are dying just like the japanes and other but refugese from north africa and other places is what keeping the birth rate stable
@@JohnnyTheBest Germany didn't exist in the year 1800. Prussia had a population of 12 million are you really gonna use 1/4 of the country to compare population size? "Germany" as in areas part of the HRE at the time had roughly million pepole living there at the time. The estimated population of the empire excluding Italy was about 31 million.
@@HermineGranger111 congratulations. I've been to Germany and something I noticed was how clean everywhere was, also the Christmas markets are awesome and Oktoberfest of course.
German love coming from the USA 🇺🇸❤️ 🇩🇪 every German I've ever met was soo nice. My grandmother, the sweetest woman alive, her parents are also from Germany.
USA has a huge number of people of German descent. When I hear of Americans with super German last names, I always wonder whether they are aware of their heritage, haha.
Oy btw there is a fact that is wrong in the stats of this video : when it say France is least populated than the UK We are 68 millions in France (2021 updated) UK have 67 millions Often this false population stat for France come out in the news in US/Canada but it's wrong because it doesn't include french overseas departments (Guadeloupe, Martinique, Reunion, Mayotte, French Guiana) and territories/collectivities (Saint Martin, New Caledonia, Wallis and Futuna, Saint Pierre and Miquelon and French Polynesia) It's like not using Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico population when counting US population because it's not technically boarding USA mainland, it would be messed up right?
@@deez69nutshuge tf colonial empire are you talking about ? They are mostly french citizens, got french citizens right, got eu citizens right and can vote for the french president or anything else
@@deez69nutshuge bruh they do lmao(ever heard of the european space base or some shit like that? It's in french Guiana) and nope separatist movements are not suppressed they hold referendums and most of them would do worse without France, staying with France is a lot better for them than to go independent
Deutschland!! Yeah I think they won. I wasn’t born in Germany but I spent 5 years of my youth there and learned a bit of the language so I’m a little biased.
I see you being propagandised.Every time? They've only been around since 1871. They rose be,come the strongest economy "wants", Guts and that was only because the infrastructure was ruined, their elites wiped out, which gave them the capability to completely modernise the martial funding and introduce more of a merry geography, while the traditional powerhouses in Europe, where heeld back by vested interests, didn't modernise enough and got outpaced within a couple of decades, Why do ou think Japan (Backward nation technologically throughout "modern history"), outpaced even Germany within a few decades. It's a pity for that wartime generation for the suffering they had, but ironically, halfway through the 20th century was the best time Ironically, for the "current "generations, for the economy to have been needing to be completely rebuilt
@@UnknownUnknown-gv3pn They made some big mistakes, but their politicians are still way ahead of most countries. Look at Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean countries for example.
y'all I meant in 1945 they fell down into not into the top 1 spot so they fell down at above top 20 in 1945 since they are weak without Hitler but in 2022 they are much stronger but not the top 10 spot
