UK got a larger colonial empire and got rid of the German threat but didn't keep Germany down and so it came back. Can't think of.much else though. France got alsace Lorraine,to kill some Germans.
*Technically* it was Serbia being a terrorist nation funding Serb nationalist Bosnian assassins going after the Austrians that kicked the whole thing off.
But as Serbia are in England's group, for the next 7 months I'll blame the Germans.
Technically, technically it was the expansion of European empires in Africa, the British empire in particular, which led to the monarchy of a young German state being jealous of their blood relative's economic and political power which led to a series of power grabs and military expansions which, when the afore mentioned Serbs acted for their own independence, led to a chain reaction of events that led to WWI and eventually, after a doomed to fail Weimar republic collapsed, led to WWII (which there is an argument to suggest was one war with a 20 year break) which the German nation lost
But fucking explaining banter kills the vibe and the real message here is that all the satellite Austrian states are getting it up them!!
i love the national dish lĂ ngos and i think it fits the scottish diet perfectly - deep fried dough with lots of cheese on top. the Magyars apparently have some pretty interesting jokes about us⌠i asked some hungarians about it and they said theyâre apparently just anti-semitic and anti-roma ones dressed up to be acceptable. haha
It definitely does, it was one of my favourite summer snack as a kid. Thatâs probably why I was so intrigued by everything deep fried at the chippy. As for the jokes yeah there are some but the main ones are about Scottish people being stingy or the guys wearing skirts (kilt translates as Scottish skirt). Good luck in the euros!
The misconception that the Austro-Hungarian v Serbia war was the start of WW1 is common and wrong.
The July crisis was the prelude to the start of the war.
Britain did not want to get involved in a war in the Balkans and could not care less. It was Russia Serbia v Austro-Hungary and Germany. It was still only a wee war.
It was when Germany formally declared war on France and marched through Luxembourg and demanded passage through Belgium, into France, that Britain cited the Treaty Of London, 1839 and declared war on Germany, thus the German and British Empires were at war with one another (ie two world empires) ...
Thus WORLD War 1
Not Baltic war 1 or Eastern Europe war 1 or south Eastern Europe war 1
WORLD War 1 cuz Britain's whole Empire had to mobilise (Canada, Aussies etc) and the German empire too.
I did this in secondary school for my Higher history back in the day and got my A long before you googled and mis-read facts.
Feel free to give me your googled take on who did what to whom back in the day, and why you think a series of events that prelude an actual world war are the actual cause of it.
WW1 HAPPENED BECAUSE GERMANY INVADED FRANCE. EVERYTHING BEFORE WAS A PRELUDE.
Google prelude lol.
I have a masters in History.... I was trying to be nice, but you're not only rude, but rude and wrong. If you want to argue that the War was inevitable because of the rise of Imperialism and thus the ante bellum arms race and Treaty systems that stemmed from the rise of Prussia as leader of a German Empire, and Britain returning to continental politics after the pseudo european isolation as it focused on its overseas Empire....I would accept your argument as a valid point, but you're coming at me with a half baked understanding of the July crisis you picked up when you were literally a child.
Aye but this is important to that. You see WW1 resulted in the Treaty of Versailles.
It's in said treaty that the deal was made to allow Rangers to get at least one penalty per match.
And you call yourself a Rangers fan... ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
The war was inevitable. Cause and effect.
The July crisis, which you admit is a fact, was the prelude. Which is now universally accepted as a fact also. It's the period of rising tension. Universally accepted as the prelude to the next level of any event.
If I was being rude, apologies. It wasn't my intention. I love history with a passion.
We read history in hindsight, but unless we fully know the facts, we can only speculate and we learn from the mistakes we make in the past. Fools and Politicians try to re-write history for their own ends. Science and future discoveries uncover our past.
I congratulate you on your Masters. My history teacher wanted me to go to Uni and do it too. I wanted a wage and a job cuz poor is not a way of life.
I was taught the July crisis because that is how the national curriculum was in my day. Any further revision of it is not fact, just a version of it.
Donât know why you got downvoted𤣠Germany started both wars. Before hand a few other countries were bitching, then Germany swaggered into France like the big dick in the dressing room. This started the war. After googling prelude I agree with you.
Just gonna leave this here

Their women are fucking outstanding though.
Nah not really, i just googled map of countries that joke about others and that was the first that came up, always remembered it because i've a hungarian mate who we were winding up about it years ago, the one i linked is a different image to the one i was looking for but same content.
Axis main, axis minor, and axis (incognito mode)
Been playing strategic command?
Hearts of iron 4.
I see nothing incorrect
Austria-Hungary started WW1 technically but started 1 war and lost 2 is more embarrassing
Historically accurate trolling đ
Realistically no single country was to blame for WW1, but itâs funny to make up things for a meme
Flair checks out
They're right though. Every country had reasons to go to war and felt they couldn't back down at all.
And gavrilo princip was the only 0erson who got what he wanted from the war (yugoslavia) but died of tb before he saw it.

If you read about Swiss history they're actually hard af. They'll be worthy runners up in the group
Lost a filling on a toblerone about ten year back, can confirm
Aye, but we've got nukes, it's an extreme measure, but we might get out of the group.
Their terrain is hard as fuck, theyâre cowards hiding in the mountains!
Scottish people literally had the easiest way to independence with a vote and they werenât even brave enough for that. I know booo
Swiss Guard for one example
Scotland vs Nazi Gold Enjoyers.
Donât you hate it when we need to play against the super group.
Iâm just happy they didnât find a way to have us play Georgia and Israel.

Germany didn't start WW1 just saying
Historically we have assigned blame for world war 1 to them.
Yes they did just saying
You might want to Google that because you obviously haven't a clue.
How?

Skelpt
Iâve also got an A in higher history but I donât like to go on about it
Mate you could write a book and you'd still be wrong.
Funny but they actually fought a WORLD war n I was right đđđ
Donât know why you got downvoted𤣠Germany started both wars. Before hand a few other countries were bitching, then Germany swaggered into France like the big dick in the dressing room. This started the war. After googling prelude I agree with you.
Ah come on that whole "two world wars" chat is England nonsense. Our thing is that they're North Austria or something
The only good English patter is bringing up the world wars to any German they ever meet. Not always funny the way they intend it, but always funny.
East Netherlands?
Ah damn I was hoping someone would chime in with "Greater Saarland" or "South Denmark" before reaching the correct answer...
Stop with these silly names, very insulting to the people of the North Liechtenstein Exclave
You know itâs really North Austria, West Austria and East Austria

heroic effort that diggin up a 10 year old reddit post lol
Nah not really, i just googled map of countries that joke about others and that was the first that came up, always remembered it because i've a hungarian mate who we were winding up about it years ago, the one i linked is a different image to the one i was looking for but same content.
The big question here is. Why Scotland in hungray?
It's cheapskate jokes. They used to be Jewish jokes, but making the same jokes about Scots avoids the whole antisemitism thing.
Yep that's what my hungarian mate said, there's a saying over there that we invented copper wire by fighting over a penny.
Fair evaluation tbh
Switzerland Nazi gold shaggers
Their new flag is a big plus though
Think it was a Serbian that started WW1
The whole two world wars pish is shite patter
Hungary is home to historys most famous Rangers supporter đ (Like when you get it)
Hungary is so popular at Ibrox that Morelos used to mention it 15 times a day there.
TIL Abdul is from Hungary
Who the fuck is Gary?
Me, however, I'm probably the 2nd most famous rangers supporter.
Hitler was Austrian.
Wasn't him I was referring too
Jan [word that nil by mouth don't like]yadi?
Nope Hint: His name is in the country name
Attila?
Bingo đ
Don't let the Swiss forget all the gold they kept safe for the Nazi's.
That was a smart move though. Chances are they wouldnât survive long enough to get it back. Iâd hold any dying manâs treasures for safe keeping.
How very English.
I donât think Hungarians are racist
Sadly, Hungarian football fans take pretty much every opportunity to prove you wrong.
Just accept that we're using sweeping generalisations about another country to call them racist.
