#4 whatthe hell happened too the race that deefeated the romans

That was 2,000 years ago, rabid whitetail. Since then the German lands were the battlefields on which the Hundred Years War was fought, Germany lost two world wars, and seems to have suffered the worst of the Great Depression. All they want now is comfort and security, and they don't care what it will cost to get it. The culture's warrior ethos died of hunger and cold. As for the rest of Europe, it appears they, too, sold their inheritance for a mess of pottage.

#6 they suffered the worst of the great depression because of all the war repatrations they where supposed too pay under the Versailles Treaty, whether it was 2000 yrs ago or not they DID defeat the Romans and if not for the Americans entering into WW2 they may have won it. But you can't deny they have had some kick ass Armies over the years and equipment not too mention was it German SF that did the rescue of the Israeli hostages at the Munich games? Of course the French also took over most of Europe under Napoleon tooso i guess every nation has something in their past too be proud of.

#7 TW, I think you mean the Thirty Years War?

The Hundred Years War was fought in what is now France.

#8 no mo uro, you are quite right -- I shouldn't have capitalized it. But as I recall, the Thirty Years War was part of an ongoing peace process* that lasted about a hundred years, ending finally with the Peace of Westphalia. What I should have written was, "one hundred years of war" or "one hundred years of religious wars".

*consistent with current usage, particularly in the Middle East.

#9 ION, IIRC WAFF [old] > THE END OF EUROPE IS HERE/NOW, NOT LATER, or to that effect. NUTSHELL > NO BABIES = GERIATRIC/DYING GREECE as symbol for rest of EU.

DITTO for JAPAN.

As indic yestiddy, JAPAN'S COMMUNIST PARTY (S) is making new + important gains in RECESSION-HIT JAPAN = FUTURE COMMIE JAPAN: while RADICAL ISLAM waits for simil demographically-dying, NUCLEAR RUSSIA TO TURN MUSLIM ON ITS OWN.

WAR = MIL/JIHADIC CONQUEST MAY NOT BE NECESSARY VEE WHAT THESE NATIONS ARE DOING TO THEMSELVES.
