I believe this should probably belong in the "Polls and Presentations" board. Good way to educate us! Maybe you could post more videos on historical topics? But don't do them on S. America, thats my thing!  |

*You've got mail*
It's from the new leader of Germany, he has a cool mustache, wants to take over the world and needs friends. This message was also forwarded to Italy
Russia: No, don't take that, we were gonna build a railway to here to try and get some warm water
So Russia built its railway, supervised by a *Auto Corrected* ton of soldiers. And when the railway was finished they downgraded to a *Auto Corrected* ton. Did I say downgrade, I mean upgrade.

But in August 1914 there were hundreds of thousands of marriages across the country because men didn't want to fight |

The patriotism in Russia was a joke. Only worse was Austria-Hungary (not when fighting Italy though). The most patriotism was probably on French and German side

Jean Lannes, agreed. The British, Canadians, South Africans and the Americans fought very bravely and patriotically in the war as well though. Out of all the people in the war, I'd say the Belgians and Canadians fought the most valiantly, while the Americans fought tenaciously and thus dealt the decisive blow to the Germans. French patriotism by 1917 was not very high, though. By that point, revolution was very possible and there was a very large strike against the French government where French soldiers literally dropped their guns and stopped fighting for a few months I believe.

Yes, I forgot the Canadians. They'd be #1 likely in all honest. They saved (possibly) the whole allied front line in 1915 for example. |
