Yep. Cos in the early 19th century the powers that be would go out of there way to recruit from all around the world despite, for example, the UK having the best navy and officer corps on the planet back then. Yep. I am so immersed in all this historical diveristy.

Oh and can I just point out how incredibly stupid the no mans land scenes are? If that bitch can be brought to a dead stop but with 1 or 2 machine gun positions what do you think a coordinated effort would produce? A bitch getting blasted the fuck back to the allied lines. Either have her unflinchingly marhing across no mans land as all the lead the germans can throw do nothing or don't have that scene. It's not like her shielf is tiny in proportion to the rest of her body so if she really was relying on armour to stand her ground; well then. Mince her legs. She drops the shield to cover her legs. Pulp her face. These are Krauts we are on about here afterall. Not exactly dumb cannon fodder like the Red Army... I mean when the Brits deployed tanks the Krauts just made what amounted to a 50 cal rifle that allowed a two man team to effectively take on tanks. Dumb scenes with no thought for cannon, continutity or logic really take me out of a film.

@BWMagus And pray tell what was the represenation of Indians in the British Army going into ww1? Not exactly breaking even the 10% range... And that is not even going into what the average person thought of people from colonial territories. Also when such forces were deployed were they done so in mixed nationality formations? Nope. The best you'd get is a ethnic officer of the colonisers (as in ethnic, not nationality) officer directing foriegn grunts. I am British and know my history quite well. It was not until around the 1950s that even 1% of the British Isles was not "white". But according to shitty media works like this Wonder Woman film 19th century Britain, and all Western countries for that matter, was awash with all skin tones under the sun... Bullshit. Also can you show me an example of colonial powers going out of their way to staff their top teams and projects with foriegners? Even where it could have helped the attitudes of the time largely made it verboten or at the very least distasteful. I mean. What % of the Burmese defenders in ww2 were Britons as opposed to local forces? That could've worked thermatically and historically for muh diversity quotient but friggin ww1? Fuck off film.
