  1. The Ottoman never alway had it their way. Battle of Ankara: July 20, 1402 the only time in the 500-year history of the empire that a Sultan was captured in battle (he died after three months in captivity). The Battle of Vienna 1683 was the end of Ottoman westward advances .

  4. Free Ireland siding with England would be like Palestine fighting for Israel or Tibet fighting for China.

  5. After the American and French Revolution the monarchy system was looking silly. The WW1 Russian Revolution and fall off the German Caesar and Austria was the death nail to that interbreed ruling system.

  6.  @AJ-ox8xy  America is a Empire that can vote for a new king every 4 years.

  9. Britain declared war on Germany for invading Poland and at the end of the war Stalin took Poland anyways. Pointless war since Stalin and Hitler were clones.

  12.  @otsolaine3845  The 7 year war made Prussia (Germany) Austria and Russia monarchies a stand out power. WW1 stomped the monarchies out.

  15.  @SteezyRedStars  Actually the British Parliament and Prime Minister has been the true power even before ww1. Queen Victoria for example could not declare a war or end a war , like the Czar of Russia or King of Austria Hungary could in her time.

  20. He was wrong about Rome. The Ottoman never alway had it their way. Battle of Ankara: July 20, 1402 the only time in the 500-year history of the empire that a Sultan was captured in battle (he died after three months in captivity). The Battle of Vienna 1683 was the end of Ottoman westward advances .

  21. Stalin took over the governments in Albania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, East Germany, Poland, Romania and Yugoslavia. Only Greece and occupied Austria remained free. The Baltic countries—Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania—were made into republics. Even Finland was partly controlled by the Soviets. Its not like Bulgaria had a choice in anything.

  22. The Manhattan Project was a massive two billion dollar project . No way the Germans had the resources and man power to both fight a war and develop the bomb like the US could.

  23. We could have let the Japanese stay if thats would have been better?
    4
  24. Best they lost. It would have took them alot longer to kick the Japanese out in WW2.

  25.  @101Mant  Germany was heading east not west before Britain declared war. Germany was a little country of 70 million people it sure was not planning on occupying all of Europe and the USSR. The math would not allow that.

  26.  Luís Filipe Andrade  Most of Russia is in Asia. So Russia had rights to take Poland ,Czechoslovakia, Romania and Hungary after the war and part of Finland?
    3
  27. How do you take over the world with a population of 70 million people? How do you take America without a navy to even get to it?

  28. Good thing Spain did not bring the Apaches and Geronimo along.

  29. Today Africa , comes to Italy.

  30. Still would have fell no matter. Muslim countries put Religion before Education. They just fell way behind the industrial nations in technology. They were strong in the horse ,sword and shield days but steam engines , internal combustion engine, air planes and electricity ended those days. Even today the restrict education to women and Religions studies is a actual course in their universities,

  31. Its named after a Spanish King and nobody change the name in 500 years?

  32. Starts a 2:13 .

  33.  e-man  The war was all but over before Berlin . That's why we let the Russians do their Stalingrad street rubble fighting and lose 200,000 troops over a city that just could have been surrounded and starved out.

  34. Then How did Carthage fight in the Sicilian wars from 580–265 BC? Carthage fell in 146 BC so your math makes Carthage only a 186 year civilization?

  35. Your talking to people here that think Persians were muslims.

  36. Being from Canada it hard to believe these small European countries can have so many different cultures and languages. Surrounded by Spain ,Portugal having a different language than Spain really blows me away.

  37.  Luís Filipe Andrade  Russia took all of eastern Europe at the end of the war , so what was the differance?
    2
  38. Smart move . Sit back wait for D-Day then Un-Surender. The Russians would have fought in the rubble of Paris like Stalingrad until backed into the Mediterranean sea.

  39. Ireland fighting for Britain is like Palestine fighting for Israel or Tibet fighting for China. Look up the Irish famine.

  40. Worst yet. Our Ally Stalin (USSR) took all of Poland after the war until 1989.

  41. They were broke after the War . The US found all the German gold in a salt mine at wars end.

  42.  @michaelyeshiwas4855  After Roman fell the Romans , they must have all move out of Italy for good.

  43. Rome was a grass hut when Sparta fell. Alexander the Great was not even born.

  44.  @kasadam85  OH , I agree Education has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Religion and visa versa. But countries that put Education ahead of Religion tend to do better than Countries that but Religion ahead of Education. When you restrict women in education you just eliminated 50% of your population from contributing. You can't compete with with a 50% handicap in today's world , it's simple math.

  45. The brainwashed North Irish are ok with with the god save the queen thing.

  46. I,m very sure Germany would have gave Britain and France back once Russia entered Berlin and Germany surrendered.
    2
  47. Denmark took 6 hours.
    2
  48. True. And they did decide to Un-Surrender after D-Day. They could have hung back as we went east to stop the Russians , Oh, I mean Germans ,sorry ,in 1944.

  49. It was a embarrassment.

  50. No Stalin was the Hitler on our side. That's the only difference.
