in terms of midway the battle of coral sea is actually pretty important even though it was a tactical stalemate, the Japanese thought they were able to knock out two carriers while they were down for 2 as well, so in their mind midway was 4 vs 2 when it could have been 6 vs 4, except yorktown was put into action within 2 days, yorktown played a significant role in midway sinking 2 carriers

He said millitary victory, you didn't win a single battle in 1962

Brazil dont have an historic of foreign wars, we are seem as an peacefull nation, and we are proud of this position.
but once a time, brazil did go war...

we killed 80% of their male populance.. adults, teenagers, kids, babyes.. then we put fire in all of their cities, we bombed their capital with artilery for weeks, cut their leader head and made its all way to our capital, so our king could see it with his own eyes and authorize the cease fire.
then leaving, after killing their husbands out troops raped their woman, so the mensage to never fuck with brazil again could be finnaly delivered.
after almost 150 years since out victory they still being nothing more than a brazilian puppet state, with a long generation of brazilian rape-children descendents making most of their populance, we never paid any restitution, and we will never do, because they depend on us to keep their joke country running

3 v 1 isn't fair

pourquoi tu cope ?
si vous aurez gagner
vous l'aurez garder

against who ?

brazil argentina and uruguay invaded paraguay

They almost lost btw

no, they massacred paraguay killing majority of males

Not the US, but I'm very impressed on Germany's victory over France in WW2.

and why ?

1870
and the two world wars were 3vs1
so its not that bad

If there were fair fights, there would be no winners. You don't win by being equal to your opponents.

paraguay wanted to take parts of land that used to belong to them which included parts of those countries where they intersect, did some raiding

Lopez was the one retard who delared war to the largest armies in south america at the same time, we still being the ones who made most of the war effort.
the war was not popular and was the very main reason of the republican coup, but yeah, we did that we had to do

The Paraguayan dictator Solano López saw himself as a South American Napoleon who'd make an empire. He attacked Brazil and soon after invaded the Argentine province of Corrientes

Uruguay did nothing and Argentina was more occupied with regional rebellions. Brazil fought alone after 1866.

dont worry it was you and a few bad allies vs the world. cant blame you guys

the civil war

fuck confederates

More like it was nearly the entire continent of Europe vs Russia, but they took so long fighting them Britain and America joined in.

scum

German and Italy and Romania vs Russia UK and the USA? yeah it doesnt seem very balanced desu

a single country cant win against all three
major power in the world a the same time

Why Hitler made a war then?

he was quite stupid duh

More like Whole Europe against USSR.

No. They just refused to resign even thought they were sending all of their men into a meat grinder.

germany have single chance of winning the war by crushing the british during dunkirk or battle of britain
by kicking out the bongs
enigma could not be open
no lend lease
hitler could zerg rush trough russia by the middle east and europa

Based paraguay. Would be funny if they tried it again.

and the Us and the Uk of course. The whole of europe? More like Germany Italy and Romania

The United Kingdom and United States of America couldn't bring all their resources to bear until 1944. Before then it was objectively the Soviet Union versus most of Europe. Try and rewrite history if you wish to make the losers look better, but that's the truth. The Reich had a near-monopoly over Europe's coal and steel and most of the continent's resources and manpower and they still fucked it up because they couldn't manage to create a centrally-coordinated production system like the Soviets until it was too late. They had more resources than the Soviet Union, but were too retarded to use them right.

wtf was the empire of haiti?

Can SOMEONE give me the qrd on this? Trading fishing boats?

All of the axis powers wouldn't have had the man power to zerg rush the USSR. plus having all the resources of mainland europe still wasn't enough for Nazi germany to keep up with the Soviets

It's well known that we only lose, so none.

YEAH.

We captured a spanish trawler and detained the sailors on it. the EU and spain threw a shit fit. We claimed the trawler was fishing in our waters and eventually the EU recognized our claim in the grand banks.

fuck that. Local patriotism is what matters.

In the 10th century, Frisians and Oldenburger joined forces to fight together against the Vikings.
A strong Viking force landed on the Frisian coast and plundered inland.
After plundering several rich cities, they were ambushed on their way back to their ships by the allied forces. All the Vikings were killed, their ships burned, and of course the rubbish was kept.
After that the Vikings never landed here again.

Canada did really well in WWII as well.

kek I hate how all Muslims love Hitler just because they're asshurt at Jews

Man, the more i read about Lopez, the more i find him to be unbelievably BASED. Latin America could've been a whole ambitious country, 1 (one) people under the rule of a great leader who was eager to conquer the world. I have no doubts had he suceeded, we would've invaded USA and Europe, and probably would be involved in the main WWs as key players. Instead, faggot ass D. Pedro not only did a terrible war crime but also got BTFO by republicans as a result of that stupid war he almost lost.

their love of hitler would be justified if the holocaust actually happened

Who is Holo Klaus?

Probably Bouvines or Austerlitz, though Bonaparte's campaigns in Italy were remarkable as well.

What?..

>if the holocaust actually happened
yikes

Will give (you)s guys?

we dont love hitler
for us he is like another historical character
not 'muh epic evil darklord'

bouvines est plus importante
sans phillipe auguste la france se ferait bouffer

prove it happened pro-tip you can't so shut up libtard

Obviously Russia has had numerous military achievements, you wont get much attention, since most people come here to see what kind of shit the irrelevant countries will use to prove they're stronk.

here you go rusky

Yeah, Russia is one of the most powerful country in the world and it btfo'd almost all countries in europe several times.

I can't find any clear victory USA got on their own.

the pacific campaign is pretty clear imo

Didn't the UK, France, India, Australia, New Zealand and the Netherlands also fought in the Pacific campaign?

yes, except they only came to help when we were winning

and China

china was its own theater, it had no navy

Yes, but they weren't really significant outside of their immediate areas.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Austerlitz

I'd like to say Agincourt, but in spite of multiple crushing victories over the French like that during the Hundred Years' War, we still somehow lost in the end.

Can't say WW1 or WW2 because our victories in those wars was on paper only, and in the end everyone but the USA came out a loser.

There's Waterloo, but we didn't win that alone, only as part of a coalition, so I don't know if it counts as "our" victory.

Struggling to think of a good, decisive victory we enjoyed alone that wasn't against backwards savages from the stone age.

Trafalgar

>Civil War

>Mexican-American War
Less than 2000 Americans killed in battle -> meme war

Allies but I give you this one

Don't know how that one slipped my mind. Yeah, probably has to be that.

>Less than 2000 Americans killed in battle -> meme war
You couldn't argue with the results. :^)

It was the first actual war on foreign soil fought by the US Army and conducted extremely well with no battlefield defeats. It gave many officers experience they would need later for the Civil War.
