Greatest Victory, was genociding the Indians
the worst defeat was not joining the Germans in WW2

That is the longest genocide in human history, go faster faggots

A perpetual war isn’t a victory dipshit.

Greatest Victory: Chancellorsville
Greatest Defeat: Gettysburg

Those were British troops you dumb leaf

imagine thinking that moving your entire race into an area that's at best 70 miles wide and surrounded by tribesmen that see it as their religious duty to exterminate you is a victory

tick tock yid

To the jew it is , they like the human sacrifice factor

You weren't even a country Besides for Canada it has to be Vimy ridge. Loss i would say when we burned York.

Give the leaf his victory asshole, poor little guy doesn't have much

never forget Mohács

Victory: definitely both world wars. Because schools teach that US involvement in both were the tipping point, for whatever reason

Defeat: I dunno, Vietnam I guess. But schools teach that the US just got bored and left, so technically not a loss

Godspeed United States standardized curriculum of false pride, under many gods, quite easily divisible, with liberty and justice for the chosen tribe

Day of the poisoned penny soon

I don't know shit about kokoda, but Gallipoli was a world class fuck up.

Victory: Mexico-American war
Loss: World War 1

Yeah man it was bad

Canada: defeated the abos and the cree were the toughest foe. Many today would lose a 1-1 battle to a cree youth in a street fight today.

Worst defeat was to the jews in the culture war after world war 2.

Greatest victory: WW2. We sure beat that meany Hitler and saved the Jewish race and bankers. Because of our sacrifice, our children can be free to pick their gender and be raped by Jamal

Worst defeat: Ooo, probably the American revolution

Kokoda 1000 untrained Australian men held off 10,000 Imperial Japanese soldiers in New Guinea before being reinforced 4 weeks later

Not Trafalgar? Also how bout the Somme?

Victory: battle of Chatha/raid on the Medway (defeated Royal Navy in its Thamea docks, took the English flagship as prize) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raid_on_the_Medway

Defeat: Dutch war (cemented the very slow byt steady decline of the Dutch empire) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franco-Dutch_War

Greatest victory: stealing clay from the North Sea.
Worst defeat: getting powned by the Germans in WW2 in basically a day.

Greatest victory: the American Revolution
Greatest defeat: The Federal Reserve Act of 1913

Wut is trafalgar? Somme? Wasn’t that in WW2?!!?!

You are either retarded or some fuckwit immigrant.

Neck yourself faggot.

That defeat is too fucking accurate.

Read up on your history boy.

Greatest victory was surrendering to Germany during ww2 and worst defeat was them leaving us

>Kokoda
>Not the Battle of Long Tan or even Kapyong

Pathetic

Eh.. first thing I thought of

Victory : Stalingrad
Defeat : Revolution

What are some real answers? Genuinely curious.

The Greatest victory was Vimy Ridge, the worst defeat was at Dieppe.

Of post unification Italy?

>Worst defeats:
A tie between Adwa (decisive defeat vs Ethiopia) and Caporetto (strategic breakout on the Isonzo by the Austrians in WWI), both strategically and tactically.

>Greatest Victories
Strategically, Vittorio Veneto, the killing blow to the Austrian Empire.
Tactically, I'd say this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_of_the_Savoia_Cavalleria_at_Izbushensky the last successful cavalry charge.

Interesting. I would've figured the Revolution would've been both your greatest victory and defeat

Fucked by british officers is a cop out.

More british died at Gallipoli than you lads. We lost like 30k to your 12k

>greatest victory
Battle of Midway
>greatest defeat
Probably the opening parts of the Korean War, to be fair it was coalition and ROK forces too but we were not ready for that one

Every single day.

>decisive defeat vs Ethiopia

Outnumbered
Outgunned
Outmanouvered

Yeah but it WAS a British campaign devised by Churchill and you guys had 6 times as many men in the campaign so obviously more losses

Not Marathon?

it was a fault of the Royal Navy freaking out about mines and landing all of us too far away from Istanbul. The idea of knocking out the ottomans from the war was sound.

Of course, without the Dutch Revolution, the country wouldn't even exist. But to say it was our greatest defeat? Many lives were lost, but that would be like saying the USSR lost ww2.

The historian in me understands entirely.
But the Jow Forumsack in me is laughing because you got BTFO by a bunch of niggers.

>Kasserine pass
not even the worst defeat we suffered in that war

Existing

What was more embarrassing then that?

And i would say you cant even call it an Australian defeat, you were part of the British Imperial Army.

Monash (australian general for those who dont know) and his pointless waste of australians and nzs after breaking the hindenburg line is more appropriate for an Australian blunder from top to bottom. Also your perfomance in Singapour during WW2 under your own command structure was a home grown fuck up too.

However i still believe Monash was the greatest general of WW1, hell i would go so far to say the Australians won the western front under him, but all you get taught is Gallipoli because it suits the stealth republican agenda in your country

T. Im half Australian and lived on aus army bases my whole childhood

It really wasn't our loss, we kinda just gave the country back to SV, and left what is essentially a CIA skeleton crew. Then SV lost the country and we evacuated whatever was left.
If we were able to actually invade NV during the occupation, we would have made the entire SE peninsula democratic 50 years ago. But nah, we were too worried about hurting China's feelings. We should have let the nips keep half their country after WWII.

greatest victory - Battle for Berlin
worst defeat - Mongolian invasion

Trafalgar probably. Biggest stakes and a very real risk of invasion if we lost. None of the shit in WW2 mattered, UK was untouchable by Germany as Kriegsmarine was trash compared to the navy.

Nah, you taught us how to build a fleet.

Greatest victory: Independence from Great Britain
Greatest defeat: the International Jew

Uhh...I'm Norn Iron so...Fuck, whatever Englands greatest victory was since the formation of the UK, i'll claim that

Oh kek I forgot I have a French flag, I'm on vacation

Before I die, I will still see the corpse of Great Britain floating by.

Why do Muslims like to die for Israel?

We knew all along.

This lmao

Greatest victory: I would've said Stalingrad but it was too costly, so no. Battle of Ugra River(Mongols BTFO)
Greatest defeat: (((Great revolution of 1918-1922)))

Greatest Victory: Battle of Delhi (1757) against the Mughal Empire
Greatest Defeat: Battle of Delhi (1857) against the British Empire

The natives kicked our fucking asses several times in the early centuries of colonial/independent America. I've always thought it's kind of insulting to the natives to say that they got "genocided," as though they were helpless victims. They lost a long and gruesome series of wars in which they won several battles. That seems more honorable.

Narva was probably the greatest victory
Greatest defeat was Poltava

How much was lost there?

Russians, dying for Britannia since the 18th century. Thanks guys

Geostrategically... the fact that we lost india was probably our biggest fuckup.

Of course that stemmed from WW2 and to an extent before that the 5 powers treaty at the end of WW1.

Greatest Victory: Battle of Midway - The battle that broke the back of the previously undefeated Japanese carrier arm. While we didn't contribute decisively in Europe, the Pacific front was entirely won by Americans.
Greatest defeat - Can we just say 'middle eastern adventurism' and leave it at that?

It's okay, everything has to end sooner or later

Too many victories to name.

As for defeats, 1453 comes to mind. Thanks european brothers, your knife in our backs still hurts.

Greatest Win - Waterloo
Greatest L - Singapore

There were more British Army troops in the Pacific theatre until 1945.

Single handedly winning world war 2 against the nazis.

greatest defeat is emus and gay marriage

Greatest win: Battle for the Yser

Greatest loss: Battle of Belgium

Not only Indians, although they were the biggest contributing force of the commonwealth. To say America won the Pacific theatre by themselves is laughable.

>middle eastern adventurism
Boy that's putting it mildly.

>Amerimutt education
>Actually being serious

Constantinople je Hellas

Greatest Victory: Winter Olympics
Greatest Defeat: Stamford Bridge

Win the battle, lose the war. There was no way they could set up industry like us, or stop the constant flow of new people moving west.

The only way they could've 'won' was to have someone like Tecumseh unite all the tribes and get international support from England. But the Battle of the Thames basically dashed all of those hopes. They ultimately failed to have a united front. But given the natives history with each other over the millennia it was bound to happen.
