No
Yes. We started a war against fucking Poland and lost 6 million men and a bunch of territory.
No. We usually were that smaller country.
What war was that?
We are the small country, that's why
The German-Polish border war of 1939
>Ireland
>Not humiliating
No
the emu nation xDDDDDDDD
It's kind of humiliating having to let go almost half your territory because of a fucking hyphen tho
>Ireland
Not embarrassing considering we were busy toppling your "Empire" concurrently.
Yes.
I thought Germans were smarter than this. It was a Czech guy that wanted to split Czechoslovakia because Slovakia is a Ukraine tier shithole, 15% gypsy, while Czechia was growing Slovakia was still an African shithole and Czechs had to keep getting taxed and their money send to Slovaks so they split
Irish independence was after the war afaik.
Ok, I could have remembered that incorrectly.
Yes
>Irish independence was after the war afaik.
Ireland began seriously fighting in 1916.
Well we lost Cisplatina(today's Uruguay).
>brit using quotation marks for other peoples "empires"
ultimate irony
>shitskin thinks the German Empire was a real empire
lmao
>british "empire"
>only major european empire to never have controlled a huge chunk of europe
>only controlled lands inhabited by backwards retards
>nearly collapsed multiple times when attacked by other european empires, only survived when bailed out by allies
>created israel
If Czechs were so superior why didn't they become the ruling class and fix Slovakia? Lost clay is lost clay.
How would we fix Slovakia? We gave them lots of gibs but they are still a shithole. Just like how EU gives so many gibs to Spain, Portugal, Poland, and they are still poor
Didn't lose it but did surprisingly bad against a bunch of berber tribes

1919-1921
Chinese "Empire"
>>only major european empire to never have controlled a huge chunk of europe
Define "huge chunk"
>>only controlled lands inhabited by backwards retards
And created the greatest countries on earth. What did the Germans control, an island in Papua New Guinea and a failed attempt at taking Morocco. Wow, great empire.
>>nearly collapsed multiple times when attacked by other european empires, only survived when bailed out by allies
Such as? If you think the great war or the second world war are examples of this you are just a misguided wog who needs to stop depending on the British Empire to sustain himself.
>>created israel
Does that make you mad?
It really started in 1916.
Fair, I do not know the issue well enough. If its anything like the US, when there is a shitty area, young inspired people with money come and buy houses and make the area nice. Then the value goes up and the investors make money.
Oh my god I forgot
>yfw Iceland NEVER lost a war
>controlled a huge chunk of europe for a few years during a war you lost
>"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""empire"""""""""""""""""""""""""""
The Netherlands, we were so butthurt after losing the war that we revised history like the gommies do.
>Ignoring the most obvious one
>Define "huge chunk"
any size
s-spain is that you?
speaking of this, you spaniards lost pretty hard to a bunch of newfoundland fishermen
>german and spanish navy vs some local newfoundland fish police
>lose
why do these british autists think i'm german lmao
>fishing dispute gets called a war in wikipedia
wtf
another fishing incident we had was when france shot at a spanish fishing boat in the 80's because the EU decided to extend its fishing area and we weren't in yet
Occupying an area is not actually owning it
your government also builds welfare housing in white safe neighborhoods importing violent niggers and crime
Why are you complaining about Britain while living in one of her colonies? Go somewhere else.
He said controlled. Scroll up.
Lmao nigger, the average wage in Tschechei is 900 euros lower than in Spain and 80 euros higher than in Poland and Slovakia, sit the fuck down
You can take the proxy off now, Padraig O'Shea, the gag's run its course
>queen of canada and king of spain are influded as if they gave a shit about a fishing dispute
Redpilled
Their economy is stagnating, Czechia has the lowest unemployment rate in the EU and the economy is growing very fast
>supporting dirty EU imperialists over our poor fishermen brothers in Newfoundland
We brought shame to our fathers that day.
I'm just a simple German man, who likes to remind the ANGLO of his wrongdoings and failures.
Yes, the Malvinas war
No in the late 1800's the USA actually lost a pretty large war against the Netherlands
Even worse, you lost to a non-country
No
Holding out against a modern power with a large population, the world's highest GDP, a powerful navy, the support of two of the mightiest empires of that age (England and France), and STILL getting away with half of the territory which included important places like Brussels and Antwerp, all while dealing with rebellions at home and war with half of the world, is not embarrassing. We regard the Dutch as a worthy adversary; if you ask any Spaniard who knows anything about history, everyone will say our worst defeat was Annual. Losing a whole modern army to illiterate tribesmen and needing to poison-gas civilians for years and ask France for help - now that was an embarrassment. The Rif war was such a shame that the king decided to replace our democracy with a military dictatorship, out of fear that the investigations into the corruption scandals leading to Annual would get himself impeached.
> bully an unarmed fishing ship
> "hey lads we won a war against the kingdom of Spain!"
Leafs, everyone
all our wars pretty much
t. lost
Yes
No.
Japan
No. If we were a large sized country we would conquer the world.

>Cod wars
So Iceland is indeed truly our greatest ally
Indochina
Started one year after WW2 we were trying to take it back after the japs took it but now they wanted independence
It lasted 8 years but we had no money nor forces to fight this
In the end we were so broke the USA was paying 80% of all our operation
Then the USA tried too
There's also Algeria
Even triggered a coup d'état at some point and a new republic
>twf your country beat Napoleon but then spent the next century trying to see how much blood you can squeeze from a serf while gradually became so backwards and isolated you get beaten by a bunch of manlet oriental heathens with a tradition of sucking at war every time they stepped off their tiny island.
Meanwhile my country beat Japan so hard they decided to just give up on war altogether.
Empire sucking wealth from all over the world loosing to its own colony. "we was small country"
Finland? We didn't lose, but it was sort of humilating to have so much dead when fighting country with almost no military industry.
>they decided to just give up on war
They didn't decide that, you forced a constitution on them and made them a puppet state until the present day.
>Positive k/d
>Literally destroyed japans economy
>Embarrassing
No. That I recall, we've only lost to bigger countries, or to massive coalition of forces, although some of those defeats were humiliating.
Eh, maybe that was the wrong word. Still a win though.
some birds
the easter rising was done by a small section of the IRA bud
the larger command had decided to call it off
uhum
Based as fuck, Bongs will never recover
>australia is still a british colony
>implying it isnt.
