>>17986582>>culturally superior to GermanyYour subjective opinion>>almost the entire world speaks fucking englishThis is overwhelmingly due to US cultural domination and has very little to do with the British>>50% of the world was at some point controlled by those 2 potenciesSo?>>many, many nations are "descended" from FranceSuch as? Irrelevant colonies?>>yet hopelessly and eternally inferior to Germany militarily, who are not nearly as influentialThe British fleet was dominant for centuries, France was the military juggernaut of continental Europe for centuries and Germany has been way more influential than you think.
They're frontier settler people. Good as pirates and frontiersmen but shit when it comes to the open field of battle. Too flighty and emotional, don't have the iron discipline and will that the germans do

>>17986582> >yet hopelessly and eternally inferior to Germany militarilyWho won the world wars again?
>>17986582Other way around. Germany is culturally superior, England is militarily superior. France is a joke though
Low effort D&C threadExpect plenty of Warsaw pact hyenas LARPing as Anglos
>>17986603>>culturally superior to Germany>Your subjective opinionObjectively is. What cultural relevance Germany had compared to France's or England ?
>>17987184Most famous philosophers and musicians were German. Most famous painters were DutchEngland only dominates literature and the French dominate nothing of relevance
Realistically Germany can't hold a candle to the military histories of France and England.Most of European history for the last 1,000 years has been:>England owns the oceans>All European policy is about stopping France dominating everythingIf we weigh France and England against one another, France wins the land battles and England wins the naval battles. Germany gets cucked on both.
>>17988413France never even tried to challenge Habsburg power until the 16th centuryMost of the Middle Ages, England was tiny and France was an irrelevant backwater constantly getting raped by England. Meanwhile the Habsburgs were Gods on earth
>>17988419>Middle Ages (meaning traditionally 500-1500 AD)>"the Habsburgs were Gods on earth"The Habsburgs only gained the emperorship in 1440 and to truly exert their influence beyond the Tyrol and the Alps after that point.>"France was an irrelevant backwater constantly getting raped by England"The Normans, vassals of the French king, invaded England in 1066. The French royal heir invaded England in 1216, with support from part of the English nobility. The Angevin kings (literally "from Anjou, France") ruled England for two centuries.France also contributed the main western effort to the Crusades, and especially the most successful First Crusade, led by the counts of Toulouse, of Boulogne, of Blois, etc.That's without mentioning France being the center of chivalry, other French ventures in Italy (Angevin dynasty of Naples), and the prestige of French monarchic tradition being copied internationally (with the English monarchy still using those same rites of coronation).Anon, I regret to inform you that you are fucking retarded.
>>17986582>Explain thisThey had better access to the sea. They sent a bunch of boats and conquered a bunch of savages. The end.
>>17986582tldr>France and UKhad boats>Germansmore people so bigger land army army once they united
>>17987184Beethoven and Mozart are arguably the two most famous people associated with "classical" or fancy music, Bach and Wagner are also well known names. Kant is popular in philosophy, Nietzsche is a well-known name even among the ones that don't study philosophy, The movable type printing press is one of the most influential inventions of all time. If you've ever seen blinged out medieval armor in pictures or in a museum then chances are it was from Augsburg. King Philipp II paid 3,000 ducats for a piece of armor around the same time Raphael at the top of his fame could charge around 170 ducats for an altarpiece. For reference Michaelangelo got paid 3,000 florins for painting the ceiling of the Sistine chapel, that should give you some idea of how valued decorated German armor was at the time. I don't know why you pretend like Germany has been culturally irrelevant over the centuries or why England and France have been militarily irrelevant in comparison. It comes across as retarded racebaiting.
French revolution and Napoleon bled the country of all its talents.
