In all honesty and completely unironically, the nation of Germany is the protagonist of history.
>>
This is the part of the movie where the protagonist is down on his luck and going through a sad montage

still far from the end of the movie though

Nah, China fits that role best. After that it's the US, then it's the UK, France, and Germany.

Because they are literally in the center of Europe in a time when global history was solely defined by Europe. Of course they were going to be the main character. But as much as I like Germany, by themselves they have not archieved much that will outlast their legacy, not since the High Middle Ages. They had their chance in WW1 to become the next Rome and blew it, and since 1970, history shifted towards countries outside Europe. Sucks for them, but at least they dragged down France and Britain with them.

The British people are ironically the protagonists and history revolves around them, including their descendants in America. You can’t touch on any topic in history without mentioning Albion.

I like how Rammstein somehow just kinda got away with an extremely nationalistic music video about Germany being the protagonist of history by just casting Germania as a black lady. how do they do it?

History's protagonist only came into existence in 1871?
Meaning that history's protagonist only existed for 2.2% of the story?

According to ricecel diasporoids and bots

>Counting the State as part of traditional Saxony
Rooky mistake. Saxony, as in the Bundesland, only has that name because it was a feudal fief of the Wettins, but it's not part of the traditional tribal Saxony of the Migration and Heathen Era.

Did you listen to the lyrics of the song? It's hardly ultra nationalistic.
Anyways Lindemann dindu nuffin fr fr, the allegations haven't stood up to any actual legal investigation.

France had the French revolution which impacted the world. Same with Britain for starting the industrial revolution. Germany is only an important supporting role. They were never a primary mover.
>>
>>18662465
The Reformation was more consequential than the French Revolution, breaking up the religious system that had dominated Europe for a millenium. The Reformation started a new chapter in the history of the West, and you can trace basically everything that happened in the West in the last 500 years back to it. Yes, the Reformation was not just a German thing, but Germans were the ones starting it (the same way like the French Revolution also was partially the expression of influences that came from other countries). Yeah, the Industrial revolution might be more consequential than the Reformation as a singular event, but i would still give Germany the edge over Britain overall. Germany also has the Printing Revolution, with the printing press arguably as the most important singular invention of at least the last 1000 years. I would say, Germany produced more great philosophers, scientists, artists, inventors ... than Britain (Britain has the edge in literature). A lot of modern Western thinking can be traced back to Germany. Germany is also the birth place of the modern university. Aditionally, Germany was the center of European politics for 300 years (even more, if we include Charlemagne). You later had Austria and Prussia as European Great Powers, and also German Dynasties ruling other European Empires. Britain obviously comes close, but i think, the German record is even greater.

also English is a Germanic language, and Mountbatten-Windsors are literally German

Israel is the main character. They've been there, causing trouble, ever since the Roman Empire

>Protagonist of history
Inferiority complex alert!
Imagine thinking this arbitrary world has any preference toward anyone.
Give it a few more centuries and the entire euroshits delusions will disappear like fart in the wind. Then, we have to deal with chinks or whoever the fuck else that gains a couple centuries of global prominence then yaps endlessly about it after its long over.

The reformation was started by lollards in england and the most important protestant theologian was calvin who was french
>>
>>18662802
This was true only since 1945.
Prior to that, it was France and Britain that were conquered and raped by Romans and then Germans.
Germany could be said, again prior to 1945, to be the sole "great Nation" in Europe that was never conquered. Russia was conquered by the Vikings and Mongols. Greece by Romans and Turks. Italy by Germanics. Spain by Romans, Germanics, Arabs. Already mentioned France and Britain. Nearly all the royal houses in Europe were German houses.
But in 1945 Germany was indisputably conquered and defeated. In my opinion they will not recover from that ever.
