We'd have a foreign German monarch which just seems stupid since we made such an effort to get rid of the foreign Russian monarch. I really don't understand what the monarchists in 1918 were thinking, it sort of invalidated the entire independence movement, so in that sense I'm glad the germans lost ww1

>>220352350
My country is much better run than Germany on basically all levels, even now that we've gotten a bunch of retarded populists in parliament.

>The King of Prussia, as German Emperor, was not sovereign over the entirety of Germany; he was only primus inter pares, or first among equals.

All of Europe should be an Empire with local monarchs a la HRE.
>>
>>220353372
When did I say that?
>>220353286
That's understandable in the case of HRE, but in 1871, industries and colonies were the real backbone of a powerful nation, not some empty imperial brand. Germany could call itself whatever, so why an empire?

Read The Jewish State, Israel was supposed to be a monarchy initially just like the Old Kingdom because Herzl was a conservative reactionary chud.

>>220354151
he may be the founding founder but the zionists took very little from him (he also wanted us to speak german)
>>
>>220353722
After Napoleon cyberhacked the HRE the term lost the roman connotations and came to just mean "we are a big and powerful country", and everyone wanted to be a big and powerful country, so everyone who could get away with it called their country an empire. Its like how dictatorships call themselves "democratic republic" nowadays, because that gets you street cred in international diplomacy and makes your people a little happier

Not with that attitude you'll never be. You have a loser mindset, you need to think like a winner in order to be German.

>To compensate for feelings of inferiority caused by his withered arm, Wilhelm had in the words of Röhl a tendency to engage in "sadistic" behavior such as having the rings on his right hand inwards, squeezing especially hard when shaking hands (as result of having the use of only one arm, Wilhelm had an abnormally strong right arm), and watching with pleasure as the other party grimaced in pain.[55] Other antics of the Kaiser included attacking his guests with his field marshal's baton and making his elderly ministers do a vigorous round of physical exercises, sometimes cutting off their braces first so that they would have trouble keeping their pants up during the exercises.[56] Wilhelm often made his courtiers dance before him and the rest of the court dressed as ballerinas or poodles while blowing kisses to him.[58] Perhaps the most infamous case of "Byzantinism" occurred in 1908 when General Dietrich von Hülsen-Haeseler danced before the Kaiser and the court dressed while wearing a pink ballerina dress, and then felt so humiliated by what he had been forced to do that he promptly died of a heart attack. Others at the court rather enjoyed participating in these homo-erotic spectacles that Wilhelm enjoyed so much. In 1892, the courtier Georg von Hülsen wrote to Count Emil von Schlitz gennant von Görtz that: "You must be paraded by me as a circus poodle!-that will be a 'hit' like nothing else. Just think: behind shaved (tights), in front long bangs out of black or white wool, at the back a genuine poodle tail a marked rectal opening and, when you 'beg', in front a fig-leaf. Just think how wonderful when you bark, howl to music, shoot off a pistol or do other tricks. It is simply splendid!...In my mind's eye I can already see H.M [His Majesty] laughing with us." The Kaiser very much enjoyed seeing Count Görtz dance before him wearing the poodle's costume with the "marked rectal opening".

I have no interest in being ruled by these guys

He was too pure for this world.

Proud that my ancestors served in the German Army during WW1

>>220352350
he finally made his German Empire
>>
>>220352797
The foreign russian monarch was actually German
>>
>>220353151
Empire is the english translation.
If we try being literal, it was the "German Caesar's Realm".

But even the word empire changed meaning many times
>>
>>220352350
I would most likely be run by northerners (prussians) and therefore be a giant shitshow of moralism and LGBTQ.

Reactionary police state with a decadent monarchy/aristocracy with unholy levels of social inequality. No thanks.

In other words "pay more taxes so I can give the money to poor people".

Because it is german.

Based Herzl. I’ve read about his meeting with Wilhelm II in Israel when it belonged to the Ottoman Empire.

>>220352350
Every empire we've been a part of has collapsed and I don't want that for Germany
