Realistically speaking, would humanity have could humanity have conquered interstellar travel by now, if they were left alone?

Why would an Indian care? You do realize Germans took the name "Aryan" from you and applied it to an artificial concept it was never originally attached to?

Of course, we'd be travelling through time by now but at least England got to throw bombs on civilians

I care about overall human progress. The Aryan thing wouldn't have become as prominent if Germany didn't fuck itself up in WW1.

the few selected humans might indeed have achieved progress but the masses would be even worse than now

The German Empire was a semi feudal country to the level unseen in western Europe by the end of 19th century.

You said yourself that your average German student has no idea that Germany ever owned land east of the Oder. If that's the level of knowledge about German history in Germany then pretty much every Pole can call himself an expert on German history, as here it is a basic fact we learn at school.

Skłodowska had to study in Paris specifically because the Prussian partition of Poland didn't allow foids in universities. Prustards were anti-soyence knuckledragging cretins.

>In Prussian-controlled areas, serfdom was abolished through the Stein–Hardenberg reforms between 1807 and 1816. In Austrian Galicia, it was abolished in 1848 amid the Revolutions of 1848.[7] In the Russian-controlled Congress Poland, serfdom was finally abolished in 1864 following the January Uprising.[8]

just because serfdom was formally abolished didn't change anything same like abolition of slavery in America didn't magically turn the country into an egalitarian paradise. Germany, especially Prussia (the chuds worship the most), continued the feudal relationship just disguised in a capitalism form. Yes, the peasant was formally free but to survive he still had to work in the landowner's farm to earn money to buy food from the landowner, the same food he produced (and he was given from the landowner before abolition of serfdom). Unlike many other countries, Germany's abolition of serfdom didn't entail a land reform and distribution of land from landowners to peasants, the junkers saved their huge estates as they were the source of their political and economic power (which eventually led German Empire to collapse).
>>
>>224505332
No it was a constitutional monarchy. You are spreading misinformation.
>Junker
Were simply petty nobles who owned large estates and historically were often officials for the state and military of the Kingdom of Prussia. After the formation of the German Empire (and even before that in the 1840s) the Junker class were successively curtailed in their formerly feudal rights until they were nearly nonexistend in 1872. The only remnant being that some Junker had a direct and unelected seat within the various district councils.
>>
>>224505606
btw, after regaining independence Poland did a partial land reform but it faced immense pressure from Germany as they considered it "an attack against Germanness in Poland". And it wasn't only a case in Poland, Germany reacted furiously to every case of such land reform in every other country with German gentry, like Baltic states, Yugoslavia etc. Yes, the post-WW1 "republican" German government defended the leftovers of junkers and their estates, yet chuds still believe Germans were progressive.

>>224505817
We had great universities which produced minds like Copernicus when Prussians still lived in the huts on the swamps around the village of Berlin. And that's why our enemies were especially focused on destroying education here and wiping out the intelligentsia throughout all the 19th and 20th centuries.

>Unlike many other countries, Germany's abolition of serfdom didn't entail a land reform and distribution of land from landowners to peasants
The German Empire consisted of many states but let's only focus on Prussia:
1) already in 1718 the "domain-peasants" (those who worked the land directly owned by the crown) were freed of their serfdom and became free farmers who simply didn't own the land they worked. This was changed in 1777, when those free farmers were granted the right to bequeath those land plots to their children, thus eliminating the need for the crown to formally retract and again bestow those plots
2) in 1807 the privilege of bequeath the plots of worked land were granted to those peasants who worked on non-domain lands. In addition corvee services were abolished and the freedom of occupational choice and movement were granted
3) in 1811 every farmer became the direct private owner of the plots of land they worked. But as they had to compensate the previous owner of those lands, many traded parts of their plots of lands away. Thus they were free farmers, who worked their own land and to finance themselves further also worked contractually on the land of the rural nobility.
In practice this disadvantaged those farmers who worked on smaller plots of land, which were thus less profitable. This caused a migration of fromer rural workers into the cities or unto the lands of the rural nobility to work there as contracted workers - at the end of a day a very similar situation to the Inclosure Acts of England, which also saw the migration of rural populations into the cities and the rise of gentry with vast landholdings.

Not Bismarck. This statement is an invention of an austrian satire newspaper from late 1870.

>>224508530
We don't care about the British Empire. Wilson destroyed Europe and gave way the Panslavic horrors that caused the death of 60 million Europeans, totalitarian dictatorships and economic decline. Meanwhile Imperial Germany was the peak of human development where even a Jew or a Pole could rise through the ranks.

No, we would be slower on that worldwide. Without the exact sequence of Nazi rockets and the Cold War, there's no reason to speed up above-orbit research. It would be a niche weather thing at best.

It wasn't by 1850, Germany was industrialized as fuck... Btw major parts of migrants to Brazil was from such areas that farms was buy by state or private business and many fled to US and Brazil searching new agrarian lands
>>
>>224509990
They was a society in transition, like Bluemenau was a city both agrarian but with some small textile industry bring by such krauts
>>
>>224509990
>Germany was industrialized as fuck
if it was so industrialized then Germans wouldn't have needed to emigrate to Brazil en masse as farmers, since they could find employment in German cities - but they couldn't
>>
>>224510542
Kek, periods of transition economic, exist Chuds ala fugere urbem, that migrants because think old Germany die, millions must leave
>>
>>224510542
They emigrated because the work in factories was so often badly paid and because there wasn't enough agricultural land to go around. Especially in the early 19th century many left Germany to become farmers in the new world (often for free as the USA and other states just gave plots of land away). And around a fith of the german immigrants came back in 1860s.
