History in a nutshell with Belgian Gentleman - lesson 1

"If war happens it's always the north that wins upon the south"

This symbolism is everywhere. From the American civil war, Korean war, Vietnam war and even to European colonialism.

lesson 2

" The sun never sets on the British Empire."

Poor Argentina can't deal with this one.

lesson 3

" Mongols are the exceptions. "

Nobody defeats Russia in the winter unless.. wait for it ... you're the Mongols.

lesson 4

" Scotland is unimportant. "

..and has always been

lesson 5

" Nobody really cares about Africa "

What genocide ? What's that? 50 million died? Oh ? It happened in Africa? Then it isn't important enough.


.. lessons to be continued tomorrow.

Oh these I like. *Claps enthusiastically*

More! Bring more!

" Nobody really cares about Africa "

Not entirely true, everyone cares about Africa... the only "unimportant thing" in Africa are the people.

Bravo, sir! I want more.

All good, other than the fact that the Korean war was a stalemate, with South Korea making more territorial gains, and that Scotland is far more important than Belgium.

Korean war

North Korea GDP per Capita - 1,800
South Korea GDP per Capita - 25,976

But supreme leader told me..

"If war happens it's always the north that wins upon the south"

Battle of Hastings 1066 - The Normands (Northern France) defeated the Saxs (British islands) and invaded their entire land.
South beat North!
Myth busted!

no that was west vs east. Your argument is wrong.

1337 - 1453 100 Years War.
Victory of France over England.

100 years war

Victory of Flanders over France. Result: County of Flanders is not subjected to the French crown anymore.

Belgium has better chocolate. My heart, and my money, follow my stomach

Belgian Chocolate cant beat Austrian chocolate!

Well if it makes you feel better Cata, Swiss chocolate beat both Austrian and Belgian chocolate. Bow to my European counter parts the Swiss!

^

Technically the battle of Hastings was not a skilful victory by the Normans, as they almost lost the battle. On top of that Harlod and his army had just fought the Vikings in Yorkshire and defeated them. Unlucky from Harlod and his men.

" The sun never sets on the British Empire."

I was thinking about this the other day; The Sun never sets on the British Empire instead the Empire set on the sun.

^LOL


How about wars between east and west...I don't think that's as clear cut.

The Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth did defeat Russia in the winter

The north always beat the south, hm?

This couldn't possibly mean...

!!!

NORTH!

YES!!
IT'S TIME FOR THE INVASION!



(Borders are accurate. Even if they aren't, the people living in the places would rather live in Scotland than where they currently live)
