Ukraine/Belarus aren't real countries
Russia literally takes a part of ukraine and no one does anything
If you have the factories and they dont recognize you have factories they are just blind
factories aren't useful
Ukraine is rightfully part of Russia
or not as useful as you think
factories aren't useful
Wars being prosperity and wealth long term
To the winning side
Weapons manufacturing factories are quite good in my opinion.
Prussia won lots of wars
now it doesn't exist
The thousands of wars that happen in europe is a reason Europe is as advanced as it is now
Prussia exists via Germany
you lose one and they carve you up permanently
no
Prussia *is* germany
Prussia literally doesn't exist
it's owned by poland
It's a direct ancestor of germany
Prussia was german in identity
opposite
Prussia created the german identity
fact is though, you lose one war and your country is finished
look at Ottomans or Austro-Hungarians
It lives on in different forms
Turkey is the ottoman empire
It's literally directly from it
It was literally just renamed after the Greater Ottoman Empire collapsed
Sure, war can collapse nations or rise them.
But long term, for everyone, it is a net positive action.
Depends if you've reached critical mass
China has done fine with no war since Korea
The Ottomans/austro-hungarians reached critical mass of having their base ethnic groups outnumbered by the dissident ones
By having economic policies akeen to war-time policies
Russia taking Belarus or ukraine is different because it's a small %
so they can actually hold it
Also large % of Belarusians/Ukrainians are loyal to Russia
