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
Similar cultures
Same race
No they literally lived under russia for like 150 years
made up countries
i k
capital of Russia was Kiev Ukraine
I'm just saying invading like
Poland would be an absolute failure
Poland is the new Germany
Also with Ukraine/Belarus Russia just funds insurgents
It's economy is growing on par and will soon overtake in rates against germany
War is useful, without it we wouldn't be here. We wouldn't have any of this land.
War is necessary to purge the weak
Not taking into account nuclear weapons
You can't attack a nation with nuclear weapons nor a country in a nuclear umbrella
No one would use nukes against a nuclear power
MAD policy
lol u wot
MAD works with land invasions too
oh you mean in a full invasion of the country
Ukraine wasn't in a nuclear umbrella and neither was Iraq/Afghanistan
then just invade everyone else
So yeah you could feasibly invade countries that aren't alligned with a nuclear power
But then those countries are quite worthless
Not necessarily
Non-Nuclear World War 3 would be nice tbh
