just for different reasons
if the Allies put the massive reparations shit on them'
A war between the USSR and Germany would still be WW2 for all intents and purposes
There should have been no punishment on Germany at all
there SHOULD have been
but France was a little bitch
They should have just acknowledged that the war was stupid and they both made mistakes and that is it
No punishment to either side
Well leaving Germany in a strong position would have led to another war
No it wouldn't have
Remember the war began because Austria wanted to invade Serbia
and its unreasonable eg for the French not to expect Alsace Lorraine after the huge effort of the war
My point is that the war shouldn't have happened in the first place
It was a stupid war over nothing
nah WW1 was as a result of the tensions inherent in Europe at the time and wouldve happened anyway
But yeah Britain shouldve stayed out of it
No it wouldn't have
Otto Von Bismarck worked very hard ensuring the power balance prevented any wars
Yeah, the assassination was merely the breaking-point
The Kaiser ruined that by involving Germany in a war that didn't involve them at all
The conflict could have been completely avoided
Austria could just invade Serbia and win, Then they would just leave after since they had no plans for annexation, Conflict over
And you don't need a World War
wait, but that was the reason the war happend
You're forgetting Russia's alliance with Serbia
^
^
Russia wouldn't have intervened with pressure from the Kaiser
you mean the pressure of going to war?
🤷♂️
They were childhood friends in the firstplace, The Tsar was on the verge of backing out real life
sure but they still fought
If the Kaiser simply encouraged him to stay out of it i think he would have listened
Especially if Germany was staying out of it too
The alliance wouldn't have made much of a difference given that Serbia would remain independent after the war
Because Austria had been forced by Hungary to not annex Serbia
So the alliance could just continue after
hmm, idk, dont think it was that simple then, but whatever, shit happend. Nothing we can do anything about now anymore
