the whole young serb/black hand lot were

Didn't think that shit through

yeah

Same stock as a lot of young, idealistic and stupid men tbh

I do know the build up to WW1, and it's just sad

some final destination shit right there

The centennial of the end of the war was this week

the build up is absolutely incredible

you literally couldn't write some of the shit that happens

like a slow burning fuse that no one put out

nah

like a fuse that everyone tries to put out with their feet but slips on a banana peel every time 😂

the whole thing ramps up in about the space of a month

It's the saddest comedy of errors

not even errors

like they're literally about to sign a 'WE ARE NOT GOING TO WAR' agreement between the austrians and the russians, the austrian guy goes over to the russians house, and then dies of a heart attack before he signed the fucking thing

that very evening

it's like

holy fucking shit

@Potato Man the russians invading didn’t help

@CheekyOGNutZach this is before even that

god really wanted to see a big war

Invading then getting absolutely smacked back

that agreement was to agree no mobilisation

Bismarck and the Tsar were closely related

cousins aye

apparently they telegrammed

They spent a lot of time trying to end the war personally but sadly the machine had already been set in motion

@Millihex wait no not bismarck

Wilhelm!

The 2nd

Also doesn’t help germany were stockpiling weapons

nigga you been watchin some Extra history shit

Too much of a lazy cunt to actually pick up a long book
