Russian royalty is hidden behind a world that is painted in a sunny democratic federacy which hides it's body within a civil violent degree. they have no diplomatic duty and see those who have values as detrimental.

A point on the hugarian position on Serbia: A prerequisite demanded by the hungarian parliment to allow a declaration of war was that no Serbian land would be annexed

They did not! The war started when a Serbian kiiled the arch duke of Austria.

You were correct about the blank cheque, but I think it goes a little deeper than that. The background goes to the time after Germany defeated France in 1871 and the German Empire was founded. German Chancellor Bismarck had build up non - agression pacts with European countries to prevent more wars in the future. The German Kaiser Wilhelm was young and inexperienced in foreign policies and wanted to have control over that. A feud with his chancellor resulted in dismissal of the chancellor and the Kaiser took over foreign policy. He disbanded all of Bismarcks non-aggression alliances and issued the "blank cheque to Austrian Emperor. That resulted in WWI with all its misconceptions and tragedies!

Unlike the Romanovs in Russia and the Hohenzollern in Germany the Hapsburgs were very progressive and liberal in their rulership more similar to the British crown, the reality is the monarchy would have probably survived if WW1 didn't happen

The British will never get over this man - and I say that as someone with British ancestry. Napoleon broke their brain. They know that, had it not been for that narrow neck of water that separates them from France, Napoleon would have had them by the throat. The visceral hatred that the knowledge of their inferiority to him provokes is the reason they can say with a straight face that HE was a war-mongerer for defending France against foreign enemies on all sides that vowed to snuff out her peoples’ act of self-determination. They, on the other hands, were angels of peace who were forced to take up arms against a country that was showing an unusual amount of pluck in the face of foreign aggression.

Merry Christmas Old Britannia! I hope you are doing well. I was hoping we would recieve a new video from you on Christmas day as a general present for all the subscribers of the channel, but I guess whatever you're currently working on is of such high quality that it is going to take a while. You're channel is one of the best and most informative historical sources I have discovered so far on KZbin, in terms of nuance and critical analysis of various personalities and events ranging from periods such as: Napoleonic Wars, American Revolution, Seven Years War, WW1, WW2 and post-Napoleonic 19th century Europe. Keep up the excellent work!

Actually it was France that started the war not Germany. Germany was merely defending itself in the First World War. It’s unfortunate America joined the wrong side because the 2nd world war would most definitely have been avoided if america had backed Germany in the first.

Germany defendly were in the wrong in the Great War, there ruthless pillaging of Belgium is a particularly brutal crime by the Germans, and don’t forget how gave a black check without any regard for peace. Germany wasn’t in the European business for peace.

In the laye '70's there was a boardgame of 'Diplomacy'. We played a move each lunchtime. It was very engrossing and sits well within the context of this splendid presentation. I wonder if it's still around today?

@@milanaleksic7678 lol weeks, and it took over from development. folks had a map in their desk draw and pondered it more than the system we were supposed to be building. This little thug threatened me aforehand saying he knew how to play the game and to keep out of the Adriatic. So my first move was Army to Trieste and took his naval base. He was well pissed. Trouble is that infected the whole game and in the end I had to beg Turkey to back me and attack the critter .. which went down splendidly. I think the chap took sick leave, such was the import and effect of 'the game'. The negotiations with Turkey took place over many beers one night. I was stunned by the ferocity of the attack. It sure made me smile. War is War :-)
