Ah, yes, the German question XD.
Bro had to go for the low hanging fruit 😂💀
Joseph Stalin is that you?
@@jwil4286No it’s Emperor Augustus.
I find it funny how Germany is still Number 1 in Europe right now after WW1 after WW2
I think you’re forgetting the context of Germany
Look up the old borders of Europe , when the HRE was dissolved by Napoleon. The entire centre of Europe united is always going to be powerful, and it basically exists because of France and Russia (mostly France) being on either side. Similar to the context of Japan, they basically can’t go wrong … unless we’re talking about world wars
True
Marshall Plan and a high population
There were times when it was overtaken by the UK, France, and Russia, aka Soviets.
But generally it has gotten the number one place back.
Soem economists predict it will lose first place to France or the Uk
@@swagathshetty Marshall Plan was for the benefit of the dollar, it did not change the economic outcome for Germany
The USA was suffering an imbalance in which too many dollars were leaving the country but not enough was being received. Essentially, the Marshall Plan enabled European countries to pay in US dollar rather than all of the different currencies
An Austrian painter with a funny mustache would love this question
An Austrian painter with straight brown hair and deep blue eyes wouldn't be happy cuz this is not even question this is fact.

It's always great when a non European gives funny unbiased reviews of the Europeans. Well done!
If there is more video about the irony of "diversity" in western pop culture can solved the bias of the world, well idk if they think black samurai can represent Japan
Do Poles really study, while the ghost of a Winged Hussar yells at them to encourage them?
Yes just yes some of us have Marie Curie some of us have our first president but it's mostly the wings of ours of our ancestors who ate turkey
As a Pole, I can agree, I always think about the first commonwealth when sit to study

Heinrich Himmler was obsessed with religion and German pre-history. So much that one of his pet project involved archaeological digs throughout Germany. Hitler hated them because they disproved the Aryan narrative he was trying to form.
"Why do we call the whole world's attention to the fact that we have no past? It's bad enough that the Romans were erecting great buildings when our forefathers were still living in mud huts; now Himmler is starting to dig up these villages of mud huts and enthusing over every potsherd and stone ax he finds. All we prove by that is that we were still throwing stone hatchets and crouching around open fires when Greece and Rome had already reached the highest stage of culture. We really should do our best to keep quiet about this past. Instead Himmler makes a great fuss about it all. The present-day Romans must be having a laugh at these revelations."
It was a well known fact that Hitler was a moron. Who is he to arbitrate what is considered the “highest stage of culture”? He belittles the own ancient history of the German people while also leading them to a dark and fascist path. He really was the worst of the worst leaders and nobody should take him seriously.
This always sounded unbelievable to me because it makes Hitler sound too… aware. Its kind of disturbing to think about
At the end of the day he was only a human with flaws and all, just like the rest of us.
@@moelester925 Yes, but we should learn from our humanities mystakes.
I remember hearing that quote in time ghosts war against humanity series
3:57 as a Pole i can confirm that i feel like this every day...
Yes if you want to catch up with us you really have to work hard! Then maybe one day your children will also be able to live a wealthy life and chill at the beach every day. Do it for your children! Just like my ancestors worked hard for me :)
@@corne1717Poland has the lowest birth rate.
@@corne1717 Year 2100 17 mil Poles by stats. Assuming there will be no ww3 earlier, i think Poland is going slowly into the abbys, right where it belongs after what our „elites” and our todays „friends” from eu did to us in 39. This part from vid with our pm is also funny, video in this part is about prosperity and progress while this german spy cancelling all the biggest investments in our country (started by the previous party) in favor of Germany.Also i don’t think eu elites will ever allow Poland to be something bigger than it is now. Sori for bad englant

@@corne1717 You're saying that like you yourself have worked hard enough to deserve everything you have
This question always seemed strange to me. Germanic peoples have only been on top for the past couple of centuries (a big part of which was due to colonialism which is now mostly gone) and this power is already quickly fading. Whereas for far longer in the past the most successful places were in the Mediterranean, Middle east, Indian subcontinent, Sinosphere, etcetera. This fact alone should be enough to debunk racial superiority myths.
Don't tell this to the Euro centrics lol, they refuse to listen to reason
There is a steange tendency to only consider history from 1700s onwards
@@twicethegalo Because Germanic people feel uncomfortable with pre-1700 history.
You ignore Mesoamerica (North America) and the Andes in South America, which were cultural, economic, population, political, etc. centers. Of the Americas.
Wtf where is there Power fading nobody comes close to them and india and China are shitholes that have only on quality and that is quantity
I bet RUclips is going to love that thumbnail and title haha.
4:40 I'm gonna start learning Hindi -because Indian nerds are everywhere-
😂😂😂
Nobody expects the Protestant reformation!
Someone asked that very same question in the 1930s and 1940s
Didn't end well 😂
Germanic countries such as US, UK, Australia...played a big role for Allied victory in WWII.
If you ignore history pre 1700 then I guess so.
Where is Belgium in the thumbnail ? Most Belgians are Flemish so germanics
Found it as a Dutch person pretty weird too Belgium is mostly just Germanic besides there French speakers :p
@@rubentreingames6466belgium has circa 6 million flemish and 4 million french
At 3:19 it is displayed as a tier two romance country. This is so wrong. They should add a Flemish country ball
Belgium has always been funny and it will continue to be funny forever. 😂
This is a strange direction this channel is following
Yeah i was kind of a bit startled. It’s sensible still but some themes are starting to show that give off the faint alarm of yellow flags. Perhaps it’s just paranoia? The Poland tangent seemed a bit, racially based in argument of “perceived superiority”. Don’t like where that was going but i get the point.
Yea, very strange.
I just hope if this channel doesn't have any political agendas as WhatIfAltHist or Kraut or Fredda guys
As an Englishman, I love my Germanic heritage... as we are Anglo-Saxon, England has influenced the world so deeply
Even Austrian painter also admired you.
@@user-id3br6xx5e yeah
You are living my dream. I wish i was an Englishman or at least a Germanic person
@@user1129-wl8hg English is an ethnicity, but for me, also a unifying identity. Because of the sheer Anglophobia on the MSM, anyone who supports England and the English, can say they are an Englishman. This is what our Father, Alfred the Great, wanted when we defeated the Vikings
@@Angelcynn_2001 thank you for your words❤ but the truth is i still not lol🥲
One could say the French are Latinized Germans (Franks who adapted Latin which over time became French)
no, the french are germanized gauls. united by a frankish elite
Most french are Celto-Romans so no
They are Latinized Celts
Most French people are Gallo-Roman so nope. This isn’t eu4 where you automatically change cultures 😂.
As an Asian dude. We might not have light skin but we do have light stare 🤨
Race and culture are two different things.
Czechs and slovenes are richer stable and industrous like the germanic counterparts compared to pther east European countries due to the longest period of austrian rule . Even their food is more similiar to theirs
When I think of famous European countries and thier culture, its always Italy, France, Greece, am Spain
Before: We are better than you all
After: I know where Europe is! Is in America!
Yeah
Me, a Pole watching this to procrastinate learning for my exam: I feel called out
poland ball community try not to be racist challenge
The Germany policy towards nuclear power shows they aren't soo superior
It might also have to do with fighting wars. For all the bad wars do they do encourage the nation fighting it to work harder to unify its people, and be innovative. Also if your nation is used to fighting wars all the time then when you roll up on a nation that doesn’t it’s easy to just walk all over them. A good example of this outside of the west is Japan. Japan became a colonial power almost immediately after it quit self isolating, meanwhile almost every other nation that was exposed to the European system couldn’t even protect itself much less learn from the Europeans and start incorporating their model of operating.
The problem with this is when several nations that are used to fighting wars and are very efficient at fighting them end up fighting each other down to the point of completely spending their economy and manpower.
This is false.
@@Galletas-my3sv ahh come on m8, give me a counter argument at least. If nothing else wars are either a consequence of a nation being powerful or they are a contributing factor.
Note that Korea, Taiwan, and South Sakhalin were legally parts of the Empire of Japan; not colonies. Just like Algeria was part of France.
Interestingly not his most controversial video title (see: "How to become a dominant race").
Its getting more political and racist everyday
So glad you mentioned tokkies. I feel honored❤❤
Only a Dutch person would know that though🤔
Yeah, I was surprised, it's tokkie used outside of the Netherlands??
Countries like Japan finland estonina and sweden are organized in an extemely reserved and introverted way .

Least racist countryball video:
As Indian mhm, Yes Germanics are superior in almost everything from Development Levels to Military and Attractive People but atlast No as the food is really bland and tasteless. I'll prefer remaining hungry over eating Beans & Toast 🤪
put your poo in the loo and stop scamming old people, Rajesh
Indian girls are better than Germanic girls. German girls are taller than the average man globally
Indian foods have few taste, mostly just curry taste, so it becomes boring fast. I prefer German food which preserves well distinct tastes of the ingredients.

Fun fact Ireland and Israel are dominated by Germanic speaking peoples. The ashkenazi Jews are German speakers since Yiddish is a Germanic language. And Ireland speaks English with the mostly Gaelic areas declining in output to such a degree the language is actively dying off.
No, because before the Protestant Reformation and the new ideas of democracy, the Germanic peoples were still behind, and during those times, the Indians/Arabs/Ottomans were prevailing.
It just happens to be that in our time, the Germanic nations are at their high point in history, but they weren’t always like this.
I like the channel...it's educational and sometimes funny, however can you change the voice?
0:49 what he meant by this
Who would win, every Germanic country working together, or Israel?
If it was not by italian, german and specially japanese immigration, Brazil would be way worse and poorer than it is now.
Immigration can be freaking good if you know what you are doing
what
The Japanese just stayed in their own bubble and Italians were seen as nothing more than cheap labour not sure about the Germans either it doesn’t matter the only reason Brazil is soo poor is Because of corruption made by their political instability
Tu esqueceu que houve mais imigrantes portugueses do que italianos durante o século XX? como você cita os italianos, mas não os tugas?
I think some Austrian guy asked this question once?
great, as always.

@@GwainSagaFanChannelLuckily Czech is rich... oh wait... it isn't.

it's like calling them viking bloods in their vein, which is not making you less racist than them
Yet they somehow have the most peaceful societies on earth and have improved the state of morality and sensitivity to justice world over… While the absolutely brutal customs and events of Non-European cultures goes almost entirely undiscussed. Try harder, little one.

That "poverty cycle" pic is hilarious. The black dude gets poor grades because he doesn't have enough time to study hard? LOL!
Why is the US Germanic? It's mixed. And UK is half Celtic. That means its former colonies are also half Celtic.
The us in its essence is a Germanic country shaped by the culture of the early settlers who were of nordic descent like the dutch the english and the germans
And the uk is just an English colonial project the English are the hegemonic element they are the man in that union the English consciously or subconsciously dont see Celtics as their equals and the English won't respect you unless you force them to and that's why there is not dragon on the union jack
Short Answer: Yes
Long Answer: Yes, but not because of race
Long answer: History
Short answer: No.
They are the source - in all ways, shape amd toughts - of the majority of every single problem on the globe. From Rome, to London, to D.C., and than to Berlin.

4:22 Japan is in definitely in a better (a.k.a. Safer) situation on the right. Definitely don't want to be like Sweden or Lebanon.

Germany and the UK are great powers, not superpowers.
It’s over😔
3:09 Yep. This is accurate. RIP "Germanic" South Africa and Rhodesia.
Cold weather allowed people to stay in and think about stuff like science and the arts. Plus access to rivers which allowed them to trade and ability to access coal (especially britain) which developed a protestant individualistic society which allowed things like egalitarianism and things belonging to this group of people etc. things like family group type (being mostly wheat eating society) unlike societies like rice allowed for massive large estates for individual farmers developed competition 🤓
So short answer, geography not that they’re inherently superior just geography.
still doesn't explain why civilization in Europe developed in so-called 'hot countries', of Greece and Italy
@@AlexHouxley trade with outsiders
@@AlexHouxley Italy and greece is pretty cold and has access to trading from ports not even that hot. Pretty cold I mean like 0c in the winter or 20-35f
Unless you live in China where it's the inverse. The wheat growing north is poorer that the rice farming south.
Here before it gets taking down
The Netherlands and Nordics for sure aren't il say as much
Also this some argentinian political RUclipsr ahhh question
3:55 Why waiting? Just ask our friendly democratic friends from Germany for reparations and we’re good.
romance/latin countries>>>>>>
Not letting anyone in might be a good idea tho, it basically creates an internal pressure to create a perfect storm/crisis, and only with a crisis you will have a window of opportunity to fix/change what is wrong with your society.
I think, in my opinion, the East Asian countries should keep the closed door policies, while doing the best they could to restructure their societies or reprioritize from economic growth to social growth. This is a golden opportunity for them to figure a way to balance their economic and social needs
A more acceptable alternative is: Let people in, but the immigrants must strictly conform to the country's culture and policies. Otherwise, goodbye.
Can you also make:
- Why Hungary and Romania hate each other?
- Why Greece and Albania love/hate each other?
- Why Spain and England/Britain hate each other?
- Why Russia and Turkey hate each other?
- Why Louxemburg exist?
- Why Andorra exist?
- Why Monaco exist?
- Who are the BalticCountries?
- Why are Germany and the Netherlands not together?
- Why are Cannada and USA not together?
- How did Japan become powerful?

The USA isn’t a “germanic” country. It’s just europeans that came from Europe that identified themselves as Americans. An American could be italian, Irish, whatever.
Seriously?
Technically Britain is majority Celtic and only a bit Germanic.
But Britain is by far the most superior country in the world invented 40%+ of inventions.
Yeah well the current population is definitely doing its best to ruin that status quo
Current Britain is more urdu and hindi than germanic
Irish people in Republic of Ireland are more English than Irish. I went to Ireland to speak Irish to them, they didn't understand
Yeah that's true
Majority Celtic, only a bit Germanic? Is this a joke or something? There were Anglo-Saxon and Viking immigrations with considerable population input. You can safely say that English people in general have some French ancestry too, thanks to William the Conqueror.
Canadaball is so cute!
If you are a german who don't lives in a germanic country (like me,i am a german who lives in france) i hope you are just as confused as i am right now ! 🤣
