Our world conquering ancestors used most conflicts as training exercises for the final Big Ones .

Thrashing the Germs not once but twice .
They claimed common blood but we saw that they were just common .

With Ze ( Big) Bra and Bangabangabang as living proof .

Hard to say. Both sides of my family were 19th or early 20 century Irish Ellis Island immigrants. Maybe their ancestors fought against the British empire before the American Revolution.
