So many epic and brutal wars in 17th to 19th century that are forgotten

[Quasar44]

We are talking like 700,000 deaths to up to a few million in each of these wars for power and dominace

Here are a few

30 year war- Last religious war with like 4 million killed or more.

9 year war- Louis 14th tried to expand his empire and it created 700,000 plus deaths . A giant stalemate resulted . Late 1600s. European powers vs. France

War of Spanish Succession- several hundred thousands dead as France tried to incorporate Spain. French dominance is checked and England is the new power. Early 1700s.

War of Austrian Succession- Prussia emerges as a strong country in the 1740s war. 1.4 million killed for Hapsburg succession . No clear winner.

Crimean War- Russia overextended itself and was taken down by European powers. 750,000 dead and was in the 1850s

Naploean Wars- Several million killed. The End of France as a major power and UK is the new super power.

Franco/ Prussia war- Germans shocked the world by obliterating the French and the bad blood would spill into the GREAT WAR . 200,000 killed and was 1870

America was the bullwark between the death of millions and the protection of the world.

The greedy, naive and unpatriotic sold this out for easy money when they allowed Communist China to join the WTO and pillage American businesses and IP. Generating another peer threat when Russia had collapsed.

The people behind that will go down in history, if the details are ever known. From presidents on down.

In the end, China will win and they will rule the world barring MAJOR shifts in the West. This will hopefully occur after my time because the world will become the distopian world so many feared for hundreds of years.

What part of China did you surrender to?

 

[shockedcanadian]

What part of China did you surrender to?

Me? I don't follow, they haven't succeeded...yet....

When they do, it will hopefully be after I am gone and playing a harp somewhere.

The CCP are now 100M members. All of the other citizens are beholden to these 100M members.

Does the West believe that immigration from China is going to be without great peril?

When the surrender occurs, it will be to the CCP. Those 100M will in essence, rule the world. At least for a little while.

What if they make you a drummer?

What if they make you a drummer?

I'd accept that role.

The War of the Triple Alliance, where Paraguay tried to become a great power by attacking Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay in the mid 19th Century resulted in a catastrophe for the Tremendous Nation of Paraguay.

China has had even more brutal wars for centuries. The Taiping Rebellion ran 14 years from 1840 and held the world record until the Second World War.

The Chinese are humans also, and peaceful like the Christians.
