    Lots of Eastern Europeans will strongly disagree The Soviets took over the occupation from Germany of loads of states which lastet until the 1990s and some are still fighting Russia in a hot war today

      Which country is more peaceful I wonder
      Three big mitigating factors:
      Germany were bound by the peace treaty at the end of WW2 as well.
      There's a lot of "wars" in the late 40s and 50s that were simply the disintegration of the British Empire.
      The Troubles started in 1922 and will not end until there's a united Ireland but that's a given.

      We're in a relative time of peace. Enjoy it while it lasts.

        did any of ours involve rounding up millions of innocent people and killing them in Gas chambers?

        thought not.

            hmm its always so, most nations won't go to war until there is a direct threat to them.

            The reality is that without their forces we would be speaking German now.

            The French sold the Argentinians Exocet missiles yet they were our allies an fellow members of the EU.

              actually their 'citizens' have killed 10 times as many as the government did:

              I suppose we should have just rounded them up and exterminated them?

                Yalta initiated the era of Soviet domination of Eastern Europe, which lasted until the end of the Cold War and left bitter memories of Western betrayal and Soviet dominance in the collective memory of the region
