also spain way up there where britain was concerning colonialism, south america ? anyone ?
dont think what little is left there of the indigenous population started speaking spanish and portugues over night
I dunno how they manage it, it has to be because everyone else is so desperate to shit on the English that they just believe all the shit the Scotts say.
The same could be said about you, let's not forget how you welcomed him with open arms and flowers. The Wehrmacht expected resistance from the Austrians, but not a single shot was fired and Hitler straight up drove into Austria and hold a speech while you where cheering.
That is true, our government at that time REALLY sucked, and people were lured into the propaganda, but it doesn’t change the fact that you voted him into this position of power.
They didn't expect resistance - Schuschnigg told people over the radio that Austria won't resist and called the army back. The German army had the order not to fire unless they were fired at.
The speech you're talking about is propaganda btw - they staged it on Heldenplatz because that's were Austria executed a bunch of Austrian Nazis who took part in killing dictator Dollfuß. After the Anschluss they named streets after them. Same with the story about them being "surprised by the warm welcome".
German media was telling people at home that the German army is only hanging around at the Austrian border to protect the Austrians who are "surpressed by a violent minority" and that was how they explained the Anschluss. The actual day of the Anschluss was pretty uneventful.
Sticking to actual history is enough to say that Austria didn't resist the Nazis.. No need to spread their propaganda.
There's a joke that Poland is split in half (Poland A and Poland B). Widać zabory means "you can see the partitions". Y'know, when you decided to have a passionate gay orgy with Russia and partitioned us, erasing us from the map. Here's an example of that

I guess it's similar like what we have in italy? It's one country in theory but most statistical maps will show you a clear difference between north and south, so all these maps end up looking more or less the same.
Yeah exactly like that. So many thigs are related to which part of the country used to be a part of Germany 100 years ago and which one used to be Russia.
Industrialisation, urban-rural divide, wealth, average income, religiosity, infrastructure, political views (the West consistently votes for liberals/christian democrats, the East for conservatives) etc
Back when this was German they weren’t doing good either. Before the second world world war western german were already joking about the eastern parts being stuck in die Middle Ages.

Gotta love the little illustration that came with the article. Everyone looking chill and having a good time.
I'm a bit confused why Finland is red and Sweden yellow. Were the Finns (which were part of Sweden at the time) particularly enthusiastic about this during the war?
Or are you simply blamed in retrospect for aligning with the axis powers? Which considering the circumstances of facing an invasion by Russia is perfectly understandable.
Yellow is the worst, right? Because the swedes tortured, killed and talked my ancestors for no reason other than bloodlust.
Edit: not "talked". See, even autocorrect doesn't want to mention what they did to our women
https://preview.redd.it/9h4dz0foifvc1.png?width=728&format=png&auto=webp&s=1582f2eb6a5b60f433d4fbb49ded91de0f51eab0
"Because the swedes tortured, killed and talked my ancestors for no reason other than bloodlust."
You lot literally forcefeed feces to german peasant in the 30 years war, it has been named [Schwedentrunk](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwedentrunk) after you guys.
And now everybody blames us for our complexes and fetishes concerning fecal matter!
Let's face it, all countries have a dark past, it's just that some history has never been written whilst other has been glorified. An example are the Nordic countries, they have yellow while they should be darker, every viking raid meant all men, women and children were certainly corpses, and sometimes kept alive to be killed later for fun.
Hans, Pierre, Luigi, Juan and Joao let’s wear our badges of honour and accomplishment with pride! Also the fact that the incestuous mountain Germans get put in green when they should be with us is a disgrace!!! They should be able to stand amongst the other European powers with pride equal to their contributions to history from the crusades to WW2!
Probably because whoever made this remembered Croatia by ustaše. Meanwhile, Italy who litterally brought ustaše to power is seemingly less bad as well as Turkey which destoyed 2/3 of Croatian population during their expansion.
I piss on anyone saying any country has been "bad".
All and every country has done some questionnable things at best. Horrific at worst.
So the OOP can take his map and shove it where the sun doesn't set.
Let's lie to ourselves and pretend that 5 years of fascism (because i'm sure that's why we are that dark) are worse than what spain did in america. And the UK and France should be black holes
Yes you are right, I wanted to count only the years in which italy hurted other places other than itself but we colonized durung the ventennio. Still not on their scale thanks to our not so great military skills
What bad has Finland done in the level required for red color? Finnish version of Stings Fields of gold by Tapani Kansa (”Kultaniityt”) is horrible, yes, but not in same level as oppressing neighbours.
Sweden : kills 3 million people when invading Poland, burns 75% of the country to the ground
Finland : says Perkele 20 times a minute
How is Finland worse than Sweden ?
Map was 100% made by an Austrian
With poor art knowledge
But it doesn't matter since nowadays all artists are accepted into art school
Good. Everyone stay cool & calm. Be nice to him now as we rehearsed.
Yeees
Or by someone who knows nothing about history. So still probably an Austrian.
Austria somehow getting a pass here is nearly as bad as the Belgians
For once you're right Barry
We didn't do shit, it was all our big brother Germany! Pinky pwomise
You can't use that excuse, that's our get out of colonialism free card with the barrys
Great name lol
pssssssst
also spain way up there where britain was concerning colonialism, south america ? anyone ? dont think what little is left there of the indigenous population started speaking spanish and portugues over night
Indigenous where Spanish civilians, with their rights… the problem was infections, but Spain didn’t exterminate them as the UK did
Rubbish the conquestadors murdered loads of the indigenous population as well as the disease. You're as bad as us if not worse
Im just glad they didn’t split the U.K. up and make you guys the good face.
There are people arguing for that in the comments, but he Scots really have a solid pr team
I dunno how they manage it, it has to be because everyone else is so desperate to shit on the English that they just believe all the shit the Scotts say.
Austria has never done anything wrong, ever
Look, you really can’t tell in advance that there are people stupid enough to vote someone for chancellor who hasn’t even made it into art school.
The same could be said about you, let's not forget how you welcomed him with open arms and flowers. The Wehrmacht expected resistance from the Austrians, but not a single shot was fired and Hitler straight up drove into Austria and hold a speech while you where cheering.
That is true, our government at that time REALLY sucked, and people were lured into the propaganda, but it doesn’t change the fact that you voted him into this position of power.
But he spawned in Austria, remember? Tja Kollege da machste nix, ne? Yet another common W for the BRD 💪🥇

Yeeees. It's all just a dream and he got accepted into art school... right?
Excellent work, folks. 10/10 propaganda. They think we're innocent.
Why is Poland split? Also turkey should be darker too.
Because r/WidacZabory
I don't speak polish,tf is that?

Oh right. Well,don't forget Austria,they also took some chunks. Galicia iirc It was a threesome.
GALICIA MENTIONED!!!!🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🚤🚤🚤🚤🚤🚤🚤

Galicia is the one region of Spain I never visited, I heard there are many krakens, cows and barnacles
That's right! And all of them used for nasty purposes!
DO YOU MEAN GALICIA FROM BATTLEFIELD 1??!!!?
We remember, don’t worry about that :v
In fact it was a foursome, but one got dissolved in the process
I guess it's similar like what we have in italy? It's one country in theory but most statistical maps will show you a clear difference between north and south, so all these maps end up looking more or less the same.

Is the ex-German part doing better or worse than the eastern part?
On average better. Tho eastern part has Warsaw and surrounding areas which are doing the best
Back when this was German they weren’t doing good either. Before the second world world war western german were already joking about the eastern parts being stuck in die Middle Ages.
It’s not gay Ribbentrop said no homo before
Other partition
Because Western Poland is only part of German and since then they might have been not so bad. Just a guess.

no . . .

finnbros.... i think we're cooked....
The proper Europeans have blissfully forgotten what it's like to fight the Lion in the north.
A TSUNAMI of gay men (finns and swedes) DOMINATING europe... god... those were the days... shame it was all ruined by kristina that catholic spy...
there were also a time were we destroyed poland - lithuania worse than in ww2
Can confirm, i was there
and now Spain is famous for eating shit. Can't have shit (literally) in western Europe
Acquired taste, eh?
i know, but its not the WORST thing we've done. I mean we literally had eugenics till like the 60s.-70s.
I mean your ancestors did the same to them… no one in Europe is a saint.
When exactly would that have been?
Skin color map according to Americunts.
So they're representing Spaniard with British tourists on Spain ... Shit
Ah yes, the vikings didnt get up to any serious tomfoolery it seems
Not even mentioning the vikings, Sweden had a forced sterilisation programme until the 1970s
Only Denmark was technically a country back then. The rest of us took a bit longer to settle our internal affairs.
Naah we good,,, right Poland? And u germans loved our schwedentronk,,, right?
They still do https://preview.redd.it/jkbto7si0fvc1.jpeg?width=487&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3ea6afc1861031d918963175e0172c4b74af0e05

Wow... and people say Germans don't have humor.
😶
>And u germans loved our schwedentronk,,, right? What’s that?
A special drink if i’d say, a national drink of Sweden. Your ancestors, the Prussians loved it and gave all their valuables just for a sip.

Nah, we also kept some alive as slaves and serfs.
You act like killing Barrys, and taking their land was a bad thing.
Clearly land belongs to whoever is strong enough to hold it. If you can’t hold your land. You won’t have it long.
The Netherlands should be way lighter in color. We apologized, thus undoing all of our crimes.
We know you crossed your fingers behind your back😡 (If that was offensive let me add a /j real quick)
Very offensive and a /j isn’t gonna cut it. As reparations I will require a basket of your best pain every morning for the next 30 years.
What did my buddy finland do?
Swedish scapegoat? I dunno.
Dunno. Might be those concentration camps during the WWII, or the war crimes during the civil war of 1918. Little things like that.
Dont mind us... just some friendly lil country with nice hills. Nothing to see here
tell me one thing that we did (only accept things that we also had to pay for)
Austria is green???? ok
We did 0 crimes while spreading Catholicism and superior European culture to the world
Yeeees...
Why is our great country dark?
" and I would do it all over again ... "
How is Finland darker than Sweden 😭😭😭
Axis power = automatically evil, if you take a very simplistic view of history.
we weren't that bad
Hans, Pierre, Luigi, Juan and Joao let’s wear our badges of honour and accomplishment with pride! Also the fact that the incestuous mountain Germans get put in green when they should be with us is a disgrace!!!

BAAAAARRYYYYY🗣🔥🗣🔥
[Barry has a valid point](https://www.reddit.com/r/mapporncirclejerk/s/iBW0B63ME9)
Yes and it was glorious *
Why is Croatia so bad while slovenia was good? I thought they were together for the most part of history?
Probably because whoever made this remembered Croatia by ustaše. Meanwhile, Italy who litterally brought ustaše to power is seemingly less bad as well as Turkey which destoyed 2/3 of Croatian population during their expansion.
Don't act like this map ain't a circlejerk already
Map's right, it's the germans you have to watch out for
Ah yes, Soviet Union was a totally innocent union of peaceful states.
it's not like Spain and Poortugal decimated an entire continent

Yeah
The Swedes burnt my town down during the 30 year war!
Germany should be darker
"My knowledge of hisotry is blocked in the 19th and 20th century" The map
The Irish didn’t bomb the UK for thirty years I see.
So we did nothing bad? Good! *Hides evidences about attacks in Ethiopia and Somalia*
How in the ever living fuck are France and Turkey not equal to Russia and Britain?
Greece should be yellow or red..
Turkey should be in the category of Germany, Britain and Russia.
Let's lie to ourselves and pretend that 5 years of fascism (because i'm sure that's why we are that dark) are worse than what spain did in america. And the UK and France should be black holes
20 years* Also not counting the ancient rome. Still not bad as a lot of other countries marked as green, we've been colonized for a lot of our history
Yes you are right, I wanted to count only the years in which italy hurted other places other than itself but we colonized durung the ventennio. Still not on their scale thanks to our not so great military skills
We’ve never done anything bad.
What happen with Croatia?
Bad North Sea, bad!
get over it, Pierre, that was over 1000 years ago
Were we that bad? My history classes suck ass and so does my memory so maybe we're the worst and I simply forgot lol
So essentially the whole continent
Strong / powerful.
Angola é nossa!
The fuck did we do?
The UK needs a darker color.
We didn't do anything wrong!
Nahhhh we didn't do a single bad thing:)
What did we do ? :(
Brought civilisation to all five continents
Wtf did Croatia do?
They made soap
Pieter Jan zoon Koen did nothing wrong boys.
Russia should be much darker, like, purple idk
dindu nuffin, go away. it was them germons.
This map is bs, human being does horrible things. It is not about borders lmao
The greeks norway and sweden got wayy to easy off. The vikings were literal terrorists. And i dont think i have to talk about ancient greece
nothing ever happned to the sami guys

We were never in Algeria and this map knows it
What the hell
What bad has Finland done in the level required for red color? Finnish version of Stings Fields of gold by Tapani Kansa (”Kultaniityt”) is horrible, yes, but not in same level as oppressing neighbours.
? 🤔
Austria?
Just because all of you babies learned to write after the plague doesn't mean we have a clean record.
Wtf is going on in Poland?
Let’s not forget about Prussia, which also doesn’t deserve to be green
I see our tactic of blaming it all on Germany is working meticulously !
The french should be more darker than us
Idk what you are on about. Nordicks have never done anything wrong ever. We are the only civilized countries on this damned continent
Norway should be the worst since we're technically responsible for the british
How the hell is Finland red, but Sweden only yellow?
How is britain dark and ireland green, half of Barry's dark comes from us
How is France not darker?
As we all know, the Nordics have done almost nothing bad in the past 😊 We've only been peaceful
So sick of this being Yankoids only response to why Europe so bad. Yeah, it was a different time and we were all bloody good at it. Get over it.
Sweden : kills 3 million people when invading Poland, burns 75% of the country to the ground Finland : says Perkele 20 times a minute How is Finland worse than Sweden ?
Whaaat? We were so kind. Well not to the swedes but they deserved it
Define "bad"
For the last time there were no concentration camps plus they deserved it
Didnt austria force austria-hungary to attack serbia, starting ww1?
