Why have Germans been so arrogant in the last 200 years or so? Their land had a lot of iron and coal and industrial resources which allowed them to build lots of weapons to get killed and kill others, this doesn't mean anything special to their value. They destroyed civilization and wiped out classical philosophy and claim to be epic virteous warriors. The mongols, magyars, avars and huns sent them to flight and terror fearing for them to destroy them. They have no intellectual contributions to humanity until the late 1600s or early 1800s nearly 1,400 years after they razed Italian civilization to the ground and felt accomplished as if the mongols or turks could not do the same to them or to the other. Not a single mathematician or scientist comes from Germany until the 1700s or 1800s.
Be humble, you aren't special and are far from special.
Your religion comes from the middle east, your alphabet comes from italy, your architecture comes from italy, your art comes from italy.
The irony of Americans with their main character syndrome telling this.
Germany best big country

>The irony of Americans with their main character syndrome telling this. If I could tell other Americans to think they weren't anything special nor any better than anyone else I would.

I unironically wish your post was true but it isn't. Germany was already a leading cultural force in the middle ages, having lots of universities, inventing printing machine, protestantism and cottage cheese

>inventing printing machine This is in the late 1500s, nearly a thousand years after they razed roman civilization like the mongol horde they are.
Jack Jackson
>printing machine Johannes Gutenberg's work on the printing press began in approximately 1436
correction. The only contribution to humanity the Germans first developed in 1436.
Hunter Hernandez
before 1436 name a single German contribution to humanity.
I can agree invention of protestantism was actually one of the worst things for Europe to have happened

Except this one Ossi nationalist here he's so damn annoying

teutonic order hanseatic league
extremely retarded to compare northern countries in the middle ages to mediterranean ones btw, completely different base line of conditions with thick mud, heavy forests, and large distance to trading hubs in mesopotamia

The state of the catholic church before the reformation was worse. If the catholic church had a reform earlier the reformation never would've happend.

The thought that the only value their country had over others are natural resources like oil barons in the modern day does not factor inside their mind.
>teutonic order What value to humanity did this have?

>teutonic order Killed people, took land. How is this different than a mongol war band?
>hanseatic league trading furs don't see its value.
