What kind of bullshit is this... Gavrilo is as a Serb why is it suggested he's a Bosnian?

to be poor is to be exposed to abused,the world is intentionally kept poor by all the great powers it's as if mankind is being punished eternally for its wickedness 😢
-
the end of an empire sure, But a first step toward an entirely different order of New Empire, doesn't anybody else feel the futility of these abstractions to actually encapsulate what is happening right in front of us, keeping perfect pace with the war drum of recorded human History

Oh no, 'History Channel', 'Hitler Channel'...I think I'll rather read some books.
I bet they dont mention the Balfor declaration and how the war could have ended with things going back to the way they were before. -
World War 3 will be triggered by those greedy chinese scums. BILLIONS of lives will be wiped out forever. So why should the whole world tolerate a united and strong china? We must all stand together and TOTALLY DESTROY evil china into 1,000 smaller countries for the sake of all mankind.

I'm recommending to excellent books for understanding the origin and outcome of The Great War (aka WWI.) From a Proud Tower by Barbara Tuchman explores European history during the late 19th century-1913. Fall of Eagles (G. L. Salzberger) explores the end of the German, Russian and Austro-Hungarian empires, all of which used the eagle as a symbol. They're both older books, but well researched and written and interesting reads.

The end of AN empire? More like the end of several empires simultaneously...

9:30 : "France, the only democracy among superpowers"
Britain and Germany were democracies, too. France was the only republic, but not the only democracy. -
270,000 animals is just over 10 animal's a day every day for 70 years I'm not sure this is accurate

Did anyone notice that hot serbian history teacher at 42:30 👌

Ah Europe. No redeeming value what-so-ever. Just one selfish crisis crisis after another. And today we see the set-up for another cleansing of her land written in the blood of the "innocent". Damn Europe!

The period before WW1 was amazing for Europe (less the Balkans maybe during wartime).
So sad it ended up in a total destructive war. I really hope we will not end up fighting among each other like this again :-(
Note how the fanatic nationalistic serb assassin is born in Bosnia-Herzegovina, not even in Serbia, and still "helps" Serbia by forcing it into war.
My complinets for having peopel from all sides in the program- not just British for convenience of language. -
Thank you battlefield 1
-
sad that the history of the Balkan wars is not included in this documentary. Especially Serbias role in the Sandschak conquest - as described in The sleepwalkers by Clark.
