We don't know much of it anymore with the decline of Europe, but for several centuries the dominant geopolitical goal of most countries on Earth was to defend themselves from European invasion. Why do you think every incremental ratchet step on the gear of Germany rearming in the last three years has been taken as serious headline news by so many?

Cause they started two world wars previously. The second one coupled with genocide, actually multiple separate genocides going on at the same time.
- OgsyedIE 10mo agoGermany only started the second and all parties in the first had some prior experience with conducting a genocide.

Their politics was split roughly into two camps - war hawks wanting to start the war now and moderates wanting to wait for a year and then start a war. It is not that other countries were full of saints ... but Germany did started both those wars.
