I know that. That makes Germany more guilty than England how exactly?

I actually lay more blame for WW2 on France and Britain... if they had given an honorable peace to germany rather than trying to punish and crush the people there would have probably been little ground for Hitler to plant his dogma.

France and Britain were trying to maintain the status quo. Germany and its allies were trying to upset the status quo. Therefore they are more guilty than the current world powers

The death of colonialism caused much pain in the world with the end result being Europe becoming a second class world power. Only now is Europe back in the game.

Neither of the wars were Germany's fault.

Germany had no choice but to declare war on Russia. The Tsar had ordered a full mobilization of its troops to fight Austria after they had invaded Serbia. What was Germany going to do? Sit there and watch as one member of the Dual Alliance, the greatest threat to the existence of the Reich, had its way with the Habsburgs?

World War II happened because of Versailles, which was completely unfair. The Germans had a just cause.

So if an established schoolyard bully and a wannabe schoolyard bully try to beat each other up the established schoolyard bully isn't responsible

Here is an old joke.

In Heaven the cooks are French, the lovers are Italian, the mechanics are German, the police are British, and the whole place is run by the Swiss. In Hell the cooks are British, the lovers are Swiss, the mechanics are French, the police are German, and the whole place is run by the Italians.

Threads like these remind me we really are the center of the world.

Not the center of the world but clearly Germany is the most important nation in Europe
