Major Battles Fought
Germany had one of the major roles in World War I and II where it faced befitting defeats from the opponents, losing millions of people.
After the major World Wars and losses, Germany never got involved directly into major battles but sent their troops to their allies during the Ethiopian civil war, Angolan civil war, Bosnian war and Afghanistan war.
Whenever we hear about the German military, the first thought that comes to our mind is Adolf Hitler, who killed around 6 million Jews to gain power. The German military ended up low as it has less submarines and does not have an aircraft carrier. The German army has a record number of inexperienced underage soldiers making it weaker and now they are planning to revamp their strategy and execute new recruitment processes.
Sure the "defense" business is going well, but spreading peace in the world has a price (like in Afghanistan, Irak, Syria...).
Come on Donald, it's christmas time!
