Norway puts in more than Estonia. Le GDP meme shouldn't matter when comparing countries that vary so greatly in GDP.
James Johnson
Our entire parliament has said they wanted to invest in our military. And increase our spendings by 50%. Our government has also promised to do so, but instead they are just cutting in the budget.
Ian Cook
Okay, then America is whiter than Norway because we have more white people in total despite le 56%. You can't have one but not the other.
Parker Perez
After our elections in march there is a chance we will have a ruling coalition consisting of only right wing parties. So we will have to wait for that.
Hudson Carter
why exactly should we pay more money to be loyal lapdog of the USA?

but you are not puting in your 2% and that's the goal

We actually will spend 1,8% this year and 2% the next.
Bentley Martinez
It's not 2, it's 2.2. Not that it matter in the grand scale of things, but still. And Latvia/Lithuania are the countries where defense expenditure is growing the fastest in the world. Europe needs to step up their game and start buying guns not feeding niggers.

The majority of Americans are Scots-Irish or German ethnically.
Matthew Foster
lmao no they're not. The majority are English and German.
Jace Carter
My state is majority English but it's one of only like three. Original settlers were English but that was hundreds and hundreds of years ago and that blood has been diluted by massive immigration from other European countries in the 19th century. We don't even look English m8, you can tell just by looking at us.
Adrian Scott
>why exactly should we pay more money to be loyal lapdog of the USA?
Having a weaker military makes you MORE dependent on the USA
Isaiah Kelly
That's why they should build an strong army for themselves.
Eli Gonzalez
>That's why they should build an strong army for themselves.
Well yeah. Every country builds its armed forces for themselves. But they're not doing that, they are free-riders.
Cameron Johnson
>In the 1980 United States Census, over 49 million (49,598,035) Americans claimed English ancestry, at the time around 26.34% of the total population and largest reported group which, even today, would make them the largest ethnic group in the United States
This was in 1980 before the new American category came in (where people of English stock will just put American). Of course it's all been diluted over the past couple of centuries, but it'll still be English and German genes sloshing about which will make up the most percentage.
Parker Parker
Because you refused to accept us cunts
Lucas Garcia
Just going off a feeling and you're free to correct me but aren't they restricted for what come to army? Since ww2 and stuff?
Easton Jackson
I only just learned this actually almost happened in the early 00s like a month ago. I would actually like it if you joined, it should be repurposed as an organizaton to be a bloc of Eurasian-American nations against China and Islamofascism.
The fact that so many people identify with the American category now goes to show that most people have no idea what they're talking about. But there isn't much of a way of knowing for sure because of that and you could be right.
However the "American ethnicity" is most predominant now in the South which is mostly Scots-Irish but where muh heritage is a lot less common so people don't care.
Nolan Rogers
Germany hasn't faced troop restriction since the 1950s iirc
John Thompson
>The fact that so many people identify with the American category now goes to show that most people have no idea what they're talking about. But there isn't much of a way of knowing for sure because of that and you could be right.
Very true and many people will be so mixed by now there's no point attaching yourself to just one country of origin.
Jeremiah Cruz
Yep. These are the restrictions:
>Armed Forces of no more than 370,000 personnel - of whom at most 345,000 were to be in the Army and Air Force >No manufacture, possession or control of NBC weapons >Full application of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty to the whole of re-united Germany >No foreign armies and/or nuclear weapons may be stationed in the area of the former GDR and Berlin >Additionally, Germany fully acknowledges the current common border with Poland - the Oder-Neisse-line.
Total active personnel in the ENTIRE German armed forces today (this includes plenty of civvies and even university students): 177,308
These restrictions applied to West Germany when the left hand side of pic related was their land forces.
Yes, there are restrictions. NO, they are no excuse whatsoever for free-riding.
Isaiah Barnes
if Poland invaded Lithuania who would you support
Thomas Baker
The deal with russia was they would join if we left.
And English is the majority is. You have no idea how many people used to claim they were German but then took an ancestry test and stopped climbing they were German
Daniel Howard
why exactly should we waste money for strong military? who is attacking us?
thats why i support a strong european army
Carter Scott
If Germany tried again to take over Europe this time they would succed UK,France,USA are weak
Gabriel Sanchez
>German military
Lmao
Liam Long
dont worry polan, we are good guys now
Ryder Hernandez
You but only if you make it look like they attacked first to avoid bad PR. We need intermarium, because it's 2017.
Caleb Ward
>thats why i support a strong european army
A strong European army requires a strong European state. No more Germany. Your savers will have to underwrite the liabilities of southern Europe high-debt countries. Good luck making that happen, Hans.
>If Germany tried again to take over Europe this time they would succed UK,France,USA are weak
The funniest part of this is that you said it in a reply to a post with a chart telling you that in 2015 the Germans had 34 regular land battalions to the UK's 50.
It's a crazy world we live in when Britain has a stronger land army than Germany.
Kayden Anderson
Hitler made an army in 16 years that took over the mainland >implying i am a pole Schlesier here
Oliver Sullivan
>in 16 years That's right. 16 years. During which the UK, France and USA will presumably ignore the German build-up and spend their time flying kites in the park?
>that took over the mainland For several months, until they lost. Again.
Isaac Parker
Because we secretly want to be raped.
Justin Hernandez
>implying you shart your pants after 1933 and you know its true
Aiden Phillips
I think his point is that Germany's capability would be much higher than say Britain's Not that it could topple US but it could but up a much better fight than last time if we gross out nukes.
Parker King
Congratulations, you are even more cringeworthy than American muh heritage wehraboos. Hope your language finally dies so you can stop LARPing and get back to the coal mines.
Jack Parker

Here are British and Polish tanks working together in a cohesive manner.
William Martinez
>you shart your pants after 1933 and you know its true After 1933, you say? Pic related.
>I think his point is that Germany's capability would be much higher than say Britain's
What is the evidence for that, when they're so behind Britain in capability today?
Connor Collins
>What is the evidence for that, when they're so behind Britain in capability today?
That's a dubious assumption to make since the ones before you made the same assumption and were pretty buttblasted when Hitler started mobilizing and showing off Wehrmacht for good. Though i meant maximum capability. They have more population and industry. Pretty considerable power if they wish to be.
Tyler Garcia
I doubt it very much sinced theyd only fight 9-5 Monday to Friday
>That's a dubious assumption to make since the ones before you made the same assumption
No they didn't. Haven't you heard of the naval arms race between Britain and Germany prior to WW1, or the British rearmament that started as soon as the Nazis came into power (years before Hitler started showing off the Wehrmacht)?
>They have more population and industry. Pretty considerable power if they wish to be.
Their population is converging slowly with the UK's and has been for many years. They had a greater population advantage over Britain during the world wars.
Today, Germany has only 15 million more people than the UK, and this is even worse than it looks because their demographics are a lot worse. More of Germany's 80 million are older than the UK's 65 million.
I'm going to support myself with some facts here. First, Germany's population pyramid
Adam Wilson
The UK's population pyramid
Carter Hall
I hope we leave this dirtfield tbf
James Thompson
NATO is a scam and serves 0 purposes
Easton Miller
Wow, if you compare the lower part of those pyramids... the UK actually has more people in all the age groups from 18 to 29 than Germany. In absolute numbers.
Leo Smith
Now a comparison with the past.
Germany to the UK populations
2016: 80(81?) million to 65 million 1907: 67 million to 40 million.
In 1907, the UK had 59.7% of Germany's population
In 2016, the UK has 80.2% of Germany's population (if we give Germany 81 million today)
Aiden Ramirez
Better question- Why the fuck does NATO still exist?
Sebastian Rivera
>this post coming from per capita: the country
wew
Parker Wood
In 1939, Nazi Germany had 69 million people. Britain had 66.4% of Nazi Germany's population in 1939.
In summary.
1907: 59.7% 1939: 66.4% 2016: 80.2%
Justin Taylor
>that margin between male 85-94 Germans and female 85-94 Germans
Gabriel Ramirez
>Why the fuck does NATO still exist?
Because we are in the post-imperial world of many small nation-states that are incapable of protecting themselves against bigger countries. They crave protection, therefore NATO
Juan Edwards
*waves tail*
Michael Martin
you are right its not necessary. We dont need nato.
Dylan Jones
>let others do your fight burgers war experience is basically not existing. And all your foreign policy is to keep it there. But you also dont want to lose your influence. Which results in other people should fight for your interest. Nato is the means to do this.
Daniel Taylor
Those billions of schekells in administrative spendings will not go bomb Bosnia by themselves.
Jack Gutierrez
As long as r*ssians exist there will be nato, it's that simple Once r*ssians are gassed to the last woman and child nato can be abolished
