For us it was because we stopped going to war.

Did anyone else have a war during this period?

Yes and famine

This period was for UK, France the colonization era in Asia. Africa also.
And others europeans countries were there too

no, mid 1900s america was

Objectively yes

No the 1920's were unless you lived in Germany

Not for us

only if you were rich

for a privileged minority of the population, yes.

the majority lived under africa-tier conditions.

Maybe if you were a russian serf

Yeah absolutely. I miss polio, WW1 and the Spanish Flu desu

>russian serf
they were starving and were treated like absolute garbage, not to mention literacy rate among them was close to zero.
i am honestly so glad the russian empire collapsed, it was truly a hell for people

The russian empire was industrializing and changing by the beginning of WW1. If the Czar was competent the soviets would've never seized power

if the czar was competent, the russian empire wouldn't be industrialising and changing by the beginning of WW1.

pre-industrial aristocratic culture and social institutions are utterly irreconcilable with an industrialised economy. some kind of revolution was just waiting to happen, even if it wouldn't necessarily be bolshevik.

changes in economy and industry ALWAYS lead the way for social change, as well.

>dude anything outside of the 21st century was medieval dark ages-tier!!!

kys retard

Don't confuse the liberal ideas swept through europe with industrialization

Do you in fact deny the existence of the polio epidemic, world war 1 and the spanish flu?

And yes you dumb nigger, having good odds of being paralyzed, dying to fucked lungs or dying in war is objectively fucking shit compared to now. If you're going to be one of those nostalgic rose goggle retards at least do it over an era you were alive to experience.

>russians

>names very real turn of the century phenomena that make the time objectively worse to live in compared to today
>dismissed without any counter-argument at all
do you miss the opportunity to get your boipucc ravaged by turkish "artillery", bruce?

Aesthetically yes.
Morally yes.

I love that period. The world was going the right place.

it's widely agreed that they go hand in hand. only an idealist would disagree.

industrialisation -> birth of a new middle class -> development of a bourgeois culture -> development of liberal ideas

We had a war then.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aceh_War

>development of a bourgeois culture

There was always a bourgeois culture. They just weren't big in piss pot countries like yours

We were fighting Jihadi's centuries ago.

>Muslim Acehnese from the Aceh Sultanate performed "holy war" known as Parang-sabil against invaders such as Americans in the attack on Joseph Peabody's ship Friendship, the First Sumatran expedition and the Second Sumatran expedition,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24] and against the Dutch in the Dutch expedition on the west coast of Sumatra and most notably during the Aceh War, where they performed suicide attacks as part of "parang sabil". It was considered as part of personal jihad in the Islamic religion of the Acehnese.

Well you occupied Åland. Area that was supposed to be demilitarized
Never trust the Swede etc

>post french drawing
>this is actually the time when France become a big joke
Wow you're retarded

aristocratic culture =/= bourgeois culture

bourgeois culture is largely agreed to be the result of the industrial revolution. what made them special is that they had enough influence to challenge the aristocracy and the aristocratic values, just by being rich, as opposed to having the right bloodline.

It's hell for Asian

Like I said that existed in other places in Europe just not piss pots like Sweden or Russia

examples?

England, The english colonies, the Lowlands, Switzerland. You know that the good places of Europe and the world

If you weren't a Boer, a native Congolese, a Chinaman, an Armenian, a Balkan Turk, an African railroad constructor, a Western poor worker, an anarchist, a black American, a Latin American peasant, a colonial soldier or a victim of epidemics, maybe the 1900s weren't too bad.

US civil war was 1861-1865 and to date is the worst war they've ever had

here's one from vichy france taken from reddicks

We had a revolution and a won a war against Qing China which was crippled by European powers

>Were the Late 1800s-Early 1900s the most comfiest time in history?
for you

>golden age of colonialism
>ww1 and 2
>great depression
>no oil
yeah no

>my country was a shithole the post

At least half the people you listened don't count as actual humans anyway.

1800s fucked our empire.. masons conquered our overseas land, napoleon betrayed us, overall 0/10

Literacy rate was clise to 0 everywhere else lmao
Prussian socialism invented state education, state healthcare, and state care for citizens as a collective.

>I love that period. The world was going the right place.
It's almost ghastly to think how Europe reverted to barbarism in a short amount of time, nobody in 1910 could have imagined an Auschwitz or a gulag archipelago.

If you didn't mind dying from tuberculosis before the age of 40.. sure.

Too much scientism and not enough culture.

>an auschwitz
Nice hollywood and propaganda works from (((survivors))) which were all proven fake, (((lampshades))) (((soap))) (((anne frank))) all lies.

The Russian foreign minister told Nicholas II at the start of hostilities in 1914 that "Should this war go badly for us, an extreme political and social revolution is all-but inevitable."

and a shadilay to you, my fellow redditor!

kekistani independence when?

Living standards in the late 1800s up to WWI were steadily rising, the middle class was expanding, and on the whole Europe had never been so prosperous. The war catastrophically devastated the middle class and allowed the development of extremist political ideologies.

what's wrong with americans

Sweden was a backwards africa tier hole until the 60's.

Whats wrong with good goyim EU who
lives to betray their ancestors and progeny for the (((holocaust))).

the comfiest time in history is right now

Nothing. I don't like the EU
How are you today sir

I mean pretty much everything. But that pic is just.. Damn
You can't find more autist picture even here :DD

You betrayed yourselves. Imagine the strength the of US now had you not back stabbed the crown.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famine_of_1866–68

tell us about it.

Actually the interwar period. The two world wars made them rich and they established a welfare state during the 30s. Before WWI, Sweden was poor and overpopulated, a lot of people emigrated to the US and Canada. For example, Greta Garbo grew up in a squalid tenement neighborhood in Stockholm.

There was a reason why a lot of people moved to USA.
Even the poorest niggers lived better than europeans at that time

The average American by the turn of the 20th century had more opportunities and higher living standards than his European counterpart, actually as far back as colonial times Americans had a better diet and generally healthier living conditions than Europeans. Many people in Europe then were peasants who were whipped by some nobleman on his estate and ate an extremely meager diet especially deficient in protein. As late as WWI a lot of British army recruits from working class towns like Manchester were in poor health and unfit for military service, suffering from rickets and scurvy.

Grim.

Life would have been really tough back then here.
>the colonization era in Asia. Africa also
So fairly shit all around?

>an Armenian
>Western poor worker
>Balkan Turk
You're right desu
Fuck w*ites

In WWII, when a German tank broke down, they would just abandon it while Americans would try to repair tanks. This was because the US had a well-established car culture and most GIs knew how to fix motor vehicles. The average European at that time did not own an automobile.

France died in the 18th century already

Nice double double trips.

WWII acted as a great social leveler in Europe, the lingering remnants of feudalism disappeared and there was a major middle class expansion. By the 60s, virtually everyone in Western Europe with a job could afford a car/bike/refrigerator/washer/radio.

Homeless rate in nsdap germany was 0% as was unemployment, near 100% had cars.

Nsdap had free healthcare for everyone, free education for everyone, and memberships into the echlelons of power open to everyone.

>doubt.jpg

>MockBa
feels good to be literate

What do you doubt, retard?

free healthcare + eugenics is a horrible combo

>go to clinic for a cough
>wake up without balls, or worse yet, in mengele's basement

There was no eugenics you retard, its propaganda.

Sweden actually practiced it until the 1970s.

How the fuck you think a social movement for the evonomically weak, the children in the streets, the fathers without bread would be fucking crazy sickoo murderers is beyond me, go ask the 10 million whermacht soldiers if there was any "eugenics".

>no internet
no thanks

And Sweden has always been retards, Germany didnt practice eugenics or murdering its population at all.

>german propaganda actively advocated eugenics and euthanasia
>but they didn't actually do it

Also you wouldn't exist.

LONG LIVE NICHOLAS II, TSAR AND AUTOCRAT OF ALL THE RUSSIAS!

This
Nicky had it coming tbqh

Where did they advocate it or do it you fucking kike?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aktion_T4

He could be saluting Wilhelm II depending on where he lived.

Propaganda, there was no eugenics.

I even posted a propaganda poster where they did it, you retarded American.

No they didnt.

So, like 90% of Russians?

m.youtube.com/watch?v=8VumwS3xXj0
70 million that is all of Germany, there was no evil, or any hatm done on anyone.

If i see one more inferior subhuman swede post stupidity..

yes america doesn't exist yet

Actually we did and we helped negotiate a peace in this silly war of yours.

Sure, if you think having fuck all education, comforts, medicine and ability to understand what was going on around the world is "comfy", then why not?

Also, you're a fucking idiot.

More or less for the majority throughout the world, it was. People were dying horribly painful deaths, commonly, for things we now pop into the doctors to antibiotics for. Only a complete fucking idiot would ever think that life was more "comfy" prior to modern comforts.
I fucking hate delusional tradcon scum like you. I bet you also wish for the "end of western civilisation", like the rest of your retarded ilk who genuinely think it was better back in those "manly times" where "men were men and women where women [and STDs were a death sentence]".

You're a fucking idiot.

Also you don't have to go to war every 20 years nowadays, we've outsourced war to shitskin countries.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belle_Époque

'no'. Watch this movie if you have time to. It's about the life of factory workers at the end of the 19th century
imdb.com/title/tt0104046/

>In the 1890s, Father Adolf Daens goes to Aalst, a textile town where child labor is rife, pay and working conditions are horrible, the poor have no vote, and the Catholic church backs the petite bourgeoisie in oppressing workers. He writes a few columns for the Catholic paper, and soon workers are listening and the powerful are in an uproar. He's expelled from the Catholic party, so he starts the Christian Democrats and is elected to Parliament. After Rome disciplines him, he must choose between two callings, as priest and as champion of workers.

It wasn't comfy though for the chinese:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Century_of_humiliation

>Late 1800s-Early 1900s
>ww1 and 2

The RCC in the US was at that time a leader in social justice and workers' rights, thanks to the work of some energetic young priests in the urban Northeast while the Church in Europe were still sitting around crying about the French Revolution 100 years after the fact.

>this time will never come back

Butbutbut a baby boomer told me how great the 50s were when people died of diseases you can easily treat now and lived in fear of nuclear war.
