Time lapse of Every Battle in History

Some dude went to Wikipedia and superimposed every battle the website has listed onto a map of the globe. He also kept tabs on the Top 10 "winningest" nations throughout history.
YouTube
If you don't want to watch the 5+ minute video, the final Top 10 are as follows:
1. France - 1,115 battles won
2. Great Britain - 1,105 battles won
3. United States - 833 battles won
4. Russia - 491 battles won
5. Germany - 425 battles won
6. Spain - 387 battles won
7. Poland - 344 battles won
8. Rome - 259 battles won
9. China - 244 battles won
10. Turkey - 210 battles won

Their current reputation is not indicative of their historical military prowess.
quote:
4. Russia - 491 battles won 5. Germany - 425 battles won
Both overrated.

So China, a county with thousands of years of history only won 244 battles?
For some odd reason I just don’t believe that

A lot of the USA wins were from the civil war.

I like to think I keep pretty up to date on current events but I must have slept through the Battle of Des Moines and the Battle of Jacksonville in 2011.

A lot more battles in Illinois than I thought.

Now do one with battle raps

Can't watch the video at the moment but what do they list as the first battle in recorded history?

Damn, I was rooting for the Sea Peoples! I feel like an Arkansas fan now.

If you are the Boss you don’t get challenged as much as others.

White people sure do love them some wars 
What’s amazing is how fast the US jumped up there considering how young our nation is

Rome held the number one spot for a long time.
Until Clemson kicked their arse.

We're in 3rd place but everyone chilled the frick out when we dropped that bomb for the 2nd time.

Alexander the Great put Macedon in the top 10 until 1700 years after his death.

The dots on the map should be color coded to the victor.

The US doesn't enter the top 10 until 1857. But watch how quick we shoot up to 3. 7 years. Merica!!!

I'm curious of the wars in 2017 in what looks like South Dakota and Florida.
