Consider this. In 1950s W. Germany women outnumbered men in some areas 4 to 1. In total combined male loss in Germany between the wars was about 46% of the male population dead. In France combined dead of military men was just under 2 million. Combine that with civilians killed and the numbers approach just over 2 million dead. Even prior to 1914 birth rates were beginning to shrink as W. Europe was becoming industrialized and very urban.

Whe you figure that 50% of the males are dead and a percentage of the remaining are too old to reproduce in significant numbers, the appetite for war or military action becomes prohibitive. That kind of destruction has consequences beyond the end of the war. It's not easy to come back from. By comparison the US had 116,000 in WWIi and just over 400,000 combined in WWII. So just over 500,000 combined. The French had 1.4 million soldiers killed in WWI alone, English 900,000 +/-. The Germans had 2 million military deaths. Then 25 years later.....Germany had suffered about 4.5 million military deaths and about another 3 million civilians.

We Americans lost very few people by comparison, but the wars devastated the male population in W. Europe. They haven't recovered in reality, so now they import their populations.

Do you realize how ironic(in a hilarious way) it is for the poliboard to call out Europe as “backward” or “bumpkins?

I honestly laughed out loud enough so that my wife heard me in the next room…

You really haven't been to Europe have you? There are many, many different places where there are what many would call "bumpkins".

In 200 years (or less) the entire history of the world will have been rewritten. All European history will be gone from text books, the internet, and museums. The Roman Empire will be wiped away thru destruction of all monuments. Countries will be renamed and redrawn. It will be the Muslim west, the Asian east, and the Hispanic south.

They are inbred, especially the top tier (royalty, etc). The royalty of one country would marry the royalty of another country, etc., etc. Their governments by and large are lazy as most governments are. The governments of Europe always seem to be bickering (as one would do with family).

Part of the issue is they are quick to forget history. One would have thought once world war 1 ended, and certainly world war 2, that measures would have been taken by all and constantly improved as a group. Consider NATO, by and large it is an inept and merely symbolic entity.

Thank you for the detailed response. The depth of the problem, and the persistence of the problem is news to me.

I've been all over the place in Europe. It's very civilized and educated for the most part...
Generally speaking, it doesn't fit the OP'S absurd description at all, and most of you know it. Shame on me for responding to nonsense...

Thanks for the response. It is obvious you haven't been there or if you have, have stayed only outside the ghettos and only visited the cultural centers which are strangely, just about the same as cultural centers anywhere.

Next time, visit smaller locals. Sit down and visit with people at a konoba or coffee shop in some village. Then let me know.

Not to derail the thread but did you do Camino de Santiago? It’s on my bucket list. I was reading and watching videos last night.


No. We went on a Fatima to Lourdes pilgrimage hosted by The Catholic Traveler. It was a fantastic trip. Mass every day in fantastic churches/holy sites. Great food and drink. Great people on the trip. Small group of 20 people from all over the US.

We did not walk the Camino, but my wife does want to do this in the next few years.

Europe at some point lost its zeal for greatness that America still mostly has.


It wasn't WW2 that broke them and they lost their zeal for greatness. The socialism and marxism long before WW2 was zapping their greatness and made them vulnerable when the Germans decided to go to war.

Thank you for the reply. The Camino is certainly at the top of my list but what y’all did sounds cool as well. Peace and blessings.

Euro history is royalty and serfdom. It's in their DNA. They are far happier being serfs.
