@RTTLCLIPS@sonehabriot@Agamemnonuwa Since when is "the whole planet" spicland? Plus you're legitimately retarded if you think success in war is measured by map colors. Imagine losing to 3000 tribesmen, sad!
@Albenation@sadbathy To give some credit to the Armenians, if this count is accurate, then the Azerbaijani performance was more mediocre than the one-sided slaughterfest "war journalists" claimed it to be.
@GraniRau Japan even had (and trivially still has) cousin marriage. Intuitively everyone also prefers the polygamous Mongols to the monogamous Habesha.
@BillTheKid1603 There's a couple cases like this, I also never understood the praise the Egyptian military got for the Yom Kippur war or people flagging anything that somewhat praises the Confederate military performance as "Lost Cause".
@BillTheKid1603 Could be downstream from the "publish or perish" academic culture. I don't know, the revisionist theses often end up reverting to more orthodox views over time. Even the Wehrmacht case you mention never convinced me, I never understood the endless praise the Red Army gets.
