If you could reverse the result of any war in history, which one would it be?

If you could reverse the result of any war in history, which one would it be?

Russian civil war for me

Hard mode: No world wars

I'd probably make the Scandis win in 1066 to see what would happen if the UK was Nordic rather than Norman.

The war on Whites.

Same for me, user.

it isn't over yet

30 years war, nation states were a mistake.

French revolution
I wish I could keep the technology it brought humanity tho

Rhodesian War

Napoleonic wars

Northern Wars, if I had to choose one, then I'd go with the first one.

American civil war

You mean War of Secession. Also /thread

/thread

I /thread'd this but I'd also not mind if allied victory in europe/china was reversed. kmt/japan keeping china wouldn't have been bad, and pax america has failed.

This but also the Mexican-American war. Let Mexico keep Texas, California, etc.

Texas should be it's own republic

Franco-Prussian War

American invasion of Granada.

Granada conquering the US would have been great.

They would have lost to the numerous revolts that William faced after the conquest. Even if they had won I could see them dividing the inheritance and losing it again to a wittan they didn't remove again.

I feel like the only correct answer is ww1.

>great turkish war

inb4 kebab

Wrong, it's the Napoleonic wars.

the guilliotine?

The Great Northern War, Swedish superpower with Charles XII would have been great

If it counts, then the overall initial expansion and first war the Rashidun Caliphate had against the Byzantine Empire and Sassanid Empire.

>tfw no Zoroastrian and Christian Near East

Eh they'd find another reason to autistically kill each other, and this is coming from an Iranian

You do know the Byzantines and Sassanids had several periods of drawn out peace, mutual defensive alliances, and trade going on between themselves with each other right?

Good choice

france spent some time allied with the austrians
what's your point

The thing most damaging to European civilization would be the Punic Wars.

Imagine how butthurt the Romans would be.

This. They fought their own completely separate war for independence from Mexico.

And they had several periods of bloody violence. The Islamic world too had peaceful times, believe it or not

That entire area, just by virtue of being home to so many different ideologies and ethnicities, is volatile by nature

My own parents are still assblasted and hold a grudge against some angry Arab (Omar) from 1400 yrs ago

what would you like most about that? The continuation of slavery or the economic ruin of the south?

The Spanish Flu epidemic

It ended.

Cuban Missile Crisis

Crimean war. The eastern question would have hopefully been solved then. Constantinople would hopefully be greek.

t. Arab
Except perform the 6th century, the Persians and Byzantines had over a century of stability between each other. There was no need to assume there was always going to be an ultimate war of annihilation between the two.

War of Northern Aggression.

Yeah one period of peace doesn't negate the perpetual conflict in literally every other year

For example, after that century they fought each other to the point that some randos from Arabia defeated the two most powerful (yet exasperated) empires of their time

Go to bed Byzantine/Sassanid Internet Defense Force

Taiping Rebellion

Fourth crusade

7 years war

>one period of peace
They had multiple periods of peace, you dong.

the franco spanish war of 1635

Hundred years war.
I wouldn't even change anything on the battlefield, I'd just give pic related 3 more months to live. That'd be it.

Why? Union winning allowed America to unite and turn into a great industrialist power. The South winning secession would mean the victory of the agrarian system, resulting in two lesser states one of them being a backwards shithole much like it happened with Argentina.

I guess a totalitarian absolute monarchy (one of the richest in the world) ruling a population that is over 80% illiterate, uneducated, 1st and 2nd generation freed enedenured servents who were perpetually abused and starving is preferabe to the 1st socialist state that rival the US in industrial power and world influence.

What kind of history buff would have one of the most interesting periods in history not exist?

Franco-Prussian War

>the ussr
>socialist
fuck off trotscum

The Union of Soviet SOCIALIST Republics

you fucking retard

I would stop 9/11

>le ebin soviet militarism XDDD
Come back after you've read some Marx and have the basics down. No, Trotsky is not "the basics".

0/10 troll
things never mentioned: soviet militarism, Marx, Trotsky, my opinions on communism

In order to illicit butthurt you actually have to engage something in their response

Spoken like a true patriot
