Title: WWI as a bar brawl
Post by: Russell Phillips on 11 September 2013, 03:28:48 PM

This struck me as something that the good denizens of this forum might appreciate: If WWI was a bar brawl (http://themetapicture.com/if-world-war-one-was-a-bar-fight/). I thought it was really quite good, then made the mistake of reading the comments, where some people complain that, in reducing the four-year war to a bar brawl, various aspects of the conflict got glossed over or ignored :o

One of these days I will learn to never read the comments.

Horrible Histories do a great overview of the cause of WWI.
