i just want to keep the pound i like most euro countries like sweden italy spain and even france just have a prop with people saying germany is better then everyone else thats what caused would war 1 and 2

 

Dude?!?! Do you know any history at all?! It wasn't as if the whole of Germany woke up one day and decided it wanted to invade it's neighbours. And the First World War led to the Second World War, due to the mistreatment of Germany by the victors.

And if people can't put the Two World Wars and the British Empire behind them, learn from them, then our country will never get on with the world.

it was not all the victors the USA were against some of the mistreatment in the treaty and the english were not as bad as the french the french wanted the germans to pay and it was their thought for second world war and yes the first world war germany says they were defending a weaker country but that was excuse just because they thought they were better then the rest of the world.

second world war was caused by the french firstly secondly uk and thirdly USA

 

Not as simple as that, and additionally the president of the USA at that time, was Wilson, and he thought everyone should get on well, no one should be punished, frankly a 1919 hippie. And the first world war was caused by lots of things, thought the main part was that Germany was challenging the British Navy for supremacy on the sea, and being our usual arrogant selves we couldn't have any of that, after all the British Empire was a hyperpower (?) and any threat should be dealt with. But yes, unlike WWII, WWI seems to have been caused more by flexing of egos than anything else.

However, if anyone has a degree in history, feel free to point out inaccuracies
