I find really annoying when people takes the achievements of others as theirs just because they happened to be born in the same country.



pwin´ every other villain since 1994

Hmm, probably fairly different.

WWI - would have taken a while longer for the allies to win without the USA. Because of the increased damage done to the allies during the longer war, the conditions in the treaty of Versailles would have been even more severe. This would have led to WWII occurring sooner. It would probably be this, more than the direct absence of the USA that would have made WWII more difficult for the allies, potentially even to the extent that the axis could have won. After that, history has diverged so much that it's impossible to tell what would happen.

soccer is the most popular sport on this planet. nice that you only like amercian sports but that makes it not more truthfully...and we have rugby not that this isn't as good as football...

Haha I just love to troll soccer because there are a lot of Europeans on this site and it bothers them. Honestly though I don't understand why its popular, I can see why in 3rd world countries because all you need to play it is a ball and 2 posts to make a goal, but I don't get why it's popular in Europe. I do love rugby though, I don't know who invented it but its a great sport, played it my last year in high school. Once you understand how it works its a lot of fun to play and to watch. 

Oh and you said I only like American sports...not even close! Hockey is my favourite (Canada) and the rest of the sports I like are European (golf, tennis, rugby) with the exception of American football. 

And I know Movie/TV taste is subjective but its hard to deny America puts out the best (and some of the worst) content in these areas. I will give Britain the nod when it comes to music though, pretty amazing shit came from there. Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Queen, Beatles, Stones, half of Fleetwood Mac, The Who, The Clash, Sex Pistols, Cream, etc. Definitely equal to America in that respect. 

This is just beyond trolling, your posts are not only filled with ignorance but this one it's quite offensive.

And Rugby was invented in the UK.

How is it offensive saying soccer is popular in 3rd world countries because its simple? That's all I was saying. I don't expect hockey to be popular in Africa because its too hot for ice and they don't have ice rinks or hockey equipment. Soccer is simple and you don't need much to play it. 



Completely Different. No American Revolution, no French Revolution, meaning a weaker Germany and Italy, no modernization of European law, no modern politics, no independence in Latin America, Balkanization of the continent, a bigger Mexico equivalent, increased British power, and that's just based on the first few decades!

Be nice, Marks. Don't tell the truth about soccer. A lot of the South American countries and all of those Eastern European countries have nothing else besides soccer. They take it very personally 



Well I guess the TV series would be worse and No Naughty dog :(, But that's about it. Oh and German would have ruled the world :(.
The world would have probably been alot different.
