It’s important to remember that the losing side didn’t have a lot of tanks surviving the war. We, being the victors, had lots of tanks at war’s and. This was a severe constraint on hollywood.

Great episode. Food shortages was as bad, if not worse in Austria-Hungary. It got so bad that by autumn 1918, Austria-Hungary hijacked barges on the Danube full of wheat from Romania headed for Germany. The Germans were so furious they actually threatened war on their own ally.

That first scene from All Quiet, man I can't even imagine what that would feel like. You're pumped up with adrenaline which is a natural appetite suppressant, but at the same time you are starving for calories and all of a sudden you come across an allied kitchen with likely more food than your battalion has seen in ages

One factor in Germany's food shortages - was the fact that they grew crops using specific fertilizers which they imported. The British Blockade limited their ability to import this fertilizer.They had to adjust the crops they grew based on what they could grow but this took time. Another factor was the number of farmers drafted into the Army. They defeated Russia in 1917 and were ceded a lot of land by the Russians in their peace treaty - but they were not able to grow enough food in the time they had left to end their famine. The Prussians had been British Allies against Napoleon and in 1870, the British had done nothing while Prussia defeated France. Two things changed. One of them was that Kaiser Wilhelm II, whose mother was Queen Victoria's Daughter making him her oldest Grand Child, spent a lot of time in Britain and loved the Royal Navy. It is my personal opinion that given a choice to be Kaiser or an Officer in the RN - Willy would have chosen the RN. That of course - could not happen as he certainly did NOT have that choice - but - if he couldn't be in the RN - as Kaiser - he could build his own Navy. It just doesn't seem to have occurred to him - that the British might not like that. Next - both Britain and Germany were among the guarantors of Belgian Neutrality. Here - one of the factors was that Germany didn't want to fight a war on two fronts. When Serbia started the war by killing the heir to the Austrian Throne, Austria went to war with Serbia - and the Russians sided with Serbia. Germany was allied with Austria and so (despite the fact that the Czar and the Kaiser were related by marriage as the Czar's Wife was also a grandchild of Queen Victoria) it ended up at war with Russia - which made the Russian Ally France - a German enemy. The Franco German border was in very rough terrain and lined by forts on both sides. Rather than go through there as they had in 1870 - they opted for the von Schlieffen Plan to go through Northern Belgium - which was nice and flat and had fewer (though not no) Forts. The idea was that they'd sweep down on Paris from the North and knock France out of the war. The problem here - was that violating Belgian Neutrality - brought Britain into the war and got them Blockaded. This was the biggest mistake they made. France was squealing for Britain to come in on their side - but - it was not a sure thing that they would - until the Germans went into Belgium. What the Germans could have done - was to stay on the defensive behind their own line of forts in all that rough terrain along the Franco German Border - while they and the Austrians concentrated on the Russians. The German High Seas Fleet - didn't make any contribution to the war for Germany - and - when it mutinied in 1918 may have cost it the war. Germany would have been a lot better off with a small enough Navy to deal with the French - but - not a large enough one to alienate the British. If they had not squandered as much military strength in a Navy that did them no good and not gone into Belgium - there is a very good chance they would not have been blockaded. They beat Russians even as it was - if they'd concentrated on it - instead of France - they might have won. .

That plan of yours assumes TWO things: 1) That Britain WOULDN'T do anything when the two are at war, and 2) The Germans didn't do anything that would trigger the British into action. The first one is premised on the idea that Britain still follows the "Balance of Power" concept of international politics. Throughout the 19th Century, Britain has been flipflopping on temporary alliances as to maintain the "balance of power" on the continent and keep Britain secure. This "Splendid Isolation" policy that started in the 1810's is becoming problematic upon the start of the 20th Century due to Bismarck getting the boot. Britain is already alarmed that a unified Germany existed and is challenging British economic supremacy in 1871, what stopped them is Bismarck's assurance they would not step on what is Britain's "turf" (ie empire building and being the world's workshop). That changed with Wilhelm II and his change of direction as to foreign politics (establishing German colonies in the empty spaces left in Africa and Asia and meddling in British colonial affairs such as in Morocco), reigniting British fears of being outdone by the Germans. Such far flung colonies require a more blue water navy, leading to a snowballing effect of the British increasing spending on the navy then the Germans expanding their navy to match Britains vice versa, all fueled by those who wanted to challenge British naval supremacy other than the Kaiser. Not to mention the British public's opinion of the Germans before and during the war (which isn't high given how Germany is an antithesis of the British way of life, read without any of the liberty and democracy they enjoyed). Much of the initial animosity of the British public towards the Germans is due to stories of atrocities that happened in Belgium; with or without Belgium, the stories of atrocities that would happen in France - whether real or imagined - would not put Germany in any favorable position as far as the British public is concerned. Even if Germany didn't invade Belgium to try to encircle the French in a pincer movement (how that strategy came about is a whole different story which involves European militaries being obsessed to reenact the Carthaginian victory of Cannae over the Romans), Britain wouldn't be comfortable letting a victorious Germany dictate the Continent on its own terms so it would do what the US OTL did prior to its entry in WW1: help France with everything short of sending troops. If it means escorting the supply ships using the Royal Navy, they would do it. This statement leads me to my second point... Britain would only remain de jure neutral for as long as Germany didn't do anything that would give them a reason to join the war. If Germany still does submarine warfare, unrestricted or otherwise, at some point some overzealous KM captain would raid or sink a supply ship flying the British merchant marine to stop it from reaching France. That act wouldn't go unnoticed by those who already are not fans of the Germans. The whole situation of a neutral Britain to this alternate WW1 is basically something like OTL US prior to its entry to WW1: despite being neutral, it has some clear bias as to who to favor and will do un-neutral things to keep their biased choice afloat...

P.S. Forgot to mention the Ottoman Empire. The only reason the Ottomans joined the Germans in this war is due to British and French threats to its territorial integrity. If the Ottoman Empire decides to join in the war to defend its territory against the French and British, the Germans are compelled to declare war on Britain and Britain in turn would be compelled to declare war on Germany. If not Belgium then Egypt or the Gulf States may be the Casus belli...

When I was in Elementary school, I was playing freeze tag with some kids. There was this one kid who Kept taunting me and I couldnt manage to catch him. But with a butterfly Yo-yo in my pocket, and this myth/legend in my head I got an Idea. I slipped the yo-yo on and when he ran away I managed to wrap the Yo-yo around his leg and pulled it out from under him. Then, as he got up, I tagged him. Felt guilty as hell about it later, but it was one of the coolest moments of my early childhood.

Great video JJ and also gives insight to WWI and also covert buyers of certain items in war along with dealing with neutral nations to get said supplies. Also for the covert shopping I think I also heard Great Britain did something like this during the Falklands War and they got their special agents with who knows how much it's in briefcases to buy up anti-ship missiles the enemy was using it's not all just bombs and bullets as this video shows.

The Falklands bit isn't even surprising. Due to international laws on war (neutrals can't trade with nations at war), neither Argentina or Britain declared any state of war between them. In such a legal atmosphere, they are free to get supplies from the same countries and situations that you mention may have happened...

Growing up, there was a German lady living next door who was like a grandmother to me. She was born in the Dresden area in the early 1890s. She emigrated to America in 1913 or so, but returned to Germany to get married and got stuck there when the war broke out. Sadly, her fiance was blown to smithereens in the Belgian trenches. When I knew her she still had a small porcelain bowl that held the monthly butter ration. It was VERY small. She also refused to eat turnips. She told me that the only thing they had to eat by the end of the war was turnips. Turnip soup, turnip pie, turnip stew. You name it, it had turnip in the name. It became a bit of a joke in our family to offer her turnips at dinner.
