Meanwhile in 1925 a Greek officer's dog escaped and crossed the Bulgarian border, and the officer tried to grab it. The Bulgarians fired, sparking a Greco-Bulgarian war and Greece got to sofia

As a brit, I only ever really feel patriotic when viewing our nations past. Say what you will about the morality of it but in the words of Dave Chapelle - "don't judge a photograph because it wasn't taken today". All that aside, over the course of the two videos I've gone from feeling slightly scorned by the Americans basically mugging off the British to kick things off (knowing too how it ends of course), to now feeling like the American victory in this war was not only absolutely well deserved, due to intelligent strategy and British ineptitude, but also that the manner of the victory speaks so much to how present day America holds itself. Listing them would be mundane, but just thinking about the parallels is facinating
The concept of “historical relevance” doesn’t make any sense when you’re talking about morales. Causing human suffering e.g colonialism, slavery, sexism, etc is objectively bad as are the people or nations who did those things. Be proud of your country for its technological genius or something not it’s all encompassing imperialism.

@@johndemesa5196 His more active accomplishments stem more from his excellent military leadership skills, but what his true accomplishments are is his long term set up of how the presidency would work. His cabinet, the two terms, commander in chief… the man laid the foundation and precedent by which all other presidents would hold themselves.
He did have some great accomplishments of course, helping to pass the bill of rights, the victory of the whiskey rebellion, trying to establish religious tolerance, and even creating the first copyright law. His greatest accomplishments was simply helping to pave the way for all other leaders and how they should act. Creating laws, leading the military, and protecting rights.
Basically he his celebrated the same reason we celebrate the other founding fathers. He helped establish the foundation by which the country grew and evolved, he is the standard by which other leaders would compare themselves.
