The Germans started by invading Belgium, giving the Belgium's only a few hours to stand aside or fight. Their goal was to drive hard through Belgium, capturing the Belgium's rail lines for resupply. Then make a hard left turn into France, bypassing all the French forts like Verdun By attacking a neutral country, the Germans brought the British into the war, along with the British fleet. It also enraged the American government, so Wilson looked the other way when Springfield and Remington shipped 500,000 en-field rifles to Britain. Britain used the riffles to build a two million man army, which allowed the Allies to match the Germans, division for division. The French paid a horrible price keeping the Germans down to a slow walk. Maybe 500,000 french died in the first year of the war. After 6 months, the Germans ran low on ammunition, dug in and focused on fighting in the east. If the Germans had waited for the French to attack them first, then Britain would have stayed out of the war. The German Navy would have sailed out and beat the snot out of the French. It turned out by going through Belgium, the Germans only gained a few weeks. If the Germans had attacked France directly, the French forts would have held them up only a few weeks, and then Verdun would have fallen to the Germans in 1914

What makes Brazil different from the rest of Latin America?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:This essay, part history of ideas and part history of international relations, examines Brazil's relationship with Latin America in historical perspective. For more than a century after independence, neither Spanish American intellectuals nor Spanish American governments considered Brazil part of 'América Latina'. For their part, Brazilian intellectuals and Brazilian governments only had eyes for Europe and increasingly, after 1889, the United States, except for a strong interest in the Rio de la Plata. When, especially during the Cold War, the United States, and by extension the rest of the world, began to regard and treat Brazil as part of 'Latin America', Brazilian governments and Brazilian intellectuals, apart from some on the Left, still did not think of Brazil as an integral part of the region. Since the end of the Cold War, however, Brazil has for the first time pursued a policy of engagement with its neighbours - in South America. Este ensayo, en parte historia de ideas y en parte de relaciones internacionales, examina el vínculo de Brasil con Latinoamérica desde una perspectiva histórica. Por más de un siglo después de la Independencia ni los intelectuales ni los gobiernos hispanoamericanos consideraron a Brasil como parte de ‘América Latina’. Por su parte, los intelectuales y gobiernos brasileños sólo tuvieron ojos para Europa y crecientemente, luego de 1889, para los Estados Unidos, con excepción por un interés en el Río de la Plata. Cuando Estados Unidos (especialmente durante la Guerra Fría) y por extensión el resto del mundo empezaron a considerar y tratar a Brasil como parte de ‘Latin America’, los gobiernos e intelectuales brasileños, aparte de la izquierda, aún no ubicaban a Brasil como una parte integral de la región. Desde el fin de la Guerra Fría, sin embargo, Brasil por primera vez ha perseguido una política de involucramiento con sus vecinos — en Sudamérica. Em parte historia das idéias e em parte urna história das relações internacionais, este ensaio examina a relaçõo do Brasil com a América Latina em perspectiva histórica. Por mais de um século após sua indepêndencia, intelectuais e governos da América Espanhola nao consideravam o Brasil como pertencente à ‘América Latina’. Excetuando um interesse pelo Rio da Prata, por sua vez os intelectuais e governos brasileiros somente se voltavam para a Europa, e após 1889 progressivamente mais para os Estados Unidos. Uma vez que os Estados Unidos e consequentemente o resto do mundo começaram a perceber e tratar o Brasil como integrante da ‘Latin America’, particularmente durante a Guerra Fria, salvo alguns esquerdistas, governos e intelectuais brasileiros ainda não consideravam o Brasil como componente daquela região. No entanto, a partir do final da Guerra Fria, o Brasil tem buscado urna política de envolvimento pela primeira vez com os seus vizinhos - na América do Sul.
