Thats the reason why I never in my live understood why Germany is accused of being igniting WWI. I recently read a book about Prussia. Theres a new study from US students. They found out that between 1800 and 1940 there were about 270 wars. Prussia/Germany was only involved in 8% of these wars. Guess what: Britain 28% and France 26%.
