Hey hey hey, there was nothing wrong with the old Kaiserreich, it's just that Wilhelm the Second was a deformed war mongering twat.

But Bundesrepublik is pretty good as well. I plan on visiting at some point.

Back on topic however, the Holy Roman Empire is my preferred faction in Medieval 2 (probably due to my "Empire" fetish) hence why I despise the name "Milan" to this very day.

Seriously, Milanese mountain doomstacks would drive off the Mongol hordes.

As for the Teutonic Knights, I'm not all that fond of them. However, their successors are quite dear to me in Empire Total War...

Edit: @Lord Sovereign Back on topic, the HRE is a good faction overall and is my second favorite faction of Medieval 2, the first spot is taken by Spain.

A shame that we couldn't have an update of the kingdoms units for Byzantium, those guys are fun to play as well.

Said Reich which had a long and illustrious history of getting its arse whooped and falling into bloody civil war.

Constantly.

But yeah, I wish they'd done a bit more with Byzantium. Rome's true successors deserved a lot more love and care.

Unless Asuka after this is over uses Unit-2 to conquer Europe... how does this affect A&T??

I love the Habsburg CoAs. Especially when I can figure out what every arms segment means :) (or near enough)

Schwarz-Rot-Gold predates Black-White-Red. It was the colour of the democratic, pan-German movement in the Spring of Nations, 1848, already. That is the thing: Until the end of WW2 kinda settled that debate, the two colours were in a sort of ideological conflict, with clearly denoted roles: Black-White-Red was the flag the authoritarian, conservative elements preferred. Meanwhile, Black-Red-Gold are the democratic German colours. So not just the Bundesrepublik. Also 1848, and the Weimar Republic.

You do know what this thread's topic is, right? :p

Uh...I don't know. One last bit of history though.

The term "Deutschland Deutschland Uber Alles!" and the song to which it belongs, hail from the time you're mentioning right?

It was never anything to do with "Germans being superior" but was all about how the priority for the formation of a German state "came above all else."

Is that correct?

Yeah, this is a thread about a fanfiction of Evangelion. I'd suggest statements about World War 1 and its conception head to a more appropriate thread.

Especially since this one's so wrong! :V

I think Austria fits more as a place that Shinji would be.

Indeed. It means more valuing the German cause above everything else in the world, not Germany being superior to everyone else in the world. And yes, 1848 as well.

OTOH, Shinji might want to let the name of his SEELE grandfather, crazy scientist mother and (by marriage) evil bastard father fade into obscurity.

I mean, it wasn't the cause of everything that was wrong with the Kaiserreich by a long shot, but... Idiot Billy WAS a deranged, warmongering twat.

So:
Asuka: Austria/Habsburg Land.
Shinji: Spain
Rei: Portugal
Kaworu: Byzantium?

At least we know they can pull off the imperial regalia.



Edit: Better resolution.
Edit2: Forgot Hungary was Habsburg Land.
