Super politicians, jaw dropping True detective and the perfect nation

That's no politician, that's putting your country first.

Last Thursday's New Madame secretary episode was a pretty intense heart throbbing set of events, where Madame Secretary, the president and his chief of staff were forced to find a solution to stop a high US official from over throwing Iran. All paths were blocked and Madame secretary made the difficult decision to go to Iran secretly, to warn them of the coup but she was nearly killed in the cross fire.

I really like the way she handles political situations in general, so much so I wish all politicians could be like this, sadly the reality is harsher than can be imagined; as most politicians don't think about others before a probable situation is about to occur and only think about their own political future of gaining more power.

For example the Calais Migrant crisis where people from war torn countries are making their way to Europe; its common sense that people are going to flock to a better environment, as they cannot change the circumstance of their own country and Europe is on their door step. This is where people trafficking comes in, as they want a better life, they are willing to be extorted for money and in return transported from North Africa to Europe.

Security on the Euro tunnel entrance should have been upgraded when we knew the outcome to the Arab Spring and the cancer in Syria and Iraq flared up. On a overall basis this European Migration crisis shows how ineffective the European union works, as power is split between each country with Germany at the helm as we saw in the Greek Bailout. 

We Europeans did not see this migrant crisis coming at all did we? How pathetic we are in thinking that problems are going to sought themselves out. Wake up and get a grip. If we caused something that sets off crisis after crisis or if fireworks go off on the international stage that cannot be stopped then we should be the ones to make it right. We have faced worse, Hitler and Napoleon amongst thousands of others examples. It boils down to first world countries because no one else is going to do it and if we don't do it, then equally painful consequences as that cancer in Iraq and Syria will occur again, again and again in different forms in different places around the world. If you can stop them types of situations around the world you're not a politician, you’re putting your country first.

What you see today is machine politics and this is what it does in today's world. 

Watching mafioso on TV is such a guilty pleasure!

The last true detective episode was one story of many, of how a Mafioso is gambling with everything but most importantly his own life. I understand you need an extreme attitude when living in a world of crime, as that's how dynasties use to squabble over land to more become powerful. Like everything it can either send him sky high into a world of wealth, power and riches or he can fall on his own sword. All I know is it's going to be high octane, adrenaline rushing and intense final episode to watch.

It was heart breaking to see Taylor Kitsch/Paul Woodrugh being shot in the back by a coward and then for him to realize in these moments before being put down permanently, that the end was so very near as he resisted, because he would not be able to love, cherish and adore is unborn child.#

I have just seen an advert for the final True detective episode. WOW!! :) 

My History tip for the day

One of the main causes of WW1 was Kaiser Wilhelm II, leaving no time to speak of him anymore because there is not point talking about someone who ruined Germany, let’s talk about Frederick III, his father, who knew what he wanted to do for Germany.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nikolaus Karl nicknamed Fritz was born on the 18th October 1831. He was Crown Prince of Germany for 27 years, was a highly decorated and celebrated officer who fought in the Second Schleswig, Austro-Prussian and Franco-Prussian wars. However he hated warfare and being extremely liberal, his father William I, German Emperor banned him from expressing his opinion and voice as he feared of him expressing liberal views. William I was a Jingoist, which is conquer!, conquer! conquer!

Fritz married Victoria, Princess Royal the first born of Queen Victoria. They both looked to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert for admiration and desired to follow in there footsteps in making liberalism thrive in Germany. Wilhelm II set the tone for Germany being cut up in his Premiership but with Frederick III on throne he would Germany on the path of slower and solitude expansion, whereas Wilhelm II ideas were I want Germany's "place under the sun". Sadly Frederick III died of throat cancer in 1888 having only reigned for 100 days, his wife traveled all over Germany to promote Liberalism but with no power she failed.

When you say "Germany" today you automatically think of Hitler, The Third Reich and less commonly the German Empire, The Second Reich, Wilhelm II and how much death and destruction they both caused. Most of this originates from Wilhelm II, so when you look at Germany today and you see this, a country with 357,168 Kilometers squared/137,847 square miles:

Then think of the likely hood of the peace that Frederick III would have brought as he was nothing like Wilhelm II. If he'd of lived Germany would look like this today with a twist.

In the long run The Austro-Hungarian Empire was a dying empire as it composed of Germans, 20% Magyars (Hungarians), 13% Czechs, 10% Poles, 8% Ruthenians (Ukranians), 5% Croats, 4% Serbs, 4% Slovaks, 3% Slovenes, 3% Italians. In the far future I could see the main areas in read, in the image below, becoming apart of Germany not through force though. They Austrians wanted to join the Weimar Republic after WW1 but the allies stopped them.

There are so many different types of peoples that independence would have been inevitable, it's nature. On the outcome of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire splitting up I would expect the Habsburgs to at least hold on to German Austria, as that is where they historically came from going back to 1278. While holding onto Bohemia and Silesia as they are German after all.

In this scenario I am talking about German Austria becoming apart of the German Empire, there are many circumstances in which Austrian-Hungarian Empire could fall apart, if WW1 were averted, you have to use your imagination. War, uprisings, state collapse, etc. 

Finally think of Germany being 659,168.54 kilometers squared/254,506 square miles which would rank it as the 41st biggest country in the world. Currently it is the 63rd biggest and most important of all it would have comprised of four Kingdoms, six Grand Duchies, five Duchies, seven Principalities, three free Hanseatic cities and the imperial territory of Alsace-Lorraine. 

The Habsburgs Emperors of Austria openly admitted before the unification of Germany that they wanted to be included, but Bismarck shut the door on them, and maybe but this is a long shot but maybe the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and the Principality of Liechtenstein might have considered being apart of this grand form of German nation as well. 

It would have been a truly beautiful nation as it would had 25 different monarchies and three different types of governments. (Free cities, Imperial territory and Imperialistic nations)

Truly no words can describe it................
