OH YES!
The US has parked an army in Germany for 75 years!
I dunno, but could this have been a factor in the "no war between European powers" thing?
And when we say "war between the UK and Ireland... unthinkable" do we mean that no-one is going to bomb or shoot people in the UK or Ireland to attempt to achieve a political objective in the relationships between those two countries? That would be jolly nice if it were come to pass !
But please provide some citations if that's incorrect.
Know who was the biggest trading partner for France and Germany in 1914? It was each other.
This is exactly why the EU is not just an economic union, it's a political and judicial one as well. No on before WW1 would have even considered the idea that a French judge in a common European court could tell the German government what they can or can't do with respect to their own internal laws. Today, this is routine.
No, that's not what we mean.
War between the UK and the RoI, the actual states involved, is in fact pretty unthinkable.
Second, I think thats misleading. The Irish military did scenario analysis on this in case they were asked, and concluded it was hopeless, if that's what you mean.
