Is there anywhere that wasn't or isn't fucked up at some point in history?! Humans are shitty. Ancient humans were even worst (very boring, smelly and short life)
I think that the roman intervention of Greece, led by Flaminio was totally justified, they did what they had to do. Nothing more, nothing less. Change my mind.
Yeah, they said "at some point" and the Roman genocide in Carthage might be considered fucked up I guess.
The third punic war for sure.
Edit: The fuck downvoted that? Cato the Elder in here?
NATO intervention in Yugoslav wars, too. And American involvement in World War 2.
Didn't they also colonize the region and over the next several centuries crucify a bunch of people? Pretty sure one of them even became a martyr for what went on to be the most destructive and enduring groups of people for all time.
Most countries act like sociopaths if they were held to individual human standards.
And just like a big group of sociopaths, the nice ones wouldn't last very long.
What about Ireland
A country with a chapter in its history named "The Troubles" might not be the best pick here.
I'm not Irish or British, but fow what I know I'd put a bit more blame on UK for the troubles. Don't invade/colonize a country, don't get troubles.
The troubles weren't just Irish people vs colonial oppressors though, there was a ton of sectarian violence between different Irish groups
If you mean Catholic Irish vs protestant Irish, it was in the end a byproduct of British occupation anyway
They had a lot of problems with child abuse. I mean, most countries had, but theirs was somewhat more prominent. One of the less psychotic countries though, I guess.
wow you really do think that
