are the seat of arguably the most influential religion.

Actually, no.... Vatican City is the seat of arguably the world's most influential religion. Remember the Vatican's its own country and everything, so Italy can't steal the credit ^__^

But Islam bombs folk for religion, Catholics usually don't.

They would have if the crusades were modern (the way some Patriotic Muricans say it , it sounds like the war on terrorism is another crusade)

Illuminatee confirmed.

What counts as best? What is best?

Sumerians are the best. Second are Egyptians (ancient egyptians of course)

I voted UK cos they put themselves everywhere at once

Best histories should be a tie between Italy, Persia, China, Germany and Russia or perhaps Egypt or even south Africa, possibly Brazil. That's all tied for the 5th place.

Russia, South Africa or Brazil? can you tell me why

USA #1 at 23%

Germany takes 2nd at 18%

Britain 3rd at 13%

South Africa and Brazil? With only around 400 civilised years?

Iraq also has a lot of history, Assyria, Babylon, Greeks, Parthians, the Roman invasion, Muslim governments, invasion of Mongolian, wars Ottomans and Persians, wars with Britain and Turkey, Iraq against Britain, Iraq against Iran, against Livia, against Kaoltzih Europe and the United States, an invasion of the American , civil war, the Islamic state, Shiites against Sunnis fighting, even Iraq is an option

USA #1 at 25%

Bonjour!


I can't help it. I will feed the controversy!

Appolo you need to work your Napoleonic wars :) And the others : Go back to school!!!

If epic means war...

"According to historian Niall Ferguson, of the 125 major European wars fought since 1495, the French have participated in fifty – more than both Austria (forty-seven) and England (forty-three). And they’ve achieved an impressive batting average: out of 168 battles fought since 387 BC, they have won 109, lost forty-nine and drawn ten. [...] "

I'm too lazy. I let you read:

And not to say Niall Ferguson is British!


"the language of warfare is written in one language: French."




Bye bye :)

Just to add something. Playing WL, You have only one pick to do on the European map. Would you pick France?!! it's a miracle if we are still there. lol. On WL France would not exist.

US hits 33%

this whole poll is useless, as people from their own country would vote for theirs, and as 'Muricans are like half of the warlighters, the whole thing is wrong. Shall I remind you that we are rating the country/nation with the most epic history (your poll is also incomplete), USA with barely 250 years of history is clearly not the first ranked nation here.

My first choice would be China, 3000 years of history and badass battles, as well as Egypt, Persia or Greece, about India it is more complicated as it was not really a nation until modern times.
