  1. Eh, let them. They don’t have much in their recent history to be proud of. Everyone knows that Germanic people originated in Scandinavia anyway.

  2. Germany spans from Cape Town to Arkhangelsk, and from Porto to Valdivostock

    I thought it was a well known fact

  3. They follow the official Rundschreiben AFVBADI Wzb355 (Automatisches föderales Verfahren zur Bestätigung, dass alles deutsch ist Nmr. Wzb355.)

    Examples:

    * Anything with a German sounding name even if the guy lives in Mongolia and family been there for 4 generations ->>> “Oughan Grossmeyerghoul, inventor of the automatic yak milking machine is German !”
    * Anything a German was even remotely involved in… ->>> “Helmut Von Gelbezähne developed the 32nd bristle of the 1st prototype of a modern toothbrush. The Toothbrush is a German invention!”
    * Something French…->>> “Frank (even if the guy is from Martinique…), German tribe, thus German! Also French tank reverse gears AchAhahahaha…”
    * Something English..->>> “Saxon, German tribe, therefore German ! Also Brexit Brexit Achahahahahaha…”
    * ect…

    They call it efficiency.

  4. That’s the exact face we Poles have talking about East Germanics. On the one side they were cool and it looks like not all of them left to rob the Roman Empire, what makes them also our ancestors (totally novelty for us since the first medieval Polish Chronicles), on the other hand they were Germanics.

  5. Nobody:

    Other germanic groups making hundrets times more memes about not beeing german, than germans claiming them beeing german:

  6. Poland? Civilized Discussion? Most poles are hardly civilized, nor capable of speech… They are eastoids after all.

  7. Was ist des Deutschen Vaterland?
    So nenne endlich mir das Land!
    So weit die deutsche Zunge klingt
    und Gott im Himmel Lieder singt,
    das soll es sein!
    das, wackrer Deutscher, nenne dein!
    das nenne dein!

  8. To be fair, that is mostly a translation problem. Because in English it’s Germanic people and Germans, in our Language it’s Deutsche und Germanen.

    So the idea is that certain groups like Austrians are Deutsche as well when such stuff is brought up, not about Germanic people.

  9. You all know ‘shitamericanssay’ – they belittle barry and say things like ‘this app is american’ etc. I feel that many germans show the same hubris and arrogance when they talk about switzerland. Things like many alemannic swiss people not identifying as ‘germans’ and being the same ‘people’ are absolutely unthinkable for them

  10. Reminds me of a certain other country to the East which claims all of its direct neighbors are actually them, just brainwashed by CIA.

  11. The Swiss for example do not exist outside of a political entity. Germans had bonds long before Germany was a thing through culture and language, something the Swiss still don’t have. Our people also extend far beyond the borders of any German nation, reaching Romania, France, the Netherlands, Italy, Denmark and large parts of Poland example. It is what it is.

  12. It’s even worse with Turks and Turkic. The Turks think they’re the preeminent Turkics when in fact they’re basically Arabs today and are the least Turkic of all people on the planet lmao.

  13. Pretty much the same thing when it comes to Turkic people and Turkish people, except it happens unironically😞.

  14. This is highly inaccurate, as it tries to suggest other nations would gladly confer with the f*nch
