@NickOfForvania That's only partially true. Our military strength is also something to consider, and not just with power but also with our smarts.
For example in the Battle of Vimy Ridge in 1917, the German army had it so fortified, not even the French or English could beat them. Then in comes the Canadian 1st who first distracted the Germans with heavy fire as they cut and slipped through the barbed wire protecting the trenches and got the drop on them, capturing the Ridge for the Allies.
Because of how surprising they were, the Germans gave the Canadian Soldiers the appropriate nickname of "Shock Troopers".
Oh great...now I'm hoping Humon makes a comic about this! XD
