Re: Are Imperial Pasts Unquestionably Objectionable?
Germany's imperial past only brought pain and losses to my people (and to those attacked), simple as that.
German imperialism did not only occur outside of her border, but also inside. Prussia more than one time occupied other German lands - afte the Deutsches Reich was (re-) founded in 1871 this no longer was possible - so colonies in Africa were established.
And, of course the German expansionism causing WW 2 made any sort of nationalism outlawed wordldwide.
