      When I was in Canberra I went on a day tour around the city. As part of the tour we went to the Australian War Memorial, inside I talked to the tour guide a bit and jokingly asked if they had anything about the emu war. He actually went to a lady who was working there and asked.

      I almost couldn’t hold back my laughter. I’m sorry, Bob.

      At first, I simply assumed that it referred to the Finnish Civil War (any war with any connection to Russia is top of my mind these days), but then your comment made me realize that it’s more likely to be referring to some civil war that attracted a lot of international fighters, so it must be the Spanish Civil War.

    C’mon, so lame. I mean, I agree with the comments saying that being obsessed with a war is dumb, but obviously the right answer would be the Thirty Years War. Far more factions, more casus belli, more fights. Plus, it bolstered German nationalism, which led pretty directly to the Great War, which led to World War II, so those are technically part of its history.

    But maybe I’m biased, because my surname originated in the Huguenot diaspora?

    I wonder if anyone could analyze education about war (and fascism) and how it correlates with the downfall of the History Channel.

    It used to be wall to wall WW2 documentaries. And prior to streaming, sometimes there was nothing else on. So the channel was on A LOT while I was growing up.

    Then they started with the Ancient Aliens and Ice Road Truckers shit and eventually phased the actual history out entirely.

    Now it seems like the people who grew up during that period know nothing about this shit.

      At least with Pawn Stars they would loop the items back to history a lot of times. (Don’t actually remember if Pawn Stars was a history channel show.) But yeah, reality TV slop just filled so many channels.

    World Wars are for the war machine fanatics. That’s really where it starts for a lot of people.

    The American Civil War is mostly where you’ll find revisionists and southerners, but there are also true enthusiasts. There’s a lot of discussion in regards to the Mexican-American War priming the country for the Civil War, or discussion regarding the politics of the time and it’s impact on the course of the war.

    Falklands? I want to assume that if you’re British then you’d like to forget this ever happened. Although the war did result in the disposal of a dictator and brought a country into the folds of democracy even if it had to occur over what is essentially a colonial territory dispute.

    French and Indian War? I’d just say you enjoy colonial era history? Or you’re currently living in the area that it occurred.
