“I’m not anti Japan I’m just very pro Godzilla” bro 💀
The average Godzilla fan 😂
It's the added "Vote Godzilla" sign on China that killed me 😂 I can't even. Lol
Damn, you stole my comment XD
With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound he pulls the spinning high tension wires down
I always felt that Godzilla was a representation of USA it came from the sea and destroyed entire cities in nuclear fire and lets not forget USA is referred to as the sleeping dragon.
Italy:"I'm having trouble picking a side"
The rest:"WE KNOW"🤣
Lol
As an Italian, yeah...
Games of thrones was based on Italy history just saying...
Well to be fair, it isn’t really that Italy picked a side, it’s a bit more nuanced than that, but for a comedy skit yah that was funny. Lol
@@estebanfernandez4870 no wonder...
Damn, Zach was willing and able to find this lost historical footage
Craaazy 😂
He was even willing and able to give your comment a heart, truly an inspiration for us all.
The actual leaders post-ww2 were pretty interesting:
Germany, Italy and Japan were sat at the kiddie table, too afraid to even speak, the French were eager to take revenge on Germany and the Americans and British were very suspicious of Stalin, a new threat potentially worse than Hitler, who now controlled half of Europe and started making vague threats. China didn’t show up because their civil war had resumed and everyone else was exhausted from fighting.
I know he is quite a willing and able person
It seems we will never let Zach live the “willing and able” thing down
USA: “Hey Soviets, you want to race?”
Soviet Union: “What kind? Arms, space, or global domination?”
USA: “I was going to say race to WW3, but those sound like good side quests.”
Funny US being peace keeper. In reality should have switched US for UK. Brits did more to reform Japan. 😁
The liberal order makes its money by causing war, that's why they hate the idea of Trump.
lol
This is my favorite comment of all time
@@hackman669Your country failed in both world wars until Uncle Sam came and saved your ass both times. Your country can barely maintain its own safety let alone the worlds.
Fun fact, a guy working at the German embassy in Nanking called Hitler to complain to him that the baby thing was messed up
Probably he didn’t know about the whole concentration camp thing, and thought they were the good guys:)
(Maybe they weren’t even built yet at that time).
I know many Germans didn’t know about all the war crimes, and felt really embarrassed when they learnt about it.
@@juzoli Even the nazis were shocked and disturbed by the Japanese atrocities tbh
And I mean the high ranking ones
@theonebman
Yeah…
If any of you are strong of stomach read up about unit 731
@@theonebman7581 It's a good thing to use the Nazis agreeing with you as proof of your point.
Yeah, imperial Japan gave the Nazis a run for their money in the whole “how evil can humans be” department. We just don’t talk about it as much for some reason. But they were every bit as bad as the nazis if not worse
Funnily enough it was France who was most "no more germany" after the war. Until everyone else stepped in and said "no, two wrongs dont make a right"
Why am I not surprised
Yeah, when you add all the Franco-German rivalry to the Debacle, France was EXTREMELY mad at Germany.
Similar to the Treaty of Versailles after WW1. France wanted the harshest terms, the USA wanted the least harsh terms and the UK were somewhere in between.
@@BananaWasTaken Yeah, after 4 years of grueling fights taking place directly on French soil while the UK and US saw none of the fighting, you can pretty clearly see why France was so angry at Germany.
The top 1% of Germany was in favor of "no more Germany" but the people were still very much German first and foremost, hell it even took until the mid-50s before the Germans on average saw Hitler as being a bad leader.
US: "Hey Japan, sorry about those nukes, they're pretty barbaric."
Japan: "It's alright America."
China: "They caught babies with bayonets, had competitions who could behead the most civilians, and treated every female above the age of 8 as "comfort" women.
US: "...I'm sure I had another bomb lying around here somewhere."
US Scientists: "So, the wedge didn't work, let's try a screwdriver on that thing..."
Bold of you to assume the U.S would care about that stuff.
@@sowergamingbro5885We clearly don't, which is why you always hear about it on the news just how much that happens in the US... Oh wait it never happens. Weird
@@sawmill035 we be acting like they didn't take the data from the unit 731 experiments and let the perpetrators live Scott free
"My Lai massacre" the US caught babies and pregnant women with bayonets but of course you haven't ever heard about that huh
Japan: Nukes are cheating…
America: Nuh uh!
Japan:the hell you mean Nuh uh
@@markrodriguez3026 nuh stands for sun, and uh stands for an other sun, just for to be sure
It’s funny because this kind of attitude persists every single time there is a technological development in a war
Strap bombs to a plane and drop them on cities? NO! That’s cheating!
Use mustard gas to clear trenches? That’s foul play!
Use shotguns in trenches? That’s illegal! Ban the shotgun!
Send cavalry to hide in a bush and then attack when the enemy least expects it? That’s dishonorable!
Figure out that if you use a curved stick and some string, you can shoot arrows that fly fast and far? BAN THIS GUY FOR HACKING!
It’s a tale as old as time
How to win every war:
1. Nobody is allowed to steal
2. Copy right war
USA " Soviets don't steal"
USSR " okay you caught me"
@@no_name4796oops, not dropping 2 suns in a row
Just checked the "baby thing", i didnt even know that was a thing. Humanity really is cruel af
now search up the Nanjing massacre
Now search up Unit 731.
@@DrakusLuthosIf you don't want to be able to sleep at night ever again ☣️☠️
And what’s disappointing, is that Japan mostly denies and do not teach its people of all of its horrific war crimes. Unlike Germany.
Uuuuh what keyword should i use to check the babies thing
"It's okay France, you are safe now."
"But Germany looks so mad at me!"
🤣🤣🤣
Meanwhile Germany: *Minding it's own business.*
@@GiovannaIwishyou meanwhile Germany: 20% occupied by the French

- Usa: (with 20 fake passeports and Us ID and flight ticket to south america, 20 german men in nazi uniform behind, all of them with a dossier saying "classified soviet information") Nooo, do you want a smoothie ?
Zach giving Japan too much credit by having them acknowledge what they did XD
They were probably scared we were hiding a 3rd bomb if they didn't fess up
@@claptrap4084that’s the funny part, they never fessed up!
The "VOTE GODZILLA" patch that China adds BROKE me 😂
Godzilla= nukes post WW2. 😀
Italy "I have trouble picking a side"
Everyone else at the table "We know"
best joke of the video
Funny how Italy switched sides during and after WW2 😁
@@hackman669and were kinda indecisive about picking side in ww1
meanwhile Spain and Greece : Nothing to see here ..... we didn't had or will have some kind of tyrant fascist regime led by the army, ...... Nice weather isn't it ?
As an Italian I can tell you, that the entente and allies were far better bros than the triple alliance and axis.
Joke at the end killed bro. Love these country meeting videos
The Italy one? It actually flew right over my head. Care to explain it to me?
@@Drag0nvil “I can’t pick a side”
The old joke is that Italy kept changing sides during the world wars.
Before WW1 Italy had a defensive pact with Austria, and Germany, but since Austria started it, they had no reason to help them, and instead sided with the entente.
During WW2 the Italian government voted out Mussolini and switched sides after the Allies invaded.
@@azlanadil3646 yes, but what does it means for the menu eating context? was it something like "i can't pick a size", but said bad thus making it seem "i can't pick a side" or what?
@@no_name4796a side like a side dish, example: fries usually come as a side dish for your hamburger
@@azlanadil3646 O, Only real thing I know of is the whole soft underbelly of Europe thing. So I thoughts boiled socks, then instead of hearing side I heard size and tried to make sense outa that. 😬
As a history nerd, I'm so so happy about the recent content. Inventing math, Washington and Lincoln, now whole countries dropping hilariously specific references, omg this is so much fun.
that last bit was perfect man, the whole thing was funny but that last "We Know" had me rolling
“EVERYBODY HIT THE DECK!”, I am officially deceased
Can you explain the reference?
@@decreasing_entropy3003 The x-ray video with doctors if they were dentists
@@serpent2776 Mind elaborating?
@@decreasing_entropy3003 It's a joke from a different one of Zach's videos. The dentist is all about how safe X-rays are but when it's time to use one... well "EVERYBODY HIT THE DECK!".
Rewatch that part with subtitles 😂
3:21 “I have an idea”
“You’re ideas lead to World Wars. So we’re not doing that anymore”😂😂😂😂
And men all over world learned, that if they skrew up at work at home, they'd be out of their responsibilaty. 😂
but it was austria :(
@@teodorrada9669Austria started WW2?
@@kh6853 austria started ww1 and hitler was from austria, also the art school in Vienna refused him
Israel with the vibes
"Nahh he's just a roommate i can kick him out"
The fact you know who he's referring to shows how much of a comedic genius this guy is😂😂
Well, it's not a secret that Palestine exists...
But the joke was good
I think everyone and their inborn kids know that Palestine and Israel are right next to each other
tbh I think even people living under rocks know about the whole situation by now,
@@Xeem_Paddoes it though was never a independent state there's no evidence it ever actually existed before the Romans changed the name from judea when conquering the Jewish territory shit even the Quran mentions Israel without mentioning Palestine
I don't know about it
I was waiting for the Italy joke and was not disappointed when he delivered it.
1:00: "Fun" fact, this actually happened. And yes, there are photos.
Oh yea, also, the special Japanese divisions experimenting on Chinese. Unit 731. Testing stuff like "how much pressure can a human survive before death". A lot of different experiments. A lot of deaths. Later said "scientists" found their places in companies of Japan and USA.
and that's not even the worst they did. Zach let them off easy in this vid (though he didn't even really adress Germany's cruelties, so maybe not)
@@lebrosoprotosszerg8294Yeah, but everyone knows what Germany did, Japan is “underrated” in this regard.
@@juzoliI would argue that the post war japanese government's refusal to acknowledge these crimes and claim them as hoax, while chucking the reason of their invasion was 'for oil just like what America today' makes them worse than the nazis.
Had a conversation with a japanese friend and all she knew about the war was 'That was for oil, right?' Her words.
I know it’s a horrifying fact
"I'm having trouble picking a side" was the best joke ever.
The roommate joke
Dark and risky 😅😅
Love it
every history class should have to watch this at the beginning of the ww2 segment!
Lot of the jokes can only be understood by someone who already know WW2 history, so maybe it would be better at the end of the history class, as a fun conclusion.
@leo-paulgrain3832 good point. But i also think it might encourage interest in learning about the things he alludes to.
@@mjolnir3309 watch before learning WW2 and after
Do any history fans realize how much China 🇨🇳 is still reeling from WW2 in our time? After the war China starts creating nukes and building up military. Eventually makes allies with USSR and later Russia. Currently it builds up navy and space program to rival US and Allied forces.
It tells a very Americanised side of the story. Britain did have a part in destroying Germany. France was maybe the most anti-Germany. China was having a civil war. It has a meaningless phrase in modern events in Israel with near nothing to do with the subject matter of the video.
"we didn't even ask for an encore" got me, I didn't expect it
While it missed a lot of the finer details of history, this gives a VERY accurate representation of the aftermath years leading to the Cold War. In less than 5 minutes. With humor.
While I don't think this would be a "we should teach our kids using this medium" kind of angle, I think it's a good way to see if they understand the core points.
broski...
It's a comedy video, not a teaching video for lazy teachers
wtf?
Actually it is a good teaching tool. The only thing is, it should not be used *alone*. Like use this to introduce the topics and then expand the knowledge from there.
Is it though... I'm pretty sure the Berlin wall was Russia's idea, not Germany's, if I remember my history correctly.
1:10 Germany could say “that was the old leadership”, but in Japan? The leadership at the top stayed the same, they just replaced the next level down.
The allies or at least, the US saw that to be necessary. At least MacArthur put the emperor in his place just by standing next to him
@@thedemonofrazgriz3602 Then there was no reason to drop the bombs, as the US knew that the Japanese were ready to surrender on the sole condition that emperor not be deposed. But the US wanted an unconditional surrender, so we dropped the two bombs anyway.
@@tillettman Not as much as you want to think. They did not "know" if they would. There was the possibility they might have, but many high-ranking Japanese officials wanted to continue fighting even after the US invaded. If the nukes were not dropped, and Japan continued fighting, millions would die from conventional bombing, as well as a conventional invasion by Soviet and American forces. The bombs alone did not cause the Japanese to surrender, but it was the final "tie-breaker" on whether they should or not, with America ready to invade and Soviet forces baring down on them from the west. If the bombs had not been dropped, Japan would have taken more time to surrender, which at that point could have meant at least a few conventional bombing raids would have leveled some Japanese cities, potentially killing as many or more people as the bombs. So, no, they did not know for certain, and if Japan had fought on for even another month, there would have been regular bombing raids on Japanese cities, such as the US did with Tokyo.
@@dawsonreum8096Actually you could argue that the Soviets declaring war was what actually caused them to surrender so the bombs were useless and also even if that is untrue why use them on civilians?
@@kakahass8845 Iirc the bombs were partially also a message to a certain soviet union that had been doing a little less liberating and a little more occupying
The Italy joke at the end truly is the cherry on top cause they were more indecisive then a girl trying to figure out where they want to go for take out/dinner
Easily one of your best written skits to date, keep up the great work Zacharoni
Your videos just keep getting better and better
This is now my favorite Zach Star video. I love it.
At least this lead to the invention of instant ramen saving college students ever were
Clearly Zach picks up his kettle bells instead of a happy meal.
Damn bro, those guns tho.
This needs a continuation!
Zach makes great videos like this one
Speaking of the World, perhaps you're both willing and able to tackle another topic that has gripped the world... incoherent shoe sizes. Like a size 12 here isn't a size 12 there. EUR size goes up while US size goes down wtf. Good luck with UK sizes. There's a 12D and 12E no 12C unfortunately but it's mass hysteria trying to buy shoes online took me 6 tries ... for then Amazon to win with an 11.5Wide. It's just not right. bad segue?
How about women's pant sizes while we're on the subject. There are at least 3 different types in stores here, and it can be difficult to figure it out.
Or children's shoe sizes... the numbers run backward from adult sizes.
Fashion is fucked up
Piercing sizes go down too
@@SugarandSarcasm Also womens shoes are different than a man shoe size for the same number so that doesn't make sense either. Also there's unisex size, which takes either the womans or mens' size depending on the company. I have a Converse pair that are sold under womens unisex mens UK size 12 womens 14 ...huh? Yeah, child shoes have their own system. Pants and shoes, the Weird Wild West of clothing standards that never made up its mind. This is driving the world insane
When I order shoes I know I have to buy 47 1/3 EUR, 12.5 UK and 12 US :D Those are all the same sizes, atleast for adidas which is what I wear mostly. Also it's about the manufacturer, different company different sizes. I know for a fact that nike and adidas have different sizes, You buy one shoe of each that are 47 EUR and they will be noticeably different
You said able and willing wrong
That was solid gold!
3:12 uh, Zach. You might want to cut that part or change it slightly, unless you want your video region locked. Because it is literally illegal to do that gesture in Germany now. A quick "Well, that happened" would probably have a similar impact for the pacing and joke, but much less impact on your video.
the football incident....
You can’t edit a already uploaded video
Bei der Regierung wird das bald der neue Pflichtgruß.😅
Honestly, you just gotta wonder how the heck *that* first meeting post-WWII went down. xD
US: Hey Soviets did you check out our fancy new bomb we used
SU: Yea, seems pretty destructive.
US: dw we don't want to use it on you
SU: mhm yea that's good... (nervously jumpstarts nuclear program)
Not mentioning Poland is so damn historically accurate 💀
Thank you, Zack!
The "hit the deck" was awesome, and Italy's bit was freaking hilarious 😂 Thanks for this!
One of your funniest videos! You should do more like these
Love from France, and thank you for all your funny videos
Love your content keep up the great work
As a south korean the korean section was so funny and real lol
Damn every bit hits hard
Please make this a recurring subseries cause this is brilliant
2:49 My "reactions" folder is almost entirely Zach Star screenshots.
Japan: "Those nuclear bombs were crazy."
U.S.A.: "Eh-heh... yeah..."
Soviet Union: "No, no, no. I see potential in that idea."
The Nanjing massacre was no joke. It makes me literally uncomfortable thinking about it. The night I first started researching it, I just laid in bed for like 2 hours trying to understand what in the fuck would have to happen to someone to make them, not only willing to do such fucking vile acts to other humans, but to do it with glee and revel in it. And how could there be 150,000 of that person all in the same place at the same time?
I eventually found the answer and I didn’t like it one bit.
I read a fictional book once with a slaughter depiction very clearly inspired from those events. Even having researched intensely about it before made me sick for hours. Knowing it was real actually made it worse.
And damn did I seek an answer, too.
France learnt thier mistake of treating Germany after WW1
the in sync we know got me 😂😂😂
Funny, i really enjoy your comedy!
Poland: we’re finally free
Soviets: more like under new management
How can something be so accurate and so funny at the same time? Am I going to hell now? =D
What did I just watch? He spared no one.
Just brutal.
as always, a brilliant skit.
i love you bro
you inspire me to become an engineer.
I hope this series continues
"that was the old leadership..." the Japanese leadership post-WW2 was literally the same group of war criminals that killed over 40 million people in Asia. An Class War criminal that enslaved millions of Chinese and Koreans in Manchuria became the Prime Minister of Japan in 1957, Nobusuke Kishi. His grandson Shinzo Abe also was Prime Minister of Japan.

And hungary laughed alongside them
I've heard some messed up stuff about Imperial Japan, but wow, that's some really messed up stuff.
That's not even the most messed up stuff...
Unrealistic! japan would never acknowledge their warcrines during ww2.
But seriously this video was good.
This is a masterpiece
Thanks for including Ireland
China just chose not to mention unit 731
and everybody chose to blame germany instead of austria, again.
Chanukah did come early this year, so props to ya.
Japan not knowing what Jesus said is the most unintentional accurate thing in this entire video, seeing as Japan banned missionaries from Europe and believed in Shintoism
2:30 pick the bottom half. PICK THE BOTTOM HALF
When Israel showed up I was expecting half of them to say “who the fuck are you?” 💀
He should have said after the come together thing "Like the babies... and bayonets!"
Zack is not only able but willing to trigger WW3.
I love the France “hit the deck!”
"Everybody hit the deck!" 😂💀
Germany didn’t build the wall, the USSR did lol.
No, our than communist gouvernment in East Germany let it build on their own decision. Before finalizing, there were some informal consultations with the other Warsaw Pact members, but plans and material were already prepared - to much Eastern Germans, 3.5 millions, had left East Germany via West-Berlin to West Germany, it was a massive brain drain for East Germany and a pronlemativ PR for the communist gouvernment obviously.
Golden comedy. Just perfect
This is like an episode of Hetalia.
30 seconds in and im already gaping omg "maybe if you picked up a textbook instead of a happy meal you'd know too! (:"
As and Italian, the final was so unespected and perfect. Italy was always like that lol
Had the biggest smile watching this lol.
I was hoping for Poland but again really good skit 😊
Amazing Vid!
that's one of the best ending jokes in all of your sketches
Italy at the end got me.
i saw the thumbnail and im like nah i got to watch this
When I was in the army, we were served this stale bread made into toast with some smudge that looked (and tasted) like someone wiped their ass with it.
Dead ass, the brits loved it. I invited a brit to my apartment once and a simple soup I made (with seasonings) was the best thing he ever tasted. ITS CALLED PARSLEY, THOMAS!
Watched 3 videos about Washington and Lincoln series now I'm here lol
That ending line was HILARIOUS!
Funny and true!
4:27 Wonderful Choice Ireland

Progress would have kept stallin’ under stalin……
Get it?

Ok I’ll leave
i love the passive aggression🤣🤣🤣
“He’s my roommate, I can just kick him out” has to be the most insane way I’ve heard someone simplify the conflict in Palestine.
Yes but it's not a very accurate way though
@@harel9727yeah it is, have you heard of the nakba, or Israel pushing 1.5 million Palestinians into Gaza in 20 years
If anything, that line would go to the Arabs in 1948.
