Justice League: The Cat and the Canary

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

Offhand I can't remember when a major country surrendered at a time like Germany did in WW1 since now.
Soviet Union.

Japan basically averted an overpowered confrontation when Commodore Perry went out there at the behest American institution and its economic interests.
Should have clarified since WW1. Plenty of powers before that war surrendered or ended the war before it really got out of hand.

Technically Russia surrender predates the Germany surrender, but yeah not like there have been many wars since then where a major power would be in a position to surrender anyway.
Japan in WW2?

Soviet Union folded since then. In ww1 Russia was on our side. Soviet Union wasn’t a thing yet.

Their cities were leveled. Factories destroyed. Complete destruction of their Navy, had no fuel for the remaining ships. Experienced pilots for planes they could put up in the air was non existent.

Sure there was no invasion of the main Japanese islands. But they were truly decimated as a military.

Compare that to Germany at the end of WW1. Their infrastructure was still intact, they still had a formidable army though tired and hungry and still had a Navy though they mutinied against final suicide run at the Grand Fleet. Yes the country was starving and had dwindling resources.

Germany scuttled their Navy at Scapa Flow as a final fuck you to the British. So there is that.
I got nothing to say here.

They were also still managing to occupy a big piece of China (well, the lines and points) and most of South East Asia. They also ended the war with basically the same government they started with, unlike the Imperial Germans.

That was after the war ended. The Kaiser was tossed out before WW1 concluded.

Alright then how about the founders of McDonalds? They had a bunch of stores before the guy played by Michael Keaton swindled it out from under them.

No not entirely.

The Emperor had to renounce his godhood, make rounds to the public to basically show it. It became democracy.
