    As an aside France and the German Empire had extremely strong nobility, often times souvereign nobility in the case of the strange neither holy nor roman Empire. A small reason for the French Revolution were the nobility who tea-partied the...
  • Commented on The unspeakable truth
    German GSG 9 or BFE+ (Beweissicherungs und Festnahmeeinheit plus - brand spanking new, dec 2015[1]) units enter in response. Correction to the correction: Both GSG9 and BFE+ are units of the german federal police, under federal and somewhat limited jurisdiction...
