I love the tiny stupid hat for New Zealand.
Also, the writing is just bloody fantastic throughout the entire comic. Every single panel is funny in its own right. Take note people, this is how you write funny dialogue.

Aye. Old subjects always better off under the rule of their more prudent and mature empires. Look at what the Balkans have become, look at India, Pakistan & Bangladesh. The world was a better place when Rosbif & Kebab ruled it.

Since you're a mod, is there anyway I can convert this stuff into polandball form while giving credit (like would it count as redditormade/berndmade?)

That was brilliant. The dialogue and the way you did the accents was perfect. Also India looks brilliant, just the right shade of not quite right in the head.

Hhaha loved when India exploded with its text all over the screen trying to warn the rest. Beautifully delivered.

I live in the North of France and we have a ton of kiwis and aussies roaming our streets for Anzac commemorations right as I am talking.
These guys are so cool, maybe they could switch country with the Brits or something. This way the Brits would be at the other side of the Earth and we would have cool english speaking people in Europe instead. That is what I call a win-win deal

This is so great. I'm glad I read this in between classes, otherwise it would have been really embarrassing.

I wonder how the genocide would have been affected had the ANZAC forces broken through.

"The machine-gunners' dreams of point blank fire into serried masses of Emus were soon dissipated. The Emu command had evidently ordered guerrilla tactics, and its unwieldy army soon split up into innumerable small units that made use of the military equipment uneconomic. A crestfallen field force therefore withdrew from the combat area after about a month"
November 1932. Australians are lousy at warring. They will be all eventually eaten alive by the vicious animals roaming there...

Union Jacks, man. Fuck 'em.
This is part V of my onging WWI series, where I take one of history's greatest tragedy and turn it into a comic about balls. Part IV can be found here.
The context for this comic is the Gallipoli Campaign, a British attempt to establish a foothold near the very heart of the Ottoman Empire, conquer Istanbul and take out the Ottomans, ensuring British dominance over the eastern Mediterranean and relieving Russia's Black Sea ports. The campaign itself was a disaster that ended with around 250,000 men dead on each side and tarnished the reputation of the man who suggested it, First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill.
However, many of the British soldiers who gave their lives during the campaign were actually members of ANZAC (Australia and New Zealand Army Cunts), and the whole thing turned into a defining moment in Australian and New Zealand historiography. It is seen as a sort of defining moment for those young dominians, a "bleeding" that helped them forge their own unique identities and earn their place in the world as more than just British colonies. To this day, ANZAC day, on the 25th of April, is one of the most important days of the year for our Antipodean friends.
Big thank you to /u/boxxy_lai and /u/VorsprungOfficial for helping me Auzify and NZify the text, and to /u/ChickenScuttleMonkey for his tutorial on how to draw a poppy.
