Perhaps your minor in history didn't cover The Great War, the
Napoleonic Wars, or the Seven Year's War.

Look those up and then come back and discuss France's place in
world history.

My master's in History and I will be waiting.

Well Rome used to rule the known world. It hasn't translated
well into modern military or even diplomatic power for Italy.

Yes, but they terrific coffee and very reasonably priced high
quality
restaurants. Not to mention Alfa Romeos and the ability to look
cool even when riding a motor scooter.

What else could you want?

Bertie

Beer

Beer in Italy, not so good..

Bertie

Wine, however, is superb.

Yeah, I love Italy. I get there a good bit and never tire of it.
Though the weather around Milan is a bit depressing this time of
year. And talk about history! It's everywhere..

Bertie

Yes, but do you have a minor in history? If not, hush yersef.

Hey, I watched Mr Peabody and Sherman... I is edjahmuhcated.

Bertie

Rocky and Bullwinkle + Schoolhouse Rock any minor, I say.
