How does one quantify the bravery of one person/people over the bravery of another? You can't. There's no 'evidence' for this kind of thread..it becomes pure personal choice.

You can't determine who is the bravest. Americans will always say Americans, Turks will say Turks, French say French. You should have asked who the most warlike is.
Indeed, history is nothing more than a tableau of crimes and misfortunes.

Absolutely! You might as well ask "where do you come from".

This is for everyone, and I'm not singling anyone out. But when you start a thread ask your self, can we have a long and meaningful discussion on this topic?

I've always regarded bravery a synonym of stupidity.

Me I'm more interest who's the least brave, they're the people I'll meet up with next war.

Te suddenly retake of Grosny by 5000 Chechen fighters, they also took thousands of Russian Soldiers as hostages, so that they got a Peace agreement, and a de facto independant state.

I think the policemen in Iraq are brave... I admire how they continue trying, even though there are daily attacks against them.

Eventhough you might have heard the story before, doesn't make them any less brave. And what does the turks do, to make them so brave?

Oh, the bravest were of course the vikings
