I would love to see a world where ww1 (and thus in follow up ww2) would not have happened. So many things in our daily lives have been influenced by the world wars.

Id like to imagine Germany would've become a superstate before it happened in our lifetime. Focusing on industrialization and cooperation with other nations around it to improve the products at the time.

I think industrialized warfare was inevitable.

Fair but so many things we have today come from those 2 wars. So without them the world would be really different.

I agree with that too. I'm just saying if Franz hadn't been assassinated, something else would have set someone else off to start an industrial war.
