Conor mcgregor quotes. The most aggressive people in the world We Irish are only stronger than us

The Ural court is the most corrupt court in the world. Remember, at Uralkhimmash, on the night after its capture, both Fedulev and the side of the ousted director all waved a set of conflicting court decisions at each other? And so it was. They showed each other not fakes.

The Russians are the most aggressive people in the world. How else could the largest territory in the world appear? I am not in a position to draw a comparison with the Zulus, but I think that they would not be very good if they lived near us. This statement may cause you a sharp protest - after all, Russians love to talk about themselves, how kind, meek and fluffy we are. However, the facts say otherwise. This feeling of aggression is especially acute when returning home from a foreign trip, especially from a Buddhist country. In many countries you can walk through a crowd of young people and not feel harassed, and in most countries it would never occur to anyone to be afraid of the police. In the Republic of Sri Lanka, the traffic is absolutely crazy, but I have not seen any showdowns or accidents. It is also worth remembering that we have managed to create one of the most brutal states in the world.
On Radio C, Anna Romanova presented the results of a survey of foreigners who have lived in our country for at least two years. To the question: “What do you dislike most about Russia?”, The answer turned out to be: Teenagers, policemen, drivers.

Aggression is primarily aimed at their own (Vladimir Tarasov owns the phrase: Russians are a nation with increased intraspecific aggression). We are all one family, but very quarrelsome. The simplest and clearest way to get rid of illusions is to watch the traffic, look at the dominant driving style. We have approximately 30,000 deaths in road accidents every year (13,000 deaths in Afghanistan during the entire period of hostilities), for comparison - in France 300 people a year. Moreover, the better the roads, the more people die. Of course, one can blame the authorities, non-Christians and Masons for everything here, but rather this is a style of attitude towards oneself and others.

Somehow I came across an interesting, though amateurish, study of the behavior of our drivers on the road. Approximately 40% of drivers are law-abiding. 30% break the rules, but they are sane, you can talk to them, you can convince them. Another 30% are scumbags, nothing affects them, it is impossible to agree with them.
It seems to me that this ratio exists not only when driving a car. If you are driving down a one-way street and a car is moving toward you, try saying something to the driver.

Traces of aggression appear both in daily reports and in statistics. In Russia, 7,000 children per year die from assault by drunken and mentally unbalanced parents. And hundreds of thousands of children run away from their families. Every year, 15,000 women die from family fights with men. And 4000 men are killed by women in such fights.
The level of violence in Russia, according to the rating of the World Health Organization, was the highest among the 53 countries in which the study was conducted. In our country, 15.85 out of 100,000 young people die as a result of murders. At the same time, almost half of all those who died in Russia (in the age group from 10 to 29 years old) died from stab wounds. In second place is Albania - 11.2 per 100,000 people. On the third - Kazakhstan - 10.66 per 100 thousand inhabitants. The lowest death rate among adolescents and young people from violent causes is in Germany - 0.47 per 100 thousand inhabitants, Armenia - 0.5 and Austria - 0.54. This is stated in the report "On the prevention of violence and crime associated with knives among adolescents and young people", prepared by the WHO Regional Office for Europe. The authors of the study believe that interpersonal conflicts most often become the reason for stabbing. It is noted that 9 out of 10 murders registered in Europe occur in the Russian Federation. http://news.mail.ru/incident/4474879/

Faced with a refusal or a ban, a significant part of Russians do not control themselves and are capable of anything. Getting involved in a showdown, you should always remember about the likelihood that the opponent will get a weapon.

A stowaway who jumped over a turnstile at Moscow's Yaroslavsky railway station wounded an employee of a private security company who was trying to detain him.
“At the moment of detention, the stowaway took out a traumatic pistol and opened fire to kill. As a result, an employee of the private security company, born in 1978, received a dangerous wound in the chest and was hospitalized, ”the attacker was detained by police officers who came to the rescue, he turned out to be a 32-year-old resident of the Moscow region.

“In the Moscow subway car, a quarrel arose between two groups of young people, during which a girl pulled out a knife and wounded four passengers - three men and one woman. The girl and her companion were detained, now they are in the police station, where they are being investigated and the issue of initiating a criminal case is being decided,” the representative of the Central Internal Affairs Directorate noted.

According to a source in law enforcement agencies in Moscow, on Saturday morning on the Garden Ring near the Kursk railway station, a traffic police officer stopped a foreign car to check documents, the driver of which was with obvious signs of intoxication. “The man refused to undergo a medical examination and did not allow the traffic police officer to draw up a protocol on an administrative offense. After that, he hit the traffic inspector several times in the face, but was detained by the policeman's colleagues,” the source said. The offender was taken to the Tagansky police station. The source also said that the detainee had documents for an FSB officer with him.

Aggression is not only direct violence, aggression is also manifested in the categorical inability to negotiate among themselves, preventing each other from developing normally.
There are five city English-language newspapers in New York, of which one NYT is in fact a national newspaper. At the same time, there are about 20 low-level Russian-language newspapers in the city. (Let me not compare the number of English- and Russian-speaking residents of the metropolis). In the nineties, eight television studios were organized and fought for the advertising budget in the Sverdlovsk region, at a time when this budget was actually enough for the normal operation of two or three studios.

A common practice in the country is when an employee, leaving the company, takes the customer base with him, and the manager who you instructed to create the enterprise creates a similar one nearby. Most Russians seek not to expand and continue what they have already started, but to recreate their own, making the same mistakes, stepping on the same rake.
The basis of aggression is our attitude towards each other. A foreign journalist who has worked in Russia for a long time says: “In Russia, I never ask a person’s opinion about colleagues.” Abroad, we do not rejoice in meeting our fellow citizens and avoid such meetings, because we want to take a break from the manner of communication adopted at home. You can easily be declared a bastard and a bastard simply on the basis of your job title or place of work.
The policeman is like a grandmother waiting for the train. - So you have a basket full of grebes. You'll be poisoned! - No, son, do not be afraid, I'm for sale! Do you think I'm talking? In the Sverdlovsk region there is the concept of "Sumziki" - red-headed (as the boletus mushrooms are called in the Urals), collected on the dumps of the Sredneuralsky copper smelter for sale, they are never wormy.

An aggressive style of behavior is inherent in all sectors of society. Here is the text of the announcement at the entrance to the territory where the construction of an Orthodox church is underway: “For stupid and for cool people - parking is prohibited here - entry to the construction site!”. Aggression - all cases when a person does what is convenient for him, not caring about the convenience and safety of others: talking on the phone while driving, trying to skip the line.

The opposition is even more aggressive than the authorities - the hungry, we must fight our way through. She willingly spreads any unverified information, whipping up passions.

Our foreign policy is a continuation of our features. Russia is constantly aimed at expansion and capture, being a constant source of tension in the world. We constantly oppose ourselves to the whole world and constantly try to measure our biceps. Another thing is that blaming us for this is the same as blaming a cat for catching mice - this is our purpose.

Of course, constantly living in such conditions, the people have developed some mechanisms to mitigate the problem. If in the Caucasus blood feud is the way to restrain aggression, then in Russia it is complete forgiveness. It would seem that it is impossible to forgive a person in any case, but at some point they forgive and everything stops. Another well-known mechanism is addressing by name and patronymic. In this case, two more people are invisibly present during communication, helping to keep the situation within limits.

In the history of any nation there are periods of wars and expansions. At the same time, one can single out the most warlike peoples of the world, for whom cruelty and militancy have become an integral part of their culture. Entire generations of warriors grew up, for whom battles became the main meaning of their lives. About the most famous tribes from this list - in this article.

Maori

Maori can be attributed to the most warlike peoples of the world. This is a tribe that lived in New Zealand. Its name in literal translation means "ordinary", but in reality, of course, there is nothing ordinary in them. One of the first Europeans to meet the Maori was Charles Darwin. This happened during his journey on the ship "Beagle". An English scholar emphasized their unprecedented cruelty, which was especially pronounced in relation to the British and white people in general. Maori had to repeatedly fight with them for their territories.

It is believed that the Maori are autochthonous. Their ancestors arrived on the island about two thousand years ago from East Polynesia. Until the British reached New Zealand in the middle of the 19th century, the Maori had no serious rivals at all. Only from time to time there were internecine wars with neighboring tribes.

During these centuries, traditions and customs were formed, which then became characteristic of most Polynesian tribes. They are inherent in the most warlike peoples of the world. So, the heads of the prisoners were cut off, and the bodies were completely eaten. There was a way to take away the strength of the enemy. By the way, the Maori participated in two world wars, unlike the rest of the Australian Aborigines.

Moreover, during the Second World War, their representatives insisted that their own battalion be formed. There is a remarkable fact about the First World War. During one of the battles, they drove the enemy away only by performing their battle dance called haku. This happened during the offensive operation on the Gallipoli Peninsula. The dance was traditionally accompanied by terrible grimaces and warlike cries, which simply discouraged the enemy, giving the Maori a significant advantage. Therefore, it is safe to call the Maori one of the most warlike peoples of the world in history.

Gurkha

Another fighting people, who also sided with Great Britain in many wars, are the Nepalese Gurkhas. They received the definition of one of the most warlike peoples in the world back in the days when their country remained a British colony.

According to the British themselves, who had to fight a lot with the Gurkhas, in battle they were distinguished by unprecedented courage, aggressiveness, physical strength, self-sufficiency, and also the ability to lower the pain threshold. Even the British army had to surrender under the pressure of the Gurkhas, armed with knives alone. As early as 1815, a full-scale campaign was launched to recruit volunteers from among the Gurkhas into the ranks of the British army. Quickly enough, they won the glory of the best soldiers in the world.

Gurkhas participated in the First and Second World Wars, the suppression of the Sikh uprising, the war in Afghanistan, as well as in the conflict between Great Britain and Argentina over the Falkland Islands. And today the Gurkhas remain among the elite fighters of the English army. Moreover, the competition for getting into these elite military units is simply huge: 140 people per place.

Even the British themselves have already admitted that the Gurkhas are better soldiers than they are. Perhaps because they have stronger motivation, but the Nepalese themselves claim that money has absolutely nothing to do with it. Martial art is something they can really be proud of, so they are always happy to demonstrate it and put it into practice.

Dayaks

The list of warlike peoples of the world traditionally includes Dayaks. This is an example of how even a small nation does not want to integrate into the modern world, trying by any means to preserve their traditions, which may be completely far from human values ​​and humanism.

The Dayak tribe has earned a terrible reputation on the island of Kalimantan, where they are considered bounty hunters. The fact is that, according to the customs of this people, only one who brings the head of his enemy to the tribe is considered a man. This situation among the Dayaks persisted until the beginning of the 20th century.

Literally, the name of this people is translated as "pagans". This is an ethnic group that includes the peoples of the island of Kalimantan in Indonesia. Some representatives of the Dayaks still live in hard-to-reach places. For example, you can only get there by boat, most of the achievements of modern civilization are unknown to them. They preserve their ancient culture and traditions.

The Dayaks have many bloodthirsty rituals, which is why they were included in the list of warlike peoples of the world. The custom of hunting for human heads persisted for a long period, until the Englishman Charles Brooks, who came from white rajahs, managed to influence a people who knew no other way to become a man, except to chop off someone's head.

Brooks captured one of the most warlike leaders of the Dayak tribe. Using both a stick and a carrot, he managed to set all the Dayaks on a peaceful path. True, people continued to disappear without a trace after that. It is known that the last wave of massacres swept across the island in the period 1997-1999. Then all the world's news agencies reported on ritual cannibalism in Kalimantan, the games of small children with human heads.

Kalmyks

Kalmyks are considered one of the most warlike. They are descendants of Western Mongols. Their self-name is translated as "breakaway", which hints that the people never converted to Islam. Currently, most Kalmyks live in the territory of the republic of the same name.

Their ancestors, who called themselves Oirats, lived in Djungraiya. They were warlike and freedom-loving nomads, whom even Genghis Khan could not subdue. For this, he even demanded to completely destroy one of the tribes. Over time, the Oirat warriors nevertheless became part of the troops of the famous commander, and many of them intermarried with the Genghisides. So modern Kalmyks have every reason to officially consider themselves descendants of Genghis Khan.

In the 17th century, the Oirats left Dzungaria, made a great transition, reaching the Volga steppes. In 1641, Russia officially recognized the Kalmyk Khanate, after which the Kalmyks began to serve on a permanent basis in the Russian army.

There is even a version that the famous battle cry "hurray" came from the Kalmyk word "uralan", which literally means "forward" in our language. As part of the Russian army, the Kalmyks especially distinguished themselves in the Patriotic War of 1812. Three Kalmyk regiments fought against the French at once, this is about three and a half thousand people. According to the results of only one Battle of Borodino, 260 Kalmyks were awarded the highest orders of Russia.

Kurds

In world history, the Kurds are usually called among the most warlike peoples. Together with the Persians, Arabs and Armenians, they are the most ancient peoples of the Middle East. Initially, they lived in the ethno-geographical region of Kurdistan, which, after the First World War, was divided among themselves by several states at once: Iran, Turkey, Iraq and Syria. Today, the Kurds do not have their own legal territory.

According to most researchers, their language belongs to the Iranian group, while there is no unity among the Kurds in terms of religion. Among them are Muslims, Christians and Jews. Largely because of this, it is extremely difficult for the Kurds to agree among themselves.

This feature of this warlike people was noted by Erikson, Doctor of Medical Sciences, in his work on ethnopsychology. He also claimed that the Kurds are merciless towards their enemies and at the same time very unreliable in friendship. In reality, they respect only their elders and themselves. Their morality is at a very low level. At the same time, superstitions are very common, but the religious feeling is extremely poorly developed. War is one of their innate needs, which absorbs all their attention and interests.

Modern history of the Kurds

Note that it is difficult to judge how this thesis is applicable to today's Kurds, since Erickson conducted his research at the beginning of the 20th century. But the fact remains: the Kurds have never lived under a centralized government. As Professor of the Kurdish University in Paris Sadrin Aleksi notes, every Kurd considers himself a king on his own grief, because of this they often quarrel among themselves, conflicts often arise from an absolutely empty place.

Paradoxically, with all this uncompromisingness, the Kurds most of all dream of living in a centralized state. So the so-called Kurdish issue currently remains one of the most acute in the entire Middle East. Unrest regularly arises, during which the Kurds are trying to achieve autonomy by uniting in an independent state. Such attempts have been made since 1925.

The situation became especially aggravated in the mid-1990s. From 1992 to 1996, the Kurds launched a full-scale civil war in northern Iraq, now the unstable situation remains in Iran and Syria, where armed conflicts and clashes occur from time to time. At the moment, there is only one state formation of Kurds with the rights of wide autonomy - this is

Germans

It is widely believed that the Germans are a warlike people. But if you examine the facts, it turns out that this is a delusion. The reputation of Germany was greatly spoiled in the 20th century, when the Germans unleashed two world wars at once. If we take the history of mankind for a longer period, then the situation will be completely opposite.

For example, the Russian historian Pitirim Sorokin conducted an interesting study in 1938. He tried to answer the question which European countries fought more often than others. He took the period from the 12th century to the beginning of the 20th century (1925).

It turned out that in 67% of all wars that took place during this period, Spaniards participated, in 58% - Poles, in 56% - British, in 50% - French, in 46% - Russians, in 44% - Dutch, in 36% - Italians. The Germans in 800 years took part in only 28% of the wars. This is less than any other leading state in Europe. It turns out that Germany is one of the most peaceful countries, which only in the 20th century began to show aggression and militancy.

Irish

It is believed that the Irish are a warlike people. This is a nation that descended from the Celts. Historians claim that the first people appeared on the territory of modern Ireland about nine thousand years ago. Who these first settlers were is unknown, but they left behind several megalithic structures. The Celts settled the island at the beginning of our era.

The famine of 1845-1849 became decisive in the fate of the Irish people. Due to the massive crop failure, about one million Irish people died. At the same time, from the estates that belonged to the British, all this time they continued to export grain, meat and dairy products.

The Irish emigrated en masse to the United States and overseas colonies of Great Britain. From then until the mid-1970s, Ireland's population steadily declined. In addition, the island on which the people lived was divided. Only a part became part of the Republic of Ireland, the other remained in the United Kingdom. For decades, the Irish Catholics have waged resistance against the Protestant colonists, often resorting to terrorist methods, for which the Irish are included in the top warlike nations.

IRA

Since 1916, a paramilitary group called the Irish Republican Army began to operate. Its main goal was the complete liberation of Northern Ireland from British rule.

The history of the IRA began with the Easter Rising in Dublin. From 1919 to 1921, the Irish War of Independence against the British Army continued. Its result was the Anglo-Irish agreement, in which Great Britain recognized the independence of the Republic of Ireland, while retaining Northern Ireland.

After that, the IRA went underground, starting the tactics of terrorist attacks. Movement activists are constantly on buses, near British embassies. In 1984, there was an assassination attempt on British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. A bomb exploded in a hotel in Brighton where a Conservative conference was being held. 5 people were killed, but Thatcher herself was not injured.

In 1997, the dissolution of the IRA was announced, the order to stop the armed struggle was issued in 2005.

The warlike peoples of the Caucasus are well known in Russia. First of all, we are talking about the Vainakhs. In fact, these are modern Ingush and Chechens, who leave no less bright mark in modern history than their distant ancestors.

The Vainakhs offered heroic resistance to the armies of Genghis Khan and Timur, retreating to the mountains. Then their famous defensive architecture was built. An ideal confirmation of this is the fortresses and watchtowers of the Caucasus.

Now you know which peoples are the most warlike.

Any nation is going through a time of active wars and expansions. But there are tribes in which militancy and cruelty are an integral part of their culture. These are ideal warriors without fear and morality.

The name of the New Zealand tribe "Maori" means "ordinary", although, in truth, there is nothing ordinary about them. Even Charles Darwin, who happened to meet them during his journey on the Beagle, noted their cruelty, especially towards the whites (English), with whom they fought for territory during the Maori wars.

The Maori are considered the indigenous people of New Zealand. Their ancestors sailed to the island approximately 2000-700 years ago from East Polynesia. Before the arrival of the British in the middle of the 19th century, they had no serious enemies, they "amused" themselves mainly with civil strife.

During this time, their unique customs, characteristic of many Polynesian tribes, have developed. For example, they cut off the heads of captured enemies and ate their bodies - this is how, according to their beliefs, the strength of the enemy passed to them. Unlike their neighbors - the Australian Aborigines - the Maori participated in two world wars.

It is known that during the First World War, with the help of their combat dance haka, they forced the enemy to retreat during an offensive operation on the Gallipoli Peninsula. This ritual was accompanied by warlike cries, stomping and frightening grimaces, which literally discouraged the enemies and gave the Maori an advantage.

During the Second World War, the Maori themselves insisted on the formation of their own 28th battalion.

Another warlike people who also fought on the side of the British are the Nepalese Gurkhas. Back in colonial times, the British classified them as one of the "most militant" peoples they had to face. According to them, the Gurkhas were distinguished by aggressiveness in battle, courage, self-sufficiency, physical strength and a lower pain threshold. For these proud warriors, even a friendly pat on the shoulder is considered an insult. The British themselves had to surrender under the pressure of the Gurkhas, armed with knives alone.

Not surprisingly, as early as 1815, a massive campaign was launched to recruit Gurkha volunteers into the British army. Fearless warriors quickly found the glory of the best soldiers in the world.

They managed to take part in the suppression of the Sikh uprising, in the Afghan, First and Second World Wars, as well as in the Falklands conflict. Today, the Gurkhas are still the elite fighters of the English army. They are all recruited in the same place - in Nepal. And I must say that the competition, according to the modernarmy portal, is crazy - 28,000 candidates apply for 200 places.

The British themselves admit that the Gurkhas as soldiers are better than themselves. Maybe because they are more motivated. Although the Nepalese themselves argue, the point here is not at all about money. They are proud of their martial art and are always happy to put it into practice.

When some small nations are actively integrating into the modern world, others prefer to preserve traditions, even if they are far from the values ​​of humanism.

For example, a tribe of Dayaks from the island of Kalimantan, who have earned a terrible reputation as headhunters. What can you say if, according to their traditions, you can become a man only by getting the head of your enemy. At least that was the case back in the 20th century. The Dayak people (in Malay - "pagan") is an ethnic group that unites the numerous peoples inhabiting the island of Kalimantan in Indonesia.

Among them: Ibans, Kayans, Modangs, Segai, Trings, Inihings, Longvais, Longhats, Otnadoms, Serai, Mardahiks, Ulu-Aiers. Even today, the only way to reach the place of residence of some of them is by boat.

The bloodthirsty rituals of the Dayaks and the hunting for human heads were officially stopped in the 19th century, when the local sultanate asked the Englishman Charles Brooke from the White Raja dynasty to somehow influence the people, whose representatives do not know any other way to become a man, except to cut off someone's head.

Capturing the most warlike leaders, he seems to have managed to set the Dayaks on a peaceful path through the policy of carrots and sticks. But people continued to disappear without a trace. The last bloody wave swept across the island in 1997-1999, when all world agencies shouted about ritual cannibalism and the games of small Dayaks with human heads.

Among the peoples of Russia, one of the most warlike nationalities are the Kalmyks, the descendants of the Western Mongols. Their self-name is translated as "breakaways", Oirats means "those who did not accept Islam". Today, most of them live in the Republic of Kalmykia. Nomads are always more aggressive than farmers.

The ancestors of the Kalmyks, the Oirats, who lived in Dzungaria, were freedom-loving and warlike. Even Genghis Khan did not immediately manage to subdue them, for which he demanded the complete destruction of one of the tribes. Later, the Oirat warriors became part of the army of the Mongol commander, and many of them intermarried with the Genghisides. Therefore, not without reason, some of the modern Kalmyks consider themselves descendants of Genghis Khan.

In the 17th century, the Oirats left Dzungaria and, having made a huge transition, reached the Volga steppes. In 1641, Russia recognized the Kalmyk Khanate, and from that time Kalmyks were constantly recruited into the Russian army. It is said that the battle cry "hurrah" was once derived from the Kalmyk "uralan", meaning "forward". They especially distinguished themselves in the Patriotic War of 1812. Three Kalmyk regiments numbering more than three and a half thousand people took part in it. For the battle of Borodino alone, more than 260 Kalmyks were awarded the highest orders of Russia.

Kurds, along with Arabs, Persians and Armenians, are one of the oldest peoples in the Middle East. They live in the ethno-geographical region of Kurdistan, which after the First World War was divided among themselves by Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria.

The language of the Kurds, according to scientists, belongs to the Iranian group. In religious terms, they do not have unity - among them there are Muslims, Jews and Christians. It is generally difficult for Kurds to agree with each other. Another doctor of medical sciences E.V. Erickson noted in his work on ethnopsychology that the Kurds are a people merciless to the enemy and unreliable in friendship: “They respect only themselves and their elders. Their morality is generally very low, superstition is extremely great, and real religious feeling is extremely poorly developed. War is their direct innate need and absorbs all interests.

It is difficult to judge how relevant this thesis, expressed at the beginning of the 20th century, is today. But the fact that they never lived under their own centralized authority makes itself felt. According to Sandrine Alexi of the Kurdish University in Paris: “Every Kurd is a king on his mountain. Therefore, they quarrel with each other, conflicts arise often and easily.

But for all their uncompromising attitude towards each other, the Kurds dream of a centralized state. Today, the "Kurdish question" is one of the most acute in the Middle East. Numerous unrest organized by the Kurds in order to achieve autonomy and unite in one state have been going on since 1925. From 1992 to 1996, they waged a civil war in northern Iraq, and permanent uprisings still occur in Iran. In a word, the "question" hangs in the air. Now the only state formation of Kurds with broad autonomy is Iraqi Kurdistan.
