He definitely had small man syndrome. Still it’s nice he tried, that’s the main thing, God loves a tryer. And if he hadn’t who knows, we might all be speaking French now and watching really sh!t league football.

How did the German people managed to get conned into war by an.....Austrian?
How did a bloke with black hair and dark eyes manage to convince a whole nation that the perfect race had blonde hair and blue eyes?
Why were so many of his 'advisors' who were so much bigger so scared of him?
How did a retired locksmith from West Yorkshire manage to p!ss off the whole Catholic church and bring about a terrible vexation from the Pope himself?
