Thirty Years' War time reference?
Hello everyone, I wanted to ask if what my history teacher said was true, because I couldn't find anything about it online. He told us in class that the Thirty Years' War lasted 29 years, and based on history and history books, they rounded it up to 30 years because it sounds better in the future retellings of history.
Is the statement correct?
Your teacher is not right. The war began with the Prague window crash on 23.5.1618 and ended with the Westphalian peace on 24.10.1648 after 30 years 5 months and one day.
After 28 years, it was agreed that the war lasted 30 years. It was unclear who fights with whom against whom…… but it didn’t really happen: https://youtu.be/ELvmB8GnJo
No, he went from 1618-1648. exactly 30 years

No! The 30 years of war lasted exactly
30 years and 154 days. (thus even 30.5 years)
From 23. May 1618 (Prague skylight) up to 24. October 1948 (signature of the Westphalian peace).
Of course, it was not fought uninterruptedly and it can be divided into four conflicts, but 30 and half a year he took.
Well, that’s so bad.
War is not NOW on the run and in exactly 2 minutes. Especially at the time when there were curators, everyone first had to know when war really was over, they fought against one another over a huge disgrace.
In some battles the war was certainly already over, but if the messenger on the way fell from the horse or was looted, then people did not know anything about it.
Nowadays, something like this goes through the Internet much faster, you can see what’s going on with satellite images. If Putin doesn’t like war today, it’s guaranteed to end up in the news feed. Formerly couriers had to run off until they were at the finish, maybe a month ago. I.e. even if your teacher is right and it was only 29 years, you could expect to receive the news and say:
Joa, he’s been riding a total of 5 weeks until he arrived at us, so for us the war is only over.
Nice post, only complete nonsense. There is a date for the outbreak of war and an exact date on which the peace treaty was signed.
Read it again. Then you see that it’s up to whoever touches it. I wrote GENERAL, not explicitly on this war.
For one, the submission of the peace treaty is the time when it is peace, for others when the battle was won and the enemy has surrendered. Hardly believe that everyone had a finished peace deal in the jacket pocket, so what was probably done shortly after the surrender.
Non-knowledge: look at Wikipedia under Nakamura Teruo after you think that the second world war would have been over in 1974.
And that’s what I mean. Ultimately, it always decides when the war is officially over. A real war of positions, which we say is ending in 15 years, but which was fixed for 15 years so that basically no war has been felt, is, for example, purely on the paper after these 15 years. In theory, he was already at the end when the war of positions began and the world was living quite normal.
Okay, I’m talking about a war where there’s no dead because there’s been a ceasefire for a long time, because the hostage nations won’t agree on the peace agreements and the soldiers are in a position for years, because FALLS should change something. That better?
I don’t know a single war that nobody felt – it always had an impact
23. May 1618 to 24 October 1648
Are 30 years and 5 months after my bill.
If one accepts the prager window crash as the beginning and the Westphalian peace as the end, there is nothing to doubt about.
I’ve never heard of such a round-up…
But it is not true:
