What If the Emu Had Won in 1932? (They Did)

What Australia would look like if the emu had won in 1932.

And honestly? We’re not sure they didn’t.

For those who don’t know: In 1932, Australia declared war on emus. Yes, war. Against birds. The military deployed machine guns. The emus deployed… being faster than machine guns. The result? The Great Emu War ended in a decisive emu victory. Zero emus captured. Multiple soldiers embarrassed. A nation humbled by flightless birds.

Gorgocutie says: Australia lost a war to birds. The emus have been riding that high for 94 years. If you look at a map of Australia and squint, you can still see the outline of their mighty empire. They won. They know it. We all know it. All hail the Emu Empire. 🦃👑🇦🇺
