Hello lads,

For you, which countries has the longest/ most important rivarly since X century in the whole world ?

Japan / China
Britain / France
Austria / Ottomans
Britain / Spain (a bit later in centuries)

Much later in the time period, i would say :
USA / USSR
-----------------------------

And you, what do you think ?

The Netherlands / Neverland

Damn wannabes

[Herezy92]

GOO Neverlands !

edit: I forgot Sweden / Russia
Long rivals too :p

[bagge]

Sweden / Denmark as well

[Herezy92]

Sweden / Denmark as well

Would you say more important than Sweden / Russia ?

[bagge]

I'd say it's equal. We've learned we can't trust either of them

UK has had a few rivalries but most important hmmm hard to say. UK vs France/Spain rivalry was arguably one of the most important in history for how it shaped the modern age.

For non country rivalries then its defiantly the battle between Islam and Christianity

[KaleLord]

Japan / China

It was only in the late 19th century/early 20th century, Japan became powerful enough to be "rivals" with China ( China got rekt in WW2!!!)

As many would say, UK vs France/Spain imo was the most important rivalry.

Austria / Ottomans

That rivalry ended at first world war as alliance.

Finland and Herezyland.

They're still fighting to determine who's the one to defend the stairs, and who's the one to tell the other one to do so.

We're into William Wallace/Edward Longshanks territory before we know it.

Skirmishes and battles never really stopped until the Battle of Culloden in 1746, the last major battle fought on British soil.

That's one hell of a history of battle and border defense. And good news fellas, they want their freedom again 

The battle has never stopped. We sent one of our boys to Brazil to support the opposition playing England.

Byzantines / Muslims is a huge rivalry aswell.First Byz fought Caliphates for like centuries, and then Seljuks & Ottomans for many years.Turks and Greeks fought until 1920ish years... Then the Cyprus Crisis occured, Turk-Greek relations got worse again.Our peoples still despise each other.
