Okay, okay, okay, lately I've developed a little theory that I think could be true, but I'm not entirely sure. First off, if you haven't watched all of the World of Remnants, I recommend that you do so. After all of the intros to the kingdoms, fans started to see similarities between Remnant's kingdoms and regions from our world. Just in case you have no idea what they are, I'll list them here:

Vale-Europe

Mistral-Asia

Atlas-U.S. (I know that this would make it the only kingdom paradying just one country, but the similarities just make too much sense)

Vacuo-Africa and/or the Middle East

So, after a while, I've thought about this, and then the thought came to me: What if RWBY's plotline goes along with our world history? Then I remembered the war in Remnant, referred to specifically as the 'Great War.' Now, I don't know about you, but I just cannot see that as just a coincidence (for those of you who maybe aren't too familiar with history, WWI was referred to as the Great War while it was going on).

After re-watching the World of Remnant on Remnant's Great War, I noticed there were a few things. The war was basically Atlas (U.S.) and Mistral (Asia) vs. Vale (Europe) and Vacuo (Africa and/or Middle East). This sort of makes sense. While the U.S. definitely wasn't against certain European countries, such as England and France, they were fighting against certain European countries as well, such as Germany and Austria-Hungary. Additionally, Japan also aided the Allies against the Central Powers, which could allude to Mistral and Atlas working together. And as for Vacuo, I'm pretty sure Turkey was a part of the Central Powers-idk I'm not exactly an expert on all this stuff.

Anyways, what I'm getting to is that RWBY could possibly be all leading up to a parody of Earth's WWII!

Now then, I'm guessing that the question that most of you are wondering is: Who are the Nazis? Excellent question, and to be honest, I think it may be the White Fang. Think about it: After WWI, the Treaty of Versaiiles placed Germany under a very heavy oppression, and their territory was decreased significantly. This could allude to the fact that after the Great War, the faunice were all placed in Menagerie. Thanks to all the hate brought about, the White Fang formed, an organization whose main goal is to wipe out an entire race and make the world a perfect one-one of only faunice. Jeez, sounds kinda familiar, doesn't it?

Anyways, I know the theory still needs a lot of work, and there are some things missing here and there. Just wanted to post this and see what you guys think! :)
