This has been on my mind for at least two weeks. Hashirama was a great Hokage, but he was too soft-hearted to deal with the complications of his vision for a peaceful world. Analyzing the story on Konoha's founding and what resulted of some of the dumbest decisions that turned the world into a hell hole, there is one major factor that started it all and that is Tobirama.
To start things off, I believe Tobirama was an excellent Hokage. He didn't take crap from anyone nor the villages, who were trying to muscle him and his brother for the Bijuu. He created the Ninja Rankings, the Chuunin Exams, the Shinobi schooling system. He's a genius. However, there's one problem....
HE RUINED HASHIRAMA'S ALLIANCE WITH THE UCHIHA, BECAUSE OF HIS PARANOIA AND PREJUDICE!
Tobirama stripped the Uchiha of their government rights, kicked them to the outskirts of the village, placed heavy surveillance on them, and treated them as expendables. He only made them Police to spy on them and even built their station inside the prison.
Tobirama ruined everything. the Uchiha wanted peace, but because of his paranoia, everything was ruined and resulted in a bloody massacre.
Madara was right, but Hashirama ignored his warning.
And because of Hashirama's dumb decision for not killing his brother, and with Tobirama committing injustices towards the Uchiha, this gave birth to Tobirama 2.0 aka Danzo, who desired the Sharingan to the point, he wanted all the little children and babies of the Uchiha Clan to be killed in their cribs:
Danzo took Tobirama's racism toward the Uchiha to a whole new extreme and was even responsible for several villains such as Kabuto. In the end, if Hashirama took care of his brother, made sure that the alliance between the Senju and Uchiha stayed strong, kept the Bijuu in Konoha, and made peace with Madara before he left, none of the bad shit that happened in the series had happened.
With the Uchiha and Senju standing strong together, Konoha would've been unstoppable.
