If the British hated Washington after their Yorktown defeat in 1781, how much more would they despise his memory a century or so later when the United States had become a transcontinental industrial & military power and the chaps in London looked across the Atlantic and said “Damn his eyes! All that could have been ours!”

The Brits were always a big part of the development of industrial and military power in the United States, and probably a bigger part in developing Canada.

They began their exit from the Fringe of Europe some time in the early 20th century, just like the Celtic nations before them in the 19th century, and we should see the completion of that effort in the next 20 years or so.

We are currently seeing the greatest transplantation of Brits to America that we've ever seen!

Now that's how to deal with a military loss!
