Ah, this does my heart proud! Yes you Limies, the Father of our Country is indeed your greatest foe and he catalyzed the fall of your Empire.

At least the British can take consolation in knowing that their greatest foe was himself an Englishmen. The colonists were all British subjects right up until the day they declared their independence from the King. So at least it took a fellow Englishman to soundly beat them and be their top foe. If you are British, you can take a little pride in that.

Kinda' early to be catalyzing an Empire ~ due to their losses in America the Brits turned to South Asia and conquered all of India and huge chunks of territory traditionally claimed by the Thai kings.

Then they turned to Africa then the Middle East.

Not a bad job of catalyzation!
