Hey, I don't have to be pro-Argentine to be anti-British ~ I'm just being more nearly historically accurate and I regularly refuse to push everything through what is called "the English filter" ~ which is an historical viewpoint that requires that everything in the world be viewed strictly as an event centered around the UK.

The Ukian people were late comers to the world stage and frequently were NOT the first settlers in a given area.

Damn, UKian, that is good. As an ex UKian of 381 years distance I think we did pretty good. We introduced the idea of Representative government and the rule of law, we are not slaves, for now. I kinda like to think that we and the limies to a certain extent had a positive effect on the world stage.
