Yes you are correct. This is coming from one of the all time dominating countries in history. How many colonies have they had over time and still have?
Well they can put my name on the list and the names of my kids and grand kids next time they get into a war they cant win by themselfs.
“How many colonies have they had over time and still have?”
More than we can count. If the idiots hadn’t carved up China I do not think there would be Communism. The one thing that ticks me off is that they went around the world and instead of learning and following the customs they pretty much recreated Britain wherever they went.
Now not every foreign custom was a good idea, but they went there, treated the native locals like dirt, and then simply demanded exceptions from their basic laws when they broke them.
