Powerful. And this is why Westerners let Soviets rape us.
Yeah I ignored it. It's a dumb thread
lol
what's it like having your country be under foreign occupation for half a millennium?
It's okay since it didn't end well for you
It ended just fine, we are doing just very well as of now. Meanwhile your country remains the same war torn shithole that is was when we arrived.
No canal
No empire
>hey bro wanna hear a joke?
What we need the canal for now? It was our route to the Subcontinent, which we no longer own.
As for having lost our empire, the end of the British Empire was literally the only example in all of history (that I can think of rn) of a deliberate and systematic withdrawal from conquered land.
Besides, the commonwealth is doing just fine, and there are at least 5 cunts that are more or less unconditionally beside us in international affairs, two of which are in the top 20 global economies. We're doing fine pal, can you say the same :^)
and here we have an excellent example of delusion
Dumb weeb no one will read your stupid text
still pissed about your empire, mehmet?
I'm sorry it ended the way it did
that's okay senpai
shouldn't you be the one who's pissed matey?
>could've pursued union as CANZUK but didn't, instead opted to strengthen european relations and trade
>EU backfired
>Canada, Australia and NZ now in the sphere of USA
you brought it upon yourselves.
This level of cope is just embarrassing, we got btfo.
Based Egyptian military overthrowing the Pisslim Brotherhood
Something like 80% of new zealanders said they would support canzuk free trade/movement, about 70% of australians and circa 60% of canadians. That is still something that could be easily pursued, and I doubt the US would care too much since we'd still be allied with them, and let's face it, mostly subservient to them diplomatically.
What, by ourselves? Sure the Suez was humiliating at the time, but what would winning that conflict have given us in the long term?
We could have kept up the facade of actually being relevant on the world stage, for one.
>The British government faced political and economic pressure. Sir Anthony Eden, the British Prime Minister, announced a cease fire on 6 November, warning neither France nor Israel beforehand. Troops were still in Port Said and on operational manoeuvres when the order came from London.
the funny thing is that France and Israel did want to go on but anglos were such pussies and did not want to disappoint their master (USA)
The fact that France and Israel obeyed British commands shows that they are even lower on the totem pole.
For how long? A few years, face it, we were way into our decline at that point, all that crisis did is make it slightly more clear.
And besides, whether these 3rd worlders like it or not, that permanent UN security council seat makes us relevant for at least the foreseeable future.
