How come they're never criticized about their war history?

Russia's always criticized
of course, I don't have to tell you about Germany and Japan

Interesting, they aren't seen in a negative light at all here. We actually added the South African War to the National War Memorial a few years ago.

The brits weren't really warmongers. Their empire relied on trade and and diplomacy more so than war. You cant colonize 500 million people with a population of 6 million by sending all your blue eyed white bois to die.

>>72857302
It was never truly an empire. The British didn't even directly conquer the world. They had companies do it (East India company). Most of the time, the British just bribe or side with a local chief/King/Sultan and then demand payment in trade rights followed by British "Advisors". The Brits never really tried to convert the local populace or make them citizen on the Empire. You can argue the British Empire was essentially trade colonies connected by merchant ships and protected by the Royal Navy.

Company Rule ended in the 1700s

>Most of the time, the British just bribe or side with a local chief/King/Sultan and then demand payment in trade rights followed by British "Advisors"

In protectorates, but most British possessions were not protectorates.

>The Brits never really tried to convert the local populace or make them citizen on the Empire

Really depends on where you go, but an empire is inherently unequal.

>You can argue the British Empire was essentially trade colonies connected by merchant ships and protected by the Royal Navy.

And I'm sure you could argue that the Roman Empire was resource-rich colonies connected by merchants and protected by the legions

What?
The I.R. revolutionised the world. It made society and the academics progress tenfold.

Nope. What is the cold war? What are the countless wars in the Middle East?

>We have prosperity today
We've become less prosperous due to the poisonous ideology of cultural marxism - thanks to America, of course.

You know the rest...

Because they usually win in the end, one way or another managing to salvage something out of a loss. It's actually quite impressive how the Brits have always managed to minimize their losses.

Their victories also far outweigh their failures.

>>72857277
I keep telling you people: Brits never LOST. Germany and Japan suffered an unambiguous defeat and decades of humiliation. UK avoided that, their empire just sort of ceased to be over time and no foreign power invaded and occupied the country and treated brits like subhumans not worthy of civilisation. They got away with it, and are still getting away with it. Lucky circumstances placed UK in a position where it could look like an underdog and have powerful allies preventing other powers from taking revenge on it.

How come you people are so unable to comprehend this?
