Burma was part of India.
>American Colonial empire
>implying the US engaged in colonialism
>leaving out Germany
>9)
>implying we didn't invest in the colonies
The only reason Angola, etc. are shit today is because the KGB-funded revolution of (((liberation))) destroyed anything whitey had built there.
>>78249327
ottoman empire was not a colonial one
conquering =/= colonizing

Philippines, Guam, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Liberia, and Various islands in the pacific.
Learn your own history yank.

I'm not him, but a lot of Americans don't consider it imperialism or colonialism. That's probably what he meant.
>>78249946
>all of which, excluding Liberia are/were unorganized territories
You obviously know nothing of the law regarding this in America, or you'd understand that they are in no way a colony.
Also Liberia was just founded by America, they had full sovereignty however. Similar to San Marino in Europe

Spain is better than the UK if you leave Canadá, US and australia NZ aside
>>78250851
You guys got a shitty independence deal from our treasonous king.
That's nice. But we colonized England.
Spain was Rome 2.0 Tbvh, except maybe in the religious part.
>>78249327
Look, I love Rome, but the territories of the Spanish Empire were far better than the colonies of the Roman Empire, they just so happened to fuck up really badly after that.
>>78249327
9) place?
we were the first global empire and the last to fall.
just going to the facts.
btw it's good that the age of the empires is over...we should protect our nations, blood and soil.

British empire only gets points for aus, canada, nz and other white territories, usa is 50%, got negroided and spicced.
Every other empire didnt mean shit and werent ethnic expansions so dont matter.
70% of the british empire is shit and the rest has become good when they left and thanks to the huge resources and immigration from other countries
