The U.K. Was the greatest nation in all of history

The first global superpowers were the US and USSR

The Britits empire lived in a world where empires of equal standing existed. While its navy was top tier, men laughed at its army. Not to mention had to contend with American and German industry, which even overtook British industry by the close of the 19th Century.

>be German
>destroy Europe three times (Luther, Wilhelm II, Hitler)
>exhaust the British Empire so it collapses during the Cold War
>become leading nation of Europe
What is their masterplan?

to destroy everything

Wrong

>the British Empire became the global hegemonic power and adopted the role of a global police force.[1][2]

Since Germans can't rise to decency they must bring everyone else down to their level.

>Only three times

>Arminius
>Odoacer
>Orban
>Teutonic Order
>Luther
>Marx
>Willy
>Hitler
>Merkel

Germans are just a race of villians.

sorry m8 but see A super power ins't constituted by its army and even so Britain's army was the only fully professional army in 1914 with no conscription.
What makes a super power is its influence on other nations. Britain was the economic super power and the policeman of the world with no equals during its pax. And when Britain did get involved on the continent they preformed rather well, see the Crimean war.

Found the butt hurt Brit. How does it feel to be one of the only nations to be defeated by savage niggers?

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Isandlwana

Still won the war and took all their diamonds and gold which funded our glorious empire

I still think it's Italy/Roma, mostly because I look up to civilizations who build high, not wide. But I guess it's easy to look down on them due to recent military records and if you don't care about the arts.

>first global superpower
Nope, America was
Britain never was a superpower, it lacked the hegemonic character of it
>controlled the trades
Yes
>pax britannica
An abstract concept
Shittons of European wars happened in that period
>ruled the waves, strongest navy in history
I guess
>contributed most to humanity
Doubt it
>thousands of inventions and discoveries
Like basically every Western european country
>English language lingua Franca due to British colonialism
That's false, it's because of recent US hegemony
Even at the peak of the British Empire, French was still the lingua franca
in 1914, English was so irrelevant that German diplomats adressed British ones in French ("chiffon de papier")
>best colonists
Most genocidal ones
>industrial revolution
Yep
>biggest empire
Yes, although most of it was made of third world wastelands

>glorious
>killed 30 million people
>tfw there are 2,500 British casualties because of sticks and rocks

>contributed most to humanity

Name someone other than Newton worth a damn.

>first global power
yes>pax Britannica
None of those war effected the UK from losing their superpower status

>contributed most to humanity

>English language lingua Franca due to British colonialism
And the US speaks English because of British colonialism in North America

Yes very glorious

>1400-1950s

Where did all the other years go senpai? :^)

Just accept it

>None of those war effected the UK from losing their superpower status

Because they never had that statut
Germany alone outpowered the UK in 1914

Well that is when pax Britannica officially ended

1815-1914

The UK didnt suddently get weak in 1914 nor did Germany suddenly get strong
The truth is that Russia was stronger than Britain for the first half of the "Pax Britannica" (until Crimean War) and Germany was for the 2nd one (since Austro-Prussian War).

Nah, the UK still had their navy which was undisputed which kept their interests and power. Germany only started to rival UK when they built their navy up.

>Under pressure from the British, Russia accepted the truce offered by the Ottoman Empire on January 31, 1878, but continued to move towards Constantinople. The British sent a fleet of battleships to intimidate Russia from entering the city, and Russian forces stopped at San Stefano.

Jesus Christ, Corbyn is the most pathetic leader of the Labour Party of all time, and that is really something. If they had any true leadership, the Tories would probably get mullered, but they are too busy trying to distance themselves from the only useful PMs they have ever had, like Tony Blair, just so they can have some fucking false feeling of moral authority.

I mean I am a Tory so I don't care, but grow a pair for christsake, Labour or we're going to have to deal with the Lib Dems actually winning seats.

2 world wars

Crashing this continent
With no survivors

Your just gonna be a cunt and shift goalposts are try to brush it aside.
Like UK's past really matters at this point it's basically fucked itself over.

This.
They're going to become more irrelevant than ever now, yet Brexiters keep saying 'b-but muh Empire.'

Fucking this.

Nobody gives a fuck about the past, right now it's time for us French to dominate England as we have done so many times in the past.

Scot here.

I can't fucking wait for England to crumble, we can finally be free from oppression and take up a strong position on the world stage. We're already far more respected than England, so once we're free from then we should be up their with France and Germany.

Kek

?

I assumed you were merely pretending to be retarded

>tfw the British Empire never federalised
>no Imperial parliament in Westminster
>no English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish etc parliaments

Feels bad man.

Its the lack of an effective opposition thats actually got me worried, like, what the fuck is the point in the current system of govt. if a fairly important part of it is incapable of doing its fucking job.

>Oppression

fucking do 1 m8

This

I hate this fucking meme that Scots are some poor wee oppressed people. Fucking Gaelic on every roadsign man. Gaelic hasn't been spoken down here in 1000 years, if ever.

Scot here.

Kill yourself my man

Scot here

Your memes are shit

>strongest navy in history
?

You forgot to mention the part where Prussia was a proxy state of Great Britain for almost a century and how Germany' industrial growth was solely financed by the United States of America,even before they became one of the greatest recipients of the Marshall Plan.

Especially when they've financed the rise of Bolshevism in the former Russian Empire,something that has already been proven by the Sisson Documents but still overlooked because of a recent change of course in global politics.

>We're already far more respected than England
I adore the Scots,especially your involvement in the creation of Capitalism and industrialization but come on,do you truly believe that you're more respected than the English?

>Most genocidal ones
>Not Spain

The reason British colonialism worked so well was because of how the natives were treated, as opposed to France and Spain.

Exactly, Spain and France were too soft on the natives.

>Rest were 5% Japanese
Utter fallacy.In that period,the Japanese have contributed to nearly nothing,which is significantly less than their alleged 5%.

No, the opposite. France just used their colonies to suck out all the resources there and the Spanish just genocided the natives. The British actually traded with them and sought alliances, and even wanted to Europeanise the American Natives and give them all the land west of the Appalachians.

>voluntarily

You realise that the U.S demanded it in exchange for helping Britain in the Second World War? The handover of power in colonies and all of that. Even so Britain was bankrupted by the loans the U.S forced on them.

I can't wait for you to have to go on your own without us subsidising you useless, entitled fucks. Fuck the Scots in charge of Westminster for 13 years who tried to bribe the Scottish people and ended up letting them think they're special snowflakes deserving of unique treatment.

You wouldn't be pathetic socialists if you actually had any immigrants in your country.

I thought english delusion was just a thing on /sp/

>The categories of human accomplishment where significant figures are ranked in the book are [...] Chinese Philosophy, Indian Philosophy, Western Philosophy, Western Music, Chinese Painting, Japanese Art, Western Art, Arabic Literature, Chinese Literature, Indian Literature, Japanese Literature, and Western Literature.

you are an idiot
In Spanish colonies natives and mixed racep spanish-native people were the majority of the society, that is why Mexicans look like Mexicans and Peru/Bolivia/Guatemala/Nicaragua still have native majorities.

In the British colonies you either had slave colonies of blacks in the caribbean (something the british did to a much larger degree than the Spaniards who cared mainly about silver and gold), and a european society in the future USA in which natives were not a part of the society, and only existed to be killed and pushed to the west to make room for more european colonists.

And the British were hunting Bushmen in South Africa, and Abos in Australia, as if they were animals, in very recent times.

>Odoacer
>German

All of the world is subject to Austria, famm.

>no English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish etc parliaments

But there are?

You will be Slovakia tier in relevance once you are independent.

This is all fucking horseshit disregard this imbecile.

>MFW humanity wouldn't be where it currently is without the Brits.

>mfw Bongland would be literally third-world without the USA.

>do you truly believe that you're more respected than the English?

>You wouldn't be pathetic socialists if you actually had any immigrants in your country.

we do have immigrants, engkuk.

unlike your pakis, ours are domesticated and don't rule over us.

>mfw america literally is 3rd world

>mfw Bongland literally is Muslim

>ours are domesticated and don't rule over us.

Don't be so edgy and using terms for animals.

>says the nation with a literal kenyan muslim president

they are animals though.

in england they rule over the people, and commit legal rape.

this is because england is a shithole.

>David Cameron wishes a happy Ramadan every year
>Literally more Muslim than Obummer

>barack hussein m'bongo

ok lad

No not really that's just memes and if you are talking about the Rotterdam rapes the UK has a HUGE history of child abuse as well as criminals of all nationalities plying their trade in the UK.

rank as follows

non london england > scotland > london

rest of the uk is irrelevant

Don't forget British parliament being full of pedophiles and sodomites

The British government never really wanted an empire to begin with. It was usually the colonists who wanted to expand, and when they fucked up the crown had to step in and sort it out.

German here
I think Britain has a glorious past, and the rest of the world has to thank you for the industrial revolution.
The sadder it makes me to see how after Brexit, your country will be balkanized and become an irrelevant shithole

>become an irrelevant shithole
>become

Lol.

For every German car door that shuts a Japanese one opens.

The EU exports more to us then the other way round, we're going to play hardball in the trade negotiations and if you don't accept our terms then fine, the EU economy will be hurt worse than our's will be.

The union of the English and Scottish crowns started from a Scot.

>The EU exports more to us then the other way round
58% of your exports go to EU
I doubt that 58% of EU exports go to UK

>French
>dominate

You can't dominate your own streets lad, German is going to rule this continent.

>presenting it as a percentage rather than an actual figure.

This is from a pro-remain news source.

theguardian.com/business/2016/may/10/uk-trade-deficit-hits-new-record-of-24bn-pounds-eu-referendum-brexit

I don't mind England being kicked back into the irrelevance of Shakespeare's time, or even Alfred the Great's, so long as there is still an England.

Isn't percentage that what matters though?
EU is obiviously a far bigger economy than UK, so losing the same amout of money will hurt EU way less

What the fuck does this even mean, do you me a sovern state? That hasn't existed for hundreds of years, do you mean ethnic Anglos? Well we need immigrants due tot he aging population and the choice was between white Europeans and pakis and leaving the EU has ensured Pakis. Fucking mong.

what?
somebody wants to dismantle england?

>The British government never really wanted an empire to begin with. It was usually the colonists who wanted to expand, and when they fucked up the crown had to step in and sort it out.

This.
Settlers and colonists were the most entitled people ever which really made governing hard.

It's Leave voter logic, the entire thing was just a shout of English nationalism, I wish we had a referendum to leave the UK rather than leave the EU for the English to get their nationalist fix. We'd actually be better off without the Celts while in the EU.

>we need immigrants due to the aging population
Does anybody actually believe this meme? Please tell me then, what do we do when the immigrants get old? Import even more? Pray for some "human ingenuity"? What an utterly retarded statement
