Why are the former British colonies much more successful than the former Spanish and Portuguese ones?

Why are the former British colonies much more successful than the former Spanish and Portuguese ones?

...

We already discussed this
Only the four in which the British genocided natives and replaced them with whites (USA, Canada, Australia, NZ) are successful
The 200 others (80% of the empire) are utter shitholes (Bengladesh, Zimbabwe, Sudan, Iraq, Afghanistan, India, Guyana...etc)

Spaniards despised manual work, the king forbade colonies to trade with other countries, set a racial caste system and imposed strict censorship on books and religious intolerance. As a result the local elites were very narrow minded.

They were also sparsely inhabited and lacking in exploitable resources. The land required that people invest time and effort in development so you see the generation of wealth rather than a constant sum or negative sum extractive economy.

> genocided natives
Zero evidence for this.

They aren't.

Two initially similar colonies, Macau and Hong Kong. Are both still similarly successful today.

It's not a question of British or Spanish. Literally the only factor in whether or not a colony is a shithole is whether or not its white.

All nonwhite British colonies are shitholes, all white British colonies are great places. Same for Spain. Compare Argentina to say Sudan. The former is Spanish colonized but far superior to Sudan because Argentina has loads of white people while Sudan doesn't.

Hong Kong?
The Bahamas?
Singapore?

Buffalo soldiers

Literally city-states

I wonder who could be behind this post...

For the same reason UK is more succesful than Spain. the spanish are very corrupt and spread that to their colonies.

This

Settlement colonies vs resource exploitation colonies

that's it

>Implying Spanish colonies aren't actually doing better than most brit colonies

>genocided natives
Those faggots should've been more evolutionarily prepared for the diseases. Survival of the fittest immune system

Hong Kong and Singapore are Asian, they obviously don't count.

Bahamas is a shit hole

Spaniards infested their colonies with Catholicism.

Protestant work ethic :^)

People like to make up some meme reason to fit their beliefs.

Not sure but I think there are racial and cultural reasons.
