Real life user.

Ask the dannish about their fleet.

Practically every interaction they had with Ireland
t. Irishman

Munich 1938

It's a french and francboo slander, there aren't many, if any, nations more likely to respect and uphold agreements, treaties, and commitments.

Self interest

Not even just the Catholic Irishmen either. Ulstermen are the ultimate cucks, because every time England betrays them to cut a deal with the Catholics instead.

9 is funny though, Germans perfidiously invade vast swathes of Europe, vast swathes of France perfidiously surrender, Britain staying true sinks the fleet at Oran less it be seized by the Nazis.

12 is literally the foreign secretary meeting with the head of another country...

The whole Chinese Opium market should be a perfidy listing

As with most negative things associated with Britain, the French are responsible. You see the English were once upon a time an extremely sincere people but all that changed when cheeky Willy trolled them to near extinction beginning with his pretend retreats Hastings and ignominiously replacing their nobility with frogs. So all this anti-Anglo propaganda is especially hurtful because the Anglos themselves were the first casualties of the perfidity they are accused of.

Also nice triples btw.

>You see the English were once upon a time an extremely sincere people
The first thing English people ever did was betray their employer and the rightful king by murdering him and his companions at a dinner he threw for the English people.

it was not against the custom of the time to force people to buy drugs.

>rightful king
Tyrant you mean.

Read about the Black Legend. A whole nation, that used to be one of the most powerful and proud in the continent, made into the Bufoon of Europe. Even inside it's own borders. All thanks to perfidious anglo propaganda.

English autism in relation to Ireland is the reason we lost them.

As for
>muh nazis

The Irish govt. considered those collaborating with nazis as retards. Ireland was very pro-allies in WW2.

I don't know about others but concerning my country Greece they played a very negative role after WWII in starting the Greek civil war which could have been resolved peacefully. What they did is essentially betray Greek resistance fighters because they were leftists, and empowered Nazi collaborationists, all because Churchill was a paranoid power hungry maniac and was promised Greece in the Yalta conference by Roosevelt and Stalin.

You know, for every villain, there is a tragic origin story usually involved.
