What people don't understand is we didn't go intentionally to gain an Empire, we went out to stop Empire's as so not to be a victim of an Empire. Rather do something or be swallowed up by an Empire. It was accidental but essential. Out of all historical Empires we were the most enlightened and progressive Empire ever. We learnt as we went on what was wrong and right. The people finally had their say. We eventually did what was right in many aspects and many areas of the world. 🇬🇧

You could always start with the truth and not try and make the empire a benevolent system because it was far from that I heard the estimates of mortality because of the British Empire up to 800,000,000 you know

Britain was curious about the wider world, really is that what they sold the public at the time, and they had a legitimate claim for stealing other peoples land, according to this shit hole, Egypt doesn’t even have a legitimate claim to get it, antiquities back, Britain thinks that the law it created about not being able to give the antiquities back to Egypt actually stands, and they can use it to stop Egypt, taking back their stuff, the same about African antiquities, and even some of the disgusting stuff, like the tribal chiefs head was removed and placed in certain museums, And this happened a lot, the British would conquer an empire up another country, a weak country, a tribal country. The leaders would have their heads removed and brought back for you. No amusement for the entitlement class. Imagine that other people just like they do to the other creatures on the planet, the super rich and entitlement class want to turn everyone and everything into a slave. What a bunch of thieves, and they call him self civilised.

Slavery was abolished because of the Jamaican rebellions, not because of colonialist morality.
