In Response To: Re: 1812 And On (Zoidberg) : Its amazing how things change. Once we (Britain) had an sphere of influence
Thats basically because we dont want to be colonialists or imperialists. Britain will forever be the country that domesticated the savage countries. India would still be in the pits if you all had not brought your education and technology. I dont think America wants to conquer anyone - we just want to be left alone to our business a la Washingtons isolationism. : And now we are Americas little "bitch", sticking with you guys side
Bah. Europe is a bunch of panty wastes anyway. Any continent that lets the French actually decide anything really isn't worth much at all. Now Germany, its a place you need to watch. Its starting to crawl out of its bad deal holes and try to get its act together. As a whole, the country has done well with the absorption of the East Germans - its not like it hasnt been rebuilt from ashes to a powerhouse before. Britain knows how to survive. Sometimes surviving means being someones bitch. Sure, you get to crawl in bed with us and be privy to special deals. Its not so bad. And you have quite a lot of influence over our policy as well - execpt the gun and death penalty deals. At least you aren't Frances bitch. No one wants to be a lesbian in this day and age - its so 1996. : I like the US. Sure I don't agree with everything that comes out of America,
No. We have a lot of non continent immigrants (Mexicans, Africans, Asians, South Americans). There are more non British immigrants than ever - far surpasing even the Irish. My family is British and German. We can trace our roots to the old country, country estates and cemetaries. My parents make us trek over to visit with pictures in hand. We eat sauerkraut on holidays and listen to anything British. I even wear Union Jack Dr Martens and trudge around in British Naval sweaters. : We understand each other (for the most part), we can count on each other for
I don't hate Britian. I mind Canada and France. Britain should completely release Canada to the French - so then we can all go invade New France and split the booty up and drive the Canadians back to the main continent! ::dons her night raid gear in anticipation:: -- Meg
