@hoppuss44 I believe that hoppuss44 is not referring to the internet or cancer treatments when he says that Britain has gotten backwards. What he wants I think is a return to patriotism, when life was simpler because England was right, ships were wood, men were iron, and "of course" the only thing to do was amputate. Even if the age was not ideal, it is idealized; he draws culture from it, and wants to be closer. It may not have been a better time for most people, but try to understand him.
the english never invaded the netherlands with 150000 men, more like 30000 if that, they couldnt afford it , get it right. Had cromwell had his way holland would be nothing but a mere province of England
@pilon693 Well lucky he didn't get his way then, better if he hadn't had his way at all, he killed a king you know... a king.. under God, no doubt he rots in hell, he was far to brutal.
the dutch had as much ships as england and france + 3000 ships. 1/3 of the ships in the worlds were dutch. oo and when england invade the netherlands with their entire fleed and 150000 men michiel de ruyter destroyed them all when at the same time france came over land with 240000 we only had 60000 men and we routed the armies of france. supreme power was the united provinces. no questioning about it. we won 7 seawars from england. and at the end. the new king of england was DUTCH.
Ye your right, but the england was more world dominant. The dutches avoided wars and conflict which led to their massive armies. They were excellent tradsmen.
Due to globalization of economy, i.e. the interlinking of capital around the world, world's wealth is increased and is spread to where the economic growth is fastest. Britain may no longer be the superpower she once was, but the financial she built allowed her to continue to grow and to help other developing countries grow even faster.
@hoppuss44 Wtf? You want to return to the eighteenth century, where there was no medication for diseases, most people lived in poverty while others were rich, and your country fought pointless wars with other countries just because they wanted more land. Perhaps you SHOULD go back and save us from idiots like you.
@DarthVista stupidest thing i've ever heard. go to a country without any of the accommodations you currently posses, and then try telling me that living in a period with even less luxury than that is better.
