Admiration and respect for the British Foot Guards.

This channel consists of playlisted videos comprising the British Foot Guards from the Changing of the Guard Ceremony at Buckingham Palace & Windsor Castle to the Trooping of the Colour & the Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

Do note that people from around the world have taken and uploaded these videos, I take no credit.

------------------------------
How a tiny little island gained the biggest empire in all of human history also created the modern world.

Britain has produced between 40% and 54% of all major inventions and discoveries of the modern world, compared to the USA's 25%, and Japan's 7%.

'Inventors' of English language, one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. Over 3000 years of civilisation history and the largest Empire in Human history.

Newtonian physics (discovery of gravity), the theory of evolution, the discovery of DNA, the invention of the steam engine, the industrial revolution, the invention of the telephone, the invention of the television, the invention of the electric motor, the invention of the internal combustion engine, the invention of the world wide web, the invention of the first computer, invention of colossus the world's first programmable, digital, electronic, computer, invention of jet propulsion, the invention of the tank, invention of the periscope, invention of the torpedo, the invention of the aircraft carrier, the invention of radar, the invention of the hovercraft, the invention of the tyre, the invention of the Concorde (Anglo-French), split the atom, invention of the penicillin, the mother of industrialisation (Britain, world's first industrialised country), inventor of capitalism, inventor of modern transportation systems (trains, train systems, buses, bus services, airports), invention of modern roads (tarmac).

The British Army has not lost a major conflict in its five hundred year history and it was the backbone to the largest Empire on the earth ever.

The British Army is without any shadow of a doubt the World's best trained and combat experienced army of either the ancient or the modern world. It has participated in far more wars than the whole of the rest of the World's armies put together and that is a historical fact.

The Royal Navy is the oldest navy in the world. Even today, in terms of gross tonnage, it is the second largest navy in the world.

Oh yes, we were also the first country to stop slavery in 1807, the US stopped it 60 years later.

Britain is a perfect example of the saying size does not matter.

United Kingdom

Actually, the British Empire ended slavery around the time of the American Revolution, if I remembered correctly; African slaves were granted freedom in exchange for fighting for the Empire. Many of them fled to Nova Scotia during the Revolution.

Aside from that, sweet page.

Since you know a lot about the Armed Forces I was going to ask you something: did you know that the MoD is supposed to be disbanding the Coldstream Guards due to cuts? Do you really think it will happen?
