fucking exceptional

It's a satirical swipe at the British character that shows how, in the pursuit of wealth and power, it has robbed other nations of their pride and national wealth.

The part about slaves was incorrect. They were traded for guns and sugar and clothing. The british did not raid villages for slaves but it was still wrong and im happy it stopped

Even though many bad things happened because of the British Empire, without it we wouldn’t have many of the amazing things we take for granted today.

Whut? Dude, we got rid of the pope over 500 years ago.

[Arina Obuchova]

very true....... i think people of egland must take responsibility over the mistakes of their ancestors and personally apologise to all the nations, and pay them back.

english people you have a job to do. u must throw over the monarchy, get rid of qween, greater city of london and the pope.... and become a sovereign nation. oh by the way... people of england must fight to get their troops out as u guys are still in the war.

This is so accurate it is freaky. Britain was only one imperialist power. The US and most of Europe were too. We here in the US messed up South and Central America And some of the Middle East. But that is nothing compared to what Europe did to Africa and the Middle East. I had no idea it was physically possible to permanently ruin an entire continent like that.

This Joanna Quinn sounds like a real authority on British history! I wish we were all as clever as her. I just love the original approach she provides. Bleurgh.
