  6. It wasn't just making the universal language. The fact that the British Empire had been the largest economy and had the world's reserve currency[1] played a major role in the maintain Pax Britannica, and the British superpower. ______________________________ [1] Before being replace by the US dollar in the post-WW2 economy.

  7. Are you saying WWI and WWI caused the dissolution of the British Empire? The large amount of economic and military aid from the United States played a role in opening the British Empire markets and ending the monopoly Britain had on international trade.

  8.  @arthurwellesley1stdukeofwe890  Good for Britain. The British Empire and the US hegemony are nearly identical, and I wouldn't be surprised if they had been one country all along while deceiving the world.

  11. We good friends with the Brits, but with the exception of the Soviet Union at its height, no nation or empire in history has come close to size and influence of the United States. The US has an "informal empire," and if it had official colonies, all of the European Union, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Israel, Gulf Arab states, Turkey, South Korea, the Philippines, Ukraine, and the Americas (North and South) would be part of the "American Empire."

  14. The British Empire exported their language, economic system, trade routes, currency, common law, imperialism, insatiable appetite for oil, and distrust and suspicion of a Russia's ambition around the globe. Now we see where the US mastered the art of global hegemony and being the self-appointed "world's police."
