@benjaminjohnsonboston 'how many countries has Great Britain invaded'
Over it's ENTIRE history, lots! At the height of its empire, almost a quarter of the world succumbed to British rule. Yet this figure is dwarfed when time is disregarded and the British empire's incursion record is viewed as a whole. Over its history, a new study found, Britain has invaded almost 90 percent of the world's countries.
Of course, you'll attempt to use this, ancient history, going back hundreds & hundreds of years, to 'score' some silly 'points' to somehow justify a point, you have yet to make.
Let's be crystal clear, ALL countries have 'skeletons in their closets'. Lenin & Stalin killed an estimated 60 million of their own citizens. Japan had an atrocious record for barbaric treatment of prisoners of war, INCLUDING testing biological/chemical weapons on them in unit 731 in Pingfang. Germany, as everybody knows, started WW1 & WW2, and was responsible the the mass extermination of 6 million Jews. The list could go on, ad infinitum.
There comes a point, when history needs to be left, in the past. Germany & Japan have been 'forgiven' their past mistakes, and now have trade deals with the rest of the world, worth many billions, they are friends & trading partners of most of the greatest nations.
Great Britain, from the middle decades of the 17th century, and through the 18th century, the Royal Navy vied with the Dutch Navy and later with the French Navy for maritime supremacy. From the mid-18th century until the Second World War, it was the world's most powerful navy.
Most countries have 'moved on' from past mistakes, all of them have made.
What is happening today, cannot be justifiable be compared to 'ancient' history. Unless, of course, it's to score some silly 'points' in the comments section of YouTube.
Go ahead, make your point! 😂
