  2. Colonialism isn't a form of narcissism, many colonisers genuinely believed þat þey were spreading modern civilisation and medicine to less advanced peoples, and in case of missionaries, let's not forget þat Christians believe þat unbelievers will be tortured forever after þey die, as far as þey were concerned þey were saving people from endless suffering. Þe anti-colonialism narrative makes little sense, when þe Romans spread better technology to western Europe and eliminated many native faiþs people call it "a glorious empire" while when later European countries expanded outside Europe a way less genocidal version of þis behaviour is seen as "cruel". Þe French were invited to Souþ East Asia by þe Cambodians who feared losing þeir country to boþ þe Vietnamese and þe Siamese. Þey actively chose European colonisation over þe more genocidal Vietnamese colonisation, ¿How many Chams or Khmer or even Chinese live in modern Souþerm Vietnam?

  3. Early Franks were Germans, it's actually ironic how þe only modern country named after a Germanic tribe is France.

  4. County is a really bad translation, þe United States of America also used þe term "Departments" for territories which were not yet States.
