Why did Brits win and the spanish lose?
Protestantism is true Christianity and Romanism is false Christianity so God was with them and against the Spaniards

>>18486209Brits were forced to innovate, Spain was comfortable with the lucky hand they were given.
>>18486234>Elizabethan England sent billions to Israel o algo
>>18486288Israel is a pet project of early 20th century British policy in the ME. So yeah, you are indeed the paypigs of kikes.

>>18486209because the industrial revolution happened (but not in spain)
Win/lose what exactly? Both are peripheral Europoid states today.
Fact: Spics were so buckbroken by the British that they put their coat of arms on their special liberation banner. The spic king would later gift hundreds of paintings the French stole to the Duke of Wellington, for he knew who his master was.
>>18486445Britain captured Habana and Manila 20 years after that but Spaniards hate talking about it.
>>18486209Because Britain had the Channel to protect them from Napoleon's wrath, while Spain didn't
>>18487046>Britain captured Habana and Manila 20 years after that but Spaniards hate talking about it.Not really:Havana: The military and human cost and the effort required were disproportionate to the enormous numerical advantage the British had (twice as many ships and almost three times as many troops). And it took them two months.Manila: They took advantage of the fact that the Spanish authorities in the Philippines were unaware of the outbreak of war between the two powers, so the city was not prepared for a siege (Spain entered the Seven Years' War late to help France).
>>18487197>No, but yesIt's always the same responses with you, guys. "Yeah, we got raped but at least we left some shit on their dicks." "Yeah, we lost. But that's because we were unprepared, despite being the ones who declared war on Britain to help our French daddies."
>>18486209They didn't, the last war between Britain and Spain ended in a Spanish victory.And if you're talking about today Spain is a better country than Britain by most metrics.

>>18488516My brother in Christ, Spain was strongly impoverished by the war, and was greatly in need for something to set off economic development.Spain was, of course, defenseless after the war, since Franco's 2 big allies in the region, Hitler and Mussolini, were both dead. His only options were to either try to warm up with the communists (whom he'd fought during the Spanish Civil War), or to ally with the anti-communist capitalist countries (who had just recently been killing his fascist and Nazi allies, but were nevertheless enemies of atheistic communism just like him).On a side note, as far as I can recall, most of Spain's industries were traditionally concentrated in the Basque Country and Catalonia, very far from the famed Alhambra that George Washington Irving had praised in the mid-19th century, so all of those beaches (balnearios) were really mostly built along sleepy fishing towns and minor ports on the southern coast of Spain and the Balearic Islands (traditionally known mostly for being inhabited by fishers and shepherds). As idyllic as the idea of being a small agricultor on the coast of the Mediterranean might seem, back in those days, there weren't many hospitals or good schools in rural Andalusia or the Balearics, so obviously it wasn't exactly comfortable rural life, unlike, say, living in rural Denmark might be nowadays. Therefore, what Franco's government did by inviting foreign investors into places like war-torn Marbella (a town that, by the way, had iron furnaces that unfortunately closed due to an economic crisis back in 1893, and that, after some episodes of anti-clerical violence and heavy bombarding by the Luftwaffe, was left with only 900 inhabitants by the 1940s) and Palma de Mallorca (a small commercial port with some old marine defenses back in the 1940s, which had just been freed from Italian military occupation).t.

>>18487197In the end, we all die, we all lose (empires too). The only thing that matters is how you behaved, whether you acted honorably, regardless of victory or defeat.
>>18488516>>18488553To continue with this:Franco's government, although known for its human rights abuses (and rightfully so), also helped bring in foreign capital into Spain in many forms. Marbella went from being a village of 900 people to being a large beach resort town that brought in Saudi royals, German aristocrats, and even members of the British royal family. While in retrospect it may not seem like such a good idea to make Spain overly dependent upon tourism, at the time (1950s/1960s), before the rise of no-frills airlines, Marbella was essentially the Spanish version of what Nice and the Cote d'Azur had been at one point.There were other ways in which foreign capital was brought into Spain, such as through the purchase of land for the Torrejón Air Base, that was used by the United States Air Force from 1958 till 1992. Spanish companies like car maker SEAT S.A. often collaborated with foreign companies for the development of products for the Spanish market (in SEAT's case, with Italian car-making company Fiat to develop cars such as the SEAT 1400 and the SEAT 600).The 1950s and 1960s also saw lots of shantytowns and slums ("chabolas") in Madrid and other large cities be replaced by rows of apartment buildings. This, coupled with the construction of more schools and hospitals across Spain, helped improve living standards for many lower-class people in Spain.In conclusion, while Franco's Spain was not necessarily a time of true freedom, it did establish the conditions for economic progress that would allow for Spain to level itself up to the rest of Western Europe by the time it ascended to the European Union.
