Why did it fail?
>>219828117Too much worthless land/worthless subjects.
too cocky
behold ... the awe-inspiring american "empire"
>>219828117Made a deal with the devil (jews)
>>219828190You are an imperial subject.
>>219828190Lmao
>>219828327cheers for the map showing you don't even have most of your own continent (we do) kek
>>219828381Yet. Canada won't exist as a seperate entity by the end of the century. We kept our empire, where's yours?
>>219828117Trying to uphold a system rooted in oppression whilst not carrying out ruthless oppression/genocide. >>219828327America can be this big, not because they are any nicer, or people "want" to be part of them. But because they killed all the natives so there's nobody left to object.
>>219828117In what way did it fail? It brought wealth, trade, education, medicine, railroads, rule of law, property rights, trial by jury, habeas corpus, presumption of innocence, roads, courts, hospitals, granaries etc to vast swathes of the world which had never know such things. It was far and away the best and most successful empire that ever existed.
>>219828433>Trying to uphold a system rooted in oppression whilst not carrying out ruthless oppression/genocide.All Africans were more oppressed under their new governments. Most Indians were as well.It was mindless nationalism fomented by the western educated upper classes - the only ones who could actually profit from the enterprise by pillaging the state's resources.Which isn't to say the Empire was perfect. God no. But it was 9 times out of 10 better than what replaced it, and the only reason people don't acknowledge this is the inane universalisation of American Republican values - sublime, in a specific place, with a populace and elite of a sufficient education and knowledge, but absurd elsewhere.
>>219828327That's not the epic own you think it is. It is in fact a backhanded compliment.
>>219828117Run and administrated by subhuman angloids
>>219828550A benevolent overlord imposed by others is fundamentally more oppressive, than a brutal dictatorship of your own people.
>>219828432>Canada won't exist as a seperate entity by the end of the centurytwo more weeks
>>219828573You don't live in 1830, jacking off over what was is a cope since you'll never experience it.
>>219828117Women. >Women given right to vote >Woman becomes ruler>Greatest empire of all time immediately collapses
>>219828432>Canada won't exist as a seperate entity by the end of the century.Correct
>>219828117Germany derangement syndrome
>>219828433>uphold a system rooted in oppressionIn what way?
>>219828117because you simply can't hold such a huge territory spread over multiple continents, especially when some of these territories have much larger population than you.
