Do you have victory arches honouring the American Revolution in your /cunt/ ?
A victory arch celebrating your defeat ?
>>220263657You are mistaken
BasedThe American Revolution was English Civil War 2
>>220265365It's interesting how this is pretty much the earliest and oldest monument to Revolutionaries' victory, and it's in some quiet corner of England. Apparently, the British government offered to buy it and ship it to America for the 150th (or 200th?) anniversary of 1776 but the Yanks said no lol
>>220266055Its older than any American monuments? If so that it is odd. It's funnier that it's in the UK though, no one would think anything about it if it were here until someone says it was from the England.Reminds me of the London bridge that was taken and reassembled stone by stone to some place in Arizona.
>>220262509no mu cunt is a victoryarchlet but i have seen one in rome they are really cool. come to think of it monuments that honours certain battlevictories is ultra cool. lord nelsons column in trafalgar square is a bit underwhelming but still stylish but they could have made it more grand
>>220262509Yes, and we also have a monument dedicated to the fate of the native american women during colonial times as well.
>>220266532You went through all that fucking trouble to place it between 3 parking lots
>>220266532>>220267413What the hell were we thinking topkek
>>220267452it was a private developer. He thought that he was buying the iconic Tower Bridge.
>>220262509no but we gave them a statue
>>220267704Whole new meaning of I have a bridge to sell you
>>220262509Sort of. Each sword represent a king and they fought against one another to make Norway a nation.
>>220262509Unrelated, but the relationship Spain has with its former colonies is nothing like the one between the UK and its former colonies.It's somewhat enviable.
>>220266532It was built in 1783
>>220268384Well apart from America the UK still controlled us by the 1950s. How is it for you guys.
>>220268384Quebecoids seethe about us, though they do seem to reserve most of their hatred for Anglo-Canadians rather than actual Englishmen
>>220268499Even in the 19th century, some colonies remained in Africa, but significant diplomatic relations were never maintained with any of them.For obvious reasons, it's easier to establish a brotherhood with the former Spanish-speaking colonies, although politically, neither side is interested in deepening the relationship because we're both rather powerless. Even so, I think we are better than the frogs and their former territories
>>220262509No. We have an arch that celebrates our city being subjugated to Moscow
>>220269978tell us more
>>220270007What's there to tell? We have an arch that was built to celebrate Alexander I ten year ruling anniversary in 1813. They look out at what used to be called Moscow tract, so they were called Moscow gates.There was a second arch in Irkutsk, but it was demolished and never reconstructed, it was on the place where a babr statue stands now.
