Don't. They'll give you free land, but at a cost. Their mayor has been convicted for child abuse (rape). He was incarcerated in New Zealand for a few years. On top of that the entire island has been inbreeding, I wouldn't trust the people there at all to be honest.

That's true. 'Britain' is the largest of the islands (ie England, Scotland and Wales).

Yes it's not like the French overseas territories with the "départements" (part of France without autonomy: all the territories but not Polynesia and Caledonia) and the "collectivités" (part of France with autonomy, a kind of protectorate: Polynesia and Caledonia).

InternationalSongs The Channel islands although a crown dependency is like an autonomous region of the UK. You guys have been left alone to make your own laws and trade agreements ect, however the UK technically owns you. You cannot declare independence and create a separate nation, the Queen is your head of state above all else.

internationSongs, OH NO THEY AREN'T!!!!

Specifically the 3 dependencies are Dependencies of the Crown of England. Of course the "Crown of England" is subsumed in the Crown of the UK. The Monarch holds positions in the Dependencies because (s)he is Queen of England rather than of the whole of the UK. Elizabeth II is Duke of Normandy (in union with England) and that part of the Duchy of Normandy in Union with the Crown of England is the Channel Islands (the two Bailiwicks) and their dependencies (ie. Sark)

@@veggiesupreme3556 Not True Actually, prior to his final defeat at the battle of the nations in 1813Napolean was offered to remain as Emperor of France, however only within Frances natural borders. It wasn't until Napoléon Returned to France in violation of his exile did the Coalition decide the French wouldn't be able to keep conquered territory in Belgium and Italy. Remember all the dudes at the Congress of Vienna were either monarchs or related to monarchs so killing another monarch would set up a bad precedent.

""Britain"" is an island. The sovereign state is the United Kingdom, although technically the crown colonies aren't "part" of the United Kingdom, but essentially, you have not visited Britain, but you have visited the UK.

XP_Studios thanks for clearing that up, I always get confused on the England, vs Britain, vs United Kingdom part of things.

@@xp_studios7804 Great Britan is an island, not Britan

Mack T It's because they mostly left without much violent resistance. whereas france sent their military to algeria to retake it, spain had the communist revolutions, and the netherlands didn't really have any land that wasn't plundered by japan

You'll remarck that the ones you mentionned are made of settled UK populations; the rest of them are poorer ( India, Pakistan, ...) just like the French, Spanish, etc ones that are made predominantly of local populaions (Algeria, Bolivia, ...)

Mack T thats not true, and the countries conquered by Spain and Portugal were conquered to steal their resources( and shit, they stole a fucking lot), the UK conquered rather more for land and strategic points.

yeah but all the British colonies don't have many of their native people left because they were killed.

Henry Goodall here they were also killed, the only American country that has some local people is Paraguay, but in the other cases i think it is pretty leds than 1% of the population

William Scott so what, that was the empire of the past, the current people of Britain did not commit those ‘atrocities’ that was done by generations gone by and the current empire is that of the present not the past.

thebrit:ace 93 it’s not really an empire anymore though is it? I very much doubt the original comment meant that they were proud of a few islands scattered over the world. They were referencing when Britain reached 25% of the worlds landmass.

Depends of what part of Britain your from. There's like 100 accents for a small island like wtf happened you can't find a town that has the same accent as another town or city.

Some are informal and some aren't. You got an mancoonian (Manchester) accent which is informal as hell and then a London accent which is quite varied (the "drunk man" and the "rich posh plonker"

That´s a lie, the first humans in the islands were from France, then it came the British, but the terrotory was from France. Then France gave the terrotory to Spain. After that, a few years later Argentina was an independent country in 1816, so they gained the territory colonized by Spain, which that means Falklands were Argentinian at that point. In 1833 UK invaded Falklands and usurped the islands.

Falkland islands claimed for Queen Elizabeth by John Davys 15c explorer and navigator. Feel free to check this.

you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about...

@@abelnicolae Wow, that's a cogent argument..

@@Videosss-ei1dx Nope, British were the first humans to ever step foot on the islands and first to claim them. Captain John Strong of the HMS Welfare On 27 January 1690. Also, Spain did not give the Islands to Argentina. When Spain left after their own attempt at colonial aggression, Argentina claimed them them by right of.... more colonial aggression. But Britain were the first humans, the first claimants and continually defended their sovereignty for hundreds of years. Then in 1850 Argentina formally renounced its claim in the Arana-Southern treaty and didnt mention it again for another hundred years until it was dredged up for use as a political diversion.

Yep most of the important islands for projecting power in the world are still possessions of the great powers.
