Supporting the Confederacy was very unpopular among the British people, so an embargo would have cost politicians their seats in Parliament.

A late response however I agree, originally it had nothing to do with slaves, it was purely economical.. And the South didn't actually want slavery despite what most people think it was just how their economy was ran, as unjust and cruel as it was. Nothing personal just business. However even after the Civil War Black people still had no right to vote or buy land/property, and as slaves at least they had shelter, food and clothing.

George Washington was a rich English guy, couldn't lose! We are family!

@@shyryTsr2k I mean, that’s a pretty watered down version of history. The civil war was about state’s rights verses a strong federal government. Slavery actually had a lot to do with it and the fact that President Davis first address mentioned slaver as the heart blood of the south kind of proves that it was a little bit about slavery. Not to mention the nearly 100 years of pro slavery “genetics” depicting the victims of slavery as subhuman being widely believed by the vast majority of the southern and northern populations. Black folks after the war in the north were able to find homes and jobs and the men and women in the south during the reconstruction era were just as screwed as the white folk. Reconstruction was a tough time and out of it grew two very distinct economies, a white one and a black one. Both grew very fast and very strong. Until Jim Crow and violence destroyed the former. Lincoln’s Freedmen’s Bureau did a great job of giving the newly freed men abandoned lands and teaching them business.

Germany has been the root of two world wars and is _again_ trying to centralize power in Europe.

@@oldskoolchomp81 lol, another guy thinking germany started wwI, when really, every major country in the war had a role

Mmm... that's true, but only to a point. The clearly approaching rivalry with the USSR certainly helped encourage continued strong ties. But unlike after WWI there could not be any great question of potential US-UK rivalry. The UK suffered horrific damage to its industries and infrastructure, while the US had vastly grown in both of those areas. The US also had, by that point, the largest and most powerful airforce in the world and a navy larger than the rest of the world's navies combined. If the relationship between the two nations had soured for some reason, the stark power disparity would have led to the US dominating the outcomes of whatever specific issues were being contested.

I mean, the US absolutely took every available chance to fuck over Britain post-war, but with things like the Marshall plan and a plethora of WW2 propaganda films showing how great they are, they managed to buy the loyalty of the public while in the shadows they worked harder than anyone to dismantle British colonialism and replaced it with American colonialism - them morally objecting to European control on the Suez Canal while themselves owning the Panama canal is a particularly funny point. Thing is, Britain at this point had been so messed up that the colonies were more of a lead weight dragging us down than any real benefit since we lost the structure needed to maintain order; we didn't struggle too much thus allowing the peaceful transfer of power. By the time that was over, we'd given the Americans too much to step away and we knew it was better to be their ally than enemy so we've stuck by their side ever since. Has to be said though, while the US government (much like our own parliament) seems to be in a neverending game of 'who can be the biggest asshole', there are few nations on Earth I'd rather call ally/friend/brother than the American people. Except when they export things like BLM protests here though (despite us having a totally different history of race relations) you guys can keep those kindof inter-community battles to yourselves if you don't mind! ;P

The REAL moment I think the Anglo-American alliance became pretty much permanent was the Korean War. Up until that point, Britain could have still tried to placed itself as the middle power between the US and Soviet Union, theoretically even acting as a mediator (after all, it was a Labour govt after World War II). When PM Clement Atlee announced Britain was joining America's coalition in stopping North Korea's invasion, all remaining possibility of being an in-between was gone (because now the Communists would view them as a full-on enemy) and Anglo-American ties would be reinforced. What makes Atlee's decision so astonishing is that not only did it go against many of Britain's foreign policy traditions, Korea was not even in the British sphere of influence (and really never had been). They were literally going out of their way to support this war effort. I'd say history was changed forever on that day in 1950.

No, I think the guy who runs this channel hit it pretty much on the head - the economic interests between the US and the UK have always been extremely strong. Even to this day, if you look at the five major English speaking countries, often called the "Anglosphere" - UK , US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand - between them they control over a quarter of the worlds wealth. Sure, the US is the worlds largest economy, but the UK is the 5th, Canada is the 10th, Australia is the 13th... To be perfectly blunt, almost the entire system of free trade that we have enjoyed (and brought immense wealth to most of the world) is on the back of Anglosphere efforts. Hell, one of the reasons why the US has such a huge military force is to just secure shipping lanes post WW2. The reality of the situation is that money rules the world and that these 5 countries are the core of the geopolitical alliance that controls most of that money and ensures that more can be made.

The Russians are great at uniting people...against them.

@@Delgen1951 wrong twat. The myth is that America came into the second world war. Which is crap. The day after the Japanese bombed pearl harbour Hitler declared war on America. They had no choice.

I think you need to look a little more closely. Since 1945, and especially since Vietnam, Congress have been limiting the powers of the President to act unilaterally. The Presidency is where any special relationship is vested, and the strength of that depends on each incumbent. In Congress, or at least the HoR, all is Pork Barrel. To mix the metaphors, the reason the USA has such an absurdly high level of military spending is because no Commander in Chief can take away one state's slice of apple pie to give to another, they just have to keep making the pie bigger. Thatcher-Reagan meant support during the Falklands, against the State Department. Blair-Clinton in contrast; Blair spent every cent of influence he had to engage the US in Yugoslavia, even after Srebrenica. In Ukraine, US/UK were together at the start trying to persuade the EU to wake up and smell the coffee, but Boris Johnson has had to act unilaterally many times now. It is not clear if that is a cover; acting as a surrogate and thus bypassing Congress, or genuine foot dragging by the White House. Also, NEVER forget Suez. The French and Israelis certainly haven't, I doubt if the Brits have either.

If the good ole monarchy hadn't kept messing with us like around 1812, US and Britain might have been friends again much earlier.

funny thing, this so called _special relationship_ . the US doesn't see anything special in their relation to the UK, only UK politicians use the term to assure themselves. some would say they are delusional. the US does its thing and when push comes to shove pursue their interests. there are numerous examples when the US ignored the UK, pushed aside the UK or their interests or bullied the UK - like they do with any other nation, allied or not. the US used the UK to derail any attempt by the French or Germans or anyone else to turn the ECC/EU into something the US disliked. get real and see it as it is: the US does realpolitik, countries have interests, not friends

@Reunite The British Empire Let me reword my original comment which I deleted because it was ass A'ight so Roosevelt was obviously not a neutral lover, he made it very evident that he really hated the Reich, wanted to support the allies, and wasn't keen on supplying the Reich nor its allies that much as well. He also hated the Japanese empire, disliking their expansionism into China as well as the rest of Asia and set an embargo on them to literally stall their entire oil supply. As for Pearl Harbor, it wasn't really intentional, yes those ships were moved there to basically tell Japan to fuck off but he wasn't actually expecting an attack like that and especially one of that scale, it costed the US a shit ton of battleships. At the same time though, deep down, he was thankful it happened because he could finally unite the country under a common enemy. The war inadvertently fixed A LOT of the country's major problems purtaining from the great depression, and because of the war the US would go on to become as powerful as it is today. Can't imagine a world where the fascists won, though being of German dissent and nearly Aryan i'm sure it wouldn't change much for me, but i'd rather the world be as it is now rather than that alternative.

@Reunite The British Empire Funny that you misused "whom".

Proud dad activated

What's the American overseas empire ? Liberia and Hawai ?

solwen yes American land and military bases all over the world japan Korea Philippines Germany Iraq etc. also Puerto Rico. As far as owning whole countries though no but huge sphere of influence.

@@solwen US has a big ass sphere of influence and a lot of military bases they use to project said influence. They dominate The Americas, most of Europe, and good chunks of Africa and Asia; Also it has a lot of territories in the Pacific Ocean and Puerto Rico and the US Virgin islands in the Atlantic.

Once again, a third party that both of them began to worry about... Russia.

The Fashoda Incident was the turning point.

We didn't like Germany. After that calmed down we both had colonial empires we were trying to maintain. I'd also stress that it's always been a matter of convenience rather than any particular affinity for each other, whereas while the Americans can be irritating at times we generally quite like them. I'm British fyi

Hating Germany. Really, Germany did a huge favor to world peace just by existing and ensuring everybody could come together and hate its guts.

yup, it’s crazy, you could have witnessed the civil war at 16 and witnessed ww2… scary, elderly ppl in 1990s parents saw the civil war live

Yes it's actually quite horrifying if think about it. The U.S. civil war was a gruesome mass carnage both caused by and rapidly increasing development of ever more carnage producing modern weaponry that WWI based itself on. None of these wars that are connected by most powerful technology of human history at that time and most rapid development of ever more powerful weapons in all human history, does not bode well for humanity. I often don't even want to think about U.S. civil war, WWI and WWII for this reason as these wars out of all other wars are the ones that brought us to capacity to destroy ourselves. These wars are not so long ago in this current blink of an eye.

@dopey no not realy

@dopey I mean that's not entirely true. WW1 erupted due to a complex alliance system, militarism, imperialism and rising nationalism in the Balkans. The real blame would be with the austro hungarians. Plus when the writing is on the wall and your surrounded by enemies you hit hard and fast. However as for ww2 fuck Germany.

India during the 2nd World War : But are we against the British or with the British ?

@@Mericaa47 calm your tits I'm sure he don't give af about the queen actually

Here here brother

Yeah you should. That's so baffling to me how two countries who were at each other's throats for 800 years, just improved relations within the last like 100 years.

I'll never stop hating the French, it's practically built into my British DNA.

Same answer: Germany

Probably after the franco-prussian war.

Your answer to that question is Germany and it’s sudden formation and rise. Overnight it became the most powerful country in Europe which would’ve seriously distributed the balance of power if they stayed allies with say Russia. Which would’ve basically guaranteed German dominance of the continent which Britain would not have so it started as a calculated move to ally with France and Japan to keep both Russia and Germany in check(especially after the Russo-Japanese War) and combined with the U.S Britain would be able to keep the balance. Of course Germany pissed off Russia and sent them right to Britain and France so the U.S and Japan became less important. That’s just my American persepective though so Europeans feel free to correct me on that.

Even if scientists could answer the question who is James Bisernett, is it a question that should be answered?

I prefer Rob Waterhouse

I'm old enough to know who Party Boy Co is........... Or old enough to think I know
