As more and more British colonies demanded independence, the UK resorted to some desperate tactics to stop them leaving.

Begging America to come back was absolutely hilarious 😂
The Americans were the ones who kept asking the British if they could use their colonies to perform operations during this time, yet whenever the British tried to do literally anything the Americans always interfered and messed things up. Not saying that the colonies were a good thing, god no they were horrible affronts to both legal and moral standards, but a large reason the British Empire fell was intentional and unintentional American sabotage.

@@Madhuwellness no because it was more a joke to America because they were very racist at the time. BP sat with white people and used the same bathrooms etc. Britain never actually tried to prove that it wasn’t racist because it never needed to because of the British conquest against slavery, in which Britain abolished slavery throughout the world, even going to war with countries who disagreed with them just to be rid of it.

@@funtimeflorian1643 The word "football" actually originates from that fact that you play it *ON* foot, not *WITH* your foot. It has that name to distinguish it from other sports like polo which are played on horseback.
Also, the word "football" by itself actually refers to a whole family of sports, not a single sport. Just like "hockey" can mean either field hockey, ice hockey, or roller hockey, "football" can also mean a lot of different things.
Historically, the word has been used to refer to association football (soccer), rugby league football (league), rugby union football (rugby), gridiron football (American football), Australian rules football (footie), Gaelic football (Gaelic) and many others.
@@Oneandonly1225 I was over simplifying a bit - the full definition of football-sports are any sports played on a grassy field on foot with the goal of transporting an object-ball to the other end.
Neither volleyball not basketball are played on a field.
Volleyball falls into the category of "net sports," which are defined by the fact that they're played with the opposition divided by a net that they rally an object over.
Basketball is a more unique sport, so it isn't part of a larger category of sports. It's not considered a football sport because despite being played on foot, it's not played on a field. And it's not considered a net sport because despite having nets, they don't separate the teams.
@@Oneandonly1225 your argument is to ignore every word he said? Bloody solid mate.
@@Oneandonly1225 "Excuses"?
What?
What exactly am I trying to excuse?
I was just sharing some fun facts. I didn't even realize you were trying to argue with me until this moment.
Do you actually trying to "win" every conversation you take part in? That's genuinely hilarious.

“Missiles that fortunately exploded mid air” is a crazy way to describe fireworks

@@krieggfn3896 Ok, then what? What do you do the day after?
@@larshofler8298 Found a country that eclipses the tea-sender in relevance.
@@AlashiaTuol Ok, but it looks kinda just like the old country... I meant that nothing new was created in the aftermath of the supposed revolution.
@@larshofler8298 Well, the US was the first large scale democracy since Rome. It doesn't seem that revolutionary now because, in the way of superpowers in the modern age of globalization, its culture has washed over a lot of the world by way of its merchants and ambassadors, including over the UK, which has itself changed its attitudes towards government in the meantime. Also, time has changed both countries away from the circumstances they were in after the revolution. The actual differences are manyfold but in many areas of life, so it'd take a more complex discussion. But when the revolution first occurred? The difference in the way of life for those who lived in the former colonies was huge.
As for "new," I'm a bit confused as to why that's the focus. Plenty of things were different; the point of a revolution is change, after all. The only "new" thing the revolution sought to create was a new government, which still exists and is *very* different from the UK's.
But regardless, the point is, the tea sender is now irrelevant and the world has proven it doesn't need them.

This hits differently now that the queen is dead
Uhh not really? Nothing in this video is about the Queen!
@@MerkhVision the British king/Queen grants assent to legislation, approves orders and proclamations through the privy council. Elizabeth became Queen in 1952. The first subsaharian country TOOK its independence(it wasn't given out of philanthropy)in 1957. The Queen was well aware of the thievery that was going on, and she never acknowledged nor apologised for the scourge of British colonialism.
@@NyamisB Never mind
@@ronaldlymm7248 I think you're tagging the wrong person.
@@NyamisB In fairness though, it's not like us British are the only ones that have ever done shit like this. Pretty much every colonial country has done all sorts of bad shit to other countries. We tend to get the most stick for it though.
Although I will say that the majority of people love to conveniently omit the fact that many of these countries wouldn't be anywhere near as well off now if not for the British rule. Just look at how we'll Singapore and Hong Kong has done since.

There's a science behind the creation of countries and why countries leave.
It has a lot to do with diversity, groups that aren't represented will typically branch off into their own in-group and eventually try to square off some territory for their own interests.
Countries like great Britain and the Ottoman empire fell apart due to stress applied to their territories which were largely occupied by unrepresented minority groups.
Now read your comment again to understand why diversity is BS. We must stop it in the west.
The British empire fell apart because their colonies were a massive financial burden and it wasn't worth putting down independence movements
