      Probably the only reason Mexico hasn't taken it back is because they don't have a good army, their economy is weak and so is their government control.

      Yeah, I'm sure the Mexican government coddled them, gave them welfare, jobs, granted them amnesty, instituted an anchor baby policy, and had tons of infrastructure set up for the Americans to take advantage of, right? Oh wait, not at all.
      The difference is the Americans back then came in, planted their feet, fought with blood and steel, and won. Not all comparable to what is happening today.

    • @johncisney15
      @johncisney15 8 лет назад +5

      I would argue that stealing a country away from it's owners by subtle means, such as an illegal mass migration and racial subterfuge is every bit as barbaric as taking the land by force. Not only barbaric, but cowardly and underhanded.

    • @johncisney15
      @johncisney15 8 лет назад +7

      At least the American illegals had balls. They wanted the land and they let everyone know it. The modern Mexican illegals are just pussies. They want to take the land away from us just as badly as we did back then, but instead of being bold and honest about it (probably because they know we'd crush them in a heartbeat) they hide behind race and accuse everyone who disagrees with their illegal occupation of being racist. They are cowards who shield themselves with race and hide behind the weak-minded inferiors in our society that cater to them.

      actually there are thousands of american illegals in mexico, mostly retirees and it's much easier to navigate life in Mexico as an immigrant without proper documents than it is in the United States. if you get caught they don't deport you (unless you're being extradited for a crime in the u.s.) its just a fine (usually about $50)

      Republic of Kuwait is not here. The current,state that is a kingdom, (also the state before the Republic) exists. They are two different countries, constitutionally. And from a sphere of influence of other countries.
      Also the first time of independence for East Timor is the time they talk about annexation. Independence on 28th November 1975, full annexation did take from 7th December to 17th of July to complete the invasion. The second independence was in 2002

A bit of farming, some cattle ranching; making some tortillas and siesta. With the coming of the Americans, gold and silver were discovered. One of the most amazing engineering feats of the modern era, the transcontinental rail road was constructed. Farms that currently feed the world. Manufacturing and innovation that power the technological engine of the world. Gee ... do we want to go back to tortillas and siesta?

      It is now. But before, they were a Portuguese colonial territory. Then, they gain independence from Portugal in November 1975. Nine days after that, Indonesia invaded and occupied the country until their second independence in 2001.

      Tales of Catlington California was admitted to the United States as a state as opposed to a territory. This fact is reflected in the state's official seal which features the Roman goddess Minerva who was born as an adult.

      @mr.mysteriousspyman4016 6 лет назад

      The irony:
      Mexicans can also be referred to as "Americans" because they live in the Americas.
      I think USA-people need to come up with a unique demonym... There are Texans, Californians, New Yorkers... etc.
      Also, the country really needs a new name in general... I live in Australia and I don't think anyone ever calls it the "United States of Australia" (its official name is "The Commonwealth of Australia" but nobody ever calls it that either... some people call it "New Holland", though). In any case, Australia is the ONLY Australian country, so it doesn't matter.
      America, on the other hand, is a name that refers to three geographical regions, being North, Central and South America.
      Further still, the term "The South of America" is extremely confusing. I remember, as a little kid, I used to think the "Civil War between the North and South of America" referred to a war between the ENTIRE continent of the North and the ENTIRE continent of the South. Also, for some reason, I used to believe that the entire world was basically a Pangaea, with Mexico on the bottom border (probably because I was exposed to American maps... btw, this was when I was like 3-4 years old).

But the first time they ACTUALLY got independence was in 1918.
      They lost indepence in around 1944 and gained it back in 1991.

      The Faroe Islands are not independent, they are still a part of Denmark. East Timor is today independant but he is referring to the time they were independant between being a portugese colony and later being annexed by Indonesia.
      Kuwait exists and has for quite some time. But as a monarchy, "The state of Kuwait". The shortlived nation named "The republic of Kuwait" is a different country. Think how the German empire is different from the Weimar republic and Nazi Germany that both followed it. It's still germany, but separate nations.
