I just realized how small the U.K. is compared to the u.S. It's kind of crazy.

Some of them no longer. Like South Africa, Zambia, India. It's why we have independence days. We broke free of Britain Rule.

I can see Canada and Australia still saluting to the queen but they
broke their ties ties too.

Wow, so many countries that you guys took over and they all severed ties to you.

It makes us think about war in today's terms so differently. Back then it was conquer and claim. Now it's conquer, give back the country to the people and retreat.

I don't think we'll ever seen another country takeover in our lives.

Nah, we still own and control them, we just make them think they control themselves.


Yeah, the Empire was pretty much given back in 20 years of liberal politics. Quite impressive imo.

And now the africans come begging to us for money because they are unable to look after themselves. They should of stayed under our rule.

See I wouldn't like that for the exact same reason as I wouldn't like Jerusalem. I think it has to be a song which is inclusive of the UK as a whole, not just one particular country of the UK.
