our country was small too - a little island nation. what does size have to do with it? does it not say something that a tiny island-state like britain could own the world, whereas a tiny state like yours was under the thumb of a bunch of other people (e.g. socialist yugoslavia) up until very recently? pillaging, killing and conquering is PART of empire and i can ASSURE you that britain was FAR from the worst culprit. the dutch, french and spanish empires were all more brutal than the british at different points of history. are we proud of the forced coercion of empire? no. are we proud of the fact that a small nation of a relatively small-population got off its ass and became an economic, political and military superpower? yes.

See here was the difference between your and my country- we would rather suffer and be a small non-important country than to make other nations suffer and become a superpower on their expense.

I'd rather have power and get bitched about then get fucked in the ass all day by my neighbors.

You seriously gotta loose that Sponge bob pyjamas and start taking it like a man. Don't be comparing a tiny country like mine that only got independence in 1991 to a huge superpower like yourselves once were, that's a desperate attempt. Listen to yourself- "a much better run in pillaging and killing and conquering than your country"? Seriously? Are you guys still proud of all that?

Is that a unified opinion? Does the government and people share this thought?

Or is it justifying irreleventness.

We've been relagated to mediocrity in the geopolitics and political influence catagories now. When will slovenia rise to join us?

Yes. England prevails. God save the queen.

I get why people defend their own country in these debates, but I never got what was in it for the instigator.

never got why so many ppl say " god save the queen " ................. ever wonder if gods thinking " fuck that hoe "

England is lucky to have such a strategic position. Its really easy to defend if you so far away from mainland and surrounded by water. I think if England was where France was we would be talking about "Battle of France" now and German officers would be drinking tea in England.
