        We’re all sitting on conquered land. Up until Western democracies came on to the scene, the idea of giving up hard won territory was considered lunacy. The Brits were also one of the firsts to take a stand against the eons old practice of slavery, enforced by the Royal Navy.

        John O’Dwyer Noonan, actually! I mean I think The Treaty is a great exception, along with the Rhodesians who unilaterally declared independence from the Crown for very bad reason.

        Ok ok I’m going to confess that you should *never* use “all” when there are some key examples to the contrary. Also “gave” not “give!” Was thinking Atlee, Wilson, Winds of Change, Dominions, etc and so forth. Sloppy. I know! But I’m just living for the replies so tweet stays 😂

        Hey a thoughtful reply. I mean this is the crux of the debate right? Post WWII did they act out of altruism or necessity? You read Winds of Change and it’s about necessity.
