The British Empire gave the world steam engines, railroads, modern medicine and hospitals, and a host of other things. The American Empire has given the world television and the internet, along with smartphones, but what else?
Which has had the greater influence?
How does the American Empire stack up against the British Empire?
The US also gave the world skyscrapers and airplanes, and to some extent, the automobile (mass produced).
>The British Empire gave the world steam engines,
ancient rome
>railroads,
yes
>modern medicine
france
> and hospitals,
exist since the bronze age
modern hospitals, as in, modern medicine and hospitals, with "modern" modifying both medicine and hospitals
And the steam engine went nowhere useful in the ancient world.
It's a ridiculous parody of an actual empire in that while the corruption is as bad as Ancient Rome, we haven't actually conquered anything.
>The British Empire gave the world steam engines, railroads, modern medicine and hospitals, and a host of other things.
yeah it sucks but oh well
>The US also gave the world skyscrapers and airplanes, and to some extent, the automobile (mass produced).
ok you've convinced me the US is worse
>with "modern" modifying both medicine and hospitals
France has germ theory, the invention of antibiotics and of vaccines, meanwhile george washington was bled to death by his doctors
>and hospitals
modern hospitals were a gradual and incremental improvement, mostly happened in WW1 and the spanish flue, it happened in all involved countries at once, england of course being excempt from having any WW1 frontline or need for frontline hospitals
>And the steam engine went nowhere useful in the ancient world.
the modern steam engine was patented by james watt then, a scottish man
Scottish is British
>Scottish is British
Both were gay and Jewish
Lmao
Argentina is not an ally of America. Here we love and praise China and Russia but we will never admit it publicly because otherwise the IMF and America would sanction us and commercially disadvantage us in such a way that we would be a thousand times poorer and more miserable than we are now
We have too much debt with the IMF, western banks and we depend too much on the IMF that we cannot afford to contradict them
All empires have contributed something in some science and advancement of humanity but in general the Anglo-Saxon empire was the one that brought together most of the great inventions and ideas after the fall of the Roman Empire
Programming languages will last longer than US empire.
the american one as far as modern culture is concerned
most of the cultural institutions that the british created were wiped away by americans and soviets

Is that Trudeau?
Clarkson was right
everything the scots achieved they were "British," and everything they fuck up, well, then they're just scots
>problem?
yes, did your family have any say in any of the decisions your rulers made you're talking about? I'm honored to be in the presence of such an important person as yourself, who's eminent family was there at the pivital moments of history alongside the british royals and their court jews
no one asked you

You have via Soft Power.
It's the big word everyone uses now, but you were practicing it before the established powers had a word to define clearly what it was.
Generating influence and control without actually massacring the population (at least not immediately).
That's an Australian from a film
>The American Empire
lol you're counting nato, that's embarssing. You don't even have a single ally, let alone hundreds of countries in the 'unofficial empire' begging to join.
It's the opposite, any fucks ups are someone else's fault usually Westminster any success is sheerly down to Scotland.
yeah, that's exactly what he meant. surprisingly many modern accouterments of daily living originated there, but no one gives them credit directly for it
made an alternative version if you want it since showing native americans under the UK flag doesn't really make sense
